MrBannystar Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I just beat Norwich 4-0 at home and said 'i am NOT hapy with that performance' by mistake. FFS! Could there not be a confirm option before giving teamtalks or an option to go back? It's not as if you'd annoy the whole team by accident... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom L Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 There could be a "No no no I'm sorry" option after every statement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenzar Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 For some baffling reason, the 'undo last' button is never active during team talks. Why have it there? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giggsidan Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 If your main team-talk gives mostly red reactions, you can simply praise the goalkeeper, defence, midfield, and forward positions separately to get it back to green. Or praise each player personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom L Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Saying they play poorly overall, then praising the different parts of the team usually makes them confused though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott MUFC Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 i love it when you give orders to each part of the team, green green, all red? what is that about? and i agree undo button needed, accendental bad team talk can affect players to the point of leaving.

marty78 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 They won't and indeed shouldn't put an undo button in as then all you would have to do is keep undoing your teamtalk until you found the response that gave the best reaction. I've done a similar thing to the OP on a couple of occasions but I think this is my fault and not the games. If you aren't paying attention and do something stupid you can only blame yourself. The best remedy for this imo is to speak to any players that list this a "concern" on their profile and tell them that you will work on improving this side of your game and they should see an improvements in the coming months. Can't remember the exact phrasing but it goes along those lines. Finally watch what your doing and it won't happen again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurogj Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 If only Joe Kinnear had had an undo button when he called Charles N'Zogbia "insomnia"... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reccy Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 You'd think that a 2-1 Win over Barcelona to win the Champs League would warranty a positive reaction from a passionate response. Ohhhh no - just blank stares. BUT! a routine 2-0 win over a Serie C1/A team, in the bottom 3 in the Italian Cup is all to hail for.. Ahh well..

philly_flyer10 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 For some baffling reason, the 'undo last' button is never active during team talks.Why have it there? Because then youd never give a bad team talk, youd just undo it all the time.The best thing you can do is give personal TTs or defence, midfield, attack as a group. This can undo individual pre match bad reactions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't do this, otherwise you end up getting the reputation that your players can walk all over you. I much prefer to be hard, and then over time you wont get players messing you about.

JamboSteven Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I often press the continue button in the top left of the screen due to some slight lag when the team talk is loading and therefore my players run out into the second half without any words of encouragement - I usually end up losing. I would also like a confirm button when continue is clicked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or praise each player personally. i did that and the whole team just got confused. it didnt matter much though as our form was still good afterwards, it's just annoying that a slight lapse in concentration can have such a bad affect.

jimmyt86 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 I'm playing as St Mirren and we drew a couple of games against stronger teams, Hibs and Motherwell I think, so I gave a passionate talk of you did well out there as they had fought hard for the draw yet all the players switch off in response!! Surely my team talk was along the right lines with a passionate show of well done to get a draw against a stronger team....this was added to given that the media response was St Mirren close to upset etc. and the prediction was for me to get stuffed!!

I much prefer to be hard, and then over time you wont get players messing you about. I disagree with that. I'm generally quite hard on players but if I give a wildly inappropriate teamtalk that upsets one or more of my most influental players then I think they deserve an apology. If they were upset by what I believed to be justified criticism then that would be different and they can leave the club if they can't get over it.

Guest Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Tenuous on-topic link but for me one area of teamtalks that has annoyed me for a few years in when at HT you warn the players about the dangers of complacency, no matter what tone you use or which of the two/three ways of putting across the same message you can be pretty sure that once the second half kicks off your team will not be anywhere near competitive. It's like telling a child not to stick their head through the fence, you know they're going to do it just to find out why they shouldn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been avoiding the "guard against complacency" teamtalks for years now. I have not once seen a positive impact from using it in FM. Without fail this team talk always seems to end up making my team become complacent and go on to lose the match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 For me there are 3 laws of FM; Don't get complacent = utterly abject 2nd half display Defensive/defend set-piece match prep = watch your defence get ripped to shreds If you're in a title/promotion push you will drop points against teams fighting against relegation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
milnerpoint Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 well personally i use the complacent one quite often, especially if my team is leading but not convincing AND if my team has been walking over a team but doesnt have a big lead, ive seen an improved defense using the match prep, and i dont think i have lost to a team not in the top 3 for 3 seasons now, its funny old game FM eh!!
