    Sonny Carey is a complete cheat code in the game. Think work rate and determination must be overvalued by the match engine as he's massively overperforming

    what tactics is everybody using for Charlton? Both in and out of possession?

    Only played one friendly, played 4-2-3-1 and got battered 3-0. Hard to tell from one game but maybe I'm doing something wrong, be interested to see what others are doing.

    Sounds like real life!

    I also heard skins won’t work on this FM?

    I really struggle to play the game without a decent skin and stadium backgrounds. 

    Don’t think I’m gonna bother with it this year.

    I’m playing a variation of the 532 OOP and 4231 IP. I also got battered in friendlies but I’m top of the Champ after 16 games. My IP midfield isn’t two holders though, I have CC playing as a 6, a new signing as a box to box left sided 8 and then Carey drifting in the 10

    No they don’t. Miles mentioned some bigger updates being planned to add features, international management being one of them.

    I guess that could include skinning but will have to wait and see. Wouldn’t be surprised if that’s something for FM27.

    Played a little bit the other day and dont have no issue with the UI. Will take some getting used too for sure but quite like it tbh.

    I honestly hate managing charlton on FM I grow a serious dislike to the players when they start coming out to the press that I haven't kept my promise. Rather manage them 3 seasons in. 

    Started 1 with Crawley Town and currently sit 20th in league 2 with Dixon yet to score.

    Literally just copied Nathan Jones with a 532 out of possession and 4231 in possession with 2DM’s opposed to 2CM’s. High tempo direct football won 3 from opening 4 league leagues despite averaging less than 40% possession a game

    Charge people £40 for a game that isn’t finished.

    Unfortunately that’s what the gaming industry is like these days. In particular paradox interactive do this a lot. Release a game and then changing a tenner for each update as “dlc”.

    What really irks me is the not accurate stadium looks and the lazy player rendering. Giving Leaburn, L Jones and about 6 others in the game Mohican haircuts is bad design. Yes, I’m shallow!

    I never realised not being able to skin would make the game feel so naked aesthetically. Have had it for a week but not really had the interest to go past the first few emails.

    Without the custom backgrounds it just reminds me of doing work!
