Hi

Ive been playing with Arsenal with an attcking 4-3-1-2 formation with the training left to my coaches, for the first 10games everything was great - W9 D1 L0

So i save the game and turn the xbox off for a bit - due to playing FM06 for 4hours, go to load it up later on - only then to find my team lose every match, even a 5-1 hammering at westham - who are bottom of the league.

So basicly does any of you guys know any decent traing/tactics etc?
also is it a good idea to leave the training to your coaches - if so are there any good coaches who i would be able to hire?

Please help!

Thanks

coaches, go into training, then coaches, then auto assign, as i found out after a while that none of my coaches were even assigned.. and people were getting angry at lack of a fitness coach lol.. and create your own training schedules as the defined ones are crap.. get every1 training hard, if you find you get too many injuries in a position bring everything down a notch, i run the following training schedules GK, GK youth, DEF, DEF youth, MID, MID youth, ATT, ATT youth, if i figure out an easy way to get them up i will, as camera will not take pics of tv properly.. and hire new coaches, coz the ones you start with are crap, well they are at chelsea anyway.. need any more info let me know m8

I've always been too lazy to bother with training since CM 3, it's summut I really should look into.

I do take time over assigning coaches though. In a logic that I always thought was slightly OTT, your coaches perform best by being chosen in just one area that they most excel in. So I bring i coaches that are cheap and only good (ie. 15+ rating) in one area. I build a team of coaches using this method, asigning each one to just one section of training each, thus increasing their 'stars' effectiveness/time rating.

It can be costly so not recommended for lower league teams alas, but if you have between £1-4million, you can get one of the best coaching staff available.

As for a tactic, I'll hopefully be posting pics of mine up in a mo.

Also - when your on the tactics screen - how do you get the yellow arrows up next to your players postions?

Ahh...highlight the player you want to run then hit X and move the arrow cursor to where you want him to run to, then hit A. That's if I remember right.

a winning formation.. lol change formation to 4-4-2 attacking diamond, move players around till you have what looks the following

----ST-ST----
-AML------AMR-
----MC-MC----
-DL-DC-DC-DR--
-----GK-------

if that works, have the mc on the left run into the space behind the 2 st, and have the mc on the right run into the space infront of the 2 dc.. (so effectivly a am and dm who are both cm)and change the team instructions around a bit, cant give all my tactics away m8
