Unofficial - How are you doing in Master League?

Hell yeah my favorite thread, about my favorite PES game-mode :

So anyway, bought PES today (only 2 copies left in the entire store, damn I was lucky) and I'm about to start a Master League with the ML Default Team (I like challanges:)).

Just went out of the January transfer month, this is how my team looks like after selling more than half of my team, and buying young 'cheapies'
:rolleyes:










Anyway, I am in Top-Player, and I find it not that hard so far. D2 teams' defence is absolutely ridiculous, my boy Uchida fuxxes everyone up :w00t
Speaking on defence, I really need to improve mine, my wins have been like 4-3, 3-2, 5-3, 4-2, etc; I do win, but hardly, I think I am yet to win a game without conceding a goal. My defenders are pretty bad to be honest :no:. Let's see what next Season's youth investment gives me.


On a second note, even though D2 teams are not that hard to beat, when I faces Arsenal in the first Cup knockouts game, I got schooled 5-1.. there is a HUGE difference in D2 teams to Premier League teams, Arsenal was absolutely powerful and devastating, had I think 71% ball posession, with 21 shots, while I had only 3.. And my goal was absolutely lucky and pathetic, not even worth explaining:lol:

Man, I am scared to play against teams like Barça, Milan, Real, etc; if I even get in the Premier League top 4 to get a spot in Champions League.. I think I'll be struggling for maintenance on the league for a few seasons, before my team gets strong enough.




So enough talking about me, how are you doing?






- What team are you managing?
- What league are you in?
- What formation are you using?
- What players do you currently have in your team?
- What players do you wish to buy?
- What players would you recommend?


Etc,etc,.

Last place on professional after half season (standard pes lineup D2 league .. ooh they suck!). Won 2 home games. Thinking to drop to regular in ML. Who is doing better?

For the first time in years I felt out of depth on top player, so I'm playing on the next level down, which is still a challenge.

I'M getting better at defending, so my team's 16th place showing will probably improve as the season goes along. Right now, though, they're fxking terrible.

Thank heavens Ettori can play a little, or I'd be hosed. Couldn't get any major signing done either. Which brings me to a complaint: why can't you see the state of your finances at every step? I have no idea whether or not I'll have the money to afford a signing.

go to expected earnings income

Yes, but that doesn't seem to update. Last year, you were essentially earning money every home game, depending on how well-attended your games were. It doesn't seem to track money the same way this year, unless I'm missing something.

The first season was a pain and I had to play it at Professional to be able to score enough points to go up to D1. The trick for me was buying some half-decent midfielders and shooting from outside the box in 5 minute matches, pretty much ensuring a win any time I scored the first goal.

I'm almost through my second season now.
I'm currently 5th but I still have a chance of getting into the UEFA Cup if luck is on my side. I play on the Spanish League and it's just ridiculous how Barcelona and Real Madrid are playing their own 2-team league 20-30 points above everyone else.
I don't know if these are good signings but my current lineup is this:
GK - Rustu (reborn)
CB - Chigrat (reborn, insane stats. Check ML players thread)
CB - Palmieri
RB - Nogtura
LB - Mangala (he's relatively cheap and can play in any defensive position)
DMF - Heycory
CMF - Defour
CMF - O'Hara
RMF - Shimizu
SS - Ravet
CF - Metelger


I agree the finances are confusing. I still don't get when I get paid sponsor money, but oh well. As long as I don't go bankrupt.
By the way, you earn a *lot* more money from home games when you get to D1.

That is an awesome result! You must be an expert in pes if you learned to play defense well so quickly. What formation and strategy do you use? Do you use RT+X when defending. What are the other settings: games speed, passing assistance level. How do you find open space for a shot in general? I do a lot of passing, but ai defense is quick to block almost any shot. Thanks.

Edit: I noticed in the other thread that you have 23 million. I also think most of your players not from the starting pes team. so how did you get to 23mil in 1 season and all these decent players?

I'm not an expert at all, I just play cheaply when I face the AI. Setting the match time to 5 minutes is a must for me or else I'm pretty much conceding a goal at the very least. Also keep in mind I play in the Spanish League where a lot of teams are really not that good.

For defense I wait for the attackers "manually" instead of using RT+X. A good tactic is waiting out until you have a second defender to take the ball if the first one misses. This doesn't work very well in Top Player or against really good teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid and some others that have unstoppable players.

As far as attacking goes, I don't think I have any real good advice. I just pass the ball quickly and take the shot when I see the space. If the defense looks too tight I either go back to my defenders and start over or I try a long pass to my RMF (Shimizu -he's awesome) and try a cross. Crosses are another good way of getting goals against average defenders as they can be beat in jump/header even with a default player like Ordaz.
Everything becomes a lot easier once you get new players with ratings of 80 or so, which you should do quickly.

About my budget and players: I did not get 23million in one season, that screenshot was taken at the middle of my second season, where I get over a million per home match. I also got new sponsors worth a bit less than 10m (total) at the end of the first season. Most of my team is also pretty cheap. I think the most expensive player is Defour with a market value of ~1.8m US$.

I'm currently in the 2nd season with Juventus. Settings: Top Player/10mins. I initially played a Champions League edition so i can gather the 100pts required to unlock real players on master league.

First season was a pain in the ass, couldn't quite handle all the changes, finished on the 8th place, eliminated from Champions League and lost in Europa League quarter finals. It's been very hard. Now in the 2nd season, currently in November, I bought some quality players. I mostly buy players with a great dribble/top speed, that's my game. So I bought Miccoli and Gabriel Agbonlahor, both fast moving strikers. Through balls using teammate control is a HUGE win. This 2nd season is a lot easier, I'm currently 2nd in Italian League 1 defeat/1draw and 8 wins. Doing well in Europa League too.

Btw guys I also had huge defensive issues the previous season. It's really simple once you get the hang of it... I only conceded 9 goals so far in 10 league games, which is a pretty good result considering the difficulty. This helps a lot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLu9SgjrJgM

I'm currently playing with the default, ML team in D2. And boy do they suck!! I won my 1st match 3-1 then lost the next 4 only scoring 1 goal.

I'm playing on Professional, which is a step down from every other PeS where I played Top Player, and I'm finding it hard, which is a good thing really.

I'm sitting about 14th in the table only won 3 games and lost...a lot as I'm poor at defending but I'm getting better.

Question: how long does it take before a player that has already joined my team to be useable? I signed Utaka during which I played a few games now and yet he still isn't on my squad list.

Where does chigrat play so i can delete him?

Currently number 11 in Premier League in mid december. 2 more matches and i will get 3 new players. Bendtner on a loan transfer, and some polish guy whose name i can not spell also on loan, and R. Jenssen on permanent transfer - norwegian midfielder with great stats.
Finally i seem to learn how to defend on top player playing as underdog team Fc Copenhagen. I've managed to draw 2-2 against Man U and lose narrow 1-0 against City. Chelsea i still have to learn to close down since they beat me 2-0.
ML is so addictive this year!

Depends on when you sign them. If you do it during the transfer window then they either join right away or at the end of it; and if you sign them at any other time they will join when the next transfer window opens.
You can also check exactly when they'll join by going to Negotiations->Negotiations in progress and highlighting the desired player.

He plays for WE United.
