I'm playing at 1920x1080, but I can't fit the match stats pop up on the screen without it getting in the way. I'm playing on FMT. Is there a way to make the pitch smaller so I can fit some of the pop ups on without hindering the view at all? I've tried to zoom out to 95% and 85% but that didn't...

Anyone know how to make the teams abide by 15 home grown players?

So I just got banned from the SI forums for calling them out on this, so clearly it touched a nerve with them. This is not acceptable and we should be annoyed about this announcement, and I'm going to explain why. This time last year they released FMC for the PS Vita, they have since abandoned...

I didn't have the best of times with FM last year, but this year I wanted things to be a little different. I don't want a plug and play tactic and for my main saves I want to play legit. I am currently playing as Arsenal. Here is my first team squad: I am playing a 4231 and I want to add a...

In a similar fashion to MANUMAD's Man Utd thread, thought it was worth doing an Arsenal one. Arsenal are a great starting team in this years FM for the following reasons: Big transfer budget. You get £47m for just choosing the qualify for champions league option. This can go up to £61m for...

I currently have 15 players unhappy with training, all from the Under 21 squad and all because the work load is too high. The first team are happy/content with the current work load. In most teams, in the premier league anyway, it's not often that the under 21 squad will train with the first...

Hi all, This bothered me last year a little as well, I personally can't grasp the idea of the way the formation/tactic is "learnt". So last year I do believe it took around 12 games for your team to become familiar with your tactics. I presume it's around the same again this year? But my...

For those who don't know, if you go into Preferences, interface, Skin colours. You can change the stat rating for what you would call excellent, good, and average. You can set colours for each as well as a colour for below average. Now the default setup is: Excellent: 16 Good: 11 Average: 6...

Although I understand the basics of this topic, I am also a little unsure on a few things and would like some clarification on a few things, for you you to tell me if I am wrong. So both CA (current ability) and PA (potential ability) are out of 200, or for PA it can be a minus number. In...

As above. I doubt it is possible, a yes or no answer would be enough.

Since the Under 21's follow the first teams general training, which is on very high for me. The under 21's are all unhappy about the high workload (none of them have individual). Is there not a way to have them doing different general training or set their workload to lower but still have the...

I've had some trouble with FM this year, not really gotten into it as much as last years game. So I've decided for a bit of fun to start a save where I am using cheats/the in game editor. Nothing too serious, just messing around really. But the in game editor does not let you change how...

If so how is the performance on yours? edit: As that is what I have and it's horrible.

I just started playing again after some time out with the game. I'm back and I'm having a few issues with tactics still. I can't seem to get my striker many chances in games and lots of my shots are off target and long shots. Here is my current tactic (ignore the injuries for now): The only...

I'm usually pretty good at the pre-season stuff, getting the formation familiar, getting the players match fit and ready for the start of the season. But for some reason on FM14 the formation familiarity doesn't appear to go up much, if at all. What I usually do is as follows: 1. I go and...
