urbanjunkie Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Great job chief. In my first demo game, signed van der Vaart. Sadly, he agreed to go on loan to Roma in my second game - my second game being my more serious attempt at being immersed into the game. I'll post more details later re: tactics, approach and players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doygster Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Started my season the other night so far i am 7 games in and sitting 3rd in the table behind chelsea and liverpool respectively. My first job was to try and raise some money as for some reason the budget seems very low? Also i thought we were 1 of the fewer clubs without any debt? So i've sold: Pavlyuchenko, Hutton, Obika and Mason. Loaned out: Rose, Cox, Bostock and Huddlestone (1.1 million with option to buy for 3.4 million) Signed: Jarolim (Bond recommended him and hes ok for backup to Palacios), Borriello (loan with option to buy) and Buanonotte (loan) Playing a 4,3,1,2 GK: Gomes RB: Corluka/Naughton (seems like he could be good) (set as auto fullback) LB: Ekotto/Bale (set as auto fullback) CB: King (when hes fit keeps getting injured)/Woodgate (set as defend central def) CB: Bassong (set as defend central def) RM: Lennon (set as winger attack) LM: Modric (set as wide midfielder support) CM: Palacios (set as ball winning midfielder defend) AM: Krancjar/Gio (set as support attacking midfielder) ST: Crouch (set as support target man) ST: Defoe (set as attack advanced forward) So far my results are: West Ham - Lost 1-0 Burnley - Won 3-1 Bolton - Won 1-0 Bristol Rovers LC - Won 4-0 Chelsea - Lost 3-0 Aston Villa - Won 4-2 Man City - Won 2-1 Scum LC - Lost 2-1 Everton - Won 1-0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

urbanjunkie Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Decided not to sell anyone, basically to see who is worth retaining when I start my proper career game on the 30th October. I signed David Beckham £625K. Again, just as an experiment. van Nistlerooy and Guti are also easily signed if you want a bit of Real Madrid. As mentioned in an early post - van dar Vaart was missed thanks to Roma, but I will make him my priority next time around. So, for now I simply have the original squad + Becks. First thing. Sort out training. Then get your backroom staff sorted to up those stars. Again, as this is a demo, I've not done too much in the way of getting rid of deadwood (although I did sack Sherwood). In the full game, its imperative to get it right. I might get rid of Kevin Bond and get in one of the many top class coaches as an assistant that are available. What I'd like to see in this thread mind, is not only you chaps sharing any decent finds (re: players) but also any decent staff you happen across too. Anyway, to business: I'm playing a 4-3-1-2 formation. My own. Philosophy - Fluid Starting Strategy - Standard Passing Style - Shorter Creative Freedom - More Expressive Closing Down - Press More Tackling, Marking, Crossing, Roaming are all default (and player specific). Defensive Line - Normal (couple of notches to the left of the middle) Width - Normal (a slight notch to the right of the middle) Tempo - Quick Time Wasting - Sometimes Focus Passing - Mixed Counter Attack - Yes Formation: Goalkeeper - Defend Full Back - Automatic (DR) Full Back - Automatic (DL) Ball Playing Defender - Defend (DC) Ball Playing Defender - Defend (DC) Winger - Support (MR) Winger - Support (ML) Central Midfielder - Support (MC) Advanced Playmaker - Attack (AMC) Deep Lying Forward - Support (ST) Advanced Forward - Attack (ST) Best line-up? Well, Woodgate is back from injury so he'll go into the side soon enough. And Niko Kranjcar is currently out injured - however for the sake of consistency the following team has been the team that's performed for me thus far this season (rather than me posting what I think is the best team from my squad): ---------------------- J. Defoe -------------------------- R. Keane--------------------- ------------------------------------- L. Modric ---------------------------------------- N. Kranjcar ------------------------- W. Palacios -----------------------------A. Lennon B. Assou-Ekotto ---------- S.Bassong ----------- L. King --------------------- V.Corluka -------------------------------------- Gomes ----------------------------------------- Pre-season: (H) Tottenham Reserves W 2-0 (N) Swansea D 0-0 (A) Leicester W 4-0 (A) Morecambe W 4-0 (A) Piacenza W 8-0 (A) Brescia W 5-0 (A) Ascoli W 7-0 Prem + Cups: (H) West Ham United W 2-1 (A) Burnley W 1-0 (H) Bolton W 1-0 (H) Southend W 2-0 (League Cup) (A) Chelsea L 2-1 Ok. Early days. But the team is shaping up ok. Finding its feet. The tactic and the requirements are probably too much for the current batch of players. Especially with the need for more expressive football. But I'm empire building here and want - over time - for new better players to slot in and for the team as a unit to improve. Football played is decent enough and I'm making very subtle changes at the moment, mostly concerning the wing positions. I'm undecided whether to have the players as wingers or wide midfielders - but I guess the solution here is simple. If its someone like Lennon, he should play to his strengths (winger) and if its Kranjcar then he should slot in as a wide mid. What I need to keep an eye out is what type of job they do there and whether I should have then cutting inside or hugging the touchline. Again - feel free to share your opinions on getting the best out of the players. Palacios is a beast in the middle. Luka has yet to hit devastating heights, but is scoring in the high '7's. But not scoring yet. I'm impressed with the work ethic (having so many players on 'support' is a worthy option). However, the problem is - for all the possession and decent defending and for the abundance of chances being made - we are not putting them away. One on One's the main bugbear with plenty missed. I should have beaten Chelsea. The only difference was this: They took their chances. My players didn't. Some of the shooting in fact is weak. So maybe this is a training issue. However - what combo are you guys playing up front and what 'ROLE' and 'DUTY' are you assigning. It might simply be down to confidence/confusion based on my instructions to the players. Regarding in game strategy - I start at standard, then move onto control and depending on how the game is progressing, shout out from the touchline and shift between attack and overload and back to control again. Anyways. Will back with another update later this morning or probably tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbanjunkie Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Also worth mentioning that my tactic was shambolic for 45 mins against West Ham. I went 1-0 down after 20 seconds. I gave 'em a b*llocking at half-time and they tore the Hammers apart in the second half (missed countless chances). Since then, it keeps improving. Iwas thinking of scrapping it...proves you need patience in this game. EDIT: Have made some changes to my tactic. It's evolving. More tomorrow on this.

In-game, go to tactics, manage tactics, import, and then select this file. Then select it in game. Your done! This is my first-choice line-ip: GK: Gomes RB: Corluka LB: Ekottou LCB: King RCB: Woodgate RM: Lennon LM: Kranjcar LCM: Modric RCM: Palacios LST: Keane RST: Crouch If you play Defoe instead of Keane, change his role to poacher. With any new players, you will have to look at thire attributes and maybe change thire role. Good Luck! This is my first tactic and could well be poor. Uploaded on request of AlexSkree.

vasilli07 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Lennon is not underrated, he has been upgraded. Look at his teamwork, work rate and crossing. You must also remember his pace takes up a high % of his pa. I used FRMTE to check. His PA has also been upped while Bentley has been lowered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal_2111 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Lennon is a fantastic player in FM10, because his pace can absolutely destroy teams. The same applies to Walcott, Agbonlahor etc. Whilst his stats may look pretty bad, the pace he has means he is much better than he looks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
urbanjunkie Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 What role/position are you giving Lennon? And are you chaps having him cut in or run into channels? Also - happy with my tactic, but bloody hell the amount of time my forwards shot at the goalkeeper when its easier to place it to the left or right. Especially Defoe. Anyone had any similar problems?

MANIBOP Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Modric out of this world so far. Bassong gets on the lot of near post corners without scoring. Naughton looks good at RB. Agree about Defoe shooting at keeper Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

urbanjunkie Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Modric is consistent but not amazing, but then I'm playing behind the front two in the 'hole'. Lennon hugging the touchline? Really? Does he cut in at all naturally or does he just cross the ball in? I have him cutting in. He's averaging about 7.10 at the moment. Results since the Chelsea defeat: (H) W 2-1 v Villa (A) D 1-1 v Man City (A) W 3-2 v Burnley (League Cup) (H) D 1-1 v Everton (A) D 1-1 v Sunderland (H) W 3-1 v Blackburn Rovers (H) W 4-0 v Wolves (H) W 3-1 aet v Man Utd (League Cup) Not too shabby. But tweaking still required. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWB935 Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Well I guess I'll have to try lennon a bit more. I was playing bentley. I do prefer Lennon but my coach recommended bentley instead so I'll have another try. thanks guys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANIBOP Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Lennon gets to byeline and crosses in. Palacios looking good too. Its early days and using the demo for what it is a demo.

urbanjunkie Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Looks like my side is finally settling down. Bale has been triffic on the left hand side of midfield too. And Defoe is finally finding the net with more accomplished ease. Results continued... (A) L 2-1 v Arsenal (A) W 3-0 v Wigan (H) W 4-2 v Fulham (A) W 4-0 v Birmingham 14 Prem games played. Second in the table. Played 14 Won 9 Drn 3 Lost 2 For 29 Ag 12 30 Pts Unbeaten at WHL. JD has 10 goals in 11 (5) games. Keane 8 Palacios / Crouch 4 Bassong 3 Modric / Pav 2 Bale / Lennon / Jenas / King 1 Still trying to get Modric more involved with the goals. Wilson continues to be a beast in midfield, covering so much ground and involved heavily with passing and getting forward. Best averages: Bale 7.70 Keane 7.62 Bassong 7.50 Palacios 7.38 Modric 7.34 Dawson yet to play for me. Huddlestone - who was involved heavily in my first demo game has hardly figured in this one, mainly because I play one in central midfield. I agree with what people say about Naughton. he will be very very useful. Hutton is another one not being used too much. And Jenas too has sat on the bench often. Anyone playing Gio? I think in my full game proper I will look to sell the following: Pav, Hutton, Bentley. Unless anyone of you chaps are going to tell me they are worthy squad members.

urbanjunkie Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Koke and Keko? Sounds like a dance move. What positions? Clubs? Oh...and 7-0??? What tactic are you using? I'm curious to know what experiences people are having with style of play as it seems on the one had the Spurs squad is a good one, but others seem to be having difficulty.

petey_g Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I think one of the things about Defoe is on his preferred moves list it has stuff about taking first time shots. He generally doesn't take the time to set himself and hit the corner, which can sometimes mean although he takes it earlier and might surprise the keeper, his accuracy may suffer as a consequence. If it's a real problem, retraining him might help. On my game I sold Hutton (I thought Naughton would provide good enough cover), Jenas (brought in Becks and Van der Vaart as replacements) and some of the reserve team flops. Looking at what I can get for Pav but I think I'll keep him as Obika isn't quite up to standard yet. Might look to bring in some better Yplayers on the actual game, the U18 squad is terrible. At the moment I'm playing a control 4-4-2 with Lennon as a winger, modric on the left as a wide mid. cutting in from the touchline, VDV as an advanced playmaker and Palacios as a ball winner. Seems to be working well so far, 3-0 against the hammers and 2-0 away to burnley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallclone Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Playing a 4,3,1,2 GK: Gomes RB: Corluka/Naughton (seems like he could be good) (set as auto fullback) LB: Ekotto/Bale (set as auto fullback) CB: King (when hes fit keeps getting injured)/Woodgate (set as defend central def) CB: Bassong (set as defend central def) RM: Lennon (set as winger attack) LM: Modric (set as wide midfielder support) CM: Palacios (set as ball winning midfielder defend) AM: Krancjar/Gio (set as support attacking midfielder) ST: Crouch (set as support target man) ST: Defoe (set as attack advanced forward) I'm playing more or less the same as this and have had a terrible start.

urbanjunkie Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 My tactic, as described in previous posts has changed subtly.

Azeryk- Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Ok, I thought I would post how I've done so far. As anyone who has read the Spurs thread before might know I really don't like messing around with tactics so Mr Bond has done all of them using the standard 4-4-2 formation. Signings: Jonathan Cristaldo Marc Muniesa Iker Muniain All youths, Cristaldo looks very good for the future and was quite cheap, so was DC Muniesa was looks alright for just 17. Muniain was the risk, cost £4M at just 16 years old but I thought it's only a demo so why not risk it. He somehow scored 7 times in 3(2) friendlies :S Results so far: Reserves 3-1 Swansea 1-0 Leicester 5-0 Morcambe 4-1 Piacenza 10-1 !! Brescia 2-0 Ascoli 4-1 League Results: West Ham 3-0 Burnley 3-0 Bolton 2-1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nev147 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Ok guys how good is Modric! I'm a big European team and my scouts rating him very highly at 4 stars, they seem to think he is one of the best attacking midfielders in the game. Does him dominate games/consistant performances/goals/assists? I guess you guys will play him in differnt positions but can he perfrom as a AML.

Da_Funk Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Question: why not Corluka CB, since his poor crossing, dribbling and off the ball and good pure defender stats indeed? Corluka+King+Bassong+Woodgate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azeryk- Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Is it me or are Spurs easier to play this season, in the past finishing top in your first season was a very hard thing to do; yet this season myself and several people here are already making a mockery of the Premier League - I know none of us have got to the end of the season yet but I would expect most would retain their positions.

urbanjunkie Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I'm thinking the same thing.

Da_Funk Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 It will be nice to experiment. With Modric as Midfielder Left. Since he has "run with balls on the left", the different performances/movement with touchline/cuts in/into channel. Same with Giovani on the right side (he has moves into channel PPM).

JesterSTJ Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Yep im planning on being Spurs once the full game comes out, looks like a fun team to be. Will sell Pav, Jenas, Hutton and Bentely which will give me some more funds to work with. Also good guide there Urban, very helpful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
