Didn't know they put real business men in the game for takeovers and stuff.

Tried a save with Milan and Elliott sold the club, some guy named Giovanni Ferrero bought it. I didn't think twice about it because I never heard of him. Then I get a welcome message from the new owner and by his name I see a picture (I use cut-out) which means he's a real person, not generated by the game. I google him and it turns out dude owns Nutella, Kinder and Tic Tac lmao. He pumped in a lot of money and now I'm going for the kill :D

What's the funny part.



And you guys weren't kidding about fullbacks dominating. It's insane.



Also half the goals are CMs shooting long range goals.




Just won Tottenham 8-0. Scored in 50 minutes. Then subbed key players and put on defensive tactic lol.

In all seriousness, he has been a beast thus far, i'm in 2022 and he is still >25 goals every season, he has outscored Ronaldo every season,
although im not sure how to best use Ronaldo,

Looking for any kind of help you can give. I am doing OK with Brescia.
We're doing well, creating enough chances each game and we always dominate possession. But we can't score. We draw most games because we can't put in that winning goal, and obviously, we are defensively weaker than most and play fairly risky.

As you can see everything is really basic. But is there something wrong with the tactic, something needed to be tweaked or is it something mental? Or do I need to find a new striker? My budget is €0. Or wait, I sold someone I should have something like €200 000. I usually play 4141 or something similar with vertical tiki-taka but, I felt 41212 gegenpress was the best for the players available, but maybe I am wrong?

    there is a lot wrong with your tactic for the current state of this games ME. first off, a highline is suicide. Gotta play either deep or normal at most.

    2nd, you cant play through the middle in this game CMs and CAMs just pass the ball sideways or backwards. get wingers and play to the flanks.

    3rd, youve got way too many specialist roles. you need to play mostly generic with 1-2 specialist roles

    I'm enjoying my Liverpool game alot, first season I scored 129 goals in league, 35 wins out of 38, lots of 7-0, 8-0 (two times vs Tottenham), 5-0 results. In CL I scored like almost 60 haha, easy CL title. 6-1 win on Atletico, 6-2 on Juve and best of all, over 2 legs I scored 14-0 on Real Madrid



    Haaland is crazy, I got him 2nd season, in first month he has scored 17 goals haha.


    Playing crazy offensive geggen pressing counter attacking 4-1-2-3, and the 3 upfromt are all strikers, not 2 wingers. And it's not really 4 defenders, because the fullbacks are pushed up to wingback, they are the key to the tactic, deliver tons of balls to the fast attackers.

    What are the specialist roles, my DLP, mezzela and trequartista, or?

    Ok I'll try with 4141 but then I'll be forced to play Balotelli alone and I think he'll do poorly. Or maybe try 442 with AML/R and go all out attack and hope for the best? :D
