So I started a career unemployed. I accepted a job as Spartak Moscva second team. Board wanted league survival and media predicting relegation. Have had a fantastic season. Played 4-1-2-3 most of season. Was setting new club records. Went 13 games unbeaten. 7 wins on the bounce. Got to 8 games remaining. Wallop. Team can't score, can't defend, can't pass. So I keep trying to pick up the morale. Team meetings, not being to harsh away from home. Strikers that were put through a start of season were banging them in now just miss. I mean last game I hit the bar 4 times. This happens to me so much. Get in amazing position and then a collapse comes that I can't halt. I was top and now have lost 6 games on the trot and am in 6th. Really makes me feel cheated. Just wouldn't happen in real life. Anyway point is I need some tips. Is it a major tactic overhaul I need when that happens? Or minor tweaks? Drop players? Just lost with it. Feel gutted that the club was on for an unbelievable achievement and have just thrown it away. I feel I have no chance to make a difference. Any tips would be great.

FM is so frustrating for this, does it to me all the time. It's hard to know how to pull through it, morale is obviously a key factor in this but another thing that may help is dropping a couple of your key players as a warning shot as such and see if they respond well when they are put back in the side, this can backfire though. Other than that try and avoid tweaking tactics massively as this will be unfamiliar for your side and make things worse.

Thanks for replies. Yes your right I used this on my unbeaten stretch. In my second season I again went unbeaten for 15 matches. Then lost two on the bounce. Switched to a 4-2-3-1 and picked up a win. I decided small tactically changes make a difference. Instead of 8 instructions cut down to 3-4. Simplify things. Drop a couple of players with lower last 5 game averages. To
Be fair I'm well over achieving anyways, predicted bottom and second season the avoid relegation. I left spartak second season in fifth. Accepted a job in Scotland. Cowdenbeath. Taking over with them first in the league. 1 point above airdrie and guess who my first game is against! Doing well on this career. Just need to get some cup wins and the odd league championship. Great game.
