    Cesar Azpilicueta - The Best Fullback?

    He's probably the most consistent and best fullback I've had on FM14, even on the initial patch when people complained about underperforming fullbacks, he was my player of the season. In the recent 14.3 update, he is accomplished at left back and his left foot has also been upgraded, so you...

    Facing a team coached by Jose Mourinho?

    I took over Chelsea and City hired Mourinho after poor performances, he barely lost and took them from 6th to 2nd. So that's past. I think many like to play in EPL and must've faced a Jose Mourinho side definitely, I want to discuss how to beat a side coached by him, convincingly. Not talking...

    Poor first touch, regardless of attribute?

    Defenders do it all the time, giving up ball to opposition's poacher to give a one on one and they usually score since my GK just falls on his feet. But even players with 19/20 first touch do it a lot and give up possession. Once, twice I get it but even with the slowest of pass their first...

    Luke Shaw

    Luke shaw happens to have a low determination in this save, I prefer players with at least 11-12 determination. I'd thought he's a recognized talent so won't have random numbers, I knew from FM13 that he wasn't too determined but didn't check before paying hefty price for him. I currently have...

    [TACTICAL DISCUSSION] Efficient and effective

    The trend here at FM-Base seems to be all about dominating possession, playing pretty football, most people have a lot of shots and SOTs but none seem to score a lot. I'll say if you watch the game, you'll realize most of those efforts don't deserve to go in. When you dominate, opposition camps...

    Shane Long, the deadliest striker?

    He's been on outrageous form lately. I mean seriously, his decision making is surprisingly good. Has been better than most of Europe's elite for me, does not fluff clear cut chances AT ALL. When he has the ball in a clear cut situation, I've started feeling surprisingly confident, which I...

    The Curious case of Fernando Torres..

    His stats are quite poor to perform at this level, so I rarely used him after a few games at start. He looked completely useless on the pitch, fluffing most of my CCCs.. But then he suddenly decides to bang 4 goals in a match like an assassin, he also became a fan favorite, ****. He either...

    Return of "The Special One"

    Jose Mourinho returns to Chelsea, a club where he achieved a lot of success, he helped them win their first top division title since 1955. He was unfortunately sacked by the owner in 2007, but he still left a mark on the club. John Terry, Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba, Petr Cech who were brought...

    Unable to bid non-negotiable.

    I just installed FM14 again after a full wipe of Laptop. And it obviously downloaded 14.2 patch, but now I can't use non-negotiable bids in the game? I keep clicking on the **** "negotiable" button, but it just doesn't work, it stays that way. I'm playing in English as Chelsea, nothing else...

    Weird mind games.

    I'm managing Chelsea and I love playing mind games and I always criticize managers, no matter who it is. David Moyes had "Fairly poor opinion" of me for like a year, now he think he can be friends with me? And I'm also listed as favoured personnel of Man Utd? I'm manager of their rivals...

    Possession, Shots, CCC and Match Engine and other stuff. Tactical discussion.

    I've seen numerous people post screenshots of how frustrated they are with the ME as they dominate the game with possession, shots, SOTs and yet lose or draw. I was playing with Arsenal against Everton, I should've captured first half's screenshot but here are the stats and I was so frustrated...
