    Manually Swapping Players During Match...Worth it?

    In older versions of FM, you could have, for example, a right wing inside forward swap with your advanced forward using player instructions. In FM 14, you can't. Is it worth trying to replicate this by manually swapping them occasionally during the match? Will that drag the opposing center...

    Team cannot set quick players free...help!

    I'm playing as Arsenal about 4 seasons in. I have very quick wing forwards (Schurrle, Walcott, a regen), and I want to develop a tactic that revolves around Ozil pinging through balls into the channels for the inside forwards to race onto and get 1v1 shots off against the opposition keeper...

    Best tactic OM season 3

    My best 4 attackers are Andre Ayew, Josep Ilicic, Hulk, and Loic Remy. I already have a 4-3-3 with a winger that worked quite well last season, but it plays Ilicic at inside forward, which he doesn't really have the pace for. He was also injured a lot last season so I'd shift Hulk to AML and...

    Skin custom colors won't save

    I'm trying to edit the colors for the different levels of attributes, but whenever I hit confirm and look at a player, the old colors return. Is anyone else having this problem? I have use skin cache unchecked and reload skin on confirm checked so that I can use my logo pack.

    Yann M'Vila is the new Vinnie Jones

    Three straight reds in under 10 minutes in 4 games. I'm not even playing him as a hyper-aggressive anchor man. I'm playing him as a deep-lying playmaker. Seriously, it's like he doesn't even want to play for me.

    Wing Adv Playmakers/Multiple Adv Playmakers

    I'm playing as Inter and I've got Renato Augusto and Coutinho in their primes, as well as aging guys like Sneidjer and Iniesta. I'm currently playing a 4-2-3-1 with 3 AMCs, using Sneidjer as a Adv Playmaker Attack in the center spot, with Augusto and Coutinho as attacking midfielders on either...

    Three strikers help?

    I recently switched to a new team and I'm having trouble coming up with a good formation. The previous left me in the relegation zone with 8 strikers, no wingers or wide midfielders, and mostly defensive midfielders. So I'm thinking the formation should be something along these lines. I've...

    Spanish B Team promotion

    I'm playing as Villarreal in 2022. My Villarreal B team got dumped out of the liga adelante fairly early on in my game, and has never come back through promotion, despite being well stocked with young talent. It's getting frustrating, since they are not allowed non-EU players at all, and I...

    Getting the best out of this wonderkid

    I bought this wonderkid from Shakhtar, he's been scoring goals for fun (63 in 83 professional appearances). How would you work him into a single striker formation? I tried working him into some cup games in my current 4-3-3 wingers formation and he didn't do very well. OL (where he's on loan...

    Japanese Regens?

    Does the game create Japanese regens for Japanese teams, or just regens in other leagues with dual Japanese/etc citizenship? My board frequently recommends Japanese teams to become feeder clubs, and I was wondering if there was any hope to have them create regens in the future?
