More feedback on this from me. Still playing the same FMH14 game and still using this tactic. it's working very well for me! Got sacked from Shrewsbury after taking them into the Prem and finishing 12th in my first season. Harsh! Took over Boro and won the Championship at the first attempt...

I don't post here very often (at all) but wanted to post and say that I've used this tactic and it's worked very well. I started unemployed and got a job with Shrewsbury. Employed this tactic and got off to a flying start. I was sat in the playoffs at christmas of my first season (Shrewsbury...

When unveiling a signing you say "I think Player X will slot in here very well" and the summary says "Player x will likely be disappointed by the manager's negative comments" Huh?!

If you want a winger try Tranquillo Barnetta. I picked him up for fairly cheap (7m I think) and in my first season he was top scorer playing on the wing and won German player of the year (had an average rating of about 8.2). We won the league and he was key.

I haven't used this tactic but it did cause me to read up about the Nike Defence. Usually when I play FM I can't make a good tactic and end up using one from here. This time, however, I stuck to my own tactic. Playing as Wolfsburg. I was doing ok but only 4th in the league and the board...

Cheers. I've experimented with that. I found going into overload helped, but it also left me wide open at the back so against the better teams it would set me up for a beating. Also, I tried experimenting with roles like making th ewingers attacking etc. But nothing has got me to the heights of...

A bit of both I think. Basically I started the game (with Villa) and in my first season I made my own tactic, worked fairly well, finished 6th. Then started my second season with the same tactic and it started to get **** results. So I came on here and downloaded your tactic which worked...

I've been using this tactic, with a few tweaks, and it worked amazingly for about a season. I was struggling in mid table then used this tactic and finished 3rd. However, the tactic has stopped working. Teams have figured it out I guess and it just doesn't work anymore. So I've had to start...

Went to 2017 on FM07 when I started with Milan and managed Chelsea, Fiorentina and Bayern in the same save.

In FM 07 I won Serie A with Milan about 4 times in a row (it was pretty easy with them tbh), then moved to England and won the prem with Chelsea, then moved to Spain and won La Liga with Athletico, then moved back to italy and won Serie A with Fiorentina, then moved to germany and won the...

I normally close down both wingers and either show them to the outside if the strikers are small and quick, or show them to the inside if the strikers are big and slow. Use tight marking on an AMC and push the defensive line up to reduce his space. If the opposition have a **** player then...

When I first got the game I started with Villa (the team I support) and in my first season I had 8 or 9 penalties and only scored one of them. In one game, vs Bolton, I got 3 penalties in 3 minutes, i kid you not, and barry missed all 3. Since I moved down to LLM I don't have that problem, so...

I've played against The moore brothers (luke and Stefan) Also met Peter Crouch and Lee Hendrie on a night out when they were at Villa. Bought crouchy a drink, he was a great dancer even back then!! Also got a mate called Junior English who is on the game for Solihull Moors.

I have this problem too. I've done what Sean suggests, but I still have to exit out of TV view everytime I start a match. Doesn't go back to TV view for the rest of the match, but it's always there at the start.

The budget's low for Villa because the game already includes their summer transfers on which they spent around 40 million. In a Villa game Lerner gives you more money in November and a very healthy budget the following summer.
