No they're not He's out of contract at the end of the season and i'm hoping to get him on a free, will go nice with pongolle, mellor and Bradley WP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shen Posted 18 February 2006 Share Posted 18 February 2006 Bloody hell it gets worse Lost 1-0 to Oldham in the League Cup! I don't know how you set up the team, but 4-4-2 suits Leicester very well, and if you have acquired a class AMC then 4-4-2 Diamond is even better! I know it's boring and cliché but direct football works down in the Championship and physique is very very important. Having said that, I always put more weight on individual player strategies. It's a start to give them default strategies, but try to refine them so they suit your player's preferred moves and stats... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pongolle is one of the best strikers in the game imo. In 2005 he scored over 50 season for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Posted 18 February 2006 Share Posted 18 February 2006 I've just got it. Only played one pre-season game so far, beat Spurs 3-0 with Hume bagging a brace and Kisnorbo scoring a penalty. Stearman also missed a penalty later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muz Posted 19 February 2006 Share Posted 19 February 2006 Im Luton in my 2nd season. Finished 8th in my first season there , 3 points off the playoffs. If you want a great young striker go to Luton U-18's and get Calvin Andrews , Steve Kabba and Izale McLeod were both injured so I played him with Howard and he was immense. My team this season is... Guftasson Keenan Heikannen Kenton Foley Danns Nicholls Gudjohnson Piper Kabba Andrews Not got off to the best start with a 2-0 defeat away at newly promoted Bradford Got offered the Sheff Utd job in the summer , but rejected them 'cos they were offering a measily 120k transfer budget. Oh yeah , John Gregory got appointed as manager of Leicester last season ( ) It took a 2-2 draw away at Cardiff to keep Leicester up on the final day.

foxes_fan Posted 19 February 2006 Share Posted 19 February 2006 How do some of you do it? What i mean is how do you get players such as Morientis, David Dunn to join huddesfield? As surely huddesfield do not have that a bigger transfer budget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As surely huddesfield do not have that a bigger transfer budget? They were in my second season at the end, they were out of contract and not needed SO offer them a contract in jan and get them in july Although I actually bought morientes it took me 4 times to get him to accept a contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes_fan Posted 19 February 2006 Share Posted 19 February 2006 How do i do the training for the players, as i haven't done any training with the players since i have been playing the game.

Lemon Harpic Posted 20 February 2006 Share Posted 20 February 2006 I don't train the players,i just buy 1 coach for each section of training and leave them to it. And by the way i've left huddersfield and gone to portsmouth Most of the players I just leave on the default general training scheme, but in some cases I make a customised schedule. For players who are not playing in the first team (usually younger players) I make a new schedule which is like general training but 'strength' is set to high. This tires players out but if they're not playing it doesn't matter. I also make a new schedule for when my off-form strikers keep missing sitter after sitter. This schedule has intensive shooting, high ball control and attacking but to make sure it's not too knackering defending and tactics are set to 'light'. In my first season with Leicester, I won promotion in second place (don't ask me how!). After a few more seasons of mediocrity in the Premiership, I buggered off to Newcastle United and won the league. David Platt took over as Foxes manager and, perhaps unrealistically, he hasn't fecked the club up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shen Posted 20 February 2006 Share Posted 20 February 2006 I play 4-4-2, and have got Hume in the AMC position. How do i put more weight on individual player strategies? In the team tactics page, you can click on the position of each player and assign personal instructions. You can thus fine tune your tactic, like telling the centerbacks to stand off if the team is closing down etc. How do i do the training for the players, as i haven't done any training with the players since i have been playing the game. Could this be the reason why i'm not doing so well? It's recommendable to make at least a schedule for Keepers (standard one is ok), Defenders, Midfielders and Strikers. Use your common knowledge and intuition to make them. It's my experience that none of them should surpass the 'medium' workrate, otherwise you'll get many injuries.

It's not too hard with Leicester in the Championship tbh due in part to some slightly/very over-rated players (Hamill, Johansson, Sheehan, Hume and Williams spring to mind). Disappointing to see you pull an O'Neill though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
