-lewis-16- Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 You are too kind. It's coming together though, still writing a lot of the team analysis, which takes ages. Writing is the easy part though, the main challenge for a thread like PSG is gaining people's interest and trying to sustain some activity... Lyon, year on year, has no such problem.

MrSundlofer Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Spending my weekend playing with Lyon on the demo. Lyon will be the team I'll play with when the game is released. I first created a tactic, took some hours. With this tactic the players are blending very well. It's a balanced 4-2-3-1 formation with specific instructions on all players. Michel Bastos, Toulalan, Källström, López and Gourcuff has all been fantastic. As a partner to Cris in the central defence I brought in the experienced defensive midfielder Gilberto Silva. The fans love him! Despite being 33 years old he performs very well. Heading 15, Marking 17, Tackling 15, Positioning 18, Jumping 17, Strength 16, Anticipation 18, Bravery 16, Composure 16, Determination 15, Influence 17, First Touch 16. Games played 13, games won 11, games draw 1, games lost 1, goals scored 36, goals conceded 7. Also performed very well in the Champions League. Lyon - Barcelona 2-0. 13 shots, 47% possession. Schalke - Lyon 0-5. 15 shots, 55% possession. Lyon - Twente 4-0. 20 shots, 62% possession. Can't wait till the game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGougan33 Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 For us it has to be Ishak atm Purefun Novillo and Pied im really excited about aswell!

Good results there mate, your faring better than i was anyway How do you find your results against lower teams, as i was beating all the big teams and struggling against the little teams!

MrSundlofer Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 How do you find your results against lower teams, as i was beating all the big teams and struggling against the little teams! I have had good results against lower and decent teams actually: Caen - Lyon 1-3 Lyon - Brest 2-0 Lyon - Valenciennes 5-0 Nancy - Lyon 0-1 Arles-Avignon - Lyon 1-4 Lyon - Sochaux 5-1 Lens - Lyon 0-1 Lyon - Monaco 2-0 Bordeaux - Lyon 1-3 Lyon - Saint-Etienne 2-0 Rennais - Lyon 0-1 I also draw at home vs Lille 2-2. I had 18 shots and they had 3 shots. Just unlucky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What tactic / formation do you have in mind? I have had success with the 4-2-3-1 formation. Just want some more possession. General Strategies Philosophy: Balanced Starting Strategy: Control I normally start a game like this. After about 20 minutes I do some changes. Changing the strategy depending on opposition. Also, Lisandro López is scoring for fun! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGougan33 Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Im going with the same formation except Fluid Control, passing is direct, quite wide, high line, fast tempo, first game is against Monaco so a wee test Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSundlofer Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 What about tutoring? Any advices? Ishak Belfodil Harry Novillo Clément Grenier Alexandre Lacazette Thimothée Kolodzieczak Nicolas Seguin Jérémy Pied Thomas Fontaine Sébastien Faure Enzo Réale Saïd Mehamha Grégoire Puel I like Clément Grenier and want him to become a great player for Lyon.

Lightig Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I see the usual Lyon players are quite ready for FM11. I'm gonna join you then TigerTime =>Well, they're 14th, that's right, but that's now much better than at the start of the season (17th two games ago). Before this crappy game against Avignon, they were on a four-games winning streak. And first in CL group with 9 points Getting back to FM, it seems that OL youngs are very very promising this year, we won't have to buy good substitutes anymore, we already have them in the club! I think I'm gonna go with the traditional Lyon 4-3-3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
