sorry, dont know, but the thread title reminded me of my favourite:

'a player with a high corner-taking ability would be a good choice to take corners.'

you dont say.

yes, that one is kind of stupid, but for example is one that tells you how to play when it rains or not, or what attributes a good winger has and many other...

yes, they are good, that one just makes me laugh. the one about not sending your scouts on conflicting assignments (next oppo/region) coz of the travelling is a good one too.

Thanks mate i found them , they are in the data directory and yes you need to extract them with fmf unpacker. This are a few of the hints:
- Strikers with low composure are more prone to buckling under the pressure and missing one-on-one opportunities to score.
- Defenders with low concentration are more prone to making costly mistakes in defence.
- Determination can be a key attribute. Players with low determination usually react badly to going a goal down
- Allowing your players to close down often will naturally put the opposition players under duress, but be aware that good players will find ways to avoid pressure and expose your team
- If you like to play possession football and dictate the tempo setting your goalkeeper's distribution to short and to a near player may help you succeed
- Passing style and tempo are linked. A short passing game works best with a slower tempo, whilst a direct, counter attacking style needs to be swift and quick
- Constantly changing your tactic and making dramatic alterations to the style of play will not help your players settle or find their rhythm and is likely to have an adverse affect on the team's performances
-Players with low stamina may tire and struggle to play at their best, particularly in poor weather conditions or high tempo games
- Be aware of how the weather can effect your team's performances. Bad conditions are more likely to penalise those who play a short passing game, try adopting a more direct style at times like this
- The more scouting knowledge your club has, the more players will appear on the player search screen
- Scouting a player more than once will increase the likelihood of the scout finding out more about his strengths and weaknesses
-When assigning coaches to training schedules, take care not overwork them. Even the best coaches can't give the players the attention to detail they want if they've too much to do
- Too much intense physical training during the season is likely to tire your players out faster and increase the risk of injuries
- Players will naturally develop their mental attributes through experience as they get older
- When consulting your Groundsman over pitch dimensions, it is important to keep in mind how your team plays. Having a wide pitch may suit teams that play with wingers whereas it may have a detrimental effect on a team that plays narrow and through the middle

I hope it helps , Thanks again Y2Stu :D
