got a great go with notts county. Got an awesome team, loads of u21 ints, couple of full ints.

in a new league, made a great start, then lost 4 in a row seemingly without reason.

I'm not being harsh with team talks, esp after away games. I've got quite an attacking formation, switched to my more defensive one after losing a couple, conceded 2 in first 20mins of next game.

morale of squad isn't even that bad.

Read Wolfgangs teamtalk thread and that will help your players motivate themselves into pulling out a few needed wins in tough situations.

Other than that, with changing formations, allow a little time for the team to adapt to that system, even if results persist, as with anything in football. Change needs adaptation too.

Be patient with your team.

decent advice, thankyou. Will check the teamtalk thread.

the team knows my more defensive tactic, i use it quite often for persiods of 10 to 15 mins during games.

i am being patient. It's very hard not doing rash things like harsh teamtalks or singling out players who have let you down.

I've got a CB who my ast manager (good ratings for judging players) says would be a good signing for a prem league team. I've got the georgian int GK, great stats for league 1, and u21 defs, and i'm conceding lots of goals. Very frustrating.

but i will persist, the team's got great potential.
