Think I'm going to leave this and come back to it after some more updates Yeah, both are affecting my enjoyment as well. Hopefully they'll have this somewhat resolved through the week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Got this at the weekend, went Burton. After 15 games I'm the only English side yet to win a league game, drawing 4 and losing 11. Of the 11 I've lost, 9 are by 1 goal. Liam Boyce has scored 3 goals all season despite being tipped pre-season as a potential top goalscorer. I've tried almost everything, high line, low line, standard line, high press, low block, short passing, direct passing, wing play, 2 up front, 3 up front and nothing seems to make a massive difference to the outcome of my performances. Also, might just be the players I tried to loan but seems to be very few players available for nothing in the loan market. I got two players in on loan but they cost me about £6K in wages and I struggled to find any quality at all that clubs were happy to let go for nothing. I hope that's not the way of it because it makes going smaller clubs extremely hard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly the advice in last years game was to setup a tactic and play as many pre-season games as possible to build up familiarity.

But doesn't matter if I play a low, narrow 4-5-1 or an attacking high press 4-3-3, I still lose the games by the odd goal or sneak a draw. I sincerely hope it's the games problem and not just the fact that I am shite at it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankChickens1 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Much like 19 - the game has some helpful new features which make it 'better' than previous incarnations, but in terms of visual presentation and progress of ME against an acceptable trajectory it has receeded massively. The guys at SI are total wankstains who are killing a great franchise in every way other than commercially (arguably the most important), due to a total lack of care and a lack of attention to what has made the series enjoyable over last two decades +. The pathetic tone of their forum says it all. I would love to see the series crash and burn to be picked up by someone worthy of the title, but that will clearly not happen any time soon as, buoyed by faux interacitons with semi-intelligent pro-footballers they sell millions of copies to people who do one season saves with City or Liverpool and contently stop there . Yes I've put nearly 100 hours into this shitfest already 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Sacked at Burton after going 20 games without a win (12 loses, 8 draws). Walked straight into the ICT job where I've drawn my first 3 games 0-0, 1-1 and 0-0. This is now me: 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I didn't mean in this specific FM just ones in the past. I'm playing 20 but using a database that enabled scotland down to the SoS league so I guess there's something wrong with that. Guess it's time to start again on the normal DB! Edited November 26, 2019 by C. Muir 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Central Belt Caley Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Playing as Inverness started the league really well sitting second after 7/8 games then get gubbed 4-1 and 2-0 off Arbroath and Alloa. I’m probably just shite but it seems hard to be able to keep a good run of form going 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came back from 2 down to draw 2-2 with Croatia, then beat Wales 2-1 before getting rid rotten 5-0 by England but thankfully had already done enough to qualify. A Mikey Johnston extra time winner against Switzerland took me to the quarter final before a 3-0 exit to Spain. Done much better than I thought I would though. I also had a player sent off in every match at the tournament This was my Euros 23 man squad anyway. Onto the Nations League again, I'm in a group with Finland, Romania and Czech Rep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping my main save on hold for a few days until match engine issues are fixed. Good - both of these issues have been doing my nut in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieStevenson Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 My 17th in the world Scotland squad have just drawn 0-0 away at Malta. All of the hard work undone with one game.

RandomGuy. Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 21/22 season ends with a 5th placed finish. Weird old season as we started brutal, turned amazing, then ended horrendously. My big signings from last season, Nicky Devlin and Scott Martin, are both transfer listed after just a year. Devlin has interest but no offers, while Martin is heading to Dundee for £200k. Made £75k off him which is decent. Michael O'Halloran is heading back to Australia for £175k aswell, while David Wotherspoon moved to QOS for £35k, neither played at all last season really, just odd appearances here and there. Trying to decide what to do with May. Hit 12 in season one, 8 in season 2 and didn't score a single goal in number 3. He's earning more than Lyndon Dykes who is first choice, despite never outperforming him. I'm nervous as f**k about selling him as hes a Team Leader, and I've already let two go in Wotherspoon and MOH, so think I'll keep him around simply to keep the peace. Could really be doing with his wages now though. Already agreed to sign a young English midfielder on a PCA, was on loan last season and done alright. Also managed to sign Anthony Ralston permanently, was my best RB for two seasons on loan, then I tried to replace him with Devlin and Ralston wanted to stay at Celtic. Didn't work out for either party as I got a shite RB and Ralston didnt play a single game, he was released in the Summer so I didn't hesitate. Only other confirmed signing was Greg Docherty, also released this Summer, hes played about 12 games in the past two seasons for Rangers but I'm hoping his potential is still there, he'll replace Martin in the squad and hopefully won't be as poor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestfieldBairn Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Started as Tottenham, made a great start to the season sitting third closely behind Man City and Tottenham. Lost 1-0 to Liverpool in the Carabao cup and since then I’ve never recovered. Lost at home to Newcastle and Sheffield United. Drew away to Bournemouth and Lille in the Champions league and I’ve fallen to 8th. Very difficult can’t stop this rot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
