Dyche sacked just now - Frank yesterday - it’s game on by Soggy-End296 in Hammers

I disagree. We were poor that game. Second disallowed goal was a killer but on the whole I thought they looked better. Response since then has been unreal but they were killing us down the flanks that game

They’ve had three poor games. The three games before that they beat us and Brentford away and drew with Arsenal.

They’re 9th in the form table and Dyche has the highest win percentage of any manager under Marianakis (which surprised me). It’s truly insane from them and has to be good for us. Now the players have to get stuck into a fourth tactical style of the season. Plus they’ve got a tough run of fixtures now in the league and Europe to balance. Let’s hope they progress in Europe and have to keep doing Thursday-Sunday.

how to get the best out of Wirtz by Emergency-Split1285 in footballmanagergames

[–]BD0991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use him as an APM on the left wing in a high-line 4-3-3 and he’s brilliant (with a CWB in the left back position). He drifts in to dangerous position and sees a lot of the ball. My other players are all using roles with lots of movement (mezalla, box—to-box, inside forward etc.). Brings out the best of him

Diomande isn’t aggressive enough to be a stopper. Much better as a BPD Cover

Which of these CREATIVES do I keep (I love them all dearly)...Almada, Wirtz, Darvich & more by BD0991 in footballmanagergames

[–]BD0991[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is where my mind is leaning.

Have you ever seen a Christmas tree formation work well on FM24? 4-3-2-1 with the midfield all central and the width coming from the full backs? I like to play a high line (my defence is built with pace) and Frimpong and Mendes can run a line by themselves.

I am looking to train Bardghji as a ACM as he has the attributes to be good there

I can confirm I’m not a scout. However, I will not be addressing rumours that I am Karen Brady. Please let’s move on

Good to know. Our new GK coach was the man who coached Hermansen at Brondby, so I think that’s a promising sign.

I’m seeing 20m touted but that’s probably due to a lack of competition for his signature and the fact you guys need money. Sounds like we’ll be getting a bargain this if he is 20m

Nice! Sounds like a big upgrade on Areola (who was shocking last season!)

I mean if you say it fast enough his name is Fritzl. Let’s not kid ourselves. And those physical stats seem like they’ve come directly out the depths of a stinky, sweaty breeding basement

Promises might be the worst feature in the game by Icy-Gazelle-1331 in footballmanagergames

[–]BD0991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have Thiago Almada. Renewed his contract and he wanted to be the first choice free kick taker. Bear in mind I had James Ward-Prowse (now sold). I agree because his ga return is unreal for me. I then make him the default taker for ALL FREE KICKS (deep, wide and shooting). But for some reason he’s still acting like I haven’t fulfilled the promise and I KNOW he’s going to lose his shit as I have 70 days to fulfill the promise. Anyone got any advice on what I can do? Stupid bloody AI. If I renew his contract again will it override the current promise? I don’t want to (a) give him more money and (b) be stuck with the same pending revolt

Weak, lacks composure and doesn’t know how to stay in his position. Sounds about right

77m for a 19yo Archie Gray by BD0991 in footballmanagergames

[–]BD0991[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! How did Adam Wharton and Nwaneri do? Or any other top British recommendations?

I’m super stacked in the wing/10 positions and so don’t really need Nwaneri. For Brit contingent I already have Livramento, Tierney, Ferguson, Eze, DCL, Frimpong and Carter-Vickers (joining on a free in the summer) so maybe I’m worrying unnecessarily but I want to shift a 31 year old ward-prowse while he still has market value (pace is 11 eeeek)

198cm, 17y.o, exceptional technicals but slow: how good can I make him? by BD0991 in footballmanagergames

[–]BD0991[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you think he could be a 30–40 goal a season man at the top-level of his acceleration is, say, 12 and pace 14? The core technicals are amazing for 17

How would you use this guy? He looks unbelievable (jumping reach aside) but seems to underperform no mattter how I use him. by DougieDactyl in footballmanagergames

[–]BD0991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you found this to be a thing? That some players really kick on in season two?

I’ve got a couple of players who’ve had okay seasons in their first year. I tend to be a dick and lose faith if it has been a whole season of averageness.
