I had a load of their players on my shortlist but took them off.Reading is like the fecking Manchester City of this world.
They look at who I've short listed and then bid on them. The shit weasel.
My Millwall team went to shit halfway through division 2 after I started buying loads of players when all the transfers bans expired. You seem to be constantly buying, it may have an effect on results maybe?I can't win a game on this anymore. No idea what I'm doing wrong
Me neither Cider, many more results like this and I'll give up both leagues.
Stupid.
It's funny that both of you played a 4-4-1-1 against a 4-2-3-1 and had the same amount of possession (41%). Lesson learnt.I can't win a game on this anymore. No idea what I'm doing wrong
I doubt it's anything to do with that; the morale of all my players is in the green and I've only one who's unhappy at not getting enough games.My Millwall team went to shit halfway through division 2 after I started buying loads of players when all the transfers bans expired.

Exactly, I adopted a 4-2-3-1 with Spurs at the end of last season and it hardly helped what so ever.What's the lesson though?
As I said, I've tried adopting tactics that have worked previously against the tactics my opposition uses, but soon I gave that up when it invariably led to me simply losing by a greater margin than usual.
I've looked through loads of games trying to get a handle on what beats what, I spent hours at the end of last season going through games and entering tactics into an Excel spreadsheet with the hope of finding out which work well against which others; all I found was that everything works well against everything else, except sometimes everything fails miserably against everything else.
I noticed Levo used a 4-4-1-1 in his last fixture, and so in retaliation I played my tried and trusted defensive 4-2-3-1 tactic against a better side away from home. The extra man in midfield was obviously the main factor.It's funny that both of you played a 4-4-1-1 against a 4-2-3-1 and had the same amount of possession (41%). Lesson learnt.
I know. I don't expect all the information to be handed to me on a plate as to what went wrong and how to fix it but in real life there's still some indication of what is wrong with your team whereas here there's nothing and you're left to decide for yourself which usually ends up in more poor results.I doubt it's anything to do with that; the morale of all my players is in the green and I've only one who's unhappy at not getting enough games.
I just can't find any tactics that work. The problem is, there doesn't seem to be any way of deciphering what went wrong when I lose, or what I've got to change to get the best out of my players; I play attacking and lose, so I play defensive and then still lose; I've even tried copying tactics directly from teams who're winning a lot, but I still lose; I look at what tactics my opponent plays and what tactics have beaten those same tactics in previous games, but I still lose. I'm not sure what else to try really.
I'm baffled by it tbh. The tactics side of things seems to be one big convoluted game of paper/scissor/stone, only you're never told what beats what, and anyway, more often than not, what beats what one game contradicts what beats what in the next; to make matters worse, what does eventually beat what doesn't seem to have any grounding in common sense in regards to the actual game of football.I know.

Then why are you asking for one of my players on loan?Looks like I am losing over £100,000 a week.
