    And? Its happened in real life so its clearly not a bug?

    Freak things happen in football all the time. About 15 years ago Hearts started a season winning all of their first 8 games, scoring 21 goals in that time, and then went on to have a record of 2 losses in their first 20. That would be flagged up on here from human managers if the AI done it i reckon, as would them then randomly sacking the manager during that run.

    Thats football. Liverpool only lost 1 league game in 18/19 and still didnt win the league. Theres been 13 seasons where a La Liga side has lost less than 3 games over a season in the past 30 years. Its not uncommon for teams to run through the division, particularly Barcelona and Real Madrid.

    Last 10 seasons nobody’s won more than 30 games so It is highly uncommon in recent years which I assume the scouting and rating is based on. Certainly neither Barca or real win every game by 5 goals even if they do go on long winning runs. The goals are an issue in the game. Just because it happened once 35 years ago doesn’t excuse it. It won’t be a freak thing either will it, real won’t just go back to proper results next season, I’ve seen it in other saves you basically need 95+ points to even sniff the title

    They virtually done this in the 87/88 season in real life.

    23 goals scored and 1 conceded. Hugo Sanchez with 6 goals in that time.

    It makes the game unplayable though. There’s no way to compete with that and as soon as I lose a game my season is over. Nobody has walked the Spanish league for years as far as I can remember. And real just aren’t that good

    Returning player needing help / info

    in Tactics, Training & Strategies Discussion

    Posted

    Decided to return to FM after not playing it for a good 10 years or so and I have a few things I’m curious about if anyone can help as I’m becoming frustrated haha

    I’m currently 1st season Barcelona playing 433DM 

    ideally I want to play tiki taka or possession but I just find it so slow even with the tempo upped and then I nearly always give the ball away on the half way line and concede and don’t create enough . gavi Pedri dejong is the midfield so you would think they could play possession football 
     

    Anyone had success playing possession football? Obviously I’m not familiar with how the match engine works but from my small time so far it does seem high intensity tactics work better. I’ve tried gegenpress and create loads but usually concede 55% possession or more and the players can’t play this all year as they are knackered l

     

     I leave training to my staff but I’ve noticed a lot of the weeks the type of training  is wing play ?? Doesn’t feel right  75% of my weeks or this type of training . Should I be changing this myself and also is it necessary to modify to add more rest in? 

    I try to play one tactic home and away and just change the mentality for big games but find against real psg city etc it’s easy to be 3 nil down after 20 mins as they just rip me to bits and my quality players make loads of mistakes. Is it worth having different tactic / formation for these games ? .

    Any other tips for trying to play tiki taka and also player fitness . I know to rotate and give rest but seems a bit extreme to give 2/3 days rest to first 11 after every game
