Haha yes it took me time to get used to. A lot of them make good runs into the box though.
In my current save I have van de Beek as CAM and he scores more than my striker.

This formation and tactics turned my season around. Was slumped in mid table struggling with my beasty team, now with 2 games to go Iâve secured top 4. Thanks for sharing.
Also just stuck Advanced Shooting on. Within 10 mins I scored an absolute banger with Robben, yes cut in and left foot screamer haha. You the man @Bl1nk

Dunno what they did with the latest patch but the game has become a lot less fun to play for me. Struggling to create, player movement is piss poor and AI scoring dodgy goals. Think itâs the update from 3 days ago.
My team chem is 92 yet they play like Emeryâs Arsenal. Fucking horrible and putting me off this game.

You tried that new formation?
I find like once every 5 games, it will go to a turtle speed, dead type of match, for no reason whatsoever
Yeah itâs average for me. Maybe my wingers are too weak. Getting exposed a lot and the CAMâs are âhidingâ too much because of their deep runs. Requiring my DMFâs to do all the build-up play.
Make one of your AMFâs have âcounter targetâ on. Made a huge difference for me

Thank you!
Iâve been feeling the same way.
The jostling change just underlines how shit the refs are - call my fouls but the AI has to break your legs to just get a FK.
And the smarter opponent AI is great but just underlines how shit teammate AI still is.

Yeah. Also anytime I try a skill move it just slows the attacking move down and I mostly lose the ball.

I dont bother with skill moves except for fake shot and stepovers. I find them unecessarily difficult tbh
Refs are extremely bad and infuriating, cursor switch is still an issue afaic, players just go full retard sometimes.

Yeah.
Counter target works a treat mate! The CAM and striker link up really well and Iâve put together a run of wins now.
Decided to turn off advanced shooting as I was much less clinical inside the box. Great for outside the box but inside I just couldnât get any low drives in the corner. Might try it again after my team improves more.

The refs kill me on this lol and the jostling is so annoying, particularly when your player initiates the jostle.
Kinda cool that you can get away with the odd shocker challenge, but doesnât make up for the 7 free kicks per game you give away due to pushing shoot and accidentally kicking their player lol

My Milan side. Currently top of the league in my second season. Finished 5th in first. Made some signings and sold a shitload of players. Squad was very bloated. Now trimmed to 24 players, including some amazing talent.
My defence is sensational. Donna, Romagnoli, Pavard and De Ligt. My scout recommended Ligt, couldnât believe he was available. Was unsettled at Juve. Signed him for 60m.
Other mentionable signings
Van de Beek: great, consistent and hard worker
Havertz: technical genius and physically strong
Everton: one of the best wingers in the game + captain material
Chiesa: top talent and great, scoring winger
Upamecano: backup CB
Rashford: another one that was unsettled, signed for 55m.
Werner: perfect striker for this formation. Bags of pace & very clinical
Ruben Neves: needed a CDM with good passing and shooting
Original Milan players still being used:
Romagnoli, Donna, Calhanoglu (95 free kick taker lol), Paqueta (great gifted player), Kessie, Caldara.
Team is finally used to the very attacking 3-2-4-1 formation.
Very fun ML career with Milan so far! @Gio

This is my United team 18 months after moving there. Itâs the 2029/30 season and all of the above are young regens. The AI are so good now, they all have epic players and itâs really tough. Each team has a couple of good players at the least.
They were a mess when I arrived but they had 2.3bn to spend 
Quickly fixed up this team sharpish and used the formation blink posted above but made some modifications. First season no trophies but finished 4th and made CL.
Still struggling a but this season but should make ro16 in CL and currently trying to chase City down who are unstoppable and unbeaten this season.
Just had a crazy game with City. They came into the game as comfortable league leaders and with no losses (in December now).
They totally dominated me all over the pitch, and racked up about 60 more passes than me.
I went 1 nil down and looked like no way back til Messi got an equaliser for me just after haf time.
The second half was end to end stuff, till in the 92nd minute a defence splitting pass from Moutinho put Messi through to finish a 1 on 1 wit the last kick of the game. No invincible season for the City kants.

Whatâs the settings for your LMF and RMF, do they contribute defensively ?
They do, Wing Back option. So they both need good stamina.
