Has anyone found an effective set up for either corners or indirect free kicks? I currently use a right footed player taking a right sided free kick, aiming at far post and this generally yields approx 10 goals over the season, but other teams seem to manage a lot more. As for corners, I aim...

I've started a new career game with Middlesbrough, but midway thru the 1st season have a problem with Kris Boyd. All of a sudden his morale dropped to very poor, his goals dried up and he's lacking confidence with his performances. I have tried everything to help him rediscover his form but...

Having waited patiently for the demo to be released, I have one problem which is stopping me from enjoying what could be an amazing game! As soon as I click on any player (to bring up his attribute screen), FM completely closes without any error message... obviously this is a major pain in the...

Ladies & Gentlemen, I shall now introduce you to the worlds greatest striker! I restarted my Man Utd game, using all the knowledge and information I have picked up over the last few months and managed to create a monster!!!

Okay, so one of your star players wants to leave due to the fact they believe they have achieved all they can at the club... however you don't want to sell him??? Well worry no longer my son, as you now have the answer... Transfer List him (making him UN-available for loan), set squad status...

Okay, not in the normal sense but I have a confession... I had never deviated from the default skin nor have I ever downloaded any backgrounds! But after having seen a few screenshots, I thought I'd give it a blast, and am loving my new skin, but was wondering: a) Is there a background pack of...

I've managed to pick up a quality regen, however his Stamina and Natural Fitness are really poor... I know that over time they will increase (however I fear not too much) but was wondering apart from focusing his training on Strength, is there any other way to dramatically improve this???

Currently I have it set to "Target Man" which seems to be working well, unless I have both Tevez & Rooney upfront, so was just wondering if anyone has found any of the other settings useful ???

When asking a youngster to learn from a senior player, there are 3 options: a) State that you see "X" as the ideal role model for "Y" b) State that you think "X" would benefit by adopting "Y"'s approach to the game c) State that you think "X" can learn from "Y" What's the difference between...

I have never really been a big fan of regens as I've always liked to see big name players in my starting line up... HOWEVER after finding this little beauty I may have to rethink the players that I buy! This guy has to be the best defender if not player I have ever seen on FM, and I've managed...

Not for the first time in any of my saved games, but the latest "News Bulletin" is that one of my players now dislikes my assistant manager!!! I'm currently Newcastle United, doing extremely well this season and out of the blue Martins has taken a disliking to Tord Grip!!! Has Grip done...

I'm just starting my 2nd season with Man Utd, am in still in pre-season and Barca have offered me 34m for Nani... I'm quite tempted to take it as I'm not really a big fan of him anyway, but will only do so if I can find a replacement before the season kicks off!!! Would prefer someone who...

After just finishing my first season with Man Utd I've noticed that Rooney / Tevez / Berbatov's shot accuracy is approx 50%... However people like Yakubu / Heskey / Crouch are up in the 65%+ region! Now I don't have a problem scoring goals with all 3 of my strikers scoring 20+ each during...

I've read a few times on here that people have signed Messi for 35m because he signed a new contract and that was the release clause fee... ... I'm just wondering when does he sign a new contract as I have enough money to buy him at 120m but don't wanna be paying over the odds when I can get...

I'm sorted with Corners and am scoring plenty of goals from them, but only scoring a few from Free Kicks & Throw Ins, so was wondering if anyone has found a way to increase the amount of goals they get from them???
