    Managing ‘big clubs’

    Looking for some advice. I usually manage non league teams or league 2 teams and build my way up. But I’m a huge Man Utd fan and would love to take them back to the top. Problem is I always get bored, I find it too easy an if I win a trophy I don’t find it to be much of an accomplishment. I like...

    Your best signing on FM19

    I’ve only just started my first save after picking up the game. But I managed to sign Ashley Fletcher on loan for MK Dons in league 2, expecting big things

    Questions an advice.

    He anybody managed to get a 5221 working? Looking to start a new season with spurs after my Fylde save got currupted, I’m used to managing non league sides an haven’t had much experience with elite sides. Can’t seem to get anything out of eriksen or alli. Kane is a beast however. I’ve...

    Difficulty.

    Anybody else think this is one of the easy versions of the game so far. I may be jumping ahead of myself as I’m only 30 games in to my first save. I’ve started a Fylde FC and so far I’ve won 30 of my first 40 games an lost 5 scoring 97 goals. In this time I’ve also beaten Crewe, Blackburn and...

    New save

    Work ball in to box, dribble less an slow tempo i personally think is too cautious, I would like my players to move the ball about quicker to unsettle the opposition, I often use pass in to space to take advantage of players being dragged out of position with the quick tempo. I would think the...

    Best english team to play 3 at the back?

    How about Everton? Probably have to purchase a centre back to play with a 3 but they have Coleman an Baines who could play wingback, plenty of central mindfielders in Schniederlin, Barkley, Gueye etc and then Lukaku up top.

    Players getting poached by the big guns

    I can see why it's ruining your save but at the same time it's football, look at Monaco irl. Maybe the way to go is to send your scouts out to the big nations indefinitely, get them to bring reports on players with at least 4 star potential, under 20, hot prospects and try and replace your big...

    New boss will sack me

    I've had many takeovers over the years in fm and had that message a few times, even with a smaller reputation I've never been sacked in this situation.

    Can any tactic work

    After having using your standard 4231, 433 and 4312 formations with massive success I was wondering If any formation can be made to Work, I will explain why I am asking. I started out with Lincoln in the vanarama league and won back to back promotions before moving on to a recently relegated...

    4312 with great success

    Id like to think that winning 8 out of your first 12 games in the premier club as a newly promoted team and sitting 3rd in the table isn't a bad achievement. On top of the results from last season shows the tactic is at least worth a try for someone looking for help.

    4312 with great success

    cant seem to find stats for last season but these are my stats so far this season.

    4312 with great success

    No specific training. Opposition instructions I use on a game by game basic. If I'm playing against a 1 striker formation without much pace I mark tightly, usually mark there attacking mid tightly as well. Depends who I'm playing against really. As for ppm I have the dlp on 'switches ball to...

    4312 with great success

    is that another tactic on the forum? I rarely tend to look at tactic threads as I prefer to build my own.
