    Gianluca, I just turned off the pass and movement assistance, holy crap the game became even better!!! It took me 2 games to get use to it but the 3 one was such a pleasure, I was 1-0 down with only 30 minutes to play but came back and scored 3 beautiful goals! Final score Sagan Tosu 1-3 Gamba Osaka ^^ that made my day! This game is by far the best football game on the IOS, can't wait to see the future updates

    Hm
    Defending = tackling and technique = ball control , right ?
    I saw somewhere that at the end of the season ,skills of the players are updated depending on the rating , is this really so ? Only for the team you're managing ?

    Also the teams logos are fictional and if I am correct the jerseys do not fully reflect real ones (without sponsors name etc) , this is because the issue with license ? If it is so , you can add a feature to upload real ones from the Internet and change it , like its on FTS .

    What does the move and pas assistance actually do?

    By the way, I also find the AI a bit too quick with defending. It's almost impossible to dribble past defenders. They react way to quick when changing direction. I play on easy.

    I think that is just a matter of practice. This is a tough game! On medium, with assists off, I can now dribble past many defenders; quick changes in pace and direction, sudden stops etc. will put them on the floor often. Keepers can be dribbled too

    Movement assistance seems to restrict dribbling and pass receiving to try to help you retain the ball, but you only have real freedom without it. Pass assist passes to feet, turn it off and you have manual control over passing direction, including into space, depending on your players' attributes

    That's why we need a new button which will account for a "smooth" short air pass and players switching , I think this features are essential ...

    Like you mentioned , it's impossible to dribble through defenders with low skilled players , a short air pass through defenders could be an excellent weapon to wreck the defense , you pass the ball over the defender and your attacker rushing from behind could get the ball and run one on one with GK , just like FC Barcelona plays...on FTS it was really helpful in organizations of attacks ...

    Gianluca , the problem of using B for SHORT air pass is you cannot actually feel the border between "tap" and "hold" , when I try to "hold" it always sends the ball too far and it is not on a desired height , for example I cannot perform so called "parachute" , that's when you kick the ball over the GK being one on one with them , hope you will find a solution to it ..

    Yes, please add the ability to easily put club logos and maybe even kits in the game via iTunes like FMH15 or a file transfer app. You know, if it doesn't require too much reorganizing.

    Hey there:

    I've been playing this game since yesterday, and I have to say: it's the best iOS football game. Anyway, there is a problem with online matches: I never see opponents. Is that only me? I'd aprecciate any help.

    I forgot tell you another bug fixed in the next version:
    - at the end of the season in v.1.0.0 sometimes there is a bug that prevent to accept a new job offer and change team. The new version fixes this.

    Best football game but you only gave it 4 stars? ^^ I agree, but I don't think he would fit EA and there horrific Free to Play system

    Bought. :)

    Looking forward to the future update with controller support.

    Also, just a heads up, you need to fix the icon. It looks like it's using iOS 6 dimensions because the four corners are chopped meaning the white border is missing at the corners.

    I have saved plenty of goal and dribble highlights and put them up here if anyone wants to see some of the dribble/shot/through-pass possibilities:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNujC7f-K6w

    Includes some nice dribbles and chipped through-balls, a Panenka penalty and loads of epic dribbles from Cambridge United players at 1 1/2 stars :)

    The more I play this, the better the dribbling gets. You have to show the defender enough of the ball to make him commit, then successfully take it away from him.

    Probably my favourite goal is at 5:00 (this is no special move, just creative use of the analog control and dash).

    Sorry about the crap video quality, all I can do

    Hmm. I'm on iOS 8.1.3 and when I load the game it sits on the white screen with the Fox logo. I've deleted and reinstalled, no change.

    Any ideas?
