    xPer Advanced Warfare pack

    Played 3 games in the Premier League with Arsenal using this tactic. The results were: Arsenal 5 - 4 Hull Crystal Palace 3 - 0 Arsenal Arsenal 2 - 2 Leicester So not going too well so far. Conceding so many goals it's untrue. At least 3 CCC's conceded per game.

    FM14 Funny/Random Thread

    Anyone want to explain this? Having a decent season, tactic is going really well, then comes Chelsea away. Spent ages sorting out the man marking to try and stop their front 4 (they started using attacking 4231 with Hazard LW, Mata CAM, Willian RW and Jackson Martinez ST). Made my usual...

    Good players for 'Complete Forward' role?

    Can anyone tell me some players who are good as a 'complete forward'. Will be playing alone up front, supported by two attacking inside forwards and an attacking advanced playmaker. Playing as Arsenal. I have Giroud playing there at the moment but apart from the odd game here and there, he's...

    Attempting to replicate Dortmund's Gengenpressing

    This tactic is great but I have one problem, I can't get my strikers to score at all. In fact, I can't even get them to play well. Playing as Arsenal, I've tried Giroud as a CF, AF, TM and Poacher, and he didn't score once and didn't ever get a rating higher than 6.5. Then I tried Walcott as a...

    How can I improve this tactic?

    I'm not fixated on having possession without hurting the opposition, I'm fixated on having possession AND hurting the opposition. It can be done. Look at Bayern Munich under Guardiola, they have an incredible average possession of 71.1% and have only conceded 8 goals, but they are still the top...

    How can I improve this tactic?

    I'm a big fan of the Pep Guardiola possession/tiki taka style, and have decided to try and get my Arsenal team to play that way. My main goals with this tactic are: - To have 70% possession or more in most games. (Obviously against tougher teams it's not always possible.) - To have a pass...

    who's the Bogey team?

    West Brom for me. Shane Long scores every time he touches the ball.

    The " I have a small question" thread FM14

    Passing accuracy I'm having trouble getting my players to complete a high percentage of their passes. I'm playing as Arsenal. I started off playing a 4-2-3-1 with a DLP and B2B at the base of midfield, Ozil as an AP in front of them, Cazorla as an IF on the left, Walcott as a winger on the...

    The " I have a small question" thread FM14

    I would probably say you need to use high pressing, in order to close down the opposition before they get a chance to play a ball in behind your back line.

    Trouble editing player stats

    Okay, I decided I would download the editor and change a couple of player stats to what I deem as more realistic values. For example, it annoys me that the likes of Falcao (who I believe to be the best finisher in the world) and Messi don't have the best finishing and composure stats in the game...

    Yep, that's exactly what happens. Has to be a bug in the ME, surely?
