Is there anyone out there that is finding success with this game? Has anyone found out the secret to being successful with this game?If there is i would like to know how you do it.

I've got strikers with all the right stats missing one on ones, i've got good enough defenders making silly mistakes all the time. It almost as if, when i'm playing game after game, i'm waiting for the other team to score first and then just shut up shop. And just for the record i'm sick of, after the match the media is saying crystal palace miss chance to win. Any suggestions anyone? Thanks

Plenty of success stories, don't know how they do it though. I've had similar luck to you, still haven't won much in this particular FM yet

Have you read through threads by Clean, WWFAN, Rashidi and a number of others? If not, go take a look. Print one or two of them out. You will find a lot of helpful things.

Also, without knowing a whole lot more, what is your team tempo? That could be causing problems up top and on your back line if it is too high in games that it should be lower. (try replaying a game with these changes and see what happens.)

Also, is your passing broken up backline - direct, mid - mixed, strikers - short? Short passing b/t CBs is bound to cause problems. The pat it back and forth and the striker steps in, steals, etc.

Hard to tell what the main issues are here without more info, but those are just some easy suggestions.

There are plenty of success stories, the challenges Ollyh has listed out are one of many. I'm trying to balance things out and come up with a really rudimentary guide to making things work in the simplest way I know for FM.

Just trying to find the time to gather all off it so I can post it, but generally if you keep things simple you should be able to succeed in this game without too much effort.
