Anyone got any advice on how to achieve the CMs (Silva and De Bruyne) playing the way they do in real life? I'm creating a tactical based on Pep's city at the moment and this is the only position I'm really struggling to nail down. Was thinking maybe an RPM or an AP in the CM strata coupled with...

Ive been trying for the last few days to recreate Pep's philosophy at Bayern this year, after using Bophonet's tactic to limited effect. Basicslly, what I want to achieve is 3 tactics that will enable the user to switch between tactics as an when they feel necessary, similarly to what Pep does...

Been creating a tactic based around the 4-2-3-1 that Klopp played at Dortmund, including the high press, quick attacking and interplay. Could do with some help testing it as I'm struggling to find the time to play FM, and I want to upload it at some point. Would anyone be willing to help test...

First season at Sevilla, need a RPM who would improve the first team. Got 24m to spend, any suggestions? had a bid accepted for Dani Parejo is he worth it. (18m)?

Thinking of starting a save with Athletic Bilbao, any basque players to sign?

Managed to sign him for Brentford somehow! Looking at his stats, he's very good for an 18 year old technically, but his work rate is very poor. Anyway that I can improve that in training/by tutoring?

Looking for signings for Derby in the first season. I'm unfamiliar with most championship players who are class on this game, so any help would be appreciated. looking for a LB, CB, winger and striker. I'm using LFC marshalls transfer update.

Fancy a new save but struggling to think of a team suitable to what I want. Would like them to be based in England, around championship/league 1 and to have a good fan base. Preferably to be challenging for promotion but id happily take a team fighting relegation. I don't want Leeds as I've...

Just finished my 2nd season, need some help on who to sign. i want James Rodriquez to play as a SS, are there any other options in case I can't sign him? I need a ST, and am thinking of Lewandowski, but I can also sign Suarez. Which one? Finally, I need a winger to play as an IF. I want Reus...

Was appointed manager of City in December (when we were bottom of the league!) and rebuilding the squad in the summer. Had a 30m bid accepted for Pjanic, should I go through with it? He can play both CM and CAM, and he's rated 4* CA. However I've got Koke, Fernandinho and Yaya Toure already in...

Hi everyone, im a big fan of the way Dortmund play with their relentless pressing and quick attacks. I'm looking to recreate this on FM15, but it's been difficult to do...

Does anyone do this? Not seen anyone talk about it. I personally think it's a good challenge, due to how hard it is to get your tactic fluid due to the players obviously not being there for most of the year. Also having to keep mangers happy is hard

Started a new save with Bayern and why do the players get so long on holiday? It disrupts my pre-season completely seeing as I have no players to play with!

Created a 4-2-3-1 based in the High press direct passing system employed by Pocchetino at Spurs and Southampton. Anyone willing to test it for me before I upload it? Had some good results with Spurs. Would like 1 big team, one mid-table team, one bottom of the table team and one lower league...

I'm gonna apologise in advance coz I've done this a couple of times before and asked what tactic people would like to see. Im sorry but I'm gonna have to do it again because I'm useless at thinking for myself and I need some direction to create a tactic for. So anyway id like people to comment...
