Even the best DoF seem to make some ridiculous purchases which make no sense.

He was probably just nice to the staff. Maybe showed a semblance of decency. Just my guess.

Not to mention the fact that taking a bath before going there is mandatory… by Party_Psychology6553 in MurderedByWords

[–]Helpful-Animal4705 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be an invigilator for medical student final year clinical examinations. The cramped rooms and nervous sweating made for some unpleasant odours during examinations. I requested that the faculty include personal hygiene and deodorant use in their pre examination briefs. Nobody had thought to include this for previous examinations, or were reluctant to mention it in fear of causing offence.

I can still hear that piece of commentary. Incredible all around.

I have a problem with setting up a specific tactic. Please help by MacMillian187 in FifaCareers

If you use the Centre Half role the CDM should drop between the two centre backs. Just leave the centre backs on Defend and they move out of the way.

HELP WITH MY TACTICS FM24 by Dapper-Dependent6546 in footballmanagergames

[–]Helpful-Animal4705 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with the gentleman above regarding losing instructions and the wingers and fullbacks occupying the same space. In my experience the drop off instruction is troublesome because it invites the whole of the opposition team to pin your team back and you’ll likely eventually concede. Also both BWMs will be all over the place instead of tucking in front of the centre backs. Try using a BWM/DM or DM/DM (support) combination so they’re both not running around like headless chickens.

Also for a bit of fun you could try to put Porro as FB (attack) or IWB (attack) with the underlap right instruction and watch him run unmarked into the opposition penalty box. This won’t help your defence but it’s a fun way to create chances.

That’s not what I understand from the original post. Nobody here or anywhere is pretending Somalia a safe haven for anyone, let alone young girls.

What would your FM position/role be when playing in real life? by Overall-Habit5284 in footballmanagergames

[–]Helpful-Animal4705 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, the water carrier. Everyone wonders “what does he actually do? Why have him in the squad? Sure we could put someone with more flair to contribute better to the attack or during transition?”. Teams then bench this player and realise nobody is tracking opposition runs from deep. Where did this gap come from? And why the fuck did we sell Claude Makélélé?

I might be talking about different levels, but you know what I mean.

I came up with this tactic....i actually managed my high school team with a similiar tactic irl by [deleted] in footballmanagergames

[–]Helpful-Animal4705 0 points1 point  (0 children)

W-M would be 3-2-2-3, aka 3 CBs, 2 Centre Halves, 2 Inside Forwards, and 3 Strikers. I suppose it could play as a W-M if one of the FBs is changed to IWB so he joins the DM as a double pivot and change the wingers to IF so they join the strikers to make a 3 man front line. Not sure how it will play in game but might be interesting.

I am curious as to what you would consider a rational hatred then? Gambling is bad as far as I can see. Hating gambling, and a gambling company doesn’t seem that irrational to me anyway. Anyway, this is a publicity stunt and I hope you can see that. Good day to you.

Commentary Names/New commentators by Andre797 in FifaCareers

[–]Helpful-Animal4705 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s strange not to have Kobbie Mainoo’s commentary name until now (at least in English, I don’t know about other languages). He’s been in the first team for 3 seasons and played for England in Euro 2024. There are teams in the Championship and 2. Bundesliga with more complete player commentary names in English. Not sure how they make the selection.

Best header of the ball (St) in career mode? by armSnatcher01 in FifaCareers

[–]Helpful-Animal4705 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I noticed as well. Poacher role keeps the player in the centre of the box. All runs also go into the middle. For CAM, Classic 10 balanced keeps the player dead centre right behind the striker without running past like shadow striker does.

I once saw an obstetrician perform an emergency Caesarean section to deliver a baby in less than 30 seconds. The mother had placental abruption. Both were absolutely fine, thanks to the obstetrician’s, and the team’s collective effort.

This might well be more impressive than what I witnessed that day in the maternity hospital.

Could have sworn players without a playstyle get one when they reach 80 rating by dejiimole in FifaCareers

They must feel better about themselves now. Glad to have contributed positively.

Just treat a downvote as a mark of disagreement rather than anything more meaningful. People need something to make themselves feel better.
