I started as Barca save as well. Eto'o is having a brilliant season for me so far with 14 goals and 12 assist halfway through Liga BBVA. Problem is I can not win on the road at all and can't get Messi going at all only 8 goals and 5 assist.

Did you try changing Messi's tactics. I give him max creative freedom, attacking mentality and forward runs often, run with ball often. I also have him shoot long shots often and give him a free role. With those instructions, he is devastating. I also have him take penalties.

I have Ibra as I used a modified database and he's doing alright.

You could say that. It was more of a "WHAT THE **** ARE YOU GUYS DOING OUT THERE?! WE SHOULD BE WINNING THIS ****ING GAME!!" kind of team talk...

Press announcement FM 10 release

I can't wait!!!! Only 2 and a half months to release although the WWSM game will usually come out a few days later. From the sounds of the forums, it looks like the game will be available on STEAM. I hope so anyway.

I like the fact that it will be more polished and the editor now allows you to create leagues. That's a sweet touch and an editor's dream. Can't wait

Why, why does it have to release soo close to FIFA?

I am definately buying both, but which one first I have no idea. It does seem a little silly to buy 09 now that 10 is so close, guess I will just stick with the demo for a few months more...

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

Ok, management gurus, need some help here. In the spirit of the EPL kicking off again, and '10 coming out soon, I have started a demo game as Chelsea.

Not going to well so far, the squad is a little beat up, including Dider Drogba. I have made a couple of purchases, both defenders.

1. Jay Demerit
2. Martin Caceres

I'm two games into the season right now, 0-1-1, a 3-1 loss to Manchester United, and a 0-0 tie to Blackburn.

So to the issue: My team has very poor morale.



Is there a way to see why they are so down? How should I go about bringing their Morale up?

Also, what can I do to increase possesion? We aren't holding onto the ball much.
