One of my players just asked to go on extended leave and I said I'd let him, but he hasn't gone automatically.

In Squad>Extended Leave it also says there are no players currently in need to extended leave.

The thing is Celta's president is thinking about retiring in real life and none of his sons want to take over so he's thinking about selling to club to chinese investors.

lower league home advantage is OP.
People will tell you it OP in general but its really not if you look at the stats compared to real life but in the lower leagues it is very much OP
>>
>>74151349
Unless you're playing a tactic that doesn't suit your pitch home advantage is massive.

irl it's not too much of a thing but in fm anyone can beat you at their home

The weird thing is I ended up playing a diamond on a short/wide pitch, which I swear I didn't ask for.

You'd think it wouldn't work, but I went absolutely rape mode on everyone, one of those draws was the first game, and the only loss we were already champions and my ass man was handling things.

Just look at this result against Felixstowe, who finished 4th, absolutely insane.

For us, the nationality of Gibraltarians is just British. It might be a cultural thing like America being one continent and not two divided in North and South America.
And btw my personal opinion in Gibraltar is that it's good for Spain that it is British. It's located in one of the poorest areas of Spain and having an international border there helps the local economy.

But someday I will be Dictator of Spain, Portugal, Andorra and Gibraltar.
And Cape Verde.

Yes, but if you didn't load the Turkish league and didn't put it on view-only, they are going to have lots of grey players. And the strength of the greys is very dependent on the rep of the clubs. Which means a team that'd be shit IRL with their actual squad can be pretty good in FM and vice-versa.

how the fuck do i lower the training workload on my u21's without affecting my first team
>>
>>74161217
You don't. It always depends who they share the facilities with: if they share the facilities with the U19s their training workrate is indexed on the U19s. They're shitters anyway, they should at the very least work their asses off to fulfil whatever little potential they have. A player who cannot handle Hard training usually has poor Professionalism anyway, so just get rid of him.
>>
>>74161217
u21s is reserves anyway

Good prospects go in either u19 or first team squads (putting the good ones in senior team means you don't have to worry about youth facilities or coaches as much)
>>
>>74161217
Who gives a shit about them, just let them rot. You can remove their individual focus if they have one, but seriously - if a youth shitter is complaining about training then he's never going to develop anyway.

fair enough, does this mean i should be sticking anyone that's in the u21's currently onto "Ongoing/90mins" so they're still playing in the games?

Figured out it was because the slider for match preparation was all the way to the right so they're on very high intensity fitness training at all times, took back control from my u23s manager and now they're not on very heavy anymore which is fine

in other news, FUCKING MANDA

For Amateur and Semi-Pro clubs where the players are more often than not on part-time or amateur contracts, it isn't rare that a player will stay on a month-to-month basis. For Pro clubs, or clubs big enough, generally they'll leave 99% of the time. I dunno what happens if the Bosman rule is scrapped despite managing in a save where it is scrapped: I couldn't care less about managing in England or Wales.

>And Germans, adds De Hoog, are asking questions nobody else is. For instance: why should Germany or Bayern Munich field a goalkeeper when they typically only face a couple of shots on target a match? Wouldn't it be smarter to line the guy up in central defense and only send him back into goal in the rare moments when the other team threatens? Then you'd effectively be playing 11 against 10 for most of the match.

Having a striker makes your attacking midfielders less likely to score

I play what's basically a squashed 4123 without strikers and it works so much better than the striker version
>>
>>74164650

On that note, drop deeper is probably a better shout than push slightly higher up for this formation. Having your blocks of 4 more compact makes it harder to break down plus the shadow strikers are more involved in intercepting back passes.

>>74164735

4-4-2 and 3-4-3 also work much better as strikerless for me. 3-4-3 is stupid OP no matter how you line up though.

Welp, this save just got more boring.

Did he at least move to Liverpool?

Also how is Brenny Rodgers doing in all of your saves?

don't you get trouble when facing weaker team playing ultra defensive?
>>
>>74165287
Fucking hell Brenny you daft shit.

I watched him relegate the Wrexham side I had made a top six team. It took him two years. Clueless bastard.

He's managing Stoke to mid table glory while Liverpool sink.

>>74165326
Honestly he is getting carried by Karsdoorp at Stoke.
>>
>>74165251
Nope, he's still at Bayern. Rodgers isn't in my game because I didn't load the Scottish league. Coutinho went to Barca this window, you'll be happy to hear.

On the plus side you have CL football and signed Pulisic (lel). The board have done a pretty shit job though, not gonna lie.

>>74165311
I don't usually use that tactic against weaker teams. I tried it and although it worked against those sort of teams before they caught on to my tactic, it didn't create enough against those ultra defensive teams. It works a little better on standard but I still 3-4-1-2 or 4-4-2 strikerless against smaller sides.
>>
Reflexes and One on ones are literally the two attributes that make or break a keeper. All the others are irrelevant and only there for aesthetical purposes.

I bet that a keeper with 20 in both those stats and 10 in everything else would be the best keeper in the game.
>>
>>74165346
Just to make things clear, I'm not a Pool supporter. I've always supported Hull City (yes I know, sad existence). I was just interested because of the "Javi Martinez joining Pool la" memes.

How good is Pulisic in FM17? Haven't bought the game.

desu if the story about Warburton offering to resign then trying to renege on it when it Forest offered the job to someone else is true, then Warburton can take a flying fuck to himself

How do I sell the original one, wait for the midseason window and flog him there?
>>
>>74168219
Just keep him as a second choice and when he starts complaining about playing time after a little while sell him.
