I don't know where to start with this one.

Firstly, the OP has taken Aberdeen to second in the table. So surely he's had some pretty excellent results along the way.

Secondly, is it really so rare to batter teams and still fail to win? And, yes, it can happen in consecutive games. Liverpool are considerably better than some of the teams they've failed to beat lately. But it happens.

My suggestion would be to keep working at your tactics. Just a couple of tweaks here and there. Before you know it, especially if your team is as good as you say, you'll find yourself on a winning streak again.

Yes "tactics", "team talk" and "opposition instructions" do make the difference.
If your team is creating lot's of chances but not scoring, it's due to pressure!!!
This comes either from media or even from yourself.
Telling your wingers and strikers individual at halftime that there is no pressure on them, and by telling the others that you are pleased would probably have done the trick!
That's all the help i give you, you deserved those results only for telling FM is crap here! :p

Mike7007: I seen the stats for Liverpool, but my point is more with regards to one team have the chances converted against them and failing to score with so many. The away team has a conversion of around 85% over 3 games, the home team has a rate of around 4%, these are rough figures but you see my point.

tactics are too important. And one winning tactic may fail if rival is aware, this is because sometimes crap teams beat you just after you kicked a giant ass.

If you play against a defensive team, change your tactic. Don't have just 1, at least have two and maybe tweak them.

Notice the red card which was in the 48th min, guess the result? 2 nil to St Mirren, I know this happens, I have never once doubted that, but 3 times in a row!!!

Can you post a screenshot of your fixture list and then screenshots of the 3 matches in a row where you were beaten by a team that had a player sent off in each match.

Thanks :thup:.

Are you saying that this happens a lot? Or just in the games you referred to in your original post?

I ask because if it's the previous, then surely, by logic, you wouldn't have made it to second in the league.

And if it happened only in the games you mentioned in your original post, then can you not put that down as an unfortunate sequence of events, as a real manager would have to, and try to figure out what you can do to get it sorted out?
