Yes and no. Its related to personality, hiddens and the squad status given in their contract so you can never be sure but to give yourself the best chance don't just make someone a key player because it allows you to give them the wages they want because if you do that they'll expect to be starting nearly every game.

Why would FM get progressively more laggy when it deletes player data etc after a player has retired? I never got this desu. Surely it could be avoided withe better programming?
>>
>>64571537
It could definitely be improved on by SI but you've gotta consider it does keep some player historys, the stats for each season played are far more in depth than those before the save starts so every team and player that does still exist is contributing to the lag the longer a save goes on.
>>
>>64571591

But couldn't they make it an option to flush most of the data after x years?
>>
>>64571537
even if the amount of regens generated is equal (I personally think it's higher, since some NTs seem to get populated to a point of becoming playable (although it might me due to getting regens only at the country top clubs, who are more likely to get called up than the crappy real players who got loaded in LLM teams) to the amount of players retiring that year, not all players get deleted (become staff, have history saved)

GOAT underdog formation:

-----------CF-----------
-----------AP-----------
-----BBM----DLP------
CWB---BWM----CWB
----CB---CB---CB-----
----------GK-------------

Play this with control, fluid, wide, shorter passing, higher tempo, slightly higher defensive line, and exploit middle, play out of defence, pass into space, look for overlap, and work ball into box. Trust me on this one lads, with my shitty Aston Villa team (no new signings) I picked up 40 points in the 2nd half of the season and only lost once (away at Chelsea).

>The Portuguese was sacked by Chelsea earlier this month with the club languishing at the wrong end of the Premier League table.

>It came just a matter of months after guiding the Blues to the title as Roman Abramovich finally lost patience.

>His axe hasn't put off any potential suitors though with Manchester United and Real Madrid both said to be keen

>But they have competition - from the worst club in the world.

>The Portuguese has been linked with Real Madrid and Manchester United - but Brazilian side Ibis Sport Club have made their move (sort of)

>Ibis Sport Club, a Brazilian-side based in Recife, have offered the Portuguese their manager's job.

>The offer includes a food hamper as his monthly salary - and bonuses for every game he loses.

>And if that's not enough, Mourinho will be sacked....if he WINS the title!

SI need to fix the fact that almost every time you go in for a player one of the big clubs suddenly jumps in and tries to steal him. I know this happens IRL but it happens way too often on this.
>>
>>64592554
>I am the only person aware of this player and its outrageous that when I attempt to sign this talented player somebody else also attempts to do so even though transfers are almost never kept private these days as clubs and agents hope to spark a bidding war

>>64592567
Exactly. It's 2015+1, secrets are a concept of the past. Do you really think that deals concerning millions upon millions can be held under the covers?
>>
>>64592567
It's more the fact that these clubs suddenly only become interested when you do.
>>
>>64592587
>Decide to keep an eye on a players development before buying

>>64592587
>what is chelsea football club

>>64592596
No, but it happens too often and more often than it used to happen on FM.
>>
>>64592607
>it happens too often
Do you believe that any team in any of the top 5 leagues are ever the only ones to bid on a player?
>>
>>64592623
>Implying you're even reading what I'm saying
>>
>>64592587
>clubs aren't listed as interested so they don't know he exists
>>
>>64592632
Yeah you said it happens more often than old FMs and that may be true but even if it is does that mean this FM is buggy or were all previous FMs too lax or has the footballing world changed and all the FMs were correct?
I'd say more likely the previous FMs were too lax on it and footballing world has changed a bit making transfers a more public thing ensuring it doesn't stay a secret and increasing interest and bids on a player.

You're as bad as those saying there are too many injuries in FM. There aren't. There are more than in previous FMs but the previous FMs had injuries way too low so it isn't a bug, its an intentional increase to simulate realism.

>>64594908

>>64595180

>>64595206
I've been trying to look around, is there a way to just chat with the player about it? I'm on FM16
>>
>>64595365
I have tried. It doesn't work. That's why I put a two year extension into my best players contract and when he said no to a new contract, I extended it. Now he can't go anywhere for two years, but still plays well because he's my captain etc.
>>
>>64595365
Why is he unhappy? Do the opposite of what made him a less than happy chap
>>
>>64595412
Typical, I guess I'll just put him on the transfer list

>>64595433
Only negative he has is that he isn't getting enough coaching attention during tactics training, but he's still content with the training. The only explanation I get is that he wants to leave at the end of his contract
>>
>>64595517
But what did he say before he made the decision to leave on a free transfer, you must have done something to upset him
>>
>>64595652
He set his manager's nationality to Dutch and this upset the player greatly

hmm.
your cpu should be plenty solid for FM, considering half the thread still plays on core2duos in older netbooks.

I have a comparable CPU for single threaded purposes (i5-4670k), and although I have it oc'd to 3.8GHz, I rarely see temps over 40c/105F regardless of what's running.

How is your tower situated in the room?
What's your idle temp, and then temp after a bit of FM, and then your desired temp?
Do you primarily use the 2d match engine or 3d?
What's the estimated player count of the leagues you have loaded?
>>
>>64608262
>How is your tower situated in the room?

>What's your idle temp, and then temp after a bit of FM, and then your desired temp?
it idles at 45C-50C, when processing the days it jumps up to 65C-70C which is what i want it to be near(peaking near 70), but its when it goes into a match is when it spikes, it goes up to 86C-90C and jumps around that range during the match it's gone as high as 95C before and it concerns me. I didn't have this problem with 15 or 13 either.
>Do you primarily use the 2d match engine or 3d?
been using 3d only since i started, like i said i didnt have this problem in other versions, do you think switching to 2d would help?
>What's the estimated player count of the leagues you have loaded?
50k, which is what i usually used in 13 and 15 as well
>>
>>64608282
>it's on my floor sitting under my desk
Do you have a bottom mounting PSU? That might be slightly hurting it if you do, but it shouldn't be causing the spikes you're seeing.
Although with bottom mounted intake fans it might not be pulling enough air to cool.

>it idles at 45C-50C, when processing the days it jumps up to 65C-70C which is what i want it to be near(peaking near 70), but its when it goes into a match is when it spikes, it goes up to 86C-90C
Intel has the T(case) value for the 2700k at 72.6 C. That's basically the "everything is safe below this 100% guaranteed" value. With that being said, low 80s should still be perfectly fine, as long as it's not run like a server with 100% uptime in the 80s.

Spikes in the upper 90s doesn't sound so good. At this point I would really only suggest replacing thermal paste and perhaps moving it to a more open location if possible. Watch temps for a few days afterwards, if there's no/minimal improvement I'd consider setting the corners of the case on an encyclopedia or something large and stable that still provides most of the bottom an additional 2-3 inches of airspace for your intake to pull.

Absolutely not, 3d is run on dedicated GPU, I'm not confident that 2d engine doesn't run on your CPU regardless of available hardware.

pretty good, but I find it harder to get great results, conceding a shit ton of counter goals although my defenders are great, tactics are fine (apparently not tho).

I currently manage AS Roma in 2nd year after securing rb leipzig a promotion. after this season I probably gonna step down because I want a new challenge. My team looks unreal but only because the AI is so fucking bad in this game. James was listed for 40 mil, giroud for 16 mil, siqueira for 3, dragovic for 30 (not cheap tho), peruzzi 10mil, but the players I sold are worth 400mil+ because Pjanic, Salah, Gerson were sold for 70mil+ each. Transfers are way too easy, luring away talents too, was way harder in 15 when playing a big club.

So all in all, I play it, but because of the updated game mechanics and sweet sweet animations in the engine and not for the way too easy AI and gameplay they built in.

oh god, but even Dybala for 112 mio is fucking insane.

I observed, if you play with a DoF and let him make offers and have a shitton of money left in the budget because of great finances because you're a fucking tranfser genius, he will make offers for players you don't need in this position at all (had a tactic with 2 DMs and had 6 players who could play there and he wanted to buy an MC with DM only accomplished and not natural) like 60m for jorginho from napoli. But also players get massively overrated fast at a high level and you can easily carry a bad player though the season, always bringing him in when you are winning, can easily get 20m+ in value and you can sell him for 30m+

hello everyone

let's talk Attacking Fullbacks

Year in and out I usually use the same narrow/short passing/control/anchorman/walk into the box meme formation that works really well since the only thing your striker needs is a good finishing

This year I did the same, but I noticed almost all my goals came from crosses from the left wing (30%) and from. So I decided to switch my formation to try to use the flanks and my fullbacks and try to get a Target Man to score most of my goals. I also added ML and MR, to try it out but I hate this since I think this is the most scarce position in FM games.

31 games into the season here are my stats
41% of my assists are from the left wing
35% of my goals are from crosses

I lead the league in goals (64) compared to 39 scored against (8th least conceded)
126 Clear cut chances (No idea where this ranks)

STATS
MR and ML. they are both 3 star players. 11 goals each (subs have 3 more). 17 assists and 13 PoM together.

Shadow Striker which makes sense to me because my striker is shit and I this guy is easily the best player on my team (free loan from OM). 7 goals / 10 assists. Sub has 5 goals / 1 assist.

Fullbacks have 3 goals / 12 assists. None of them are particularly good and I've had a ton of injuries this year.

My formation is 4-1-3-1-1
SWEEPER KEEPER
Attacking Fullbacks and BPD
Defensive BWM DM
Attacking WM and CM
SS
False 9 (used to be poacher through mid season)

My instructions are pretty standard: low tempo, offside trap, early crosses, short passing, play out defense and stay on feet. I'm using Be More Disciplined but only because my players are not that good.
>>
>>64631661

Anyway, I was wondering what your fullbacks stats look like when you're looking for a similar concept. I am wondering if installing wide midfielders make the use of fullbacks redundant and just give me more defensive vulnerabilities.

I did not expect my wide midfielders to do so well due to my previous experience with wide formations in my previous saves, specially not to have half of my teams goals (if anything I expected more assists)

Also I am still not sure what roles to use for my AMC and Striker. I think I will just use whatever is the best formation for my setup, since my AMC is so good I wanted him to have the most chances.

Also, do you guys think float crosses are better? I think they are much more effective, contrary to logic

If you had shown me those stats at 18 i wouldnt have called him GOAT. Or at 17. At 16? Perhaps so.

Canadian is the key word here

He'll be average at best, but I only have 2 decent strikers in the squad currently so he'll play a fair bit for me in the Championship

Best Canadian I've ever seen in any of my saves

I ended up signing him when I joined Dortmund and he tore it up every game

Good times

Think it would be possible to just draw out the rest of the 14 games and still qualify for the WC?
>>
Just had one of the worst goal-keeping howlers ever. I'm 1-0 up and I've got a throw near my corner flag with literally 20 seconds left. The defenders pass it around the back for a bit and it reaches the goalkeeper who instead of just hoofing it upfield and ending the game passes it to the opposing striker who's standing on the edge of the area in front of him. The striker scored and I drew. If I'd won that game I'd now be 2nd.

That article's BS. He makes out that everything was running fine under O'Neill when actually Lerner made a huge mistake in letting that prick have such a free reign and piss so much money up the wall.

and here I was hoping for a challenging and exciting derby
>>64647786
so he should've praised McLeish's era?
>>
>>64647832
No, he should've just said that Lerner's made poor decisions since he arrived, not since O'Neill left. His decision to let O'Neill waste so much money when we were actually spending decent amounts was just a big a mistake as anything he's done since.
