Milakus said: Why do you consider overlaps as a bad thing? Expand
I think you can get done a lot on the counter with overlaps that leave your DR and DL so high up the pitch all the time. I prefer stay wider for IF's, with overlaps still on, so that your wing backs are there to support and they do overlap, just not too high on every attack. I think my IF's are better as well
ZaZ said: Almost the same, except that IF is not set to wide.
Thanks! Nice to have you here. I wish there were more people sharing their runs here in FM-Arena as well. Expand
Im doing a great save with SpVgg Bayreuth starting in Bundesliga3 and its been my best save in a long, long time. I do use downloaded tactics and fmscout though. I dont mind the tactics so much but I should try to switch over to not using fm scout. Back-to-back promotions and mid table in first Bundesliga 1 season. Get hammered in some games, but the late winners and comebacks are so enjoyable. RNG seems to have leveled out too, now im a better/higher rep side.
ZaZ said: Thanks! We have to remember we are actually underdogs, which means the other teams are usually stronger. That means they often start losing because they are nervous, but after they start scoring, they gain a boost of morale that makes them have higher chance to score again, especially since they have better players. Expand
I get that. I just feel the way they have tried to make the game harder, well its how it appears to me, is with stuff like this.
Holding onto leads and keeping clean sheets as an unerdog seems so hard this year. Your result away to Newcastle is the kind of thing im talking about. I went 3-1 up at Anfield and lost 8-4 LOL. All my defenders got 6.2+ hahaha, except lb who got a 5.9. None of them scored. I dont understand any of that.
Anyway enjoying your thread and good luck with the rest of the season.
Exciting Zaz will be following. I get bored of saves too easily, or frustrated at the match engine! So am looking to do something long term myself, although three seasons seems quick for the champions league!!
ZaZ said: I have created a save file with only English teams, and set all players from the two top leagues to have maximum consistency and minimum injury proneness. Then I run tests with eight teams, one save with two teams from Premier League and two from Championship, and another similar with different teams, divided equally by season odds. After that, I do five runs for both saves, which gives a total of 1680 matches. After that, I do a rank test to define which variation of the tactic is the best. Expand
I actually have good test results for this. Strange it only scored 35. Using it in my save as well I think its really good, but needs a few tweaks with balls over the top and some other things .
Could be said in they first test the top sides all lost too many games. But second test both Liverpool and City got very good points totals. Looks very good so far

FM23 is more random this year and the in the game that have tried to make it harder to overachieve.
No 'run at defence'?

Explain it to me like im 5 years old
Congrats on new water!
OP said you were harsh and then you went for the sandwich of nice/another dig(very low)/nice with the smiley face side.
If 57 is the highest score, 50 is not "very low". It's off the top but very low would be something I made which would get 35 max.
For a wide diamond formation with DWs and IWBs 48-50 pts is a really low score... but it's only my opinion, feel free to disagree
Ah the smiley face, the signature of a melt
Throw ins also very good this year, it seems you can exploit the way the AI defends them
and you have all started new games? its roughly the same ME
