Default Most frustrating game ever to exist... HT Bolton 5-0 Man U !!

I've played all the champmans since champ man 92, and I know how frustrating the FMs can be. But usually they're frustrating in an entertaining way, to make you want to carry on. This is by far the worst.

I am Man United and just played Bolton away. At half time I was 5-0 down, with Ricardo Vaz Te scoring 4 goals despite him having Rio Ferdinand as his marker.

I had a full strength team and played a normal style throughout.

If my team had played terrible fair enough, but stats wise Bolton had 19 shots to my 21, and I had 51% possession.

What the hell is going on with this game?

I would like to know whether this is going to be fixed in the patch, or I'm taking it back for a refund.

It's weird I'm usually on these forums defending SI, but this game is ridiculous and not enjoyable. The players never do what you want them to do and you see players like Ronney missing 8 open goals a game. What's the point in playing this game?

I won't harp on any more, we all know the faults of the game and there are many many more.

Please put the realism back into the game.

Was that a rant based on just 1 game? If so, get over it.

I've been playing the game for a few weeks. It's not just the games I lose either, early in the season I beat Arsenal at home 7-1.

It's a great game, just wish it was more realistic. I like to play around with tactics a lot but there's no point. You just never know what the scores going to be, and it seems very hard to win away from home. Dunno if anyone else agrees, might just be me.

Well I've never lost 5-0 to Bolton, think you need to improve your tactics a bit, if you can't do very well with Man Utd then I would suggest taking it back and trying a simpler game.

it happens, occasionally you do get beaten soundly by a poor team, on both fm 06 and 07 i built a barcelona super squad and even they weren't immune.

I beat Man U 5-1 with Liverpool, lost the next 3-0 to Chelsea and again 3-0 to some lower EPL team.

Im with Vic on this game too.I have never slated SI before at all, but this game is just so unpredictable.One game you can win away from home 3-0, the next you lose 4-1 at home with exactly the same formation, facing a team which your scout says is very similar to the one youve just played.Im just bemused sometimes on how ive lost a game ive completely dominated.And its not just one off games, its all the time.Anyone else having this frustration?
