Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

Have you guys read any of the Tactical Development Workshops? If so, curious your thoughts...?

When you're a bottom feeder, playing one of the top teams in the league.... Make a tactical change, and it works to perfection....

Going to try a 3-5-2 tactic later tonight before the USA match. Never played with wing backs before. Always been a 4-2-3-1 guy.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

I love playing three at the back, I've had major issues filling the Wide Midfielder/Wing Back roles though, I basically have to wait for my academy to start churning out players.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

I find it off-putting how many times a team will play it's reserve/second squad against me in the continental competitions. It makes my run feel ****ty, and less realistic. We're in the Quarter Finals of the Europa League, I don't think there is a chance RB Leipzig leaves their starting centrebacks, starting wingers, starting goalkeeper, and top goalscorer out, playing away to Viborg with 1-0 lead. But here I am, going to the semi-final of the Europa League in my fourth year.

Of note, Liverpool did this in the UCL Group Stage, SLB in the UCL Group Stage, Spurs in both legs of the 2nd Knockout Round, and Leipzig here in the second leg of the QF.

Edit: After a surprise win at home, Lazio fielded ONE player over the age of 22 against me, and we went through to final vs Dortmund.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

Is there a big 'upgrade' over the summer/off season for player growth like in other games? Or do the players just continue to progress/regress per usual?
