Its fine if you don't want to learn how a mechanic in a game works enough that you can succeed in the game. You're just not going to be good at the game, its purely a skill issue.
If you want a game you can just hit a button and win, can I suggest something like subway surfer or cookie clicker?
#FM27
100% this.
Tbh If you're really struggling with FM27, you probably weren't doing the correct things in previous versions neither.
Use shouts, use tweaks, that's why they are there. Know what roles and tactics do without exploits. The learning curve really isn't difficult.
Having had a few days and many hours of frustration with #FM27, I understand the criticism of the game, and specifically the Tactical Effectiveness.
I'd become so used to being able to manipulate and exploit match engines, that over the years I had got used to just brute forcing and speedrunning my waybthrough seasons and easily improving.
This year you have to... actually play the game... you cant just play fantasy league and slam your spacebar to a treble. You actually have to *shock* MANAGE THE FOOTBALL TEAM.
I for one love that needing to actually play the qame has returned. Make suitable tactics, recruit smartly, coach with intent.
The easy short term dopamine hit is gone, the long term reward is back.
If you want to download an exploit tactic and win a treble within 4 seasons with Swansea, stick to FM24. If you actually want a game to play and interact with, FM27 is great.
I love this game.
Just to add to this excellent piece of advice.
Individually train your players in the roles you want them to play in your tactics. It massively helps with everything effectiveness wise and player buy in.
Some have already mentioned tactical effectiveness. Match engine also isn’t best balanced atm. But one thing I’d say is watch out for the player roles you’re using and mentality.
Small example is that I see many like channel forward. Despite asking for short passing, if you’re striker is constantly making that run, you’re players will be inclined to play direct/through balls given he’s asking for that.

They talk as if Spurs created the "big 6" and put ourselves in it
It was created by the media/newspapers/pundits etc
No Spurs fan gives a shit about being in the "big 6" it means fuck all
Villa & Newcastle fans butt hurt over something they desperately want to be

Tonali to Spurs, Bruno to Arsenal, Gordan to Barcelona. Atleast this is the window where Newcastle fans learn their place in the food chain. No matter how rich their owners are, they will always be a stepping stone club just like Villa.

Yes I might have my Spurs supporters hat on right now.
But anytime a club who hasn't won a single trophy in 70 years, have half the revenue of the top 6 clubs, and think it's fair a sugar daddy can come in and buy whoever they want are absolute clowns.
Football didn't start two years ago.
Spurs have been in Europe 17 times in the last 20 years while clubs like Newcastle spent time in the Championship.
We focused on facilities, our revenue, and abiding by PSR.
Newcastle thought Saudi billions could buy success. 😭
