Default last minute goals.

I have been conceding an extraordinary amount of last minute goals, it seems every time i lose game on FM08 which is pretty regularly its down to last minute goals, this has happened across my last 3 saves now (Vicenza, QPR/Salamanca and Crystal Palace)

Now i realise conceding last minute goals is a regular occurrence irl, however seemingly to get a result you have to change your WHOLE footballing philosophy in the final minutes just to hang onto a 1-1 draw. Whereas the AI seemingly just quickly changes to 4-2-4 and they are constantly on the attack and you never get a look in at all, not one highlight. I know you say, "well you only remember the times that you lose in the last minutes and not win" i realise this and i genuinely can count on one hand the amount of times, i've scored with the last kick of the game but I would need 10 hands to count how many goals i've conceded like that. I feel that the opposition strikers of any team you play get 10 times better whilst my players get 10 times worse.

ps. I have tried many things, to make this work. all out defense, all out attack, keep things the same, slightly more defensive etc.

I think this is a bug, not totally sure. What version of FM 08 are you using? Is it the unpatched version by any chance?

It is your tactic, you MUST shut up shop, put everyone behind the ball when defending a 1 goal lead for last minutes. Time wasting maximum.

Normally when AI 4-2-4 me AI is dead.

How do you set up your team's creative freedom nellinho?

If setting all sliders to the left (apart from time wasting) NEVER keeps out the 4-2-4 there must be something intrinsically wrong with your setup. Unless you're Spurs of course, who're just crap.

i only patched it once, where is this second patch?

I would be happy putting everyone behind the ball for the last minutes but what about if i'm drawing?

Asmo- i set up my C. freedom to every mixed except the keeper and centre halfs who are on the lowest setting.

Same link as first patch, it's just a newer build (27mb instead of 10mb)

I dont think this is a bug at all to be honest , its as real life as anything else. When you get lazy as a manager. try different things.

Before the patch, I did concede 4 goals starting from 87th min to the end of game (93th), from 3-0 lead down to 4-3 lost. I was lazy to switch tactics, but still AI 4-2-4 could be such miracle!

That did happen in 07 too, but when patches came out, such phenomenon is gone.
