The mighty Wolves returned to winning ways this time overpowering Darlington. Out of favour Victor Moses was dropped to the bench with Vazquez stepping up to take his place with a scintillating performance and an assist. The manager called for calm and has already begun preparations for facing Fulham. The mighty Wolves now move into the top half on 17 points however just one point now separates positions 9-17. Their superior goal difference ensures they remain top of the pack.

I tried playing it the Wolves way today ie having a crap player in the line up, it didnt work out.
FixedYou miss the key to playing it the mighty Wolves way. The shite match engine
Another nice win
Forgot to change tactics + 2 key players suspended + playing a 70 rated defender in a back 3 = 5-2 win.
The match engine is shite for everyone but me it seems...
Don't worry it will get you eventually, but if your lucky the next update will fix the bullshit
The way they're going I think it'll break the whole game. I'm in many leagues and do decently in all of them. People used to FM except the better teams to win all the time but it doesn't work that way. Everything counts, morale, positioning, formation, instructions etc. You can continue to cry about it or start tweaking and see if you can improve.
Its a clusterfeck of a match engine
Another draw, but it's okay I guess since I'm drawing to better sides.
I did some research and found out they use the following formula.
Home Team: =IF(A1="Friendly",RANDBETWEEN(0,15),RANDBETWEEN(0,6))
Away Team: =IF(A1="Friendly",RANDBETWEEN(0,15),RANDBETWEEN(0,6))
Shite match engine, opponent's GK MOTM yet again

If i understood that, it would probably explain a bit
3rd in the table
Unbeaten in all competitions (7 games) since taking over, likely to change tomorrow as I face City in the cup. Climbing Div 2 table though, was in a woeful state when I took over.
Nice 2-0 win vs Stoke. Big cup game coming up vs resurgent Man United where my cup run will end. Will be sad to be out of both cups so soon after good runs last season. At least I am not fighting relegation in league this season till now.
Nice to see 2 of my young future Spanish stars pick up the winners medals at the u19 euros, cellabos and Vallejo.
Pure shit is what it is, did ya take a look at the form chart I'm the only one keeping you off the bottom spot
Keyword being RAND = Random.
pfft if only you knew how to win like our Jose. I am even worse. As per Jose, I don't even know why I buy players. Travesty I am top of the league, absolute travesty I say.
Don't blame the player blame the game, I have sent mY best possible team out most games and got nothing from it.
You need to change it up then. Football is not about sending the best players out
You should try dropping a couple of players with shit match ratings to see if that makes a difference.
Yea what business do you have signing that young urgayian who happens to be going to athletico once he is 18 seriously cop on like
I would have to buy a new keeper as he is the serial under performer.You need to change it up then. Football is not about sending the best players out

Drop him and play your 2nd choice. Can't exactly get any worse so might be worth trying.
I hadn't. feck sakes. Time for some shake up.
Worst is I don't know what to change. 3-5-2 is a stupid formation but it works in the game. Pretty much everyone that has won the league has won it playing that style other than Chelsea I think. My squad is designed around CMs. Changing to a back 4 means 2 of my best players would need to play at full back, not at all ideal.
Sometimes, a player just won't work in a position whatever his rating. Don't ask why. So a rejig of players helps, and maybe the formation as well.
I didn't like that formation but it helped me to promote from Div2 previously but now most use the same formation. So it was counterproductive with inferior players. Now I play 4 at back and I plan to stick with it.
That's the thing though, pretty much everyone is using the same formation but the table doesn't reflect the quality of the teams.
Matt Targett with +2.
By my calculations tomorrow I'll be cursing SW for not giving Bentaleb the raise he deserves (i.e. more than a + 1)
Seeing as the next game is city I'm not dropping Cech I'll make him captain and see if that Improves his performances any bit.
It doesn't because not all players are suited to that formation. I have 4-4-2 diamond and it worked well for me in Div2 with players I had. Changed players didn't work out so well so changed formation. Moses didn't work out well in the formation so dropped him and I won. You have to keep tweaking all the time as if you leave something that doesn't work on then it will never work.
If I can beat City, you'll be fine.
That's fair but teams with 90 or more average rating wouldn't have much influence on each other just based on rating. Then all the other factors such as form, and randomness (however that is) comes into picture.
