LiviLion Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 What's with penalties in this game? Never get fucking scored Nice knowing your keeper will save them all, frustrating as f**k when you never score any though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I'm on FM16 and near enough every penalty is saved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Just got offered the Scotland job. Pleasing. First thing to do, as always, is sort out a friendly against Sao Tome and Principe or San Marino and play a full Morton XI before doing anything seriously 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoring penalties during the game is no problem for me, its bloody penalty shoot outs. I'm 8 seasons into my Leeds save and have been involved in about 5 penalty shoot outs, lost every single one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm having the same issue, I just figured my entire team was shite at penalties but I'm glad that I'm not the only one. My in match success rate is around 50% from the spot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I think it was last year's edition - but I mind saying to my mate, I'd never seen a penalty saved. Seen plenty of misses, plenty of goals but never a save of note.Ever since, that's all I've seen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broony88 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 (edited) Started a Leverkusen save, ooooft they have some talent in their ranks. Into my third season and 5 clear at the top after winning the league and getting to the quarters of the champions league last season. Sold a few on and brought a few in. team at the moment is Fraser Forster with David Raya as back up Mayke Tah Engels Wendell Tapia Aranguiz sterling Calhanoglu Brandt Morata got a good few kicking their heels that would be first picks elsewhere but just can't drop many of them. Morata had scored 23 in 14 including three hat tricks before October. My best player last season was Hernandez but Chelsea turned his head and £53 million later he was offski. I'm out the champs league this season draw wasn't kind with Psg and Ac Milan along with Maribor. europa league for me but fancy my chances. Sterling only on loan til end of the season and only just signed Matic but he will be mainly back up. Managed to wheel and deal that squad off £20 odd million transfer kitty at the start of each season. Bayern been in disarray last couple of seasons dropping points all over the shop. Won the league last year by 6 and 5 clear by February this year and Dortmund been disappointing although they have Kasper Dollberg and Isak who have been scoring for fun but defence is shaky.

Always to a different place though, Canada and China off the top of my head. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 It's hard coded to move from Qatar, I believe. Same with brexit, although there's varying degrees to that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 I guided Hibs through my first season unbeaten, winning the Championship, Challenge Cup and Scottish Cup and reaching the first knockout round of the Europa League before being pumped by Schalke. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Got everything sorted after the laptop's brain fart, and I decided to start a Scotland/Accies save with 2 different managers. Why does the Scotland save start off with two friendlies in the middle of when the Euros should be taking place, and you can't pick the squad? All seems a bit daft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Haven't really enjoyed FM17 at all, spent most of the time in the editor trying to create something completely new I've been planning for a while. Started another save with Scotland though, letting you play a small amount of matches and cover a lot of time. Managed to top the World Cup Qualifying group after England had an absolute shitemare. While we pumped Lithuania 7-2, England drew away to Slovenia. When we beat Slovenia at home 1-0, they were stinking Wembley out against Slovakia with a 0-0. They beat us 1-0 at Wembley (close game) to cut the gap a little, but in the 4th round of games, while we scored a 94th minute winner against Slovakia at Hampden, they lost 2-1 in Malta. Lol. Lost again at Hampden to England later on in the campaign, as well as a very poor performance in Slovenia to lose 3-1, but a glowing record elsewhere to top the group by a point as we beat Malta 4-2 in the final game. Burke is an absolute monster in this game. Started trying to play a 3-5-2 with Burke as the second striker, and he's dominating. We went to the World Cup, got drawn with Switzerland, South Korea and Brazil, but had an absolute nightmare. Burke put us 2-0 up in the first half against Switzerland in the opening game, but then pulled his hamstring. Out for two weeks - and the rest of the group stage - but before we found that out Switzerland scored 4 in the second half. Got a 1-1 draw against South Korea, but Brazil absolutely dismantled us 6-1 in the 3rd game to send us home. Then they sacked me. Fucking SFA. Added another manager to start the Euros campaign where we got France, Slovakia, Romania and Luxembourg, and already won our Nations League group, so should be plain sailing to the Euros. Oh aye, and got Kris Doolan 6 caps and 2 goals on his debut. Beautiful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed it for you, but really I don't think getting 6 caps in one game is really beyond Doolan. Edited April 24, 2017 by forameus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I still find the Scottish Premiership unplayable, every team signs an utter random young striker on loan who scores 20 goals a season. I'm in November and there's five of them, at different clubs, already on 15. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get some ridiculous bargains via the loan system since a lot of clubs are happy if you offer 50% of their wages for the season, sometimes 0%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeSAFC Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Has anyone ever won an appeal against a red card? Don't think I have over the last couple of years' games. No, it also normally means another 2 game ban for the player also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
