cdleedsfan Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Anyone else finding FM11 a little easy? I'm Spurs, It's nearly Christmas and I've only lost one game - Away to AC Milan in the group stages of the Champions League. I think I've only let in 8 goals, 6 in the league. Only bought one player, a Left Back to replace Assou-Ekotto + a few youth players (Sanogo + Eduardo Ramos for example) Morale of squad is generally superb and has been nearly all season Only thing I'm having trouble with is selling players. Listed Jenas, Naughton, Keane, Crouch, Kaboul, O'Hara and Gio dos Santos and only managed sold Crouch and Keane for 5.5 and 4.5 respectively even though I wanted 8 for each. Not only have I not had any bids for the others, but they don't wanna go so I talk to them and then they hate me and want to go but still noone wants them. I'm not even a Tottenham fan, so I don't feel like I should be top with these players. Was hoping for 4th expecting 5th or 6th at start of season Still, musn't grumble. Top after 14 games won 11 Drawn 3 (Wolves, Man U and Liverpool [Away]) and came 2nd in my Champ League group (AC Milan, Benfica and Rubin Kazan) OK I'm just boasting now, but is anyone else finding it easy except selling players?

Bicycle Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 On the contrary, I've found this one to be the one of the hardest yet. But then again, I don't pick strong teams like Tottenham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert the Spud Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 It was mixed for me. Just when i thought it was easy i got taught a lesson by a lesser team, such is life :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert the Spud Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 And Totters have a very strong squad. I'm playing as them because i support them, but i don't buy Dzeko's and Tevez's of this world. I do think that Defoe is bit too effective in the game.

cdleedsfan Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 Strong squad, definitely, but not Premier League leading, 14 games unbeaten run, 6 goal conceeding squad. I picked Spurs 'cause I knew I didn't have much initial work to do with the squad and wanted to buy youngsters and build them up. Expected to be world beaters when them youngsters grew up, not in the first season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avogadro Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 I picked Liverpool and I'm struggling (rather like real life i guess), morale is too effective and there are tons of issues with the me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdleedsfan Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 Get a good Assistant Manager with 15+ motivation, determination, discipline and man management and let him do the press conferences if you're not too good at them? Private chats with the players is an easy way to boost morale Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaSilva9 Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Turn off 2d and 3d mode and try to win the old fashioned way by only using commentary and looking at stats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdleedsfan Posted December 12, 2010 Author Share Posted December 12, 2010 That's the way I play. I never watch the match - Too time consuming. I wish you could just skip matches to the half-time result and then stop for any incidents, cards, injuries, goals etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert the Spud Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 that would be horrendously boring though. Just put the match up to fast and key incidents only it'll take 5 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
milnerpoint Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 i must admit up till this version i still used the commentry only option and i think i may go back to that after the patch comes out, i dont dislike the 3d match engine but it can be more challenging not seeing the game and trying to work things out purely on the stats avaliable.

Wiitastic Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 so far I think FM2011 is pretty easy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebodyfoolish Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 I play with lower league teams and so far it seems about as hard as FM10... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
