Hi - I had the same issue with background images. You will find the client object browser here:
driveletter:\Users\yourname\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\skins\FM24 Base Skin (Transparent)\panels\client_object
You then need to increase the transparency number from '0' to your own preference. I went with '0.85'
<widget class="inner_contrast_box" appearance="boxes/custom/interface/content/secondary/paper" transparency="0.85">
The only annoying thing is that some of the sections (e.g. transfers, club info) are not transparent for me. Not sure if anyone knows how to change these?! Have attached an examples of it working and not.

I think you do not have the right support from the central Duo. The DLP-D will stay rather near the central of the pitch in attacking situation and it will not provide the right support. The AP-S will stay in the middle but I do not think he will provide any Forwards runs in order to unlock the defense. The DF will stay deep so he will provide a link between the midfield and the attack but I do not think he will provide support. On the other hand the AF will be isolated. Try to understand the Passing network in order to see the link between players and watch the shots in order to understand if you lack support.
Thanks for this, will do. Time to study a few games and not rely on just stats.

No problem- that's what we are here for
Let us know how you get on and how it all goes.
Hi @Dr. Hook I tried a few of your suggestions and there was an initial small improvement but I have since moved to Colchester where I am getting quite badly beaten! I seem to be scoring a little more but I struggle to dominate games. Currently on a 6 game losing streak! Any more advice will be appreciated, sorry in advance for poor quality images. Trying to make a possession based 442 work. Thanks.

There are a couple of glaring issues here. Yes, you'll see lots of the ball with that setup, but you only have one goal scorer. Two playmakers in midfield mean they are almost always looking pass, and the DF will get into the box, but later. You should probably look to have a midfield runner here, as you are using wingers and you need more than one body pushing into the box with the attack. Secondly, you are using retain possession as a shout. This creates a lot of passing laterally and backwards, but since it is geared for you to not lose the ball, you will stifle any forward creativity or passes into key areas. Add to that a structured approach, which reduces creative freedom across the board and you get what you are seeing.
As an alternative, you can try one of your wide men as an inside forward to help with that. At the very least, drop the "retain" shout (that ideally is used only to see out a match or hang on to a lead against a team which is inferior to you), and see how it gets on. If that doesn't do it, then try adding some creative freedom to your midfield. Finally, tinker with your roles and duties to get a more attacking oriented setup while still maintaining your possession.
Thanks @Dr. Hook for taking to time to reply and for your helpful advice, I will certainly take it on board. The retain possession point now seems obvious!

I would really appreciate any advice.
I have jumped from fm 12 to 17 and I am struggling a little bit with my possesion tactic. I seem to enjoy lots of the ball but not much creativity it seems..
Am I doing something obvious wrong? I have a controlled, highly structured approach. I have attached a couple of pictures with the match stats one used as a typical example of how a match is panning out for me. Thanks in advance for any help.

I in no way mean this is a nasty, condescending, supercilious etc manner. However as it is something that is slowly but surely slipping into our language it has therefore become for me personally what you might term a horrifically annoying pet peeve. I also want to hold my hands up prior to making my statement that i am in no way a perfect spelling or user of grammar and so on. My diction can be awfully limited at times. I also want to admit that this is a football forum and a what's more a funny posts thread so spelling and grammar are hardly important. HOWEVER, there is no "must of" "should of" "could of" they are all "could have", "must have", should have."
I detest people trying to point score by pointing out the faults in other people's writing, especially on the internet. The person might have been stopped from going to school by his parents. He/she might simply have had a teacher who is completely grammar ignorant etc. Might be dyslexic like my brother is, you should see some of what he writes freehand! They might be from a different country and all things considered be doing a very good job at getting their point across. Or as it is then internet he/she might simply not give a toss about the spelling and grammar and rightly so. When on the net as long as you get the gist across it is hardly important now is it? I hold my hands up to my terribly petty anal attention to this specific of grammar issue and apologise for any offense i may have given.
That rubbish aside it's a funny post. I am sure the Young Boys are more than happy at finally having found a Daddy. As long as it isn't in the mold of Scum (as in the film) that is.
I am not sure whether you are joking? Are you actually being serious?
Your grammar and use of English is poor and you have the nerve to criticise someone else?
'The pot calling kettle black' springs to mind...
