Thanks for the opinions guys. I have a similar problem, Parag :)
I’m thinking about not displaying the flags when you enter the page and add a checkbox like the “colorize” one saying something like “show flags” or “show nationalities”, whatever…when checked the flags would show up, when unchecked they’d be hidden.
How does that sound?
its good to watch, but then it has caused me one problem.
i actually maintain a spreadsheet and maintain an instance of my players skills whenever there is any change. So, when ever there is any change in the players skills level or any players are being transacted, i update my spreadsheet. players names were the first columns but now, with this flag in place, the country name is concatenated to the player names (although, with a space in between). earlier it was a simple copy paste thing, whereas now i need to manually add a tab in between and load to excel using its data loader, and finally delete the first column. i know i am complaining about not having my luxury anymore, but then, it has given me the problem…
if we could have a tab in between the flags and the player names, my problem would be solved. ( i guess a lot of other guys might have the same problem). i could exaggerate the problem a lil bit more, if that would help u add that small tab in between :) )
First thought , “what the hell”, but now i actually quite like it :)
I played 2 matches against Milan with the same team and tactics. One for the league and one for the cup. Both were home. I guess Milan also used the same tactics because its manager didn’t log in in the mean while. It’s kind of strange I win the league match with 5-0 and loose the cup one with 3-4. In the second one my attacker got a red card in the 46 min with a 2-1 score for me.

Very nice, but please don’t tell Platini that I have only 4 French players in my team =)
Try 9-0-1 or 6-3-1 with defending midfielders with center play and often long pass =)
You can easily get relegated if you experiment too much in Brazil Seria A. Thats not a luxury you have.On the other hand its kinda boring playing with same way all the time, most teams playing with same kinda formations. Its a risk reward thing but personally i gave up. Good luck to you.
Why did Cruseiro’s attacker intercept the goal kick and scored from 2 meters ? Is it legal ? =)
Personally, I believe to have 1-2 formations with great balance when I used to have a strong team due to quality loans. Before the start of last season I sold me best players and pretty much bought a whole new team of young potentials aged 19-22. The approach has been great, so far my starting 10 outfielders average an improvement of 32 pts :). So the team is still improving and not yet able to compete for top placements. So, against teams I know I will have a hard time (expected to lose), I do experiment, because the result won’t matter much. This experiments are indeed for “emergency” tactics I will need in the future when my team has reached “full potential” (in parenthesis because there’s always space for improvement) and is fighting for titles :).
In the case above I am commenting the result of my last experiment, which i was a bit shocked, because even though I expected a loss, I also expected much more resistance from my tactic.
Yeah It can be helpful when we have national teams… How is that going Gabriel? something new?
That is the fun of the thing, if you make too much experiments you can suffer some bad results but you learn something… It is like that in real life, we just need to find a balance.

PS: I used wings in the CL last season and it worked fine, some other teams are having good results too.
why u want to play against your own team? There is an option called friendly. If u arrange it good enough by msg a manager and agree on playing your main squad for like 2 matches u can try out things :P thats what i do normally in the beginning of the season ;)
I havent seen a team succeeding with a unique formation, my experiments only cost me points, for example i stopped trying wingers last season after some disappointed results. I used both wing and mixed play style.
How about a feature that allows you to play your clone team? :P For example: Your 1st team against your 1st team. Then you can play around with tactics without worrying about loosing points or getting fired. And since the team quality would be exactly the same it would be obvious which tactic works better.
first i liked it, but for me it’s too turbulent with all the colors. But let’s keep it: I would flag the nationalities on a secondary tab like “contracts”.
On the skills page i just would love to see the flag (on the right hand side) for players who are current players for a national team. Therefore we need national teams ;)
I tried playing a 5-3-2 (131-111-11) vs two of the best teams in French league.
The whole idea was to park the bus in front of my goal and hit on the counter, and guess what…I got thumped 0-6 and 1-5.
What is worse is that the both games, on both sides, was focused on central play. Now my team is rather average but it’s still a good team with good overall players in all sectors of the field. What matters is that the sides are not that disleveled
Anyway, the logic of my approach is supposed to guarantee a strong defense and make the life hard for the opposition. I gave up part of my offense and midfield so that my zone would be covered. I could still very much lose the game, but not get humiliated like that.
Second, the very approach of the opposition with central play going head on against my “wall” is usually a futile approach. Looking at the replay, they had a field day like I had five sticks they could easily go around rather than 5 organic beings with limbs in full motion. And let’s not forget two midfielder tracking back too.
Breaking a “park the bus” defense would require a good use of wing play, which neither opposition did. I do realize I’m relying too much on RL observations but some logic has to follow even in this game, me thinks.
Of course I go back to my offensive style of play, that’s what I do better, but I still think nowdays football should be smth more than an Eredivise reflection ;-)
Too much color!!!
I do not like very much, too much patriotic as well, and like i said (just personal) “un patriota, un idiota”.
Maybe can be implement in a different way, but i´m careless, only thing i cant wait it is a real world cup, and i´m getting sick of waiting, the game it is getting boring with out it. Or the other option,,,,,, manager mobility, it is suck for me to build a good team and get stock with it…….not real ….
Wow I thought I had more than just 4 foreigners ! I like the flags idea, it is so simple and cool !

olá to com uma curiosidade, eu estava disputando a copa do brasil e fui desclassificado mas ate ai td bem, mas o que me deixou meio confuso foi o placar, no primeiro jogo ganhei de 2X0 na casa do adversario e no 2 jogo eu peguei e perdi por 4X2, se fosse seguir as regras verdadeiras da copa do brasil o gol fora de casa vale mais ou seja, os dois gols que eu marquei fora de casa nao seria o critério de desempate afinal, na soma dos dois jogos nao foi de 4 gols para cada time? queria saber qual é o critério para eu nao ter passado e ele sim, foi pq ele marcou mais na minha casa? nao entendi mesmo.
agradeço pela atençao,
aguardo respostas.
