once again, playing everton, winning 1-0, then 92 mins, they have a corner and equalise, game finished 1-1

Do we need a progress report? I recommend starting a blog. If you aren't actually asking questions then what do you want us to do?

Play a 4-5-1 in the final third, with 2 defensive midfielders sitting right in front of the defenders. Turn on counter attack.

Why don't you join one of the teams that keep scoring late goals against you. Its obvious that its nothing to do with your tactics and its just a conspiracy against Liverpool. At least if you manage one of the other teams you will be the one scoring the late goals!

muhahahah! A few days ago my friend joined my network game and he is absolutely terrible and still manager to beat utd 3-0, I beat him 2-0 thought, if it makes a difference he was tottenham!

Well there you go, theres a clean sheet there.

Though if your mate is so terrible and kept a clean sheet, maybe you should ask him for tactical advice

People are telling me to stop complaining but I really need to vent, I just dominated Arsenal at the emirates, thier keeper saved things like you won't believe, then, 91 minutes carragher scores an own goal and they win 1-0! WTF WTF?!?!?!

I've had it with how unrealistic this game is.

I was playing with Arsenal and was at home to Spurs who were bottom of the league. I was 4-2 up in injury time but this game wasn't having that. Two injury time goals and I have drawn 4-4.

So unrealistic :mad:

I bet you that if they played this game 10 times over the outcome wouldn't be the same. But if I played it on fm, 10 times over the out come would be similar.

This thread reads better than the bbc sports site with constant updates of whats going down

Out of interest what patch version are you running to allow yourself to concede these late goals?

winning 3-0 away at chelsea, on 86 mins, by 89 mins it's 3-2, why can't I just keep a clean sheet? Is that really so much to ask?

Shamikebab · 30 Oct 2008 at 20:05

Why can't you stop whining? Is that really too much to ask? I dont mean to be rude but this has gone quite far beyond a give me tips thread

Meh. The only way i would know whether that was the case or not would be reloading whenever I lose (i.e if I was to cheat).

btw, real life doesn't have a reset button. However, if it did, if your tactics were unsuitable for the opposition you are playing and the conditions, you would continue to get a similar negative result.

If I were Arsene Wenger, I would be fuming at how unfair real life's match engine is.

earlier in the thread, i told about how I played a game 10 times over and every time without fail, they scored in the 1st 10 mins. I don't think unless your tactics were AWFUL, which mine weren't, that how this is possible
