Taytaz Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I never play players who have just come back from injury as i had a terrible experience with Van der Vaart coming back from a 3month injury and then getting injured again for 2months D: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GillsMan Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I never click on an opposition player during a match to see what his stats are/how many goals he's scored. Because he will end up scoring against me if I do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackEdwards Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 1) I don't buy players without a facepack - I just don't like seeing nothing! 2) I don't buy players with long hair - if they have long hair there should be "get a hair cut" in the interaction.

Ginger Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Always hover the cursor over my teams name when a game is playing. I used to move the mouse clockwise if playing at home and anti-clockwise when playing away. (Have no idea why!?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershie Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Hovering your cursor over the processing bar makes it go faster. Fact. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I never leave the cursor on the pitch during a game, it has to be tucked away up near the pause button. The reason is I think it looks like a giant foam hand that has been thrown onto the pitch by a fan and I'm worried the ball may deflect off it and into the net.

jordypark Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I never check how the league table has changed during my game, or how other results are going. I never give any player the number 13 shirt, and my substitute keeper has to wear the number 31. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anagain Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I always keep the mouse cursor at the bottom right of the match day screen, right on the edge of the screen. I don't use the number 13 when giving out player numbers Snap. I also make sure no black cats walk under ladders at my club. I have this funny belief that form goes different each time I log in to FM. For instance if I am winning games when I play FM for a few hours on a Monday then my form will turn bad in my next bit of play on the Tuesday. On Wednesday I'll get back to form. For this reason I have often, in the past, tried to limit the matches I play every other day. This particular superstition appears to have gone walkabouts in my current save. I just do either always bad or always good. Or maybe I'm just mad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugo_Cienfuegos Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I never select squad number 13 First sub is a defender, second sub an attack minded midfielder, third sub attacker, fourth sub a defensive midfielder and fifth sub a keeper. Been mightily confused with the new 7 sub rules... ALWAYS make three substitutions Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_Spurs Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Always hover the cursor over my teams name when a game is playing. I used to move the mouse clockwise if playing at home and anti-clockwise when playing away. (Have no idea why!?) that has got to be the strangest one ever, and one my favourites! i never have the cursor on the pitch when i play, i dont know why, always move it to behind the goal on the left.

Suge Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I never leave the cursor on the pitch during a game, it has to be tucked away up near the pause button. The reason is I think it looks like a giant foam hand that has been thrown onto the pitch by a fan and I'm worried the ball may deflect off it and into the net. I do this as well. It's better when it's out the way. Also, I always click on every opposition player in the opp instructions screen. Don't know why really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkMan123 Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I don't sign any player with a name I can't pronounce - mainly because when they score an important winner I want to be able to go mental and shout his name repeatedly without struggling to say it causing the moment to be gone! I also do not sign any Turkish players and sell every outfield player once they reach 30. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 If I am 1-0 down, I wont change my tactics without hitting pause. Whenever I go to change my tactics around the 55-60 minute mark, if I don't hit pause.. it was just skip to the 80 minute mark without anything happening!
