That pretty much sums it up... Starting my 2nd season with Liverpool and managed to splash 70M on Pogba. Maybe not the best decision but I've been dreaming about habing him on my team since my first save with Southampton on this game. The rest of the team is fine but my fullbacks are RB...

So I've been getting SO many games like this: We create a ton of chances, dominate the match the whole 90 min but still no goals... I usually don't mess around in training, just leave it in general settings all season (except for when I sign lots of players or in the fitness build-up phase)...

I'm managing Southampton and almost finishing my 3rd season. Halfway through the season (Jan.) Patrick Roberts says he wants to leave for more first-team football and I tell him to be patient, then I get a couple of on other players and since then he becomes a first-team regular on my side...

Hey guys, I'm on my first season with Southampton and everything was going fine until 3/4 of the season. I was undefeated for 17 matches using a man marking, closing down opponents, mixed passing tactic and for no reason everything started going the other way!! Players started acting differently...

Hi guys. I'm managing Southampton and about to enter the January transfer window of the first season. I'm looking for a solid CB who I could also use in the Premier League in case I get promoted (which I'm currently on course to). I have a budget of 1 million €. Thanks in advance ;)

Hi guys. My goalkeeper (Joe Hart) when passing a ball ALWAYS passes to my left full-back despite the fact that my whole defensive line is available to receive a pass (altough usually my RB and LB are not so marked). I have my "Focus Passing" instruction to "Mixed"! This is taking a lot of...

Hi there guys. I just started playing FM 2012 and I've come across a few problems. The main one I would say are my defenders. What I'm saying is that my defenders become absolutely dumb when trying to pick a pass to start an attacking movement, they'll just exchange passes between themselves...

Am I the only one that doesn't use a GK sub in games? I've played a total of 15 seasons since FM09 and I've never had problems with this, never has my main goalkeeper got inured in a game. It's really nice as it leaves with an extra slot for subs and I find it much better that way. The only...

Hello there. So we all know Hulk as a great player w/ monstruous physical attributes etc. True. Shame is that he has the "Shoots with Power" PPM, and so he misses a LOT of chances because the blasts the ball outside the stadium when an easy tap on the ball would be enough to make it count. I've...

'Sup The question is if for example I am playing a 4-4-2 in which the MCL is the Advanced Playmaker and the MCR is the Ball Winning Midfielder, if I set them to swap positions, does this mean that they will just change places with one another according to the plays in the game or if when they...

So as we knows, there is no German team in the game. So would it work if I wanted to buy a german player and offered 10M and another 20M with the condition "After 5 international games" ?

I was wondering if I'm the only one that gives nicknames to players? :D Form example Juan Manuel Mata I was always calling him Juanito Mata during games so I ended up adopting the nickname for him. Anyone else does this?

The name of the thread pretty much says it all. Many of you have surely suffered with that magnific striker which you might have payed millions for him thinking he would bring you nothing more than good results. You start your season and he's the ultimate striker, great performances, goal after...

I know Raikan created a thread asking users not to open threads that discuss who is better than who, but I just can't figure out which of these I should buy... I'm managing City, 2nd season, Hart didn't convince me in the first season (and ended up costing me the European Final by comitting 2...

Hi there. Alberto Paloschi is transfer listed for 9M but he's co-owned by Parma and Milan so when I go to make a bid (yes it's transfer season time) it gives me the option to make a bid for the 50% ownership of both clubs. Should I just offer 4,5M to each club? Can I buy 50% now and 50% on...
