@yuzojr https://community.sigames.com/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=443044 wasn't sure how to copy a link it's the kashmir 4141 kingstonian anyway

using the 4141 when playing tough away games seems to be working wonders. don't really want to use it at home aswell cos i find it such a boring formation. obviously fm being fm now my away results have improved i lose at home to newcastle putting an end to a 53 game unbeaten home run then get pumped by city a few games later. that might be because i've been using parisienne424 this season where as before i was using hgf451 home and away results below - check out the games i used 4141. have never had that success before just using 1 tactic

bloody hell

bet that final game was nerve wracking!

@knap oh yeh forgot to mention i tried that a few seasons ago. i don't think it helped as i would have continued doing it if it did..although my memories terrible so not 100%. i'll try it again if the 4141 doesn't improve things have you tested it yourself at all? or is it just a suggestion you have

i've probably lost like 1 home game in the last 5 seasons. it's the away games that kill me. but i'm never actually the underdog so it's really annoying i noticed the hgf 451 is top of the underdog test but i've used that for like 2 seasons now and it's still falling short in the big away games. the city games are hard as our teams ca is pretty much identical but i'm in 2040 and despite having amuch better team than chelsea, liverpool, spurs etc i still rarely beat them. obviously there should always be an advantage to the home team to some degree but i think it's way over of the top on this game, would be nice if they could turn it down a notch. think i'll try the 4141 in tough away games as knap recommends, despite performing slightly worse than the hgf in the underdog test

well i mean you'd think that the 3 attributes that are literally highlighted for penalties would mean they would be the best choice. i think you are right though any time i manually choose my takers it feels like it's a coin toss as to whether they score or not. dunno if it's just a buggy game/super keepers/hidden attributes/something else gonna just give them to my captain i think. he won't let me down!

would have thought he'd score more having 19 finishing, 18 composure and 16 penalty taking. not sure them attributes mean anything though

honestly sick of missing penalties. just lost for the first time in 29 league games because for some reason they decided world class strikers can only score 1 out of every 7 penalties

Out of interest who are you managing and how are you doing? I keep switching between letting my AM do my training and using downloaded schedules. Still trying to work out which is better. Probably just me being paranoid but I'm sure it has a huge impact on results and I'm not sure if it's a positive or negative

ah yeh on mine i have something below the letter C column and above the formation text. it's not on the screenshot heywood shown above. but yeh just use the down arrow next to the column letter instead

there's a little v thing that looks like a wifi signal at the top of each column. click that and you can sort them a-z or z-a. do it for the formation column if that's what you want to sort

are any of your players unhappy? i've noticed that if i play any unhappy players in my team away from home it always goes balls up. figured it out last night as i usually have 22 really good players and have to rotate them to keep them happy, occasionally they get unhappy so i'll obviously try to play them more. i tested it loads and i've definitely noticed you can get away with playing them in home games but away? no chance. may not even be related to your problem but just thought i'd throw it out there incase it helps anyone else!

is there anything else that could cause a tactic to get better over time apart from just the tactic familiarity bars? just asking because i had hgf pts107 loaded for ages so it was 100% fluid. switched to it and drew 4 of my 5 first league games struggling to score. decided to stick with it and have won 9 of my last 10 often scoring 3/4/5. wondering if there's something hidden that i ain't aware of
