Sudden drop of form

[Zlatan]

Well after I finally finished my Ireland challenge. I fancied continueing my succesful Aachen game. But ever since I started it up again I lost 4 times in a row and had 1 draw before that. As a result of this I lost my 10 point lead to Koln. This is highly unusual for my squad since before I continued we had lost and drew one match an for the rest all wins.

Anybody can explain this sudden drop of form?

you players lost confidence after they drew, making them play like ****, causing you to lose the next four matches

 

[PSVFOREVER]

yup, the one bad result leads to another. I had an amazing season with Köln, 25 points in 10 matches, right after i promoted. Then I lost, which resulted in 7 straight league defeats after that. I then got back into form, and it went better.

You'll probably get a bad form almost every season at least once. Try changing the tactic, this might give you a good result, which will put you back into form again

I read somewhere that if u quit the game when u are in a good form, the next time u open up your save game, the team will be going through a bad patch all the way..true or not i don't know..

If you draw or lose, win the next match to avoid losing form.

 

[Zlatan]

Yes but how? I'm not going to be that sad to use the save-game reload tactic for christ' sake.

 

[Fernandez]

Change your team around. Change those who are out of form, they usually conincide with the teams downfall.

Well guess what, after I swivled around my tactics I came on this 4-2-1-2-1 tactic seems to work. First I had a draw against a relegation battler so I was like this tactic doesn't work but then I won 2 matches after that which resulted in an equally points with Koln. Now this tactic is up for its biggest task score atleast 2 goals against Atletico Madrid to make it through to the next UEFA cup round.

usually i'll a lot of possesion, fully control the game, good defend record. but the problems is i can't score much goal. with > 10 shots of target every match, come out with opponent keeper motm all the time. my tactic is to win midfield, so usually my opponent will have < 5 shots on target. initially i've think that was my tactics problems, may be i fire to much long shot, so i decide give it a change to limit my player take too many long shot, by set the tactic to do more passing and through pass, but the result still the same.

talking about sudden drop of form. after i draw the game with norwich 1-1 with their keeper motm. then i have 4 continuous league game and a league cup game all draw (with 4 out of 5 matches is opponent keeper motm) :s the poor form seems nothing to do with CL. i win all CL matches so far by beat bayern 2-0 at home, beat milan home and away with 2-0 and 2-1, beat ajax 3-0 at home as well. thats weird isn't it

yeah... at one of my game I'm using arsenal... started the season with a lost in the community shield game to man utd... then lost my first league match vs chelsea... the next 6-7 games were all draws, we just couldn't score although we had more shots on goal...
it all coincided with Henry being injured for the first 4-5 weeks and I also sold vieira during the summer so I thought wtf, am I regretting of selling vieira?...
I was hovering around 5th/6th in january with a couple of games in hand against the leaders... but then everything starts to click and I kept on winning... and in the end I won the league... I thought I had already lost the title for the season... finished with 2 loses and 9 draws... the champ was decided on the last matchday

Sounds just like the real man utd..

As for not scoring goals, try playing two strikers i guess (Rather than 1 in centre, and 1 on either side out wide)...
