I only play online (divisions or against my mates), the 2020 is without a doubt the worst edition i’ve ever played, the game just goes crazy when we’re playing.
it’s really a shame as stated before, the game is about football, the basis for this kind of games has been laid out a long time ago, and this looks like some kind of a fucking beta version.
Completed my second season as AS Monaco manager. Won the league, 6 pts clear of PSG. Did the double over them. They had their revenge by beating me 3-0 in the cup final, but I won it the year before so didn’t really care. League was always the #1 priority and I did it!
Champions League campaign was a disappointment, topped a group with Man City and Real Madrid only to be knocked out by Napoli in the first knockout round ffs.
Happy with my second season, but I wanted to change my formation and start playing with two strikers. Which meant I needed to sign a forward or two. That’s exactly what I did! I sent my scouts to look for top tier talent, turns out Gabriel Jesus was unsettled at Man City and I picked him up for €50,000,000, fucking bargain for an 89 player. I also secured a 34-year old Luis Saurez on a season loan, also 89. So my team now looks like this:
It’s a very direct 4-4-2 (or 4-2-2-2), my wingers are still a crucial part just no longer inside forwards, they have some defending to do now! A deeper role for Savic, which seems to suit him better, less running around. Tactic settings:
Made a sensational start to the season, scoring lots of goals and barely conceding. Gabriel Jesus is a monster, scores every game and already has his first hattrick. If he ever becomes available in your save, don’t hesitate!
Changed to a 433 to try and combat this AI. I usually hate playing 4 atb as the two CB’s get isolated.
However, after the bad start I mentioned above, I won my next two games both 2-1 against Everton and Athletico Madrid. Both tight games with even stats, and both times they started defensive.
Trouble is as I’ve never played fullbacks on this save, I’ve not got any so have had to stick Saka at LB and a regen Young at RB. When they are tired I have to put midfielders there for now lol, till the Jan window.
I use Hug the touchline. Rest of Instructions on the right.
Nice looking formation! Guendouzi has amazing stats on my save, I’m looking at signing him first chance I get. Strange Haaland is only 83 btw. He’s 88 on my save, second season. Maybe a later data update or something.
