Arsenal FC

I came 6th in my first season with the gunners, Ade scored 36 goals despite having a three mth layoff due to injury, i also won the FA Cup and CL. Now I am in my second season and I cant win a thing I have like one win in the league and one in the CC. Even when I score the opponents stars find away to break through my defense while my players shots are saved, im thinking I will be sacked soon. I finally got back Vela from injuries and he and Rosicky put me up two against Pool, but Torres came back and scored a double alongside another player despite my marking.

I usually play the 4-1-4-1 formation but have now resorted to 4-4-2 any advice?

iv just gone into my second season and cant seem to win any games! Doing my nut in! I came third in my first season, and won the champs league, but cant seem to even buy a win at moment.

Ambrosini from milan is a good DM buy at 3m. Henri Saviet can be accquired on a youth contract as soon as a game is started.

I tried 442 attacking for the first season, and did ok getting 3rd. Now i am playing 532 attacking with some minor changes and scoring loads of goals but that is at the sacrifice of an attacking player though.

The !RedDevil! : aguero? maybe in fm 08, not in fm 09 though, he is horrendous in 09

i agree he's not worth the money but he is still gr8

he fukd up WAY too many chances for me by shooting from impossible angles so i set his long shots to "rarely" and his dribbling to "often" and he does brilliantly. he is gr8 at running with the ball and creating chances. his finishing is a bit sketchy though...

also good CDM are Palombo, Heitinga, Veloso, Inler, Diarra, De Rossi, Pirlo and Ramires.

finally, why is it so impossible to sign lloris?? i settled for Adler but it still annoyed me

Sorry if this is a bit late, but I am currently using a tactic called "Brazil 1970's" can't remember where I downloaded it from, think it was www.fm-base.co.uk
This is my current team and results so far.

Following this screenshot, I beat Rapid Vienna 6-0 at home.
If you do use this, i would definitely buy Veloso or similar..

I can upload on here if you want, if someone will tell me how to do it.

wierd tactic.... but if you got those results then.... i can upload it i guess, i'll pm u my email adress

i dont think that agguero is horrendous.if u use him as free role behind 2 strikers... he is great ....i took him 75 m in chelsea

Quick update....
I may have to make a few tweaks to this formation... I just got hammered 7-0 by chelsea, with a hat-trick from Michael Essien (!!!!) :con
I was 5-0 down at half-time with the standard tactics, i gave them a little tweak and only conceded 2 goals in the second-half..

Very good tactic against lower skilled opposition, just be wary against equal/better teams..

this is my arsenal tactics

gk - almunia
dbl - clichy
dc - gallas
dc - toure
dbr - sagna
aml - van persie/nasri
mc - lucho gonzalez
mc - fabregas
amr - beckham
st - arshavin
st - adebayor

what are the tweaks?!?!

Just tweaks to the team instructions, set the mentality a bit less attacking and slow the tempo down. then set to "counter attack"
Think i may need to try a second tactic against better clubs though.

aguero 29 goals in 33 match witch atletico he is a best player my friends

Almunias not a bad keeper, so if you dont have alot of money left, just leave him for the moment

I was asked 30 mill for adler, lloris, mandanda and ochoa, so forget them, Asenjo is a good pick and also Ustari who I got for 2.2 has been impressive.

Veloso or Toulalan for DMC, shouldnt be more then 15 mill

Sakho is a gun, paid 15 mill for him but its worth it in the end, Jerome Bassong is a quality full back who can play on left or right, gothim for 7.25 mill and came 2nd in signing of the season.

Note- also wanted to ask bout Clichy, how much is he worth in your file?? coz his worth 25 million in mine and im amazed
