Tactics & Training: The " I have a small question " thread

[DonVilla]

Didn't notice this thread before.
Please bare in mind that I'm still playing FM 10:

"Can someone please explain what the training progress bars in the players training tab represents?
I have each of my players on their own custom training, the majority of the players bars are full, ie. good progress? However, some of the players bars are only half full, or three quarter way, these are not players who had injuries in the specific months, so I am not sure what else affects the progress?"

 

[Tornado8]

I have a question

for the training, shall I train my player for the position I want or for what he is best at?
e.g., Neymar, I play him as Poacher but using the calculator in here it said that he is best at attacking midfielder with attack duty. so which position to train him ? supposing I am using this schedules

I hope you got my point

 

[Coldod]

my players are complaining about lack of discipline at the club. How do i go about improving this?

@tornado8, it's anybody's guess I think. When they are young you can mold them quite a bit. Think that you can train Neymar as a poacher, but there is no garantuee it will get the best out of him. But if his stats improve on poacher, the calculator will eventually tell you he is best as poacher. Or so I think.

@ Coldod, warn and fine players who get red cards, too many yellow ones or who don't show up for training. Be carefull though as overdoing this will make your players unhappy as well.

On a side note, anyone got any advice for me? (4 posts back).

What are the negative effects when one of your players is "Unhappy with his training schedule"? And one of my players his attributes increased on his profile but why i'm not seeing an increase in the training schedule section of the training screen?

The negative effects of that are that the player's stats will progress at a severely slower rate, or might not progress at all.

The training section only shows you how good the player has been in training in that area, in my view, comparing to average, so it doesn't have to be related with an attribute increasing.

Instead of starting new threads, please put your small question in here.


A small question is in my definition a question that has a straight answer, a question that there is no point in having a discussion about. when the one has provided enough information about the problem If you feel that you want to brainstorm around a subject you have doubts about,, feel free to start a thread about it
​

Please note that this is the tactics & training part of the forum so if you have anything that relates to graphics, players or if you are wondering if your computer is good enough to run FM11, don't hesitate to ask your questions in those parts of the forum instead.


Cheers

Hello, i was just wondering if anyone else had some thoughts on FM2011 training, basically on my previous FM2011 games i've loved josh mceachran & Amine, but ive started a new game and there determination dropped big time, they wer both on 14 determiantion before, now there both on 6, i know u can only GAIN determination thru player tutution, i very rarely see determination increase without using this, i was just wondering if anyone has anyways which they have IMPROVED determination with any other method but that, AND is the best way to gain determination thru the ( As a senior member of the squad + tution ) the best way to teach it, thats the only one i have used, Any Tips wud be good, seen as i have time on my side with these youngsters both 17,
much :wub:

i post this again because i had no answer in godcubed's thread:

i'm trying to recreate Martin O'neill's tactics, and i've got a little question:
i want a winger to cut inside, but there's no inside foward rol in ML/R position, so i moved him to AMR, but when i go to the advanced player settings the "wide play" option has a "cut inside option", will this have the effect i want to my tactic?

When a player attribute goes down, talk to him about his training and ask for improvements. When a player is playing below your expectations (getting low rates) talk to him about his match performance. When a player gets a red card, never let him unpunished -- first time, issue a warning and second time fine 1 week wages. This should do the trick.

Probably.

Is there a list of coaches with the respective level of training they provide? Example: Frank McParland 5 stars on attack training.

Also: a number of staff in the game do not want to discuss contracts with me, any reason why?

 

[Formia]

I don't know if this is the right place for it, but...

On FM2010, I created and used a narrow 4-3-1-2 formation and it worked wonders. I was just wondering, with FM11, are narrow tactics just as successful? Or are wide formations the better way to go now?

 

[fnurlygurly]

The nationalities of the incoming youths you get each season, is it jus randomly chosen?

Cuz´in FM10 if I had a for example brazilian youth coach , then a brazilian/english youth player was created.

Whats your ideas of this`?
Can you manipulate the game to that extent?

You are correct that there is a relation between your scouting network, coaches and overall youth program and the quality and nationality of the academy players

Quick (but maybe stupid) one. I hear a lot of people talking about playing high or deep defensive lines. How do you alter this? On what 'options' page is this?

Thanks

 

[Dabizas]

Have a small issue regarding preferred moves training.

I recently tried to train Neymar to 'Cut Inside' (play him as an AML) only to have him fail to successfully adapt his game to it.

Now, I want to train him to 'Run With Ball Often' if possible but when I go to have a conversation with him about it 'Movement Training' is greyed out and so I can't ask him to start training to do that.

I assume this is due to my previous failed attempt at retraining but what I'd like to know is whether this is permanent or temporary thing?

If it's temporary how long will I have to wait?

Thanks to anyone who can help.

Go to Team - Tactics - Team instructions (drop meny where it says formation) and then Advanced

When using the Tactic creator, you will get the option about what formation to use, the philosophy and strategy. these settings will provide you with a framework from which you tweak your tactic. when looking at the tactic beneath, you will see that when playing balanced.counter with a "default" closing down, the d-line is set to rather lowish, but not low. If you want to push up this d-line, you can either tweak the closing down and close down higher up in the field or weak the d-line your self by checking the small box to the left.

Ingame, you can also use the shouts "hassle or stand off" or push or/drop deeper"

They are not as successful but they can still work really well. The biggest difference when speaking about narrow and wide formations is that in FM11m Wingers work as they should defensively and therefor, you loose the "glitch" that made you less vulnerable against wide formations in FM10

When i get a pre match report and i am told my team has flair advantage, dribbling, touch, speed and technique advantage. What tactics should i use??

This basically means that your squad is faster and better with their feet compared to your opponent and i would not change anything based on this information apart from specific scenarios where you have areally pacey winger and their fullback is really slow but thats just common sense

If having a players with great technique and with lots of pace and flair, i would try to construct a tactic based on this, regardless of opponent letting some of the more flairfull players have a fair amount of creative freedom( if they have good decision) and let the players that are pacey and good dribblers try to beat their man

 

[mantpro]

I have a problem with my tactics.. i had a tactic saved and it's perfect but my corner and free-kick preferences always go back to normal instead of what i had indicate before..

 

[Mag]

Do other attributes affect Set Pieces? ie do a good corner taker need Crossing, anticipation, techique?
same for Free kick taker, will long shot, technique, anticipation, desision, creativity, flair, passing, crossing affect how good a free kick is, esp if set on mixed.
For Corners I set on Far post atm (best headers are standing on far post and attacking far post)
While I have a very good Free kick taker on mixed (he have very high mental attribues so should be able to read the game good, while technical attributes are not the best. Long Shot is 10 and PPM's try long range Free kick, Hit Free kick with power)
