Help Me!

Ok so here goes, I am Portsmouth I lost my first 3 games of the season by single goals and created very few chances and lost 1-0, 1-0,2-0. Tried out a 3-5-2 setting it up like Portsmouth play for real and an attacking 4-4-2. Changed to the default 4-4-2 and managed a 0-0 draw at home with west brom.

Then changed to this from easyone;

Now have beaten 2-1 Aston Villa, beat Fenerbache 1-0 (last minute goal) and scunthrope 1-0 in the league cup! But my main issue still is lack of chances and also my fullbacks are playing *****! Johnson keeps getting 5's! Also does getting one striker to hold up the ball effectively see them used as a target man, thats what I have tried with Crouch.

you are obviosally cheating someone would never get 70 gls in 58 games with an average rating of 9.18 CHEAT

If you read his thread you will find thats not his record, its easyone's and yeah a striker COULD score 60/70 in FMH08

Fisrtly who the hell are you?

And secondly, it is possible to score that many, and it IS impossible to cheat on FMH!

How can you cheat on FMH???? Tell the match engine what to do?

Easyone's post of that tactic did state that he had only ever tried it with ac milan, its quite easy with ac milan playing any tactic so those stats dont necessarily mean the tactic will work, i'd advise trying St Dazzle's 4-5-1 which is in the same thread, works a treat!

Give players a chance to gel. You changed tactics 4 times in 4 games. You have found one the team seems to play it too. but give them another 10 or so games to get used to the formation. Then you may even be able to tell what the problem is.

Portsmouth has many crappy players. I have tried almost all tactics and players like Crouch, Defoe, Utaka and Johnson are very dissapointing.

Way to go like people said actually read the thread. I only included those stats for comparison and for people who didn't know the tactic what can be achieved with it.

Yeah guess that is true' date=' I just panicked I have had bad starts in the PC versions before but never this bad lol!

Yeah Defoe, Diarra, James and Kaboul are the only players who played consistent.
