I never win a penalty shoot-out on this game. Whenever the match goes to penalties, I just go do something else because when I return to my laptop, we would've lost. It's ridiculous, it must be bug. I've had around 10 cup penalty shoot-outs. I've not won one of them. The crazy thing is I...

Is it me or is the only way top teams can beat you is through set-pieces? Literally every "top team" goal is a set-piece (corner, long throw etc.) for me. If you set your team out defensively with some sort of logic, top teams can't score from open play. But no matter if you do two days worth...

Shoots With Power PPM is possibly the best PPM in the game for me. When combined with the right player, it can turn an average striker into a beast. I have this regen who has 17 Finishing, 13 Composure and 17 Strength. The rest of his stats are very very average. Before I gave him this PPM, he...

It almost never happens in my experience.

I usually find that if you're trying to play a possession based game, wingbacks are the way to go because CWB will get too far up the pitch for them to be an outlet for short passes. And vice versa with direct based game, CWB's are the way to go.

It dumbfounds me that you can't do individual talks, before the full team talk. My team won the game, but the performance didn't meet my expectations show I told them through the right team talk. The majority of the team responded well because what I selected was true. But the 2 out of the 3...

... Or do regens face actually changing depending on their morale status. For example a regen will have a slight smile if morale is good and a slight frown if morale is poor. Just a random question. If so, I've never realised that in all my years of playing FM.

Sterling = Shadow Striker. Henderson = Ball Winning Midfielder.

I think I need to take a break from this game, because it's getting my nerves now. 3-2 against Chelsea, and then AI decides to change formation and tactics about 5 times in the space of 6 (in-game) minutes. They say in FM14 you really need to be more reactive than in any other FM. How can you...

Again this game tests my patience. Played a big game against Real Madrid, tactics were spot on. Had a hard fought 1 - 0 lead until my midfielder stupidly decides to back pass it right to Isco and then the inevitable 1 - 1. Now I accept that these kind of things happen in real life. But I what...

I honestly feel that there no point in having attributes in the game any more. You can have players with 20 Fin 20 Comp, but still consistently miss easy chances. This to me makes no sense. Yes, tactics play a very important part in the game. But there's only so far tactics can take you before...

If I remember correctly, Raheem Sterling was playing at the tip of the diamond and was playing as a sort of shadow striker making penetrative runs into behind the space created by either Suarez or Sturridge. I'd make the AP and SS. Make sure you have the Play Wider shout on as well, you'll need...

You guys must be replaying games with triple figures unbeaten. My most is 12 games.

Not really a success but after all these years playing FM, I've just realised that I can skip the start and load up screens by pressing the space bar. :D

I'm in the year 2022 and there is a serious problem with the lack of left footed left back regens. In my save it's extremely rare to find a left footed left back.
