speedy316 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Thanks this is all great advice that i will look to implment i just had another bad one, played Barcelona as Real Sociedad and my players played outta their skin for 90 minutes, earning a 2-1 victory for my side (i was at home however would have been even sweeter at the Nou Camp) was ecastatic at the performance everyone give it 100% and then the next game against bottom side Las Palmas they play like a bunch of school boys having a kickabout in the park with jumpers for goalposts, not chasing balls, full backs wont close down wingers, and centre backs wont jump for headers. Strikers showboat and midfielders will recieve the ball in the centre and then stand there like they dont know what to do with it when there are at least 3 players around them unmarked who could progress the ball. A glimmer of hope when a midfielder played a sweet through ball, striker burst free one on one with the keeper, all he has to do was slot it past him but no the showboating git decides to try and round the keeper, he does but makes a meal of it plays it too deep and it ends up being cleared! So frustrating! Any other day he would have hit the ball but today he was such a show off (maybe there was girl in the crowd he was trying to impress!) Can there be a conversation addition for the next game to admonish players for showboating, its fine when your controlling the game 5-0 and the opposition are beat but when you are struggling for a goal and he decides to do what i just described then its just a frustrating time for all and there is nothing i can do about his showboating apart from moving him on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackter Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 General advice on thought processes in regard to FM, presented in the form of a strange but accurate analogy: If you drop a piece of toast and it starts raining, did you dropping the toast cause the rain?

eximius-vir Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 If I am playing against a weaker team, I get to half time and its still 0-0, I have the majority of possession and high number of shots, I make one small, simple but important tactical change.... I ask the team to drop deeper. This encourages the opposition team to push forward a little more and come at me, this allows my superior players to play through them.
