Scotty Tunbridge Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Enjoy, I’ve been playing alpha for a week. It seems ok. The new training stuff is a bit of a waste of time IMO 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaggy Jenkins Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Won all my League cup, league games convincingly Come to the real stuff, beaten from Kilmarnock and Hibs (last min dodgy pen) and horsed out of the cup at home to St Mirren. Not sure the 4-2-3-1 geggenwhatever is the way forward. I seem to have the setting where Steve Brown ‘suggests players’ this actually means has actually gone ahead and signed 2 loan signings without my say so. They are decent so not complaining but it’s a bit strange (and not realistic lol) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to have the setting where Steve Brown ‘suggests players’ this actually means has actually gone ahead and signed 2 loan signings without my say so. They are decent so not complaining but it’s a bit strange (and not realistic lol) I've settled on a counter attacking 4-4-1-1. Beat Stranraer in the last minute then crushed Albion Rovers 3-0. Played Dundee United who scored direct from a cross, then a late header from a corner. Brought Swanson on, who beat three men down the wing and nutmegged the keeper (!!) before Steven Anderson scored in the 96th minute after some pinball in the box after a corner. Had me off my seat How you finding the strikers? Kane and McMillan spend most of the game offside, and Watt has had an odd game where he's brutal, a game where he's incredible, and s whole lot of meh in between. Scougall my top scorer with four goals in the Betfred so far. Just Edinburgh City to play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perthsaint1977 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Be interested to see how a new researcher interpreted saints since I did it for about last 4 or 5 year's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we're the only Scottish club without player faces, everyone else has new ones.Kilmarnock don’t have any either. Think it’s due to club photos not been taken in time or the clubs not being willing to share the photos with SI. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Made a start on this last night. Going to dabble in the Bundesliga to get a feel for it before doing my usual Vanarama North or South team save with zero loyalties and just trying to make my way to the top. I normally just let my assistant/other staff deal with all aspects of training cause I can't be arsed but I'm thinking I should really deal with it myself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scougall my top scorer with four goals in the Betfred so far. Just Edinburgh City to play. The 4-2-3-1 by default has a pressing forward by default which is maybe not Watts game have tried him in that formation in his natural position and the only difference is he seems to be less frustrated in games. Same for me he is awful and then brilliant had a couple of +8 from him. Wright was amazing against the lower league teams but seems to be honking against the premier teams. Only other formation I have tried is wide 4-4-2 as I wanted to get 2 up top with Kane as a target man, didn’t really work for me and saw me 2 down to Hibs in 20 mins. Changed back to the previous formation for fear of going full Celtic. Not really played McMillan as I cant seem to fit the poacher roll in. I’m retraining him as a shadow striker. Surprised with that from Scougall, I’m playing him in his preferred shadow striker roll and he has been pretty anonymous. I’m having the same issues of just where does he play in any formation that seems to benefit the majority of the rest of the teams strengths haha 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth mentioning the "preferred role" is simply the AI looking at their stats and working it out, they can play better in other roles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh that's good to know, messes with my OCD though as I like to see all green full dots on the tactics screen :-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
