I've started as Leicester and my top goalscorer is obviously Beckford. Only 11 games in and he's bagged 9 goals. Quite surprised how good Mills is! He's bagged 5 goals already with an average rating of 8.7!

I cannot beat Bristol City, and never will be able to. They always beat me, from like FM 2007 onwards, they are built so good it's unreal. Nicky Maynard is fantastic on it as well, shame they want £7million for him!

We both in the play offs with 10 games left, if we both do get our play off places, I do hope I don't face Bristol City.

This year I cannot seem to print screen. I wanted to print screen my Chelsea 0-5 Leicester result and when I pasted on paint it just print screened my desktop. The same thing happened when both my brother and dad tried it as well. Anybody know why this is happening/not working?

Seriously Reading can fuck off, every single FM game I face them when I'm in brilliant form and they're in shit form and they always fooking hammer me! 5-1 loss this time adding on to the many other times on older FM games that they batter me.

Ive just played them, away, and won 2-0. But I did lose to Millwall which ended my 10 match unbeaten run!

Mine did it last year, just takes whatever u have open "behind" Fm(apart from a black rectangle in top corner), I got around it by putting fm into windowed mode when I wanted to take a screen shot.

Hows Faurlin doing? Considering getting him for my first season in the prem as QPR have gone down.

well hes has 2 goals and 3 assists in 8 games (av rating 7.4)

but to be fair every1 seems to be over performing

king has got 3 goals and 2 assists in 6 games (av rating 7.6)

schlupp has got 4 goals and 2 assists in 8 games (av rating 7.6)

the list goes on

im currently sitting 1st in the premier league with 21 points from 8 games, 7 wins, 1 loss (man utd)

it just doesnt feel right :unsure:

Andy King was the only player to survive the first 11 3 seasons in.

Started a new game with England. Just drew against Greece first game of Euro 2012 <_<

Absolutely love the game, but starting to think, like others, the game is maybe too easy

Either that or im the next ''special one''............or everything ive ever done has come off and we are online for one enormous slump

Won the championship at a canter in the first season, this despite in the end only bringing in 2 new permanent players (Matt Phillips and Peter Whittingham), scored 98 points for the season, scored 105 goals, blew everyone away.

Won every preseason friendly in the build up for season 2 in the prem, and then went and won the first six league games as well.........this SHOULDN'T happen even if i was some godlike manager.....Leicester shouldnt be doing this.

Whats even more bizarre is, i oversee training but delegate the tasks to my staff............its not caused any problems whatsoever, and i can change tactics midgame, even with a low familiarity bar, and 9 times out of 10, change the game.

I must either have absolutely hit the nail on the head in terms of formation, individual roles and instructions, or the game is too easy.

Deffinately too easy. In my first season I'm pissing the league and also in the final of the League Cup!

Who's the special one now? :whistle:

How do you tend to line up your team? in terms of formation and individual roles

I tend to go with

Kasper (Goalkeeper/defend)

Pantsil (Full back/support)

Mills (Limited centre back/defend)

Bamba (Centre back/defend)

Konchesky (Full back/support)

Phillips (Winger/Attack)

Fernandes (Ball Winning Midfielder/defend)

Wellens (Deep lying playmaker/support)

Whittingham (Winger/Attack)

Nugent (Advanced forward/Attack)

Beckford (Poacher/Attack)

Theres individual instructions i use within that but just want the jist of your individual roles

Same as; seven points clear in the Championship first season in (just heading into March). Only one player (Hogan Ephraim) signed on a permanent, but Beckford, Dyer, King, Fernandes etc are all machines. Few problems with unhappy players (Moussa & Weale), but nothing major.

Donut, similar to your formation, but Dyer on the left wing, Ephraim on the right (both attacking), and King (automatic) alongside Fermandes (defensive) in centre mid. Legendary.

Maybe it should be this easy with our players - perhaps Sven was just properly shite...

I dont set individual roles to be honest but I play a simple 4-4-2 formation. And if I'm chasing a game I will change that to 4-3-3, setting it to overload. This tactic has helped me out alot.

My team:

GK: Kasper

RB: Pantsil

CB: Mills

CB: Bamba

LB: Tunchev

RM: Gallagher

CM: Johnson

CM: Fernandes

LM: Rose (Danny Rose from Spurs. Pretty decent)

ST: Nugent

ST: Beckford

Ive not tinkered with any of the tactics really. Seems to be a lot involved in this FM when it comes to that and I just don't have the patience for it. Ive also used 4-1-2-1-2 formation, basically the diamond, and thats not a bad formation to use. I seriously don't no where Sven went wrong with it!

Loving my FA Cup run with Leicester. In my second season, so I still have most of the current players. Anyway I wanted to have a real go in the FA Cup, results for far:

3rd Round: Preston 1-3 Leicester (Abe, Kennedy, Danns)

4th Round: Chelsea 0-5 Leicester (Sharp, Lallana, Vassell, St. Ledger, St. Ledger)

5th Round: Leicester 1-0 Aston Villa (Konchesky)

6th Round: Leicester 0-0 Liverpool

Semi Final Draw: Leicester/Liverpool v Wigan

Hope I can win it!!

That worked, cheers mate.

On my own I have started a game as Hibs with the object to break into the top 2 despite having no money.

Won my 4 games away from home without conceding but have lost 2 and drew 2 at home, that is where I'm struggling, on my own turf.

Can't believe it. Had loads of chances to win at Anfield; Lallana, Beckford and King all missed easy chances. But I worked hard and took Liverpool all the way to penalties (0-0 after 120 minutes), but as always, lost on penalties - Beckford, Konchesky and St. Ledger all missed.

Shame really. I would have liked to get Leicester to the final of a domestic cup, especially the FA Cup.

Don't you just love it when a opposition manager says your team has no chance of winning the up coming game yet your team goes out and wins 4-0.

I loved it every time the manager would question me or my team in FM 11. Nine times out of ten, I'd win the game. Good omen :D

1) Coventry city have managed 5 points all season.............lol and WTF all in one

2) Despite that, Doncaster have done even worse.

I dont think ive ever seen the phrase ''whipping boys'' ever ring so true

Lost in the play off semi-final. As soon as the season finished, I knew I wouldn't get to the final because I can't beat Brighton. Lost 0-1 at home, and then 2-0 at their place. Despite that, Billy Sharp was awarded top goalscorer in the division. Sharp, Lallana and Bamba were all selected in the team of the year.

Need some improvement's if I want to go up at my third attempt next season.

Get Barnet in to the champs league. (ie you can make this game as easy as you like)
