I finally have to break my silence and rant on this. I am in my 4th season with A.C. Milan and won the league last year. I have pretty much wrapped up the league this year as well but with seemingly no pattern droves of my players get nervous, very nervous, or anxious no matter what the situation - this has been ongoing as long as I can remember.
I've been letting it slide as something I can fix or eventually figure out but the more I play the game the more I have to ask myself.. is this me? Or the game?
You might say if I've won the league then I should be satisfied but my Champions League runs have been abysmal and affected by this epidemic and my general team play is never reliable. I've managed to have good enough runs to keep the league but my personal opinion on the team's play - poor.
I can't help but feel the developers were heavy handed with the team talks and 'mood swings' concerning the squad. I've never had the feeling while playing '13 that there was some kind of middle ground and team performance and attitude have always swung from extreme left to extreme right and back again. I have tried the spectrum of team talks, individual talks, praise and criticism, no team talk, and seemingly-good team talks where everyone lights up green, yet the feeling of influence I have - none. It does not matter if my team talks look to relax or motivate or anything - performance and attitude seem to have almost no connection to my actions. I feel like a conductor of a train that has remained on course for now, but is teetering on the tracks.
I am gladly hoping an individual can correct me.
