Football Manager 2015

[Maxwell]

Im still playing 2014 but having a nightmare trying to manage Deulofeu. Bought him for £24m after his loan (where did that money come from). And he's been bang average. Ive won the CL, League x2 by 2017 and he's thrown a massive strop at not being able to talk to Monaco. Actually making me dislike him in real life.

I usually don't dislike players for their FM behaviour but always have a soft spot for lower league players or foreign loan players that have done a job for me.

James McCarthy ????????

That's just so wrong.

Yeah back on FM2011 they signed him every single time

Can't get Lukaku to score, Howard has the handling skills of Abu Hamza. Sturridge is Dixie dean reincarnate. He had 17 by September.

How do you play Lukaku? I used him the same way as @yelyah a few pages ago, but instead of a complete forward - advanced forward.

Yeah changed him to AF- a bit better, Mirallas is pretty amazing, possibly overpowered, but our squad is good but not ridiculously over exaggerated like the RS's squad.

...I'm presuming this is a computer game, a bit like Sega Megabucks.

He is pretty boss. Sadly he broke his leg or something on my save ffs.

Has anyone noticed injured (during match) players ALWAYS score, Walcott, Remy, Gibson, Terry. The plus sign makes them superheroes rather than impeded. Fire worldies all over the shop.

Hibbo has a broken back, half the squad has hamstring tears. It's not as if you can immediately change the staff to prevent it, nor hire enough staff to keep the team happy

You can ask Kenwrong, he gave me about 2 or 3 more coaches.

You can just replace the physios with new, better ones tbf. Same with Dennis Lawrence, as he's not really that good.

Replaced most of the physios, most of the backroom staff. 4 stars in most catagories, but they're always stating not enough attention. I think you have to have 3 coaches on tactic training ect.. maybe its my save

Nah they are unreasonably demanding. I managed to get everyone to 3.5 (GK's on 4 only) but it seems you can't have one coach for one category anymore. You should see how much they moan at Rochdale ffs.

 

[DualityNSNO]

3.5 cuz every coach was doing at least 2 things...

I've now changed him to DLF and he's improved, but he's only scored 7 goals in 20 league starts due to injury, 13 in 26 starts in all comps

Atsu is a completely different story, I'm playing him as an IF (A) on the left, and he's scored 27 in 32 starts lol

Mirallas is great for me, 24 goals in 36 starts but despite no interest, he decided he wanted to join Chelsea one day and threw a tantrum because I told him there was no offer.

Atsu was so hit & miss for me. He'd do an Osman one game and score a hat trick the next... Probably improves a lot over time, but I stopped around November cuz it was too easy with Ebeptov.
