How can I stop this consistently happening! I have got promoted to quick so I'm in the Championship with Bristol Rovers and most of my players are League One standard but ffs last two games I've been the better side (3 or 4 clear cut chances), not scored, and then they kick it long and score. What mentality are you playing on? What defensive line height are you playing on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually start attacking with flexible if at home and counter with flexible (sometimes structured) if away. My line height is just normal - average or whatever it's called. I try to drop deep against long ball teams but not sure if I should be going the other way and pushing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attacking mentality has a naturally high line, you're better off dropping mentality rather than adjusting line height as it keeps your side compact rather than having a big gap appearing between midfield and defense.

DJ Barry Hammond Posted 20 May 2017 Share Posted 20 May 2017 Has anyone... played this on a laptop with touch screen / pen thing? If so, can you play it with touch screen or do you still have to use a mouse/trackpad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beliall Posted 21 May 2017 Share Posted 21 May 2017 I seem to remember when windows 8 came out there was a touch update to that years edition. So i would assume so. Googling reveals FM touch is optimised for tablets, So yeah that would have touch control but its the diet version of the game. Cant see anything conclusive on the fuull fat version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 21 May 2017 Share Posted 21 May 2017 Well .... wtf I save on steam cloud always .... just loaded it up and I'm back in pre season ?? (I was in January). So confused. I've just lost half a season. Is there somewhere it saves local too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozwin Posted 21 May 2017 Share Posted 21 May 2017 Anyone know much about the MLS and the contracts? Why can't I decide if the contract is a designated or a senior contract? It's well annoying. It's like the game decides for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonnieTodger Posted 25 May 2017 Share Posted 25 May 2017 My West Ham side are through to the last 8 of the Europa League and have drawn Feyenoord, so a very winnable tie. Switching to a midfield 3 has put us on a 7 game winning run. Leicester are 17th and have backed Ranieri. They're the only English team left in the Champions League and have drawn Atletico in the quarters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started as Rangers and was sacked in November languishing 6th in the SPL. I then got the Aston Villa job (who were 16th in the Championship). By March I have managed to drag them down to 22nd despite January signing Leonardo Ulloa scoring 8 goals already. The board then imposed a target of 12 points from the next 5 games to save my job. Beat Rotherham 6-2 but then lost the next two meaning I have lost 2 jobs in less than a season. In summary, I'm rubbish at this game. I've managed to salvage some sort of reputation by dropping down to League 2 and getting a struggling Doncaster promoted in my second season. The job offers from Championship clubs are now flooding in. My strike partnership of Chris Long and Liam Mandeville is silly, 71 goals between them in the season.

Dan LCFC Posted 30 May 2017 Share Posted 30 May 2017 Man City were in the bottom 3 in March on my game. Was thinking... surely not. Ended up right. They've won 5 on the bounce and will now likely finish in the top half. Would've been great if they'd dropped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboFox Posted 30 May 2017 Share Posted 30 May 2017 There it is. Managed to pip PSG to the title on the last day of the 2019/20 season after Lyon did me a favour and beat them away from home. Was worth rinsing my wage budget to sign Corentin Jean on a free from Monaco and a 34 y/o Cabaye from a relegated Palace side (even had to get Palace to agree to pay 40% of his wages) Both completely transformed my team... Unreal stats. Jean scored 36 in 48 appearances in all competitions as a lone striker. Cabaye's an absolute assist monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovejoy Posted 31 May 2017 Share Posted 31 May 2017 Me and a mate have both started a save as Dynamo Dresden. Planning to run in parallel and see how we each get on. Lost my first game 3-1 to Furth, squad isn't brilliant and I've been beaten to every target so far apart from Kevin Kuranyi, signed on a free to keep the bench warm.

Made a huge profit and have £44m to spend next year however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozwin Posted 7 June 2017 Share Posted 7 June 2017 My Jouneyman save accidently turned into a Pentagon Challenge. Won the North American Champions League with Real Salt Lake City (First MLS side ever to win it yo) and got offered the Flamengo job. So I'm going to try and win it there and see if I can get something in Africa or Asia before trying my luck in Europe. I'll probably end up giving up before I do it but Flamengo aren't a bad side to make a push with and if I do it with them I'm well and truly on my way.

Ozwin Posted 8 June 2017 Share Posted 8 June 2017 Start unemployed, win the Champions League in all five continents. I've never done it but my Flamengo side is unreal now. Broke the Brazilian transfer record twice in a transfer window buying a ball winning midfielder and the best goalkeeper in south america. Champions League here we come! Going to be a step down going to Africa or Asia though, hopefully I can get a mega rich Chinese side to take me on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox92 Posted 8 June 2017 Share Posted 8 June 2017 After consecutive title wins, I left Bristol Rovers (I left them 8th in the Championship and two points from the play offs) and moved to Everton. Same division as Everton somehow got relegated. They were mid table when I took over but I've got them to 3rd and we're within touching distance of first. Still got Lukaku and he's only 29 Already scored 22 goals and it's only just gone past Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've accepted the Peterbrough job in January with them 16th, target is playoffs. 11 points off with 20 to play. Turned down Willem II for it, they are winless in 19 in Holland and the goal is mid-table . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W LCFC Posted 9 June 2017 Share Posted 9 June 2017 Just bought this as I'm back home for the summer after first year of Uni. Just started a Leverkusen save as they've got quite a few young players I wanted to use. Not given me much to work with in this first transfer window.
