The next issue of The Bootroom fanzine has an in depth article of how to close the game out in the final 10 mins.

Its out next week, if you can wait that long?

No you shouldn't. By going ultra defensive you're inviting pressure onto your team. You should look to get more players behind the ball, slow the game down, keep possession and time-waste while attempting counter attacks.

You say the players should no how to do this themselves but then what would be the point of a football manager game. Remember, this is a game. If you didn't have to actually do any managing then there wouldn't be a lot of point to it.

Michelle!

Am I the only one that laughed at that?

Yep, it works pretty well actually. The fact that you're using the 'Counter Attack' option means that when the players have a chance they'll look to get the ball forward and attack quickly. That doesn't mean you constantly have to play defensive, direct, fast football. If that was the case what would be the point of having a counter attack option that you could tick?

no chopper I don't win and I don't want to. but just tell me smth, are getting paid for your defending of this game. do you think game is of good quality?

I feel your pain. There seems to be nothing you can do. If the computer wants you to conceed then you will.

Even if you change your tactics to ultra defensive, players behind the ball, time wasting set to often and have counter attacking you've got more chance of winning the lottery in a plane crash than holding onto your lead. The chances of counter attacking and scoring yourself are even less!

Then the match will go to extra time, then penalties and despite having players with 20 composure and 20 penalty taking you will lose the shootout. It is FM law!
