Anyone had success with city? Can you please post the formation you've been playing players in/out and some results? thank you
 
I am also playing with man city in my first fm 14 save. I cant say that I have success at the moment and I also look for a solution to improve, but I think after some changes I start to play a better and dominating football.

After 7 games: 4 W, 3 D, 1 L, I am on the sixth position, with a backlog from 7 points to top.

My formation and tactic settings:

J. Hart

zabaleta (fbr support) kompany & demichelis (both CB defend) clichy (CWB)

Toure (BBM) fernandinho (DLP defend)

Navas (AMR Winger Attack), Aguero or Silva (APM attack or Trequartista), Nasri (IFW support)

Dzeko (CF support)

TI: Control, Fluid,

You could try with this shape for the start
 
Sent you a PM as the forum does not want to let me post my post, even though it seems fine to me :(

try my 4-3-3 tactic iv'e created a thread about it and it's doing good so far
 
I've had sucess with the first tika taka one that went up TIke Taka Test, as well as the Everton Pressure tactic, but the bexst one so far is the 4-4-1-1 High Pressing Possesion on here.
 
If you want I can upload my tactic as it has a lot of personal Player instructions that I don?t have time to detail, however its basically Two fullbacks 1 BPD Defend 1 CD Defend, 2 Wide midfielders 1 BWM Defend 1 AP attack, 1 AF Attack 1 CF Support.

Pretty much play narrower, Press more, Push Higher up, Stay on feet, Shorter passing, Wide midfielder swap, more roaming. Starting Strategy Attacking and Very fluid.

Signing wise I didn?t sign anyone till Janujaz in January and Yuri Tielemans but with an end of season transfer date. Second season I got rid of Zabaleta, Clichy, Javi Garcia, Demichelis and Dzeko all of whom largely underperformed. Signed Alex Sandro, Danilo, Mangala and Luis Muriel all so far have proved to be great signings.

One other thing to keep in mind while your tactic is still bedding in keep a 4-2-3-1 Tactic in reserve in case you need to switch to it against the top teams as you may struggle to control the midfield.

Edit bit more info: Managed to get aguero scoring 36 in 45 all comps for me, setting him as the penalty taker will help him pick up vital goals to keep him in form as goaless spells are notouriously hard to recover from on this version. Setting negredo to hold up the Ball, shorter passes and Moving into channels seems to create a lot more chances for the supporting aguero.

The only problem with my tactic i can see is The BWM defensively hes strong but as the tactic plays very much like city in real life he gets a lot of clear shooting opportunitys from the edge of the box when the opposition is totally penned in and rarely scores.

That was my original post
