overrides ; pick player, or sittuation first ?

I know it sounds as if i'm totally stupid, but : if i want a certain player to play in a certain situation (and of course formation), let's say 1st and medium in my 25 to 50, do i pick my player first, or the situation first ?

Better look stupid for a few minutes, than being ignorant for the rest of my life :D

you can't set an override like that, it doesn't go by situation only formation so when you put a player in a formation using override they will always play that position in that formation unless they are too fatigued

Not true.

In the Overrides area, FIRST select the situation(s) you want (field position, downs, yardage) by checking or unchecking the boxes, THEN replace any players in the diagram below with the players you want on the field in the above situations.
