It happens but not as consistently as it happens here. Away days are always hard but it's amplified a lot more I think in FM than it is in real life. Every away game is a struggle for me. If you're Man Utd you shouldn't have to go and play a contain and counter game against a side like Crystal...

Definitely, thanks for your help. I agree - for a few editions now I've felt the difference at and away from home is far over the top to reality. Will have to think about a second strategy away from home I think.

So, I have a tactic where when I play at home, I'm dominating the ball (talking about 60-70%) and creating a shedload of clear cut chances as well as dominating the game (in one game vs Liverpool at home (i'm man utd) I had 10 clear cut chances, Liverpool didn't even have a shot on goal). Fast...

Not sure why - I guess it may be to do with mental attributes? Also how do you prepare your teams for this game? Whenever I come up against a big team, I'm sure to always downplay our changes (acknowledge it'll be tough in press conference), I'm always sure to tell the players they are...

2D - driven mainly by the fact my laptop is too rubbish to cope with 3D =P.

I've resorted to hootball tactics at this moment in time =P.

Interestingly I'm playing a Villa save right now (full game). I'm currently in 11th, 25 games with 31 points. The game seems, to me anyway, at a par with other levels if not slightly harder. I've designed my tactic myself, which IMO is where the fun in the game lies (with transfers of course!)

Wasn't sure where to put this (here or players) but went for here. What is the best way to deal with off form players? e.g. players on goal draughts, players constantly performing at 5.5-6.5 level etc. Really struggle to get players out of a bad run of games.

It's easy because you found a good tactic on here...

Thanks guys, both helped.

Hello everyone. I'm struggling with my tactics at the moment, namely I am leaking goals. I'm able to keep 55-65% possession, and I generally get more shots (but very few CC's) than the opposition. The problem is, I will concede a lot of goals. I'm a stubborn fellow so I don't want to use...

Might be a fault with the actual game rather than the ratings. I've noticed my full backs literally do not know how to defend, though they are relatively good for the league they are in. So many times they get caught out by passes between them and the CD with the winger running on to it. I just...

Sometimes it happens bakazzy. Strikers I have found are very dependant on their mental condition and they are the easiest to notice when they are off form as they don't score. Give him time, and he should come good (depending on who he is and if he is actually good). For example, I'm just...

I'm in my 6th Season as Man Utd and have won the title 4/6 seasons (just won it with 5 games spare, and am in CL/FA semi finals too). Messi hasn't been accepting the contracts from Barcelona and was available to sign on a pre contract since January, but I as many have said couldn't get him to...

The tactic is similar in each case. The formation is the same - 4-2-3-1. If anything I sometimes go more defensive away from home (4-1-2-2-1). I am fairly certain it isn't the tactic because in the season I won the CL i used the same tactic as the ones where i flop out. In the same way, the...
