    International Squad full of greyed out players?

    ah OK then. Thanks. I'm gunna start a new game then and make sure I always do that now, although I've also now discovered that whether you have the files or not, if you start the game with the updated database instead of the default then the squads still don't work. So I have to do the default...

    International Squad full of greyed out players?

    thanks. Do I then need to make a new game every time as well?

    International Squad full of greyed out players?

    I have looked back and discovered that I can see the reports of two of Germany's friendlies which I attended, and one of Japan's World Cup Qualifying matches which I definitely didn't attend but I did attend a Holland match on the same day. On all of these matches the squads seem fine, so does...

    International Squad full of greyed out players?

    I recently checked the Germany squad to see what they had decided to do for the upcoming European Championships and both the Germany and Japan squads have gone back to completely full of greyed-out players and the files you told me to delete have come back, saying that they were last modified on...

    National Team, No Call-ups Available

    I have been co-managing a club and Saudi Arabia Under 23s, and I have been asked to pick a squad for the Olympic games qualifiers. As football is not big in Saudi Arabia, and it's early in the game so there aren't many regens, there were not enough players to fill up the squad, so I had to...

    Pre-match advice help

    I think what you're looking for is, when your in a match, or doing pre-match preparations, if you go on the tactics screen, there's a tab next to the tactics selector which says advice, if you click on it then it has advice that your assistant manager has given you, and you can view this at any...

    Purpose of 'Conditioning' in training?

    I don't think that it's for injured players as they don't usually take part in full training. I think it is similar to the stamina category in that it makes players lose less conditioning when working hard and then regain it quicker afterwards, although I'm not entirely sure.

    Struggling at wide & long tactics

    I can give a few tips for them separately but so far haven't been able to master wide and direct play together. For direct I would agree with the target man, although a poacher works almost as well. Also, if you set a counter strategy then as soon as your defense has the ball they will often do...

    Suggestion

    These tactics sound pretty good except they seem a bit too aggressive to play all the time. I would certainly try them out but if you find you're having defensive problems then bring a few players back and play a bit more defensively until your defense hit some good form. :)

    central defence and their roles

    Yeh. I agree with having a stopper-cover combo, but playing the offside trap as well probably wouldn't work unless you have a speedy defense that can get back quickly if it goes wrong.

    corners

    I have found that I get a lot of my goals through my centre-backs coming up, although they usually head it in from the far post on well-delivered corners. And I reckon your idea of the striker would be a good one, as if there's a goal-mouth scramble it's always helpful to have someone who can...

    Team Instructions Help

    I also usually play with a Ball Winning Mid Defend and DLP support on a 4-5-1 tactic, but I don't base my whole tactics on that. I usually just play a couple of games and see what needs to be improved on and then set up my team tactics on that, and the only problems I'm having at the moment is...

    Individual training focus help

    I'm not exactly an expert but as there's no other answer I thought I might help. I don't think it does although I may be wrong, but a lot of the training schedules cover marking and pos so if you need them then try and use one of those. Hope that helped.
