Lowering the tempo is a slow build up, that's exactly what it does.

But it has been largely stated that increases the time players hold the ball

You can instructing an attacking mentality and still slow the build up down by lowering the tempo.

That's because its often necessary to put your foot on the ball to slow down the build up.

or run wide with it

or run wide with it

So then instruct the player to run wide with the ball.

Actually Osasuna, Gijon, Levante, Santander, Getafe have taken draws against them over the Pep years, Hercules, Getafe, Osasuna and Numancia (who are now relegated) beat them in that time too, thats just the ones I remember. I've only gone with what I would consider the "small" teams at the time.

I've done 3 matches to test: not always is a problem of reaction from the other team, it's more like the players simply unplugged, they start becoming desinterested, the subs after a few minutes become disciplicent. 3 matches, 9 subs, 9 disciplicent: considering the mental attributes of my players are good, why would this happen ???

This might sound like a stupid frustration, but I have 6 really high potential strikers, and only one or two high potential players in the rest of the pitch, and I'm frustrated that I wont be able to develop all of them as well as if there was only one or two of them.

...create a tactic that uses 3-4 strikers, like a 4-2-4 or 5-2-3 or 2-1-2-2-3 (which I use (H))

Most of the time, your strikers will put it straight at the keeper, or control a ball for ages until tackled, or blast it wide. Whereas the AI striker will put it past your keeper with the one chance they get. THIS is what frustrates most of us. That we can dominate a match this much (so clearly "It's your tactic" comment that normally is reeled out is bollocks) and still only score one goal is THE single most frustrating thing in the game.

Unfortunately, because there will be no fixes, we have to live with it. How SI thought this was acceptable as a final tweak, I'm at a loss to understand. But they do. Thus we are stuck with watching our strikers have 31 chances (most, for some reason taken from outisde or the edge of the box) and scoring 1 and the oppo having 1 shot, not a CCC and still scoring.

It's poo, but there it is

** Before you read this post, I am NOT accusing anyone of piracy, I am just making a potential observation **

I have noticed that several people that have been banned from this site for using a pirated game have been having real problems with the game. Perhaps SI have been really clever and broke the game on purpose for people who have pirated it? I remember loads of people complaining about being sacked on one of the Fifa manager game after one season and it turns out they purposely programmed it to do that.

Again im not accusing anybody, in just posting something I have noticed, as it seems some people have loads of issues, while others have dont seem to notice it as much.

I swear to god I thought this was an april fool troll post

I have several issues, but not bugs, just ME stuff. My program is 100% legit.

It's not in many ways . Can't/wont going into the details, but Moral of the story: don't pirate the game.

Sorry but if your player is blasting wide while they slot away, it IS a user issue the ME is exactly the same. There was no tweak because you cant tweak one and not the other. If your strikers are mostly shooting from outside the box, you need to look at your set. Cold harsh truth.

 

[Mike.]

He took 15 long shots. 15. I'd be livid, i'd have already made changes by half time

 

[Mike.]

38 shots in total, 11 shots on target says a lot too. I'm aim for half of that that total, and look to create better chances.

 

[TonyVilliers]

Ok, so how do you take Wayne Rooney, and tell him not to hit at the keeper. And also to take it INTO the box before shooting?

I set cross from byline and the players always "wait" until closed down before trying to cross it.

That screenshot screams of Attacking mentality (Edit: and limited movement) vs an opponent parking the bus.

Amen to that. Don't take money out of other people's pockets. That's just plain wrong. Unless your the COTE.

I can only tell you how my team is set up. But I'm at work. happy to send you screenshots later. But essentially my side are about movement and patience and angles. I take half as many shots as the above, but an far more clinical.

 

[TonyVilliers]

I do notice that my right and left FB's take an awful lot of shots rather than crossing the face of goal. That annoys me and I can't seem to change it. I'm using TFF's abomination at the moment which seems to work quite well. Struggling to tweak it to make it more killer ballish.
