If your intention is to create overloads on the left and drawing the opposition that way, is your AMR ever in a position to capitalise on the space that it creates for him?
Yes, I typically use Griezmann there. Brilliant off the ball (18), anticipation (15) and decisions (15).
Starting to realise that this is probably due to my reputation more than anything. There may be a tweak or two required tactically but certain that it shouldn’t be underperforming as much as it is. Didn’t even get through the weakest CL group in history. My computer’s on the verge of going out the window.0 -

Trequartista do a lot of sideway movements compared to a F9 which sole focus is to become a CAM. I also do not like the two CWB with IW combination the CWB will just end up occupying the same space as the IW coupled that with the mezzala you will end up with a lot of players at the wide areas and no one attacking the middle. Playing with two CWB is also very risky itself. Mind showing your full tactic?
Regarding the lot of players in wide areas too - it’s been an intention to create a overload. Particularly on the left obviously.

Not at my computer at the moment buddy, but I’ll fire over later.
Did start with a F9 but couldn’t get him firing. Him being Messi. Barely scored or assisted so changed to a trequartista. There was plenty of movement around him but barely contributed as at F9. Found trequartista to be far more effective for him. Do prefer F9 myself but taking what I can at the moment. 😄
CWB wise - I do actually have the left one as a WB on support now.
Screenshot attached has changed slightly but it’s the general idea. Namely on IW (R) and WB (R) roles. Player instructions pretty straightforward and nothing out of the ordinary. No OI on.

If Messi is playing in a way which causes him to drop deep, wouldn't it make sense to have one, or possibly even both of the wingers as an inside forward?
That’s what I had initially matey and couldn’t get it to work for the life of me. Doing that has always been a favourite front 3 of mine on FM, but not having a lot of success doing it on this version for some reason.
Changed them to IWs and both positions perform better. Particularly so on left. Might try IF on the right again.
Can’t see any reason why it wouldn’t click. Sending me insane. 😄

Do you create enough (quality) chances and it’s just the conversion rate which is bad or do you struggle creating high quality goal scoring opportunities in general? Maybe some insights on your avg xG to avg shots would be interesting.
Also did you create enough overlapping partnerships to further increase your player movement? Especially in central attack and on the flanks?
I’m not at my computer at the moment but I’ll ping over some screenshots later.
The attached is loosely how I’m playing. Keep tweaking bits but it’s the general idea. Overlaps on where/when appropriate. Messi is trequartista and drops deep. Positive mentality, shorter passing, standard tempo, high line and press.

I don’t see any issues having good results and competing for Titels with top teams like Barca.
as I obviously don’t know your history of playing i could just assume you usually go for the weaker side and build them up to success as you did with Catania. Playing with established top teams like Barca may demand other tactical settings then uprising stars do due to their overall standing.
best would properbly be to simply share your tactics
Also it would be important to know where actually struggle. Is it scoring goals? Do you concede too much?
Yes, that is usually the way I go; typically long saves along those lines.
May well be something due to reputation, but I am trying to play in a traditional Barca way in a system which suits the players. (4123, Postive, shorter passing, high block, expressive etc). It’s nothing out of the ordinary whatsoever and suits the individual and collective skillset(s). Would be very similar to how most experienced players would set up with Barca. Just want to play good football.
Struggling with putting the ball in the net, consistently underperforming to bottom half sides (not winning those games), general lack of control on the ball. Seems the only guaranteed way to score is to have an AF and Pass Into Space on as per usual. Obviously not the way I want to play.
Driving me up the wall.

Is anybody else having pretty sudden issues with their performances on the game? Particularly tactically.
I’m a very experienced player and know the game inside out. On two previous FM21 saves I’ve won the Libetadores with Rosario Central and Serie A with Catania within 5 seasons. Had great success on previous versions of the game and tactically astute. I consider myself to be very good at the game.
Given the recent ME/ratings issues, I started a save with Barca for a bit of fun/to see if better players made a difference to the tactical issues.
I can’t string 2 wins together, I’ve got players going AWOL left, right and centre and for the first time ever on FM - my job is precarious. I’m doing nothing outlandish whatsoever tactically and the issues remain even when using variants of tactics which have been successful for me for years.
It’s driving me up the wall.
Is anyone else having similar issues?

Don’t know what’s going on but the game is absolutely on its arse. Gone from the most promising FM in years to one which is unplayable.
Can’t enjoy it at all.

Can anyone help with this please?
I simply want to adjust the purple background on the left (within green box) so I can match it with the rest of the colour scheme which I have created. I want the club colour graphic to remain.
The right hand side is masked to a (modified) gradient supplied with the 21Base file. I can change the colour value for that in the config. That is the colour I'd like the left hand side to be.
I can't find the left hand side for the life of me. Is it even set in the config? Or is it a solid object somewhere else?
Thanks.

Hi all. I'm just exploring skinning for the first time and I'm struggling to locate part of the skin in the XML.
I'm creating a subtler, softer skin and am trying to tone down the purple to achieve the grey tone on the right of the image.
I can't seem to find what I need to change the left hand side to match it to the right. Believe it's the core background(?).
Any clues?

Not able to access Development Centre (sidebar) without an immediate crash.
Can right click to access other tabs within, but the landing page crashes.

Luke Shaw's height is listed as 6'1 whereas Edinson Cavani's is listed as only 6'0. Both of these need amending.
They’re both already correct

Hi Kyle,
I seem to be up and running again. I’m unsure what the specific solution was however.
I basically cleared out a load of my files (deleted dead tactics, saves etc). I don’t whether this was the catalyst for everything working again, but there may be a correlation between that and the ‘too many files open’ error? Not too techy, so could be wrong.
All my custom graphics back in now and working fine.

In exactly the same boat with a very similar setup. It seems to me that this isn’t an issue which isn’t particularly understood, or we’d have had a solution like you say. Odd how it’s so sudden for most.
It’d just be nice for it to be looked into properly or merely acknowledged in some cases. Being dealt with really poorly, if at all.
Driving me up the wall.

Apologies - it wasn’t particularly clear that.
See attached. The is how my game files are setup game. It crashes on launch every time when these files are in place.
If I remove all of these files and launch, there’s no issues and it boots fine. That’s obviously no good as I cannot access my saved data.
I did have some custom graphics in there but they’re removed. Nothing out of the ordinary (logo packs, small face packs which have been there for months). Anything else within those files are FM built (tactics, saves etc). Anything custom/non-native to FM isn’t present.
As you can see, graphics files have been removed entirely along with caches and preferences. Files coming back as fine via Steam verification. The problem persists.
As search across the forum suggests that this is happening to quite a few people. There’s people reinstalling their OS and allsorts, all with no joy.
Thanks for looking into it Kyle.

As stated in my post (and others’ posts), any addons have been removed entirely.
All the generic troubleshooting tips have been tried multiple times. They don’t solve the issue.
What do we need to do to be able to play the game?

Any chance of a response?
There are a lot of users with the same issue all and no adequate response to any as of yet. Many being ignored or just palmed off.
Can we get a solution? The copy and paste solutions which everyone is receiving back do not work.

Hi Flecha. Was anybody able to solve this issue for you or have you figured it out?
I seem to be experiencing an identical one and nobody’s getting back on my post with a response or solution (no shock there).

I cannot launch the (full) game. It shuts down within 1-2 seconds of the SI logo displaying.
My game crashed last night when reloading my skin (after adding a facepack - since removed, along with any other custom graphics). It has crashed a couple of times when doing this before, but not to an extent where I cannot open the game.
I have troubleshooted using every bit of information I can find on here and elsewhere. Caches, preferences removed, verified files via Steam etc. Obvsiously rebooted, used other profiles etc too. Everything numerous times. I believe I've done the lot.
I am able to launch the game when I remove every game file from application support/football manager 2020. When I put them back and relaunch the game, it crashes as above and won't open.
Can someone please help? Into a 9 year save and just got in a Champions League final with lowly Chesterfield, so needless to say it's absolutely driving me up the wall!

hmm. try clearing your cache and preferences, if this doesn’t help then i’m completely stumped
Done that twice and hasn’t worked. I’m stumped myself. Can’t figure it out whatsoever. Driving me up the wall.
Thanks anyway matey.

are your zoom and resolution settings correct?
Yes, definitely. I’ve been through and tested the lot and they all seem to have the same issue. My game has crashed a couple of times when attempting to change resolution. Probably related in some way?
Just seems to be affecting the attributes section only.
Really odd.

you definitely on the overview page and not the profile page? drop down in the top left
Yes, certain. It’s across the board. My default view is set to attributes and always has been. Not experiencing any other UI issues. I installed the facepack, reset cache, and the issue occurred. Now can’t find anyway to revert it back.
Any ideas?

I’ve had a sudden issue with the way my attributes are displaying.
I added a small facepack (since removed from system) and upon clearing my cache and reloading my skin, this happened. The attributes now do not fit within the space and scrolling is required to view them all.
Can anyone suggest a solution to get things back to normal? From what I can see, I don’t think that I’ve made any changes to resolution or anything.

Thanks buddy. Some good points there. Will certainly give those a go.
