Some of nations lowest available leagues can be selected on game start up but are greyed out when selecting your team. Are they not playable and won't be playable? Is it just greyed out during beta? Is it a bug? Nations I've noticed is the French lowest league and Norwegian Lowest league. This is intended. They have added these leagues since a lot of B-teams play there. But they are not playable out of the box. I think someone will fix that shortly after release though, have a look in the editor section a couple of days after release of the editor if you want them playable. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pats Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) Re-played one of my matches from 19.0 and I have to say, defending is even better in 19.1.

The next step for FM is to try to implement real world pressing styles. It's not about how much or how urgently you press, it's about a specific team plan to press. They should consult with various quality coaches to go over pressing styles in different systems. For example: - In a diamond the strikers split, block passing lanes and force them through the centre. - In a 4-3-3 the advanced playmaker pushing in tight on the opposing DM to support the press of the front 3. - In the formation Conte played at chelsea the AMCs pressing the full backs etc. etc etc etc 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pats Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) The teams are playing direct passes in transition no matter what passing length is set in the TIs. As soon as they win the ball back they look to launch direct counters even if you don't want them to. Also the ball is being constantly switched from one flank to the other even if you don't want to play like that.

pauly15 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) Is there any way to isolate individual player's statistics in the match analysis? Also, passing length has gone too far in the opposite direction. We've gone from not playing through balls begging to be played, to playing direct passes even when they're not on. Intercepted long passes (full pitch): Old ME: New ME: Sadly in it's current form it's far less enjoyable/natural/aesthetically pleasing than it was, despite the # of goals from crosses now being more balanced. What needs to happen is for ball carriers, especially in advanced positions, to hit runs actually being made.

Mensell76 Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 (edited) My second impression on Me1913 in the 19.1 update is based on a new save with PSV in a 4-2-3-1 tactic. This time around the impression is not good. This ME still does not seem to make it possible to play with a traditional nummer 10 playmaker on the AMC position with two controlling midfielders in his back. The AMC is just not getting the ball in the final third where you want him to start dictating play and trying killer balls for the IF's and SC. The AMC is only contributing in an attacking role by getting into the penalty box and scoring some goals. The AMC and SC unfortunately still do not connect in this ME. Is there anyone with a more positive impression using a playmaker on the AMC position this time around ?

Popular Post Sticx Posted October 31, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2018 Agree with the others about the direct play now. Even with my low tempo short passing game we regularly play route one over the top to a lone striker and will counter automatically with long direct passing. Seem to have gone from one extreme to the other. I do like the nice switch of play happening now. If we could just find a happy medium here. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anyone with a more positive impression using a playmaker on the AMC position this time around ? maybe not directly conected to AMC issue but what i noticed that default defending is really narrow in final third which leaves vast space on the flanks for full-backs to exploit. usully wide forwrads move forwards and centrally too soon and offer almost no support especially with attack duty. imo they should be more involved on the flanks to play through balls, one-two's with full-backs and midfielders. what happens most of the time is that full-backs have too much space for themselves (because of too narrow defense/ IFs bad defending) with only logical option to dribble and cross the ball. imo there should be more players involved in stretching defense than just full-backs. this would create holes in defense for attacking teams to exploit.

Of course but check in the game, 95% of the GK have as best role the ''sweeper keeper'' one and it isn't normal because there are and there will always be many ''goalkeepers''. Even players as Perin*, Buffon etc ''are'' sweeper keepers in FM19. I know the role suitability depends of attributes (?) but then the best role for the GK is not calculated well. * Spoiler passing -> 6 First touch -> 5 Kicking -> 12 Edited October 31, 2018 by ParanoidBuddha 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
autohoratio Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 I'm still not sure how to feel about the changes to individual training for FM19.

Amarante Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Crossing has been toned down but now fullbacks and wingers who use to perform cutbacks into the box are now playing the ball all the way into midfield which now is unrealsitic. If your striker or next winger has made a darting run in the box you would expect them to find now they play it to the edge of the 18 and the chance is gone.

DazRTaylor Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Ok, so I have now completed four seasons in FM19 and without question, this is the best Football Manager for years. I say that as someone who has clocked up over 6,000 hours between FMs 17&18. I may give my wife an up to date picture of me to remind her what I look like as she isn’t going to see me for quite a while. The new look is refreshing and the purple has definitely grown on me. I have only had three crash dumps so far, whereas I had had a LOT more in previous versions. There are still some annoying bugs, not game breaking by any means, in as I have stated previously in this thread. Overall, I am delighted. SI, I thank you. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazRTaylor Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 As an aside, is it now easier to produce skins etc for the game? I ask because there is already a plethora of custom skins available already, whereas I don’t recall any at all in previous years until a few weeks at least into the full release.

treble_yell_:-) Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Played a few more games and it's the same as my last post - AI seems to be much more aggressive in the press and tempo Wide play seems weird , less crosses , more 50 yard passes back to the midfield ( my winger is also playing very narrow despite attacking width being much wider and him having hugs line etc ) Hollywood passes 50+ yards over the AI d line for a lone striker to chase seems the norm. Seems like it's just went too far the other way ( still not convinced there was an issue if you actually looked at what was being counted as a "cross") That stupid issue where the player will get the ball and run away from play towards the corner flag just to cross is still there though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
