>>64713512
It's better than 15 in my opinion, haven't read any reviews and I haven't noticed any problems that 15 didn't already have. what are the guys on steam complaining about?

Alaba is obviously a good signing, but I don't understand the other three at all. Are you just signing players you like?
>>64717780
Pelle the exception. Signed Lucas because at the time, coquelin, wilshere and flamini were all injured. saw Lucas was available for half the price, as he was listed so I went for him. His value is still at around 14m so wasn't that bad.
Apart from the numerous cards (down to my tactics) he's done pretty well.
Klose was mainly to tutor the young players mental stats.

Having trouble with tactics in 16. Is there any merit to not changing the team tactics at all, and just editing the player instructions?
Then just changing to attacking and stuff like that in match depending on the result?
How do you guys do it.
Why should I ever play matches when my assman is way better than me?
>>64718708
download other people's tactics.
Honestly i think it varies with each team you're managing and what league you're in.
Just highlight your teams strengths or what some players are good at and go from there. I always prepare def positioning though and i only train players to play the role and position im asking them too.
Then it's all about micro managing, keep praising for good form, have team meetings etc.
>>64718863

I desperately need a good Shadow Striker.
Chuks is £4m while Pavon is £2.4m
Wages offered are about equal, though Pavon wants a shorter contract (2y/4y)
Pavon is only accomplished at AMC, and would need some positional training.
Chuks seems to have reached his potential, while Pavon still has some way to go.
>>64719292
Catania
>>64719371

>>64719371
>signing africans
Pavón is cheaper and has more potential. That alone should tell you who to sign. Although, if you want a good first teamer, you should go for neither. And if you go for Pavón, don't sign him for anything under 3 years.
>>64719234
>implying i do
it was a joke/easy bait for autists like yourself.
>>64719496
>if you want a good first teamer, you should go for neither
Pavon is a leading player for most eredivise sides, while Chuks is a star player for most eredivise sides.
>>64719511
Hey, I'm going to let you in on something kept real quiet these years: Sarcasm rarely works when you only have text to use.
If it was a joke, it was neither funny nor had any indication that it was supposed to be.
If it was 'bait', it was also shit because it was posed as advice.
And I don't care if you do or don't, suggesting it to others is enough of a reason to fuck off.
>>64719551
Are those two really your only options? I'd sign Pavón if I had to choose, then. He's pure cheese.
>>64719579
>download other people's tactics
>Honestly was the word used straight after
Sarcasm is very easily understood via text maybe i should have said 'Honestly though' to avoid people like yourself.
>If it was a joke, it was neither funny nor had any indication that it was supposed to be.
Are you being serious?
>If it was 'bait', it was also shit because it was posed as advice.
back to reddit mate.
>>64719600
Perhaps not, but I have a limited budget (£6m) and I don't feel my rep has been boosted yet after finishing 2nd with Utrecht.
If you have any reccomendations I'd appreciate it, but Shadow Strikers don't exactly grow on trees you know.

>>64721169
>>Another team bids 900k
>>they accept
Three possible scenarios
1) They included a ton of clauses making the ultimate value at least the same as yours if not more
2) You are a biggish rep club and they figure they can afford to ask you for more but the player has been unsettled by transfer rumours meaning they are willing to accept less from certain teams that are not yet in negotiation because they know they will lose him and won't be able to bleed other teams for bigger sums of money.
3) Other team is substantially bigger than you or a favoured club of the player so whilst the club do not feel pressured to sell to you and will ask for larger sums they know refusing him a sale to that club will upset him so they are more willing to let him go there even if it does mean he goes for a smaller sum.
Also I guess a few other things like being a rival club, being in the same league, manager liking/disliking you/the other manager, existing agreement between clubs about transfers, all sorts that weigh into it.
>>64721313
A CM(S) maybe? What about the AP and the DM?
I want a team that will stay in possession and try to dominate the match, maybe even press high up the pitch.
>>64721422
How about that free transfer XI on the BBC eh?
>team actually works together to score
nice
tactic is working
>>64721438
I would personally go with a CM(d) or BWM(s).
>>64721468
CM(D) together with an Anchor Man seems a bit too defensive for my taste. BWM(S) seems like a better choice, however I do not have the right players for the role nor the money to buy a good player... Maybe if I sell someone in the meantime.
>manure
yeah, made perfect sense to sack a manager for finishing 4th only to hire someone who got sacked from Arsenal for finishing 7th
How do I get these buffoons to actually execute the counter
>>64721546
cm(d) works by just sitting in the midfield when you're in possession, but basically the same as a cm(s) when you don't have the ball.
considering you'll have your three up front, plus the AP and two wing backs supporting them, I wouldn't feel as though you'd need another body up front and him doing nothing in midfield would actually be more beneficial than pushing forward (by drawing defenders out and providing an easy way to cross the ball to the other side of the pitch).
On the whole, the BWM would probably be the best bet as he would press high up the pitch, but do essentially the same as a cm(d) in offense.
I wouldn't bother selling anyone for it, just use an average midfielder who can make simple passes and easy tackles as a cm(d) and he should do well.

You would start by making a tactic that's not retarded.

you do realize that intake quality is relative to the quality of your squad in the first place, right?
eventually your whole squad is going to be near world class, and then no matter how much you've put into youth recruitment, youth coaching, training facilities, and scouting, your intakes will be dogshit more often than not. much, much more often.

How long before a contract is up can you offer someone a contract without going through their club?
>>64736753
6 months or something, it starts around the last five days of december. You'll get a reminder if you put the guy on your shortlist I think.

Strange, it's Jan and the contracts end in June but I can't do it, is the rule different between two English clubs?
>>64736945
I don't think so. Approach to sign under contract should be available.
>>64736832
dm != regista
>>64736945
english clubs can't approach any other player under contract with an english club.
>>64736994
That explains it, thanks. I thought it was a 6 month deal for everyone
>>64736945
I can't remember the exact rules, but in England it's different. They can't do it 6 months before the contracts are up to another English team. It may be 3 months prior, or not at all. I've definitely poached English players with 6 months left from a different country.
>>64736868

Though I don't trust Czech players. They look amazing as youth, then stop developing early.
And they are actually first.

It's a FM16 thing, since strikers are retarded and defenders make too many last minute blocks you get an extraordinary amount of corners, therefore they made it harder to score them
I seem to get the most success by having atleast one attack from deep and one standing on the edge of the box where you aim the majority of corners (you do get some cases of the corner taker passing it almost all the way back to the half way line because he's retarded or something)
wha
Oh, well...
>>64737847

>We love a good training ground bust-up. They only get reported every so often but when they do they are always a good source of drama. File this firmly under 'reported' but according to the Telegraph, Chelsea's Diego Costa and Oscar had to separated by "stunned" (aren't they always) team-mates in training on Thursday after a poorly-timed tackle by the latter.
>A source told Telegraph Sport: “Oscar’s challenge was outrageous, it was straight into the knee of Costa and could have done him some real damage. That sparked a brawl between them and the other players had to stop it.”
Based Oscar
>>64737348
>>64737847
I had the most success in corners ever having a guy with "takes first time shots" attack from deep. He only had 10 finishing, but he would smash them in all the time.

like look at these performances

fuck off FM doesn't mirror that like IRL
i put in any other player into any role and they play fine but he's still shit, missing sitters left and right, never able to beat his man, literally only having a highlight once in a blue moon where a defender takes the ball away from him
all he's good for at this point is being a defensive supersub, only good highlights he ever has is him tackling
>>64740095
FM is the most realistic simulator on the market. It mirrors real life better than real life.
>>64740122
agreed, but it only simulates being used to tactics as a whole, players themselves don't have any measure for gettting used to specific roles

>tainting your shortlist with cheese
Pogba for 180m y/no? He's the missing piece in my tactic
>>64751693
>>64751696
Ok, i'll do it
>>64751686
>180m
that's in brazillian reais, right?
cuz how the fuck else would spending anything over 60m even cross your mind.
>>64751713
It's a tough world out there and Pogba is exactly the player that i want.
>>64751686
Do it breh, YOLO
No better feeling than a STAR player
>>64751728
get a regen
>>64751738
There are no decent regens around yet

you're not looking hard enough.

>>64751766
I have like 30 regens on my shortlist and several scouts focussed on u19 players. Nobody is even close to the ability of my players and i don't want to wait 5 years.

>Subject to conditions, however, the transfer may eventually rise to €188,000,000
>>64751775
of course they won't be close in CA
but it's not like you're in danger of being relegated, you don't need saving.
but you could probably spend 20m total and get a regen who after 1 season with your first team would perform at 98% of pogba and after 2 would be identical.
>>64751790
I deserve it desu
>>64751796
m8 have you seen Pogbas attributes in 16? Even a 180+ PA Regen may not become this good. Also i'm fighting for the title in the league, so anything below 5th spot is dangerous. Look at Barcelona, they smashed the league last season and then lost the first 4 games.
>>64751796
but will he be POGBA?
GTFO regenfag

forgot pic
Also the prices in this DB are higher than in the PL in real life, i changed it via the editor and prices are ~15% higher for players of the same reputation than they are in real life
>>64751828
Uh wait, not in real life. In the standard DB in the Premier league.
