Have you guys ever had a player get sent off for something questionable and had the FA rescind the ban? Seems like every time I have a player sent off the ref was actually right which seems quite unrealistic.

1: holiday, and I'm in the manic phase of my manic-depressice relationship with FM
2: I wanted an italian team with good academy
How do I make my dudes not long pass into the middle of nowhere to avoid giving the opposition possession? I give them instructions all matches to retain possession and make shorter passing
I can understand them making shitty passes but stop this bad meme please, and that's not getting into them not passing when they're in deep doodoo and there's backup nearby
>>69568563
Gentle reminder that miles want this game to be indistinguishable with real football in 5 years.
My pet peeve is when your player accelerates towards a loose ball after a set piece, but an opposing players will get there first so he deaccelerates and lets the opponent walk unchallenged into a 1v1 with the keeper.
>>69568563
well possible issues
-the tempo you ask your players to play at is too high for their comfort so they sperg out
-you have too many players in static roles so they don't move enough and it's easy for the opposition to pick them off->the player in possession won't have viable options to pass to
-the distances between players are too long, results same as above
-your midfield's off the ball is shit so they don't know how to make themselves available
-also AFAIK the combo of retain possession and shorter passing makes the range in which the players look for pass very short, and if they don't see a pass within that range, they're likely to just hoof it. so with your instructions when they don't have anyone within 5 feet to pass to, they become bewildered
-combination of the above
>>69568641
great feedback, thanks a lot bud
>>69568031
The thing I've never understood about this bug is why did they feel the need to program in a player's tonsils when you would only see them when a bug occurred? Do you think they have programmed in the rest of a players innards?

I was thinking about starting new game and change the club everytime I win the championship.

you can't really defend crosses on fm16, you can limit the damage by stopping the crosses from happening in the first place maybe

Yes its pretty boring because you have no incentive to think long term so you just spend all your money on players and throwing around ridiculous wages, achieve what you came to do and leave after a small handful of years to repeat it over again at another club.

Gee I wonder who's behind this hire.
Apparently "work it into the box" and "shoot less" translates into "kick the ball to the fans"
Apparently "mark tighter" and "get stuck in" means "stand there with your thumbs in your asses and look at the striker running past you"
Apparently "retain possession" means "give it to the opposition striker as soon as you get the ball"
I really wish this game would let me do more than give them a stale "this is a match we're supposed to be winning". Will Miles ever put flogging into the game?

Its only Kante so far. Sure he is a big loss but they've turned a nice profit and if they manage to keep everyone else by maybe putting some of that money into retaining their other big players then I'd say they did well. Everyone figured they would lose like 4 or 5 of their first team.

Theyre broke, proud and completely unrealistic when it comes to expected results because of past glory, so the sacking is pretty realistic.
They just announced that theyre replacing their current manager with Deila next season, and because of this theyve got some investment into the club.
Theyve a pretty amazing fan group, could probably rival alot of british support. But the atmosphere surrounding the club is fucking toxic, they could be relegated this season which would be hillarious since theyre opening a new stadium next season.
