I've enjoyed this game a lot since I started, but lately I'm doubting if it is worth to continue playing.

1. My best attacking players don't seem to be able to dribble past a defending player anymore. All my best attacking players have high dribbling and 3 skill balls for change of pace, running with the ball and slalom ace, yet they don't get past defenders/midfielders anymore or only seldom. While the players of opposing teams with less skills seem to run through my defense like a knife through butter.

Also in the Game Stats after a game is played I almost always have the highest passing rate against the opposing teams, yet when I watch the simulation my players don't seem to be able to give a pass in the foot of another player. I think this is strange.

2. I have all the excellent schools in the excellent rated countries and allmost in all the 4 star and 4,5 star countries. First of all more then 80% of generated youth players are 15y old, plus mostly only barely 80% progression, if I am lucky. This is getting really frustrating. Why do I pay so much for these schools if they don't or very, very seldomly generate good players? And if I get a good progression player it's mostly for some position I don't train, like GKs, wingers or RBs and LBs.

3. Updates are announced, yet we're all still waiting for them to be implemented. It's been allmost 2 seasons since the announcenment.

4. If I report a player for cheating (once, for selling players that are 33y old) no one acts upon it.

I'm really regretting that I have prolonged my pack manager!

5. If I put time and effort to train a player and sell him to a manager that mismanages his team, the player just disappears from the game and then I miss the formation rights. 09/12/2017 13:06

6. My 99% Financial Advisor doesn't seem to be working better than an 80% Financial Advisor. Though this is only a minor annoyance. 09/12/2017 13:14

1 - your team needs adjustments, you have to have a better balance in the scaling (because a 2-6-2 does not seem like a good idea even more with 2 MOs) and in the positioning (very offensive) teams of division 2 and 1 usually have strong defenses or have to have better balance I think your team gives a lot of space for the game I saw (yesterday), and about the attack, against good defenses usually suffer because it depends on good defense to also against attacks and play in the opponent error .
not short attack very centralized or by the sides I think it has to merge better because otherwise the team gets stung, I found its very centralized.

2 - school is a matter of luck I particulamente have few because of this because it is not rentable and only build some in the div 1 to make sure that it would not hurt.

3- Unfortunately the devs do not seem to care about the game.

4- depends on the case there are people who buy for the end of the championship as it helps a lot, I do this on the esp server.


a board have patience and watch games and adjust gradually.

About 1. that is just my problem with it. I know how to make a tactic that might work. But I don't like that kind of tactic.

The game forces you to play a certain kind of tactic, i.e. 7 or 8 players cropped in defense and 2 or 3 players in attack. "Park the bus" as they say.

I don't want to play that tactic. I hate it!

BTW, last two seasons I didn't seem to have that problem though, I played the same tactic and promoted and then last season I was able to finish 6t in 2nd division with it and my players seemed to perform as I expected

No1. I just watched one of your games

http://en.strikermanager.com/partido.php?id=27148110

You have a nice set of players with good forwards, but a choked setup which won't win you plenty match in div2, in div2 most teams park the bus, so it's not easy for them to get pass your opponent def(bus)..

You attack with all your forward+midfielders and not protecting your defense up field, exposing them to monster forwards.. ........


I will advice you to forget about stat of the game.. .


#advice: create space for your forwards while attacking and allow some of your mid protect your defense, and try watch few games from top managers comparing the play to yours.


2:well it's normal in the game, I have 4excellent schools they always producing quack players it sucks, but if you are not patient enough you can close some down

Have seen a lot of managers that demolished 7excellent school because of this stuff... ..it also reduce weeklies.
Players come @ random from them... ..though I was once lucky I received 99pg 14yr from Netherland school you can check my top sales.....its luck...


3:::dont really know Whatsup with the developers, guess they are working on the update

4: I also sell 33yr old😉😉...some managers buy them for survival and also for promotion

5: you don't need to worry about this, since you already collected money for sale of the players. ..

Some managers buy and ruin them, some leave managers leave the game and team gets reset alongside squad

6: exactly still can't figure out the difference between the two
Apart from Loan of cash

yes I understand I went through this (at the time I did the account I played football games on ps2 and it was highly offensive) but I had to adapt, as I focused on defense I adapted better on this issue, attack until today I suffer with some things but I go adjusting.
unfortunately the game asks for the balance, I used to advance the team and only took a thrashing but follow the tips and I was understanding what the game asks and I was adapting.
another thing is not always a backward defense will be guarantee that to be safe has to have the exit of ball.
there are teams with advanced defenses too, but you have to adapt to not deliver hand to hand for free but I think it's risky.
