ok.. after 20 league games i think ill stop playing. few very bad things happening with this game. lets start:
1. first post bug(corners). simple, all my corners end up on first post, even i have mix selected. i called few of my friends and they told me they have same problem, but they "fix" that. they remove player from near post, and put him on far. and they put corners go to far post. but thats not solution for me. i want near post corners.

2. midfield players problem. ok , even i dont have hard tackling selected, in my first 6 games i had 4 red cards, 3 from 2 central midfield positions. im not talking about same player, they all get yellows or reds per game. its sick, because i must change player after 30 min, becuse i know there are very good chances he will get another yellow card. often i must change both my central mid. players in half time, because they get yellow card.

3. 1 on 1 chances. its so funny that SI say that this problem doesnt exist, as i read on other forum. my striker Cisse had 6 times in a row in one game chances that he was alone with GK. he missed all of them, but thats not the problem. problem is that there are way to many chances and shoots at goal per game. and way to many 1 on 1 chances.

4. but not last problem. lack of SI help on these forums. SI usually had good support, but i guess all this heat about FM LIVE, didnt do good for all of us regular FM manager buyers. i mean, these things im talking about really are bad for the game. but they dont mention another patch, they are not on forums, etc.

p.s. i heard there are some big problems with registration in spain league, but i cant confirm that, because i didnt play spain league. o yes, and for 2 years i cant play online with my friend. some stupid ruters fixes, bla bla bla. when i asked them on help online topic, why i cant play, they didnt respond. of course.

1. Near post flick on is truly useless. However, attack near post works just fine.

2. I used to have this problem, but I reduced their closing down and increased the closing down on my wing players. Now the wingers just hurry the person on the ball into making a bad pass that my central players intercept.

3. I'm curious, how many times does the commentary say "Only the goalkeeper to beat" or "He's one on one with the goalie" in chances you create?

4. You are wrong here. They have given a relative time for the next patch (after the next transfer window) and SI representatives are on the forum all the time, even on Christmas day or eve maybe one of them was on running tests to debunk some crackpot's asinine theory.

5. i forgot this one. if ref says 3 more minutes, they play 5 more minutes. anyway, match engine is always playin 2 minutes more then it should. right now i was playin away in champ league, ag inter and i needed draw to be in top 2. result was 2-2. ref said 3 minutes, but in 94 min and 45 secund ibrahimovic scored and im out of champ league. i must say that i didnt play wasting time. this game upsets me to much. in FM07 you didnt had so cheap bugs that can upset u.


Njal_tw - tnx for advice about midfields. but tell me is that realistic? what should i put? that my midfield is playin soft? no closing down and no tackling? my midfields central playing litlle more then normal closing down. why they get so many yellows and reds? they are here to crush others team midfield, not to give them flowers god dam.

"I'm curious, how many times does the commentary say "Only the goalkeeper to beat" or "He's one on one with the goalie" in chances you create?"

i really dont know, because i watch pitch 2D, i dont read much what it says on commentary. but on pitch he is goin alone and only has GK to beat. i can tell you that.

I have 2 MC's on normal closing down, normal tackling. 3 AM's on the 2nd click of whole pitch closing down and normal tackling and a striker on the 3rd click of whole pitch closing down normal tackling and the MC's were booked 4 times in 48 matches and 6 times in 52 matches. Could be something else about my formation that causes it but I haven't had any problems with yellows with this set up and have had problems with a 4-4-2 that has high closing down with the MC's.

As for stoppage time, it seems a little off. Some of the time the game will end when the ball has gone out for a corner without letting the team even take it.
