Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think there is a league like that in the game which has such a wage gap from top to bottom.

What are you using as tactics?

In League One I used a 4-4-2 wing play tactic, but instead of sending in crosses, we did our best to work the ball into the box to Tyreece John-Jules, or whomever else was in the box.

Since moving up to the championship, I've retained the focus on the wings, but I switched to a direct counter attack approach. So far it's yielded nice results after a torrid first two games.

Still in the Europe hunt at the halfway point. I revamped my defense a little bit in the summer window, signing Ryan Sessegnon to play LWB, Pavard to play RB, and a 34 year old Otamendi for depth while my younger center backs continue to improve. Assane Diousse has been a revelation for me and has been an incredible defensive midfielder, but I'm afraid I won't get past deadline day with him on my squad because stupid Chelsea won't let me have nice things.

YOU GUESSED IT, THE 3RD PLACE TEAM IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP

So you know, this game makes total sense.

I've taken an FM break. Someone introduced me to Football, Tactics & Glory. And I've fallen into it pretty hard. Its a turn based strategy game. Its $20 on steam. I love turn based strategy games, so if you don't this probably isn't something you should check out. There is a demo on steam however which lets you play the first full season of 14 games. So maybe give it a go?


And I think I'm done with this. LOL

We came crashing back to reality in January, finishing 12th, our attendances finally started coming back to life as well as we got up to 9k for most of our home matches which has thankfully stabilized our finances after two..... less than optimal years.

I went on a run of 9 unbeaten (including wins against Liverpool and Arsenal), only to be brought down to earth by City away where I lost 2-0.

I’m now sniffing the Europa League places, have about 50 million in the bank, and the board has granted just about every request I made. The Watford board really likes my success.

I'm getting my national c license so that's likely all I'll get out of this season, but I still have half a season to try and salvage something. I'm not confident, though, this team is allergic to scoring.
