Is it worth downloading the handheld version, read a few reviews and it seems pretty basic. Anyone else got it?

 

I got FMH 2014 I think it was, or 2013, either way it kept me entertained for a few hours here and there but I quickly became bored.

New to FM2015, few queries.

 

On scouting when I'm looking at a large list of players it seems there is no down arrow to move down the list? I have to drag the grey bar which means I'm jumping past loads/

 

Also, can you just type a players name in and find them?

On the search bar at the top you can type in any player's name

The scouting scroll bar is an issue I have too. You can click the dot on the left hand side and use the arrow keys to go up/down but it's not the most practical option I know.

Youri Tielemens just broke his leg. :(

 

That's not very good. Oliver (starts at Athletico) is as good, if he's available?

60M for Lukaku.

Paid 25M.

Was tempting but I couldn't be arsed finding/nurturing a new striker. Loads harder to find gems this year with the scouting system.

It is so hard to find gems. It's more realistic but it's not as fun IMO.

 

Agreed. I haven't tried playing with attribute masking off so it might be worth doing that it you're not enjoying it as much? I just find it makes the game too easy.

I have plenty of cover. But Tielemans is the best player on the game, or at least, the player with the highest non static potential. Nobody is "as good."

Anyone recomend any decent tactics when starting with an abverage League one team? I concede way too many goals.

Make your own tactic, if you're struggling then post it on here and we'll help you

I know he is a -10 but I was referring to my experience in terms of who I've signed. I'm in 2019 and Tielemans hasn't reached his potential yet and Oliver is better than him; though as he is at the highest he will get I've just sold him to Man City for 60m

Thanks, I'm slowly getting the hang of it now. I'm Notts County and 4th in League one around November time.

 

Signed Shaun Batt on loan from Leyton Orient and he has scored 15 in 17 games in all comps. They could really do with him as they are nearly bottom!

 

Other notable signings are Chris Lester on loan from Bolton, Luke O'Neil on loan from Burnley and Lucas Neil on a free who in fairness right now isn't getting a look in as not match fit.

 

Had a dreadful start but now I have a settled formation I've won 7 of last 8, drawing the other, just beat top of the league Doncaster away 1-0 too. Had until recently scored and conceeded the most in the league but defence is settling down now I'm playing more cautiously away from home.

 

Highlight so far?

Being 4-0 down at HT away at Chesterfield, going to a counter attacking style and coming back to win 5-4!

 

Looks as though Roy Carroll will leave at end of the season, he's on £4k a week! Brilliant though!

 

I'm playing a structured formation with a limited back four, three central ball winning midfielders, one supporting and two defending. Then two pacey wingers and Batt up front doing the biz!

I'm too tired to go in to detail but three ball winning midfielders, even with one of them on support, is dumb.

You need a variety of roles. The trick to a stable defence isn't a whole bunch of defensive players, it's a balanced team. If you can't retain and use the ball when you win it, it'll keep coming back to you.

Also, ball winners inherently drift from position to chase the ball.

Try an anchor on defend, a deep lying playmaker and a roaming playmaker or box to box midfielder. Mix it up so you have a variety of roles.

I see and value your point but the players at my disposal are extremely limited in their quality and I have no means to replace them.

You don't need to replace them, you need to change their roles/duties.

 

3 ball winning midfielders is pretty mental, teams will pretty much walk straight through you because these 3 will chase the ball rather provide a solid base.

 

You need a variety of defend, support and attack duties throughout your shape to provide defensive stability and also to provide movement through the lines in attack.
