    my 4231 doesnt seem to work

    I am Liverpool and after much tweaking I have found a tactic that is working for my players. I suggest you try to do a little less than you currently are, there is a lot of conflicting instructions in the screenshots you shared. I'm attaching two screenshots - this team just beat Utd 5-0 and...

    Recalling a player from a loan?

    Just to clear this up; I can confirm you're able to recall players on loan during the transfer windows as long as you inserted the clause, this remains true even if there is a monthly fee or wage contribution towards the player. You used to be able to recall at any time, now just during...

    Recalling a player from a loan?

    This seems to only work if there's no monthly loan fee from what I've read. The game shouldn't allow you to set the 'Can Be Recalled' clause if it's cancelled out by a loan fee, I had no idea. I want to recall some loan players who aren't being played - despite 'Key Player' being set. Very...

    I'd recommend alternating your wingers from Inside Forwards to Wingers now and then. I'd also recommend having your Full Back 'attacking' if you're using an Inside Forward, but manually adjust his mentality so it's not too 'offensive' because you don't want to be left short on the counter...

    Liverpool FC Discussion

    Here's my Liverpool team, I finished 3rd last season with a very thin Liverpool squad. I spent a lot of money during the transfer window, mostly deals over 48 months, but I think I'm in good shape for the next few years. Sterling played very well, he has been loaned out this season - I bet...

    Assistant Manager assigns 'Hard' tackling in every game

    I'm a Liverpool fan too, how are you getting on? My team - second season - bought a lot of players on deals spread over 48 months.

    Assistant Manager assigns 'Hard' tackling in every game

    I think it's quite an efficient use of the Assistant Manager. Johan Cruijff just likes my players to go in hard, permanently.

    Assistant Manager assigns 'Hard' tackling in every game

    Hi, I want his advice to be automatically applied, but I don't agree with tackling 'Hard' on every player. I'm manually overriding this per game, but is there a way to stop it? Cheers, Dean

    GUIDE TO TRAINING IN FM13

    TheBetterHalf, Great post, thank you. I have an issue with what I believe to be my Assistant Manager re-assigning my coaches by spreading them out across categories and reducing the training stars for each category. I have switched off "assistant manager handles match training" - is this the...

    Selling Club Icon

    Often players are happy to see the remainer of their playing career out at their home club. You negotiate a much lower contract and use them whenever you need. If you sell, you may get a few million but the morale of fans and players will drop as icons tend to have good relationships with the...

    Sub keepers...

    I signed Smithies, he's a great free signing, however, you need to give him games against weaker sides otherwise he'll complain. He's young and after leaving my club he went on to be the England #1, so he was right to hand in a transfer request and grow/gain first team experience elsewhere.

    Sub keepers...

    It's all about setting expectations. Ensure your keeper has the squad status "backup to the first team". If he wants to leave, try loaning him out - it's very unlikely your first choice keeper will need resting. If he really wants to leave, let him go and grab yourself a free transfer. Adam...

    Luuk de Jong, Ricky van Wolfsinkel or Eduardo Vargas?

    He looks to have declined slightly, I've signed him anyway at 10m so he'll serve a purpose until Leandro has realised his potential. Plus, I can hold onto my budget as planned. Thanks for the reply, Raikan.

    Luuk de Jong, Ricky van Wolfsinkel or Eduardo Vargas?

    I have 30m to spend but I don't want to spend any more than 20m if I can help it because I'm concentrating on improving the club's finances so the board will agree to improve the youth and training facilities. I have Leandro who I give games to, but would also like to give Carroll a fair chance...
