Drunken Charlie Posted April 20, 2008 Author Share Posted April 20, 2008 Ok I'm dominating posession and having loads of shots. I bought a striker called Sergio Aguero (everyone knows he's good.) I also bought miecheal owen, stupidly, I know. I'm Arsenal BTW. So is this a bug or something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hershie Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Is you buying Michael Owen a bug? Generally, lots of possession results in generally the quality of your chances being less clear cut than if you pass slowly, but perhaps waste less time, and create better chances when the opportunity comes.

Drunken Charlie Posted April 20, 2008 Author Share Posted April 20, 2008 Ops I forgot to say that is it a bug that if you dominate you still lose. I play slow short passing with wide options but preferably focus through the middle. And finally I have time wasting to the lowest. It's really getting annoying, fabregas is injured but he shouldn't be THE problem of my results. However I have put a bid in for silva to try and strengthen my sqaud.

canvey!! Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 It's a bug pre-8.0.2 - if you download 8.0.2 then it should go away. Hopefully you aren't playing 8.0.2 - I don't want this bug back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

postal postie Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 nothing wrong specifically jumps out at me here. 7 shots on target and 1 goal is more than reasonable if your players dont take their chances properly. especially if some of the shots went straight at the keeper or the shot had most of it's power taken away by hitting a defender and just bobled to the keeper. possession can be confusing as more possession doesn't mean you used that possession well.

Because tactics dictate his role in the team, and ergo his positioning, and where he goes. Do you really think that, for example, just by putting him on the wing and saying "Go forward and pass quickly", he's going to get as many goals as in real life?

Genuine_quality Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 if ronaldo didnt play, man utd would still play high tempo and score lots of goals Besides, the original remark was about high tempo being less efficient than slow tempo, which i think is a load of *****, so why change the subject?

Genuine_quality Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 your completely detracting from the point, all teams, especially in home games start with a high tempo to try and get into the opposition, going by the fuzzy logic you use, it would be better for them to start slowly cos they will create better chances only in a bout 20 years will it dawn on you how ridiculous your conceptual viewpoint on football really is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Charlie Posted April 20, 2008 Author Share Posted April 20, 2008 Home teams usually start alot faster than away teams. This is mainly because home teams have the backing of their fans. So the fact that slow tempo causes better chances is stupid. Their should be an information panel which tells what tempo they prefer to play as.

Cougar2010 Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Well I think you are both wrong All top teams play mixed tempo, slowing the game down and then speeding it up. The change of tempo is what leads to a fairly high % of goals being scored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
