Try five in the back with a sweeper (preferably somebody with the "Covering" special and great stamina/response). You can always use strategy buttons for CB Overlap or a formation change to get back to a more attacking stance. Against certain players, the sweeper can be enormously frustrating...

Not without tracking them down in the game code.

I will in the case of something egregious, like the incessant "god" dribbles of '08 or insane, impossible errors. I once had a CPU through pass from 35 yards out get past two banks of my players, cutting through five packed tightly outside the six yard box, the deepest of which moved to...

Yep, passing, off-the-ball movement, and organization. Capping a player with teamwork in the high 80s to 90s can make an enormous difference.

I like realism and want more depth in ML more than anything. I guess I'm mostly looking for something of a FM-PES hybrid. The three things I'd like to see haven't been mentioned are: Injuries - We need more of them (but don't go overboard, as with fouls in WE9), especially little niggling ones...

The teamwork stat DOES make a difference. At the "change player" screen in formation settings, you can hit "Y" or triangle to show teamwork, and as you scroll through players, a number will pop up for each player on the field. The numbers tell you what teamwork stat the rest of the players will...

Deals have always been able to be tied up in the first week after the mid season window. All that's happening is that teams are making offers on that last day, versus entering into negotiations earlier. You won't be able to see deals initiated on the last day until they're done. The summer...

Where's the fun in always buying and playing with the same guys? Bos is so godly, I've started getting bored of playing with him. I still buy him, though, just so the CPU can't get him! :^| Besides, every player is different and can bring his own qualities to a team. Makes you mix up your...

I think Mentality and condition have a similar effect. Players with high stats in both seem to have less dramatic curve drops once past their peak.

Yeah, so frustrating. I just played two matches, and had, between the two: A: 1 minute shown, but ~5 minutes of stoppage given to the AI playing possession primarily in their own half and central third of the pitch, trying to break me down at the end of the 1st. B: Full time blown after the 1...

You'd have to find where they are stored in the game code to edit them, which means you might need a hex editor (and to know how to use it!), depending on how/where they're stored.

Fixed. The build up play must've been REALLY patient.

Probably spending countles hours with friends creating ourselves in WE9 (and creating new friends whenever we'd make them), building almost a complete starting eleven out of us, and taking that team into ML. Aside from that, this, which I just completed tonight (the D1, that is): From a...

Did you get another GK? Maybe the game limits your activity until you get another one.

More divisions to work through in ML would be great, too. Start out playing non-league football, then work up through any number of divisions to the top. Realistically, though, at least a D3? Also, the other leagues in need lower divisions, if only for the sake of realism. SM Caen in '08...

Man, a youth and/or reserve team (with optionally playable matches!) would be amazing. Hopefully, they'd let you sign more than 32 players, too.

I've done it once. If I can find somewhere to upload the replay, I'll post it.

Removing specials in Edit (which you can add back at any time, which is kinda good, 'cause you can update players based on real life and/or in-game performance, but kinda dumb, 'cause, well, you could give anybody any amount of specials whenever you need 'em) usually reduces salary AND increases...

That's an interesting way to go about things. 8^|

Oh I know. Just giving a little stick. ;)
