I won the title, the cup and the Uefa cup with Anderlecht last year. This summer I signed Verpakovskis and Collen, but I dunno why the results are quite 'poor' this year. I hoped to qualify from my CL group and reach quarters or semi's but I'm really struggling behind Real and Monaco.
In the league i used to win all my matches easily, but this year it's hard and I'm only third. I thought it might be time to use a new tactic. Did you guys have the same type of problem? I mean my players are good (Kompany, Vanden Borre, Guarin, Mascherano, Bierofka, Wilhelmsson, Adu, Roncatto, Zidan, Verpakovskis,....) it's just the tactics.

I'm currently 3rd in the legue with Roma, 8 points behind Milan and they have a game less. They've gotten incredibly strong since I sold them Cavenaghi 
I just played 1-1 with Ternana, after conceding a goal when Miguell missed to clear the ball. He was transfer listed after the match, he wont play a minute for me ever again.

'bout the tactics, I slightly modified it, and won the next match 4-0.
And I finished first from my CL group, 'cause I've beaten Real Madrid at home (3-2 a crazy match, the 7-8 last minutes were crazy, with both teams playing gung ho, desperate for victory. The winning goal was scored in the 94'! I was so happy I fell on the ground and actually hurt my back...). And I drew .............. Juve in the 1/8. This is gonna be very hard.
BTW, I tried to buy Kapo, and Juve agreed for a structured deal of 14Mill €, but I couldn't satisfy his salarial exigences... I'm gonna try again at the end of the season.
OMG. I got past Juve.
Won 1-0 at home, I was bloody nervous for the return in Delle Alpi, and I won 1-4 !!!!!!!!!
Totally incredible, the Title is almost won (16 points ahead), and I'm in quarters vs Inter. Nothing is impossible now!
Btw I think Inter is very strong in FM. Specially Martins! He always scored at least twice per match vs my Juve team....

The game has become much harder indeed. I just had 3 very hard matches, but I managed to do well. First, I had Inter in the Serie A, played 1-1, altho I could have won (damn you Bobo Vieri!!!), then I beat Juve 2-0 in the Serie A, and Milan 3-0 in the Coppa.
I'm 3rd in the league with 4 points behind Juve and 10 behind Milan with 15 games to go. Milan is just too strong, they have like 21 wins, 2 defeats and no draws in the league. I still have a chance tho, I've played all the big teams already while Milan still has to play against Inter, Juve and me in the remaining 15 matches. I'm playing them in the Olimpico so I expect a win.
My advice to you is, if you have better players than the other team, just play the same tactics they are playing. My custom tactics always get beaten by Juve or Inter, so I just play their tactics or the computer's 4-4-2, and it works.

im in the 2nd season now, in the 1st one, i won coppa italia, semi finals CL, 2nd in scudetto (inter got it)...... i bought Bonera in the second season, Cassano for Trezeguet and Baptista in midfield ( btw, Baptista is the best DM in the game i say), and i got 2 young defenders....... anyway, i finsihed 4 th in the serie A, won the CL against Milan......
At the end of the transfer market I bought Heitinga from Ajax as Cannavaro's replacement. Beat Milan and Barcelona in the Italian Supercup and European Supercup final respectively. I'll try to get a new RB, though, and if I get a good offer, I'll sell Emerson and buy Mascherano. Cassano is for free next year, so I'll get him as DP's replacement.
My team:
Buffon
Zebina - Kompany - Heitinga - Zambrotta
Camoranesi - Emerson - VDV - Nedved
Robinho - Trezeguet/Zlatan
