    A new Arsenal save for the off season.

    So I am starting an Arsenal save to stave off the boredom caused by a lack of Premier League action. I am starting by listing and offering the following players: Ospina, Debuchy, Monreal (like him in real life but he is 30 and I aren't getting much money for him if I don't offload now) and...

    Fm2016 tactics screen

    Having reduced my image sizing from 100% to 85% I can finally see the subs down the side of the pitch when looking at the tactics page during a match. Does anybody know how you get them on the tactics page or squad selection page outside of a match? Find it far easier rotating the team and...

    Arsenal - A home grown legacy

    I enjoy doing saves with my own team Arsenal but people often comment how easy saves are with such teams. So I am going to start a new save but set myself some new rules.
