knap Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 Still ARGUS P102. Take get stuck in off, change from hard to easy tackling, change BWM to CM as hard tackling is hard coded for BWM. TBH I don't bother but is an option if too many red yellow cards, but many other reasons and warning and fining helps reduce aggression. and helps with discipline.

knap Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 As I use attribute masking I never consider player filters and they need changing depending upon level. I use scout reports or trials for expired contracts to find players In LL I have used players with 1 determination and they play very well, may not be good for development but high determination is not even always necessary. I tend to look at ability and potential and a few key attributes such as Pace and then a few for position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually take off left or right AF with lowest game rating, so I have one poacher and one AF for attacking diversity. Sometimes I feel I play even better with 10 men.

knap Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 I use attribute masking so filters do not work that well, and not sure they are of much benefit. I tend to just use the star system and scout reports for hidden attributes. I prefer just to look at a few key attributes such as pace acceleration and decisions and then positional attributes and the green positional dots. FC Porto are a top side and the good player forum would have many ideas for good buys or finding newgens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 PILGRIMAGE 343 LPOOLP104 or I tend to use GOODBYE 343 P108. You can use ARGUS 343 P102 but a little more defensive than the other two. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 The major problem with reaching PL is reputation is unrealistically slow to rise for transfers. The consequence is transfer targets ask silly wages then go to Championship sides on realistic wages (about third less). Also even loan players prefer to play in Championship which makes even less sense. The 1st PL season the squad is just about a top League 1 side but I did spend £5m on a PL quality striker.

knap Posted October 16, 2018 Author Share Posted October 16, 2018 No - even when they are not skinned they lose the ball cross goal. In fact by trying to sometimes correct defensive elements you weaken the attacking elements, so no risk no reward. No pre match instructions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
