Wil this ever stop!

May 4

I have made a test. here is Mark Flekken 2.0:

he is asked to just make short passes as distribution.

yet with these he losses the ball 25 time in a match. Below are some pictures og where he looses the ball:

April 8

What attributes decides a players ability to shot at goal with their head. I dont think the description of either finishing or heading mentions shooting with their head.

I find that a LOT of shots with headers in FM just flies over the bar, and i would like to improve my players ability score with their heads.

Anyone else seing results like this way to often?

What a lovely way to loose a final.

Luckily SI has assured me that there are absolutly no difference between AI and human control keepers

after the new patch the defensive set up at short attacking throw ins are still exstremely bad. When ever there is a throw in in like this you no there is only 2 outcomes:

1. either the make a 1-2 and crossing the ball, and either scores get a corner og scores from the second ball

2. The pass quicly around until the get a shot away or gets a corner. And because your team is so out of position from the beginning there is structural Kaos.

It is so frustrating because there is notheing to do about the starting defensive set up

November 26, 2023

I find that so many goals are conceded in the perioded right after a throw in.

Beacuse they players start all over to place, there is kaos after which the AI really often use to their advantage.

So how can i change this set up?

And they AI scores.

Happens so often.

I dont think this is that common IRL

These two are my to CM's

This picture illustrate my frustration.

Why are my players so far away from the AI midfield?

Here is my tactic

I am going back to fm23.

I feel like every match is the same:

- Goals are always a result of set pieces.

- The amount og heavy touches and bad decision are to great

- Wingers are useless, and looses the ball

- 2. ball from defensive headers are never won by the defending team, and the structural aftermath after the headers leads to so many goals

- No one runs in behind the defensiveline of the AI

Thank you.

What about pressing? any advice?

It seems like the worse teams are able to easiuly pass through the press?

How you you guys set up pressing

November 24, 2023

I am having a tough time with the Match engine.

I cant get players to run in behind. everything is played into the feet of my players.

Wingers loose the ball pretty much every time they get the ball do to a bad touch, poore dribling or passing. They are also way to deep doing build up.

The press is all over the place. AI players are standing totally unmarked. Players in attacking midfield are not applying pressure and are dropping all the way back to mark the same players as my CM.

My fullback refuse to mark the AI winger closely.

so yeah it is a mess, Please help.

I would like to se how others are sitting up their pressing instrcutions.

So far i have found it exstremely har to set up any good pressing. Players are running around with no purpose and are far away from their man. Which result in bad teams playing like Barca against me.

After having played the game since it came out in november i have to admit that i am quit desapointed in the ME ability to mimic real lif tactical trends.

When i think back on fm 21 i had a feeling that it actually matters if i ticked a instruction, and that the players would peforme as the describ role.

That is defently not the case in FM23

Inwerted wingbacks are not inwerting. They are staying way to wide. and when they finaly do inwert a little it is in the final third. Inwerted wingbacks are inwerted right away in the real world, and in fm21 they id just that.

Wingers are not staying wide, and never had. This has always been a mistery to me..... Having exstremely wide wingbacks has been a tactical trend for so long, and yet still in FM 23 wingers turn into inside fowards when they are getting close to the box. Complete destroying your widt.

No one dribbles anymore. Granted speed is still OP but not because it enables players to run pass opponent with the ball. But purely by running pass them. I really miss to see players take players on like they do in real life. Right players receive, stand still pass back og tries a long pass in behind. give me som dribbles.

DONT even get me started on pressing. It is imposible to create any kind of press because your players are so far away from the ai.

Which leads in to the problem that man marking instructions are a joke! either players are totally ignoring their man marking, or they are just standing beside them, not engaging what so ever to win the ball,

Sorry for the rant, i really hope that next year will be better.

I think the linesman fell a sleep....

The show must go on.

August 5, 2023

my AM is asked to man mark their DM.........:

August 5, 2023

i feel like my AM's are marking the AI's CM despite, and my DM's are marking nobody. Why arent the AM's Pushing up and applying pressure higher and letting my CM take care of the AI CM. Instead it end up like this:

In this my AM's are even asked to man mark the AI Defenders, as a desprate attempt to get them higher on the pitch doing a press.

August 5, 2023

Here is another example, right from 2. half kick off. should my AM whos is asked to trigger pres more in a team with all pressing instructions maxed out not be more aggressive than this? :
