bomma Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 would a new patch help, pointless asking would a screenshot showing us the results against the top 4 teams (and city and spurs) help - yes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Edwards Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 It's deliberate. We don't like arsenal so the game is coded that way. That's also why all the arsenal squad are underrated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Gribble Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Tried changing your tactics for the games? I've just started playing as Arsenal, and my usual tactic is similar to the real life Arsenal, lots of short passing, controlling the possession and tempo etc. This works great against smaller teams, but when I had Celtic in the Champions League it wasn't nearly as effective, so I switched to a direct counter attack based style and scored twice in the second half to go on to win 2-0. Just need to adapt around each game, dominating Man Utd isn't going to work nearly as well as it will Wigan for example, you'll need to defend more and it'll be harder to retain possession and create tactics.

killerduck Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 Cheers mate maybe i need to do that,but on the other fm's it wasnt half as tactical,i mean i used tatics like that against the smaller and big clubs but this one seems far too indepth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinDoyleForEngland Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I've just won the EPL with Arsenal on my first season on FM10. Dzeko was a great 'target man'. De Rossi a great 'ball winner'. Signed Mexes at the end of January after a mass exodus of deadwood, and performed superbly in the final half of the season. However my financial outlay will result in this team remaining, and very very minimal transfers come 10/11. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
killerduck Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 how much u pay for de rossi? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinDoyleForEngland Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 how much u pay for de rossi? £32 million over 48 months A bit expensive. But in my eyes it is what Arsenal need, a tenacious ball-winner who can also knock it about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicNumber Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 not expensive at all i'd love to be able to get him for that much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale Gribble Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 My point further proved by the fact I was 2-1 down to Chelsea, down to 9 men after Diaby and Senderos were sent off, but turned it around to 3-2 after setting my strategy to overload, pushing the defensive line up, pumping balls forward and looking for the overlap. Incredibly satisfying win. I think perhaps in FM2010 you are expected to adapt more to teams before and during the game, but fortunately the touchline shouts and quick strategy changes make this very easy. Fantastic new feature of the game and working much better than I expected. I'm really loving FM2010 because of this actually. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
