Thanks!

Those guides and fmscout in general certainly have been helpful, mostly as a reminder of how realistic FM is and how much common sense needs to be applied. For example I was playing my two CMs in their best/favoured roles as ball winning midfielders, which you'd never do in real life as they'd both be dragged all over the pitch chasing the ball and offer no central support, yet for some reason it didn't occur to me that it would be a problem in FM. I just wanted to play my players how/where their best rating was and didn't consider that certain styles or individual tactics would clash and be counter-productive.

Anyway I think I have the individual and team tactics sorted now, still clueless about training and development so will read up on that at the end of this season.
