    UPDATE 13.1.3 RELEASED for Football Manager 2013

    I managed about 13 shots against Arsenal which was quite good considering I was playing quite defensive. I have noticed though what they do need to sort out is job security, I was untouchable up until the end of season then it dropped back to secure. How can you go from untouchable straight...

    UPDATE 13.1.3 RELEASED for Football Manager 2013

    Well after spending 5 huors on creating different tactics at weekend finally I have 3 that seem to be promising. Managed to beat Arsenal on opening day of season 201 with my Blackburn team, they only managed 1 shot on target which ironically went in but at least I restricted them to long range...

    UPDATE 13.1.3 RELEASED for Football Manager 2013

    Well managed to turn my team around when I got home from work, ended up finishing 7th in prem with Blackburn, since this patch I had to create a new set of tactics from scratch as I kept conceding too many. Now gone with 2 up front I ended the season strongly. Conclusion though its not the...

    UPDATE 13.1.3 RELEASED for Football Manager 2013

    Am I the only one encountering issues in defence since this update? Before the update with my Blackburn team I was sitting in 4th place happily, having beat the likes of Man U 2-0, Liverpool 2-1 and Arsenal 1-0, also getting a nice 1-1 draw away to city however since the update my defence now...

    Fm13 Possession tactic discussion thread by Raikan007

    I have played a few games now into first season, got my midfielders, wingers and forward on short passing, defenders on mixed and full backs on direct, this seems to be working fine at moment and just signed Adryan so hoping he will fit into my team asap. Used mainly tips from this whole thread...

    Fm13 Possession tactic discussion thread by Raikan007

    I should have posted everything in one post but one thing I have noticed is my defending from long balls, my defenders seem to end up all over the place. Is it best to set team to play offsides if pushing up or would I benefit from dropping my defensive line to normal but on the border of push up?

    Fm13 Possession tactic discussion thread by Raikan007

    I ended up setting my centre backs to mixed, my full backs to direct, both centre mids to short with my more attacking one to longshots sometimes and to roam, my wingers on mixed, my playmaker on short along with my striker. So far ive been getting about 80% completion and have been creating...

    Fm13 Possession tactic discussion thread by Raikan007

    I have decided to try a possession tactic with Blackburn and so far I have played 1 friendly, against Bury which the score ended in 1-1. I had 84% pass completion with 1 ccc. However I noticed my 2 central defenders seem to have played the most passes and they were mainly in their own half, so...

    Trying to find good cheap players for Blackburn

    Started as Blackburn and they dont have much to start with so had to sell couple players to boost up to £1.7 mil. So far signed Vanden Borre on a free but looking for a cheapish left winger and hopefully a central midfielder thats comfortable as an advanced playmaker, anyone have any ideas?
