Beekimov Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 @knap , I conceed a lot of goals in my first season in the Premier League (playing with Dulwich Hamlet) (odds are 2000-1) So i'm looking for a solid tactic with a stable defense, and not too attacking. My wingers and attackers are quitte fast. What can you advise me? Trying to survive this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted January 26 Author Share Posted January 26 @Beekimov Have you checked Genie scout your team rating? If you send me your game I can check Mid season slump? @agreed has recently been in similar position Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
agreed Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) @Beekimov is it your first season in the prem? first season is rough when you gain promotions so fast. first season in prem i came 9th with 50 pts. just gotta hang in there somehow. i think that was using HGF pts104. season after i came 7th with 59 pts and qualified for the conference league. next season i finished 7th again on 66 pts but won the conference league. then 5th with 68 pts but won the europa league. then 3rd with 74 pts and reached CL semis. this was all with HGF pts 104. this season i was doing really well with the same tactic, but after the southampton game i switched to knaps latest WOF 107pts and have been flying. some of the losses were me playing my second team aswell, and in terms of squad ability i'm probably like top 6 or so, still have nowhere near the best team in the league however this all came about after hitting the classic mid season slump every season, i never really knew how to get out of it before. on previous versions i'd switch tactic for a bit but it didn't make any difference on this version, and even though my players weren't THAT tired as i rotate a lot, they were still below optimal and the form showed that every season - so what i did was any time you have a game in 3 days time, go into the rest tab in training and sort by condition, highlight any player who's about 75% condition or below and rest for 2 days (it will probably say 3 days as you have an automatic rest day after games anyway). this way come the following game everyone is almost fully fit again. if i have a game that's 4 days + away i don't do anything different, the fitness is usually ok by then anyway. might be a well known thing to be honest but i've only just discovered it and the difference in form is night and day edit - basically this - you can see i have sunderland in 3 days so as soon as i finish the game i just played today go straight into training > rest, i'm highlighting these players and resting for 2 days Edited January 26 by agreed 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

knap Posted January 26 Author Share Posted January 26 @agreed Is it worth posting the link you sent me re mid season slump? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
agreed Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 @knap it could be helpful yeh. Although that was mainly just reducing training intensity rather than just simply resting like I'm doing now. Both methods got me out of the slump I just find the resting easier as the training intensity method you had to check back every few days and change it back to normal. Probably more beneficial to player growth that way though instead of resting, although my players have still been improving very well despite resting during busy periods 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeacemakerBR Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Hi @knap, There is a user called Gerrard who tested a successful 4-2-3-1 tactic on the FM Arena forum. The tactic is yours, as your username even appears when opening the game. He was asked about it, and said he was you. And truth? I didn't believe it.

andreasloesnes Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 @knap playing in wales - usually underperforming xG and massively underperforming xPts by the end of the season. 2nd/3rd favourite to win the league, but often ending up in 3rd/4th.. noticed that it's the case for every save i've done this year, no tactic is REALLY clicking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
