Hi Guys,

I got this game the day it came out and thot wow this is great.

One thing I noticed is that, it is more realistic with the AI Teams improving after every game. I got to the stage where I thought that no matter what tactic I choose I aint going to go far. But then I came up with the below:

When Playing at home, I play an attacking 4-4-2 with the wingers making half runs up the pitch. I have my two strikers set to make forward runs and run with the ball. The tempo of the team should be quick, the passing should be direct and mentality should be attacking. At half time I am usually winning by a goal or 2 so I switch the tempo to slow and choose short passing.

When playing away, I play a defensive 4-3-1-2 with the attacking midfielder on a free role. running with the ball, making forward runs and playing through balls. This tactic requires a pacy upfronter as I set tempo to slow and passing style to long. Mentality should be defensive.

Using the above tactics I am scoring plenty of goals. Nearly every week the media is talking about how I have Rangers firering on all cilinders. I have scored around 50 odd goals in the league so far and I am not even half way through the season.

As I am at work at the moment this is about as much as I can get down just now, but if you have any questions on anything else that I do just give me a shout and I will happly anwser them.

May I note that now I am in my second season my tactic is not doing as good.

I hate this AI reset thing it does my head in.
