Well the majority of the games I played with my "B side", the last games I played my first side and score a decent amount of goals, even that 1 draw was with a rotated squad.
From Domzale onwards I'm pretty much playing my first squad, so it's getting a lot better. Like I said, Celje was played with the rotated squad again and that was a draw again.
would have preferred a win oh well
very nice
FM should have more banners around their stadiums - like banners with the names of favourite players, maybe even with regen faces on them, other than just a banner or two with the team name
>>66402367
This illustrates it fucking perfectly. Play the "B Team" and fail to one up them with 5(!) clear cut chances.
3rd and 4th choice strikers aren't as good and more importantly the midfield doesn't score nearly as much goals as the 1st team that has two very good blooter generators.
>>66402489
"[Manager] out" if the team is doing badly
images of a legendary player's face if he comes back to the stadium with another club
I guess insulting slogans about your rivals would be too far, but maybe a banner with the score of the last result between you if your team won by a lot
>>66402558
That would be really cool desu. Pity I play on 2d and wouldn't get to see that stuff

he's not actually good or anything, but I play favourites for guys born in dob
How much do you think a player with 20 in every other poacher attribute would score if I gave him 1 finishing and 1 composure?
>>66403230
maybe 1 goal/3 games? I'm not really sure, he'd probably get some garbage goals by picking off bad passes and rolling it into an empty net, but 1 composure really fucks with a player

Welp, I guess I'll find out later.

Better pray he gets somewhat faster, at least in Acc. Pace is very costly in CA for CBs, perhaps being able to play as a FB will help alleviate the cost.

>>66403814
shit man, and you were clearly the better team even after all that stuff
brutal
>>66403809
How's that tactic working, still using it?
You're losing really badly though. I don't know, try rotating out the players with poor form, team talks, and yell at them a lot during games and half times...? Switch up tactics for a game or two, I dunno, you can always power trough it and hope you'll start winning again lel.
>>66403894
i used it for the stuttgart and the dortmund games as well as that game vs Mainz but since then i've been flip-flopping between my old 4-3-2-1 and 4-2-3-1
both of those haven't really worked as you can see
all of my players are in poor form man :( i guess i'll see if i can switch out most of my team and see if anything improves
>>66403963
Talk to them as well, Hold a team meeting. Did you mostly use the same first 11 for all of the games?
>>66404024
a lot of the time yeah i used a pretty static team
6 players just complained at me because i ignored someone who asked for more gametime and i told them i'd play him a few times
we're 3-0 up in this game now with an entirely rotated team using a 4-2-3-1 which is interesting but i'm not going to complain
brought on the star striker at half time and he scored within minutes
ah fuck they just scored time to lose 4-3
>>66404024
aaaaaaaaaaaand they scored again but it was disallowed thank god
>>66404067
Lmao.
Keep rotating the players that are being shit. If he's in poor form there's no point letting him play and continue being shit. Don't go back on your promises too much, the morale will suffer and then you'll have everyone complaining and the squad harmony will go to shit.
Also, YELL at your players if they're doing badly. Aggressive or Assertive. Even if you're just 1-0 up, YELL at those fuckers until they have a safe lead and they stop fucking about.
>>66403809
mate, I wrote a long post about you last night and just as I was about to post, I lost my connection and did not get it back for hours so I just went to sleep.
I don't want to post the entire damn thing again but there were some things I wanted to say:
You are playing with an attacking mentality. This already means that your players position themselves high up the pitch and play wide.
Your instructions are totally overkill. You had "play much higher" on, turn that to "a bit higher" at most, or just turn it off completely. Also, play much wider is not a good idea with an attacking formation that has AMR/AML and two WB - you are already playing wide as fuck. The instruction does not even make you play through the wings, it just means you spread out more.
To add to that, WBa and "hit early crosses" does not go well together. WBa need you to build up your attack with an element of patience, you must not just hoof it into th e box because the WBa need a few seconds to push up gradually and be an additional attacker. Switch to "look for overlap" to make use of them.
Also, when you play WBa, you are weak to one thing: opponents exploiting the space between the WBa. What you want to prevent is your opponents spamming long balls to the wings immediately after winning the ball. You should try to press your opponent/close down more so that they cannot get off a long ball immediately, giving your WBa just enough time to track back.
If all of this does not work, try playing with two DM (one regista and one DMs).
There was also something about your player roles that I didnt like (particularly your AMC and your two MC) but I dont remember.
>>66404152
this works if your players are not performing, are complacent or just are not doing enough.
it is totally counterproductive if your team has 0 morale, no self esteem and are nervous. you are just going to make them believe that they cannot win anymore. if you see that your players are nervous, try to encourage them as much as possible, and tell them they were unlucky if they were.
>>66404157
>>66404152
gimme 30 mins i'll be back to respond to this and play more FM thanks for the advice
>>66403809
I'd recommend watching some games in extended or parts in full, to see what's actually going wrong.
The stats don't tell everything. For example, a key element of success in my team is how often they intercept the opponents passes, but that's poorly reflected in game stats (there are a variety of factors that can play into an opponent's pass completion %).
I realized by watching for a while that I had a key player who was a beast at intercepting passes when he was on, but when he was off he was a flaccid dick and the opponents were dictating the game. Eventually I realized that he was a hot and cold player and had too much impact on whether my tictac succeded or failed, so I sold him off and shelled out money for a more aggressive and reliable player in that position. Very little of that will show up intuitively in the stats.

>http://strikerless.com/2016/02/19/the-hartman-doctrine-why-the-hairdryer-treatment-works-surprisingly-well/
Tell them they're shit regardless. I do it, it works. When we're on a losing streak I yell at them anyway, telling them that I want to see much better performances. This isn't real life.
>>66404157
>WBa and "hit early crosses" does not go well together
it's hard to generalize like that. It depends on a lot of things. Pic related I'm using WB's on support with 'hit early crosses' AND 'cut inside' and it...just works. WB's cut inside and draw defenders on them, they pass and pull out wide into the empty space without the ball and get a pass back and put in the cross.
Also. Individual instructions>team instructions
>>66404186
>this works if your players are not performing, are complacent or just are not doing enough.
That's what happened though. He had a strong start of the season and then a slump despite playing the same guys with the same tactics as before. They got over confident, complacant or w/e.
Also, I've read this >>66404318 and it's working for me.
>>66404409
And this guy literally has the PPM's for it. Cut's inside, plays double passes. 19 app, 5 assists, 5 POM's, avg rating of 7.7 even though he's not particularly good.
Also, my history broke in game somehow. I thought it was a bug after I started a new save to check something out and loaded an old save from that new save, but it's not fixing itself after a (forced) restart.
I can only see the history for players from 2018/2019 onwards, lel.
>>66404651
Literally not showing all of the years in player's career. It's like I started a new game in 2018/19 somehow.
>>66404409
Well yeah, it can work, but our British friend here seems to be new at the game and you'd generally not advise someone who plays with WBa to use that instruction, just like you would not tell a player in LLM to use very fluid tactics (even though it can work)
>>66404753
That bug happens from time to time. It's what you get for €50 :^)
What's the lowest league not classed LLM, The Championship?
>>66404157
alright let's see how this goes
this is how i've set shit up now - sound good? i'll give it a go for a few games
>>66404215
will give this a go too and see how my team play thanks
>>66404761
He copied my stuff and it appeared to be working for him until that slump.
>>66404775
>implying I paid 50€
:^)
I think I know how I caused it though. I started a new save to check the status of some clubs at the start of the game. After I was done I loaded my old save from that new save and since then I had this bug (I think, at least)
wowzers at least i'm not bremen
>>66404791
LLM means different things to different people. some will claim that "true LLM" starts below the conference premier
but sure, that's a fair statement I guess, L1 generally doesn't have a ton of buying power
>>66404802
putting Kacar in the AMC position kills me inside. dont do this, he's a destructive player and not cut out for the role. put holtby there please, and kacar as the DLPd.
I'd leave out the "higher tempo" - again, your tempo is already high.
Switch Adler to Sweeper Keeper on support - you play a high line and you'll want your GK to chill at the edge of your box when you attack.
put jung in a more stationary role imo, like CMs. this is up to you though.
also, dont forget that your team is just not good - Hamburg suck dick. dont expect more than getting into the top 7.
>>66404853
That's what I was thinking, I thought League 1 wasn't but, the spending difference between League 1 and 2 is pretty minimal whereas the Championship boosts it up quite a bit. Thanks.
>>66404932
oh don't worry i was just moving players round randomly, he's the DLPd at the moment
suspensions to my CD's mean i have to play jung at centre back for this game so he'll be back at CM or DM soon
will do the sweeper keeper thing
I'm watching the actual game now and it seems like we've been on the back foot all game, with any real chances coming straight from a counterattack - i'm unsure whether that's actually good or not seeing as i'm having none of the possession really
>>66404932
reminds me of kacar playing as a forward for the serbia u20s (u21s?) that one time, kek
fugg they went 1-0 up from a decent run through my two centre backs
guess there's not much i can do there other than curse my luck eh
>>66405085

Where is the loyalty?
If your contract runs out do you stay on some kind of rolling contract until you either resign or get replaced?
>>66405141
Yes. It's a bit stupid.
>>66405003
no, that is definitely bad in a home game against average opposition.
feel free to discard my tactics if they dont work for you, I dont like them too much myself.
but let me suggest one more thing: HSV are bad, quality wise you are in the bottom half of the league - and you are trying to use a very attacking formation with an attacking mentality.
attacking mentality does mean that your team is really trying to just kill of your opponent by long periods of constant pressure, like Bayern did against Juventus. how are your team going to do this against most teams of the league? In home games where you feel that you are the favorite, you can do control, but attacking is not the right mentality for you in my opinion.
what you should really try to do is to find something that can grind out results - play a defensive mentality away from home, and counter mentality at home. pick a formation that has its strengths in defending - something like a 4-1-4-1 with DM, a 4-2DM-2-2 or a 4-4-1-1.
I mean, think about your formation. You must think of AMR/AML as strikers, they do almost nothing in defence other than bully the full backs when they have the ball. your wings are pretty much wide open. can you imagine a shit tier side like, I dont know, Crystal Palace play with 3 players up front? because that is pretty much what you are doing.
seriously, try a more defensive formation (anything with two lines of four and one or two strikers), use attacking wingers on the flanks, tell your team to play more direct football and to pass into space and punish opponents on the break.
since your team is shit, most teams will try to play dominant football against you. you need to take advantage of that fact and exploit the spaces that they leave for you to break.
>>66404791
Considering the championship has roughly the same financial strength as other tier 1 leagues, it's definitely not close.
IMO in the big 5 you have to start below the second division, outside of that the second tier is alright, and it absolute shit leagues (Gibraltar/Andorra etc.) even tier 1 is alright as long as your goal is continental success.
>>66405172
i'll give that a go next game
it's just all a bit confusing since I've actually done quite well so far in the first 14 games of the season or so and now it has all gone to shit
even got a 1-0 against dortmund that i'm quite happy with
>>66405130
This lad. Medicore as fuck but he was homegrown and a supporter of the club so I made him 1st choice RB. Now he's a club legend and still only 23.

>>66405172
alright having a go with a 4-1-4-1 now
what kind of midfield pairing should i have for the 2 central mids?
>>66405558
CMs-CMa
Or BBMs-APs
>>66405558
have one player that likes to attack a lot, like a CMa. have one more playmaking player, perhaps an APs or RPMs.
>>66405579
>>66405558
BBMs - APs is also a good idea by the way.
I'd advise you to play a DLPd in your DM position, a purely destructive player would be a bit of a waste.
>>66405556
How much do you spend on salaries?
More questions for you guys
never really bothered with youth stuff before - should i be offering the top 5 guys contracts? looks like they could potentially be solid players for the team one day but i have no idea how to make sure they actually reach that potential
>>66405608
>>66405579
will do the BBMs APs along with a dlpd then, cheers
should the striker be a complete forward seeing as he's alone or what
What should I train him as? He keeps getting taller.
Guess the score. I'm getting proper pissed right about now, especially because I won this 4-1 before the game crashed.
>>66405556

Thank god buddy, I need you for another year, the little slovak fucker doesn't score much.
I lost 1-2 because my left back got a red card and gave up a pen.
I begged him every 10 minutes to stay calm, I told him at HT to stay calm. I didnt have another left back in the squad, both possible replacemens were out.
I had to play a kid after the red + pen (which was extremely stupid, the ball was going out and he fouled, got a second yellow and was sent off) and he gave up the other goal.
Feels so bad

Walcott is playing the season of his life for me right now, but is clearly passed it, not sure how much of it is his opposite winger partner and how much is the residue of his former greatness.
Considering keeping him around, but not sure.

if anything, it would've been his fantastic hair.
Thanks for the opinions guy who flopped so hard he couldn't cut it for Toronto and wound up playing half his career in Eastern Europe/Asia
>>66408311
Although annoyingly people are only enforcing his retarded opinions by going "HURRR Tom Huddlestone playing for Hull in Championship, Dier playing for Spurs and challenging for EPL title!!!" which is the dumbest judge of talent.
I quite rate Huddlestone and he is too good for Championship but Dier definitely a better choice.

Manager in saying something nice about his own player shocker.
If you're not watching Rohan Ricketts melt down on twitter right now you're really missing out
>>66409332
You ain't got a scooby do mate.
Dele Alli is unironically the best young midfielder in the world. Definitely better than Pogba was at that age
If I use decent tactics with a shit team and slowly build up an amazing youth squad and setup, will I eventually become a good team?
I mean if tactically I'm playing solid defensive football, surely once my players get better and better I'll eventually start winning games far more without actually fiddling with tactics?
>>66409578
if Poch leaves soon i see him going to shit quite quickly. relatively speaking of course.
>>66409933
Unless United decide against Mou, I can't see him going anywhere just yet
>>66409962
what about Real Madrid? i might be mistaken, but i thought that he had a buyout clause in his own managerial contract. god only knows how long Perez will let Zizou hang around before he's jettisoned unceremoniously like the others.
>>66410009
I don't think he is high profile enough nor does he have a connection to RM. At least for next season, I'd be very surprised if he's not Spuds manager.
>>66409728
>win without fiddling with tactics
On a domestic level sure, but late into the continental places where everybteam could realistically win your tactics and decisions will be important.
>>66410047
i wasn't talking about him getting poached at the end of this year. barring some ridiculous losing streak on Real Madrid's part, i was more speculating that after next season that Poch could be plucked.
>going up against three EL and one CL team
RIP in piss morale and fitness
>>66410105
I think it's inevitable he will United or Real Madrid manager in the future
>>66410056
Not worried about that at the moment, I'm nowhere near continental competitions...
Just plugged a simple 4-4-2 into my team and suddenly we're winning games, frustrating.
>>66410124
on the other hand, you'll probably get enough money to pay your team's wages for half a year

That set me back 11mil total, they wanted ~20mil at first, technically we're still in the 18/19 season I guess. There's another lad joining us in and that's that since I'm down to less than a million transfer budget.
>>66422254
I always struggle to find good LB's and LM's, especially Slovenian ones.
>>66422263
Well it's kinda the first season with locked budget. Yeah, I had to go back into the db because there was no extra time for Cup matches and to check out a few things in advanced mode. Also, noticed an issue: I put a rule for non-EU players and Yugo... wasn't in EU (at least not until January 2017). Had to change that too.
Anyway, not like Triglav has any money desu.
>>66422177
Can cross, has teamwork and some workrate. What's the catch?
>>66422293
>What's the catch?
He's a "wonderkid". Honestly he doesn't look like he's worth 11 million € especially considering that was my entire budget, but he was the first wonderkid I found and in a position I was trying to fill so on top of that so I snapped him up.
Natural fitness is kinda low, so is his positioning considering I'm going to play him as a wide midfielder and not as a winger (it means he'll probably be covering the most ground in the team along with his buddy on the right). His finishing could be a bit better too since my WM's get a lot of shots on goals.
Although I am making a new formations with wingers, I'll see how that goes though.
>>66422337
>He's a "wonderkid".
Scout says he might be among the best of his generation amrite? Sounds good then. Good luck.
>>66422346
Regarding wingers. Sometimes they work too well to the point they're broken. I had teams where my RW and LW had the most assists and goals on the team. They'd cross the ball to the far posts and the other guy would slot it in. Literally 50% of my goals were like that. Other times they just do jack shit when I try to replicate it.

>Regarding wingers. Sometimes they work too well to the point they're broken. I had teams where my RW and LW had the most assists and goals on the team. They'd cross the ball to the far posts and the other guy would slot it in. Literally 50% of my goals were like that.
Reason why I moved back to FM15. I hate FM16's match engine.
>Pic unrelated, which one should I send on loan and watch him not develop?
A loan can work if the player will bust his ass off on and off the pitch. Send the most professional, ambitious and determined one on loan. Keep the shitter closer so you can yell at him because he complains about training.

Lel, they came in with a bid, I got it up to 5.5mil but to made a non-negotiable end-of-season transfer. They refused but I had the ability to send the offer anyway.
They seem to have accepted and my board went for it despite me negotiating the offer in the fist place.

Reminds me that the Serbs behind the Yugo db I vastly edited did a Czechoslovak db (as well as good old red soviet Russia). From what I've understood through Google translate, Viktoria Plzeň completely crushes the league even after 30 seasons of simulation.

>>66424605

The game is broken. In a 100 years simulation of the vanilla FM16 game, PSG wins:
>6 CL
>5 Club WC
>70 Ligue 1 (!)
>9 Europa League
>3 UEFA Super Cup
>39 Coupe de France
>34 League Cup
>56 French Supercup (Trophée des Champions)
Includes their trebles up until the beginning of the 2015 season, but still, that's ridiculous domination. AI can't into club development or squad building.

>that's ridiculous domination. AI can't into club development or squad building.
For every person that says this there is another who says how ridiculous it is that Accringotn Stanley have made it to the EPL and won it on their save.
Yeah some teams dominate hard but you have to remember they have to program a club with at least relatively accurate data at the time of making the game and its only logical to not program a club to take random nosedives but to most likely maintain a steady course with just a slight chance of random events (takeovers/crippling debt due to terrible management/fincial backing withdrawn) effecting them. I don't think its unreasonable for them to have programmed PSG to be a big European club on the rise with lots of money and a squad that can easily dominate Ligue 1 because that is exactly where they are right now.
>>66424951
Did they also replace their names with a message that says "Don't steal"?

>>66425013
Jut for the banter I'd do it. Sounds most excellent.
>>66424997
My point is they are at a place right now where they have a massive, massive edge over the rest of the teams in the league and the game is programmed to be accurate for present day and to experience reasonable stability with just a few randomised ups and downs for a few teams since anything else will see a completely crazy world develop after just a small period of time. As a result of this PSGs domination is completely reasonable unless you want many more random events programmed into FM.
>>66424878
Yes, surprisingly. They're flopping badly now though, probably because of playing on two (or more) fronts.
>>66424878
>>66425064
They got this regen that's just slotting in goals for them.
>>66425094
nice, I remember having seen GOATs spawn there a few times, only fair that they got to keep at least one of them
>>66424878

In my experience, Scotland gets a wildly disproportionate number of tycoons in FM.

>>66425124
>only fair that they got to keep at least one of them
Yeah, not for long. He's wanted by several different clubs. I'd buy him too if he was way cheaper.
>>66425145
They haven't, they're even in debt (a few million).
>>66425043
Ah but I get your point, but I still find it to be a stretch to have such an absurd domination. The game isn't perfect.
>>66425389
>>66425043
I even find it more likely that a club lucks a league or something at some point rather than having a single club win 75% of the country's trophies for a century.
>>66425418
but that happened, it wasn't 100%
like the britanon was saying, it's not really meant to predict accurately decades into the future (how could it? there will probably be wars or rule changes or matches on the moon or whatever), it's meant to be a crude extrapolation based on the current state of affairs
and PSG are currently what, 22 points clear in the league? creating a system whereby they win it 70% of the time seems about right, by that measure
>>66425481
>but that happened, it wasn't 100%
>it's meant to be a crude extrapolation based on the current state of affairs
Never said so and I still find it too much.
>and PSG are currently what, 22 points clear in the league?
It's the first season PSG has dominated this much. If you create a system based on this season, that would be the odd measure.

Min. release fee is 4.1 million. I would play his as a deep lying playmaker on defence or an advanced play maker (both on support and attack depending on the situation).
Is he worth the money? I'm only worried about his positioning, but how important really is balance for this role?
