    Help defending with a high line

    Hello all, So I'm entering my 4th season with Atromitos Athens, and have from the very beginning been trying to push a very direct, attacking brand of football onto my side. In recent seasons, this has manifested itself into a very Juve/Conte style tactic (3-5-2). Although this has worked very...

    Help with editing youth regens

    So I'm working on making a united Cyprus database, whereby clubs from both sides of the border are now playing with each other in the same leagues and the refugee clubs have been moved back to their original cities (i.e. Anorthosi have now returned to Famağusta). Anyway I had a thought that all...

    Some help avoiding relegation, I can't really tell what's wrong with my tactic

    Hi guys, So just a bit of background, I'm reaching the business end of the 2019-2020 season and my first season in Serie A (in the San Marino Challenge). The Serie A in my save is a ridiculously strong league, now better than La Liga and pushing the Prem for top spot in Europe. So, in my...

    Any really obvious issues with this tactic?

    Consistently losing despite generally controlling games, making chances and scoring goals. We are almost always (apart from against the big teams) the better team in a game, but keep having 2/3-goal collapses or conceding like 2 in the last 10 mins. We are atrocious defensively, so I'm looking...

    I'm sorry but this game must be rigged, in play-offs anyway

    So I'm with san marino in the Serie B, and lost to a 94th minute goal in last season's play off final.This years play off though has really taken the biscuit. THE MOMENT I secured a play-off place, my 4 key players get long term injuries in training - weird. I go to play Crotone, a team I have...

    Christ. Has this happened to anyone else? Almost beyond my comprehension..

    Was on a 14 match unbeaten run before this, and had won my last 8 in a row. Suddenly my players play like they've never seen a football before. Igonoring the score we shouldve been beaten about 15-0, absolutely shocking performance, it was more like san marino vs Spain than 1st vs 4th in the...

    Players not obeying instruction

    So I'm playing with S.D. Noja in the spanish third division, so obviously my players aren't world beaters, but they seem to have a complete inability to listen to what I'm telling them - well some of them anyway I'm trying to implement a tiki-taka style of football which seems to be working OK...

    Set Piece Help

    I'm conceding so much from corners mainly, but also from free-kicks, really starting to wind me up as it is always a goal from a set piece that I lose to. Anyway it seems that the goals I concede from corners are not direct but often knocked down and smashed in. How do I stop this happening? Is...

    I seriously do not know what to do anymore so this is my final plea for help before I ditch my copy of fm14. so here's the thing, I'm playing with sk traeff in the Norwegian 3rd division, so a bit of classic LLM. In my first season, being favourites to go down, we were top of the league, 14...
