I have given up on Football Manager. I tried all the tactics advised and they all failed to help. Not enjoying Football Manager as I have no impact on the result of the game. I'm just a passenger, Good Night :-)
Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'll try these ideas out I may not reply until the weekend as I like to test over a fair number of matches and I don't get much time to play mid week :-)
Tactics
4-2-3-1 Narrow
This is my main formation. I use this formation in all my home games and most away games and it makes a lot of chances and is fairly secure at the back.
Shouts: Pass Into Space, Work Into Box
4-2-3-1 Wide
This is my formation when strong teams away from home...
Yeah I know it's not awful but it's annoying because my home form is so good and Man City are already 8 points ahead of me after 10 games. I'm at work right now but I will post some screenshots of my tactics tonight :-)
All that seems to happen when I set them up to counter is the other team continue to play defensively and I still have the majority of possession but I get less chances and they get more.
Hi Everyone
Does anyone know what the problem is with away games?
I am currently in my second season with Chelsea and my EPL matches are as follows:
Home
Played: 5
Won: 5
Goals For: 22
Goals Against: 2
Average Possession Per Game: 62%
Average Short Range Shots Per Game: 15
Average Clear Cut...
I will try moving my IFs out wide to open up some space. I probably won't set them as wingers as Chelsea don't really have any wingers other than Marin maybe as Hazard, Moses, Oscar & Mata are either AP or IF. Thanks for the suggestions :)
Hi Everyone
I have just started a new save with Chelsea and it is going really well. I have scored in every one of my first 6 EPL games with two 3-0s and two 4-0s so I'm not having any trouble scoring however only 2 goals have been scored by strikers out of 17. I play a narrow 4-2-3-1 control...
I'm Done with Football Manager for a few months. I just can't take it anymore. I have had some good times and bad times in this game in about equal measures but I just can't stand all the problems I have with the game.
1. Match engine is rubbish when playing as lower league teams. A lower...
I have played 4-5 games with the new patch (not an extensive, I know). Here's what I thought:
Pros
- Football looks and plays better. The Passing in the first two thirds of the pitch has greatly improved.
- Less Goals. There seem to be less 4-2s and 3-3s and more 2-1s and 1-1s.
- Less Goals...
They will be getting quite a lot of games as I am playing my youngsters in the League cup, FA cup and Euro Cup Group Stage games. I can't find anyone of any quality that is available for loan.
I think retraining my right back is a good idea as he does have good stats for the CB role. I was wondering however could this formation work? Has anyone tried anything similar?

Hi Everyone,
I am in my fifth season with Brighton having come 5th in the EPL last season winning the league cup and coming runner-up in the Euro Cup. At the start of this season I made a error in judgement by using all my transfer budget on an outstanding regen striker who got top scorer in...
I tried your suggestion in the last two games of the season and drew with Liverpool Away which is a good result in my game because they are a top 4 team and then I destroyed Man Utd 4-1 at Home which is an amazing result considering they have won the league every year in my game and had only...
