    Basingtoke FC

    Ok, so this my first attempt to write a story, it'll probably result in me rage-deleting the save, but here goes! So, how did I get here? Last thing I knew I was working in my dead-end 9-5 job and now here I am listening to the chairman of Basingstoke FC lay out my new role. “Do you want me to...

    My Manchester United don't seem to create chances

    I need help with my Manchester United save. I seem to be having problems creating chances. (Quite similar to real life!). We’re predicted to finish third but lie 13th after five games. I started off the season quite well, drawing with Liverpool and winning away at Arsenal, but my results have...

    Query about conceding shots on goal

    Hi I have recently started a save with Manchester United and I have started the season with a 12 match unbeaten run. Despite this, on two occasions, we have surrendered 3-1 leads to draw 3-3. This was against Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, but we are also allowing opposition to have a lot of...

    Starting a save with Reading

    Ive tried starting a save with Reading as they are a team I follow. The trouble is everytime I do, I can't decide what tactic to use. They're not exceptional at anything and not horrible at anything either. They are just a hard working team with a big target man in the shape of Pavel Pogrebnyak...

    Tactical error or game glich?

    I cannot complain about my defence as we keep clean sheets all the time but going forward my strikers seem to think the aim is to hit the goalkeeper! I want to know if this is a game glitch or if im doing something wrong?! I'm using Manchester United in a diamond formation: De Gea (GK, def)...

    Allowing too many shots away from home

    I'm in my second season at Manchester United and I'm finding that when I go away from home all sorts of teams are getting in 10+ shots, inevitably leading to draws and defeats. I'm playing a narrow 4-2-3-1, with wingers pushed in. Rigid & counter Short passing, express themselves, push...

    Drawing too many games with man united

    Hi I hope someone can help me. I'm playing a save with Manchester United and I seem to have a recurring problem. We regularly have more shots than the opposition and still end up drawing games. The typical scenario is playing someone as mediocre as Hull at home, we have 25 shots, 12 on target...

    Has there been a new update that's changed the AI?

    Hi I have been having reasonable success on this game for the first time lately, but i started a save with Manchester United where I played a simple 4-2-3-1 formation with a balanced and counter attacking set up and I find that I can have loads of shots in the game and still end up losing. I...

    Having trouble winning away from home with Manchester United

    I can't seem to win away from home! I'm playing as Manchester United at home we are beating everyone, but away, we seem to concede to many chances and as such lose to many games. I play a 4-4-2 with advanced wingers, Fluid, Attacking, Press More, attacking down both flanks. my two CM's are...

    Im winning, but not as i'd like...

    Hi, it seems a bit strange but ive just started a season with Manchester United, and with help from awalker14, we are winning more often than not. My problem is that (and i know im being padantic) is that we are winning games, but allowing the opposition too many shots on goal. My worry is...

    Roles for Rooney and RVP

    Ive just started another game with MAnchester United and i dont know what roles to play RVP and Rooney in. Im playing a 4-4-2 with wingers pushed up, my first instinct is to have Wayne playing in the Deep Lying Forward role and RVP as a Trequarista. Im also open to the theory that on FM 13 its...
