Law_Man Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Congrats on winning the CL! Interesting that you're playing Moreno as the Poacher and Haaland as the PF. I would have thought it would be the other way round. What's your thinking behind that? Also, do you have a link to the badges pack? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysafc Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) That was my trouble with Sunderland in FM19. Getting them to the top 4 in the Premier League was easy but I never thought we were established. Our best players were from the top teams they no longer wanted, we could not compete for the best players. After winning the Premier League and Champions League you should be a little closer, but you will never touch Man City I think.

kroshot Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 like the look of this tactic just got promoted with Birmingham first season need a major overhaul got around 30m to spend, this is my team which got 9 players in the team of the year in the championship gk-schubert ,rb colin,cb dean,roberts,lb Pedersen,rw xadas,cm sunjic,crowley/Bellingham lw trincao,cf bozenik,brewster subs-bela,c.gardner,clark-salter,villalba,harding,j.justin,jutkiewicz had brewster,clark-salter,j.justin on loan need a lot of players in any recommendations welcome.

A 16 year old valued at say £140,000. His attributes are not good enough to get in my first team (even in Division One) but I can see his potential . I made an offer for him and they wanted £20m for him. If I had £20m I would spend it on something much greater than that. In FM19 I had a 16 year old midfielder (Bali Mumba) valued at £160,000 the board try to sell him for £350,000 to £500,000. I took control of player sales. After 2 seasons in the Premier he is worth £25m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Kroshot, I remember you from my older tactics, still using Birmingham.... ‘I go to transfers, listed or loan, only players that are interested, pick who you think is best. If you narrow it down to transfer listed players you can get them cheaper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kroshot Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 yeah still Birmingham, club I support only spent 4m in the championship xadas 1.5m,trincao 1.5m bozenik 1m rest players on loan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysafc Posted November 24, 2019 Author Share Posted November 24, 2019 Loans can be used well in FM, maybe as in real life, as it allows us to get players we could not afford to buy. I think most clubs outside the top 4 should use this wisely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
miangelo Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 is it possible to play with tactical home for away games? Or it is not advisable? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pablo1983 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Just re-read the OP and realised I was making a massive mistake with this tactic "I use 2 versions named Home - Away. At the start of the season Blyth were sometimes 3/1 for an away game so i went with the Away Tactic. After a few games we became favorites for all games home and away so i have just stuck with the Home tactic. So maybe it should be called Favorites or Underdog. With Sunderland against Everton i used the Away version had had equal shots as they did but lost 1-0. I thought it was a good performance but my board did not". i found i was really struggling away from home especially against teams from down the bottom of the league as I was using the away tactic for every away game even when I was favorite FFS Edited November 24, 2019 by pablo1983 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysafc Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 Yes it would be better to rename them... something like 4-4-2 FAV and 4-4-2 Underdog. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 2 seasons in the Premier he is worth £25m. It is very realistic, because the other club also see his potential. You can still have him with cheaper price by unsettling the young lad though, which would be very easy to pull off if your club has high enough reputation.

RM2000 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Good season so far, the defeats against United and Spurs were about total missing out of the chances i got. But overall i think i am overachieving and could be happy so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i think i am better or the opponent leads i switch over to home. Check my results. When i was behind to the Spurs by 3 a switched over to home and got two goals and i think i was missing a penalty too. They couldnt stand a chance after switching. You have to get a feeling for your team and what you can expect. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andysafc Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) That is right, there is not always a Set way. You have to go with your own feelings. Some good high scores there. Sometimes it just does not work. if using the home tactic and cannot score, moving up to Attacking often helps. If with the away tactic you look the better team, switch to home tactic.

I would highly recommend using the home tactic in away games if you feel you have a better chance of winning. as I said.... ‘they should be renamed favourites (home) underdog (away) ‘by underdog I mean more than 2/1 so you should only use the away tactic when you are underdog or playing one of the top teams at home.
