The game is annoying me at the moment I am winning before anyone asks lol, and my tactics are working well and I am scoring goals but at a ridiculus ratio but I hate dominating a game totally yet scoring only one, and all of a sudden in the last 5 minutes a CB scores from the half way line or some thing just as ridiculus.

But what is annoying me the most is that it just seems that telling your players to do things like go defensive for example have as much use as trying to kill an elephant with a spud gun. I hate going defensive and seeing every one going forward in the last minute and leading in the inevitable counter attack.
Or likewise going to all out attack and seeing a corner in the last minute with 3 people in the box.

I also hate the fact that if you bid say 10mil for a player and its rejected you have to accept their first offer or the club will demand higher and higher till it gets insane, then when they finally accept your bid they accept a bid from another club and surprise surprise the amount is 10mil.

And a lovely experiment to try play a season and watch Diaby in Arsenal reserves and he will play in it all season with no one interested in him. Start the season again and try to loan him and depending on how many leagues you have you get lots interested I once had over 50 clubs after him because I wanted him and he went to CHELSKI!!! and played in their reserves instead some people say thats realistc but why would a club loan a player they dont need because a club in a different league wants him.

Rant over lol sorry

Why is it that when you become interested in a player, lots of other teams as well? And why is it then when I offer for a player all the other offers will start pouring in as well?

Is that how it is supposed to be? Or is it just one of things that happens in the game...?

Also lol why when I ask for a feeder team I get one team in a playable league then the rest are Semi-proffesional Begium clubs instead of being given a choice of who the board think beacause face it they are morons you should be allowed to pick a club you want to have.

retired_junvan

What league are you in? If a club could just pick which one they want to have than ManU/Arsenal/Chelsea/Liverpool would have 50 feeder clubs each. Unfortunately low end clubs can't just decide that today they are going to ManU's feeder. The board goes out and gets the best they can for your team.

EPL and I dont mean like you go out and say right such and such will be my new feeder team I mean you could say to your board I would like such and such try your best please and the Belgians are work permit teams which I rarely use but accept anyway as the financiall commitment is minimal and thinking that I wont get offered it again but I do I think my chairman is in love with a team called Waasland(sp) they are always a choice.

I think it's fair game to be bitter about problems such as the shots/goals ratio but having a little competition for a player's signature enhances the game in my honest opinion.

It's one of the sweetest feelings in the FM world when that player chooses your club

retired_junvan

Ya I am not bitter I am just wondering if the fact sometimes other clubs only become interested in a player after you do, or if they attempt to sign him only a human player has, was something that was meant to be or if it is somewhat of a bug?

Like the post above, nobody is interested in Diaby at all, then as soon as you declare interest or make an offer tons of offers will come piling in.

A little competition is good but I dont think that just because Sunderland tried to someone Real Madrid would buy them for 20-30mil stick him in the reserves for a year then sell him to another huge club because your still interested where he promptly goes into the reserves.

Example I tried to sign Diarra in the second season from Arsenal as Sunderland he had loads of offers then went to Real Madrid and spent a year in their reserves, Then next season I tried to sign him again and AC Milan bought him instead and left him in the reserves.
My point is why do such high rep clubs by low quality (by their standards) players for huge fees to play them only in the reserves would the likes of Real and AC really be bothered about Sunderland strengthing their team to stoop to such tactics I dont think so.

If you have been at a club long enough when asking for feeder teams they will let you decide what sort of club you want. As coventry in prem in second season they let me chose what type of feeder club to look for as I had been there for a reasonable amount of time and respected my opinion, asking me whether I wished a Work Permit, Domestic Loan, International Loan or Financial feeder club.

Also if you make an offer for a player, immedietly take him off your shortlist afterwards and the only clubs who will make offers for him are clubs who were allready making offers for him.
