Good luck mate, it’s an enjoyable one even though trying to get the best out of 4 players is a tough task!

I had that issue when giving it ago, stupidly i never checked with anyone other than Pulisic is able to play on the wing untill @ScottishFMMposted them screenshots. 

Thinking now of having another crack but returning Mount/Havertz to potential wingers. 

[Titjes]

Good luck 😉

[Rob]

Good luck 

[ScottishFMM]

Thanks @Rob @Titjes @Jsavfc and @RichD.

 

Sitting pretty at the top of the tree in November but found myself struggling to get Werner goals😬

Update

We’ve reached January and midway through the season were....

Spoiler

Unbeaten but too many draws😤. Goals are coming in from all areas of the pitch so very pleased in that aspect! 
 

Signings!

 

We’ve seen just 4 players leave the club and brought in only the 3

I’ll leave the guessing to you guys regarding my players goals and assists at this point😉

@RichD what ya think? 

[Rich]

Good start, undefeated in 17! I think Pulisic has had a good start to the season 🤓  

[ScottishFMM]

Based on these stats I’d have to agree! I’ve never really rated him very highly but he’s development incredibly.

[ScottishFMM]

Well that was fun, emotions were high and I’ve not been so ingrained in a save for quite a while!

So how did we do?

Loved it mate!

[Titjes]

Great attempt, well done 😀

[Rob]

Great score. Well done.

[Scratch]

Great job mate. Though I make it 283 points instead of 282 (Timo got 44 instead of 43). 🙂 Will add you to the leaderboard shortly.

I've started this myself now and it's not going as smoothly as your attempt. 😐 I'm not sure if it's because I pulled the whole team apart and lost all the existing dynamics (and that really does have a big effect), or whether it's because I'm using one of my super attacking FMM20 formations (and they no longer work in 21). Either way, it's certainly more of a challange than last year!

For a first save I found it pretty fun, I probably should’ve chose Abraham over pulisic but as is life! Havertz played for me as a DLF and worked tremendously well.

Yeah, I should have gone with Mount over Pulisic, but same... I have Havertz retrained as a T in between TMs (not that logical, but worked really well in FMM20), but I'm sitting 7th and about to get sacked... 🙁

I’ve had the same problem on my Celtic game, my ultra attacking one doesn’t work as well, so had to change a few things, still not 100%. Starting to think 1 at the back isn’t as effective!

I have done the same with Kai in my attempt too. He worked surprisingly well there.

Give it another go!!!

Yeah, I'm going to stick it out this season to see what happens, but I'm thinking I might need to ease off on the 1 at the back stuff. Might try a Celtic save (sorry @ScottishFMM !) to see whether it still works in cases where you're a lot stronger. Or maybe I will just go again with my DT tactic (one at the back but more in the midfield). 

I'm wondering if they've seen our FMM20 careers and gone "Right, we need to make it more realistic!". Part of me is sad that these tactics I created don't seem to work anymore, but on the whole I'd be happy if they've made it more realistic.
