Okay serious question time guys

My club is semi-pro and I can only offer non-contracts, several other lower rep and less wealthy clubs can offer part time time contracts.
There is no compulsory professional status in this country so I'm looking at years of saving up with non-contract players to go pro.

I've found a fix for this but it involves changing the club to amateur and then back to semi-pro.

Would this be cheating or just correcting a data base/SI error?

I know it's not Fifa and it's just a simulacrum of bollocks that has no effect on the actual FM mechanics, BUT, when they stop like that and allow four defenders to swamp them it drives me up the fucking wall.

>>76681968
It rarely looks like attacking players are aware of other people on the pitch. The amount of times strikers or wingers in possession of the ball run into a cluster of 3-4 defenders rather than into open space drives me up the fucking wall. Defenders also seem to have the opposite problem of not seeing attackers, especially in situations where the ball is in the air. This makes me want to write angry reviews in Chinese.

>Face an attacking situation

>Swings it at the far post
And the other attacker never, EVER is marked. They seem to completely forget his existence or even the possibility he might exist. It's even more egregious in FM16 and FM17 where even if the dribbler is at the edge of the box, near the goal line, he can make a backpass and there always will be someone unmarked at the penalty spot.

Hey guys, I'm looking to start a new save, but I'm not reallysure of what team to pick.

I'm still learning the ropes after a somewhat succesful couple of years with Talleres, but I still struggle with many aspects of the game.

My team is also pretty irregular, as there are times in which we can win 7-8 matches in a row as well as times in which we simply can't seem to create enough opportunities to score and play very poorly. I've also noticed that my Defenders are very prone to concede stupid goals to the opposition.

Apart, from reading the guide, I'd apreciate any advise you guys can give me.

I'm also thinking of starting my second save on the Argentinian Second Division, but I'm not really sure if it's the best option right now. Most of the teams in pic are quite even regarding budgets and player hability.

>TL;DR
What's a good team to start a second save if one's still learning the basics?

This gave me a definitetly autistic, maybe good idea:
T-shirts with some FM attributes on there, like
>Aggression 20
>Bravery 20
>Composure 20
>Concentration 1
>Decisions 1
>Determination 1
>Flair 20
>Leadership 1
>Teamwork 1
>Vision 20
>Work Rate 1
Maybe with a slightly entertaining slogan beneath that. Does something like that already exist?
It's like a combination of band shirts with those tacky shirts with sexual wordplay or innuendos on them, only it just shows everyone how utterly autistic you are.
Honestly, as long as if it isn't too sexual with >Dirtyness 20 most people won't care or get what you're on about, but imagine meeting someone that does.

Adding Estonia to my flag collection; likewise, hopefully it will materialize in my next intake after I renegotiate the terms of the affiliation. Hopefully I'll get some more exotic flags at least, Eastern European ones are kinda boring. not even rare ones, just exotic ones.

The likely result would be a defeat, and I will want to hang myself for that. Should've lost more and went to EL. At least I should consider that next year, I'm starting to feel that the EL might be winnable in two to four seasons.

>>76686218
Nah, I think I have to continuously bring new young players every fucking year. Except that I'm rather satisfied with what I have and look forward to see them progress, so while I still actively scout I'm not going to get rid of my players for miserable offers at every window to make way for new unconfirmed youngsters over and over again.
>>
is it potentially possible for this relative position on the table to be roughly maintained for the remainder of the current season?
>>
>>76686302
Jesus, so I'm guessing the slightly easier youth related board requests aren't worth it on balance
>>
>>76686419
Well I was the one who requested it so there's that. When I started the save, the board was even reluctant towards this philosophy (but they accepted it without arguing anyway). It allows me to get youth related requests accepted more easily, no matter what they are. However it made it a bit harder to get affiliates especially for first option deals... that being said, even if your affiliation is about something completely different you still get first options anyway.

Just signed a 36 year old Joe Cole. I can never seem to shake off the habit of signing players that were good on CM 01/02. Last year, Del Piero was my go-to-money-out-of-the-window-because-I-am-sentimental-guy.

Depends of the league's rules. I can play them if I want. I realised that lowering the youth age to the minimum, which is 14 yo and two years younger than vanilla, is kinda pointless. You just get more players with terrible CA, which is reflected upon the AssMan's opinion of their potential (what they can actually reach). Or you get a load of 14 yo who are going to be good enough for the league at 16yo. Of course you can pamper them for longer, but still... One year lower is enough.

He'll never get to play in the league, I maintain a squad of 22 players and rotate all the time, very often fielding two different teams if I have two matches in the same week.

I don't know what you mean by that 2bh. a slack guy is never likely to be highly-professional, it's true, he's always going to be a drag on the team personality and he's never going to reach his max PA if his max PA is high
but you can certainly turn a slack guy into someone who'll train just hard enough to make it as a professional player

Are you actually surprised? It's reputation based, as well as finance based (well, you're cheap for them). Basically, FM thinks that winning the double in Malta is equivalent to being a good D2/D3 manager in England. Do you know how many billion offers I have to reject from D2 European teams after doing the double in Slovenia?
>>
>>76718543

I was trying to sign a wunderkind to my Portsmouth save, so I decided to go on holiday until the transfer window opened but someone else signed him. What do I do?

Should I just reload the save and go on holiday until he isn't signed and then I can get him?

I FUCKING ROTATE.

>>76718965
You can sign before the window and should, even if it's before you get your new budget

The window is just when they arrive, you could reload or just consider this a learning experience
>>
>>76719002
Ok but my board won't let me sign him until the window opens. I really hate playing the actual games so I just go on holiday until it opens. It's annoying because my computer is slow and I'm on holiday for 4 months until it opens.

Which is why I told you that you were downplaying your chances. Champions' Qualifying rounds are piss easy compared to Best Placed or even the EL playoffs. Most teams are either not that significantly stronger than you are or/and filled with greys. Obviously you're unlikely to get through GNK Dinamo, Celtic or Kobenhavn, but the rest is quite affordable.

Look at the scorelines in the first CL in this save. Comical. Do note that I had loaded Scandivanian players too (so both Copenhagen and Dinamo had real players). Their teams are stronger, richer with better infrastructures but their tactic are laughable. In >>76721728, Manure should've won this at least 6-0, perhaps 6-1 since I got a goal on a nice FK.

Depends how they react, but there are only two solutions: blast them off or tell them not to be complacent. Never praise them until the work is done. The issue is that the complacency talk historically has absurd results on their reactions and morale, with players getting unmotivated for no bloody reason.

I needed the CL group stage money to scout worldwide, so about 15M€ when all was said and done. I doubt you need that much, but it just unlocked itself when I qualified for the group stage.

I'd feel bad about finishing third on purpose to get to the EL.

We're struggling to cope with the numbers in midfield.

It's safe to say it hasn't been a classic so far.

I am nearly mid-season in the Championship, and out of my best eleven:
2 are decent for league one
2 are well-suited for vanarama
1 is good for vanarama
2 are good for league one
2 are well-suited for championship
1 is good for championship
1 is decent for league two
And no money to buy more players.
To what degree will I get raped if we get promoted to the Premiership? Should I avoid it for a few seasons rather than risking a 99% chance of relegation?

You'll get ton of money even if you lose every single game in the prem. Way more than playing in Championship would.

>>76732963
You should go up ASAP

Worst case scenario is having to sign a bunch of free agents and even then you can probably eke out 17th
>>
>>76733159
>>76733346
Then I 'll just hope I keep the job. Still no real danger of promotion, as a few of the players have decided to ruin our form after 11 matches unbeaten.
>>
>>76733388
In most cases you're only likely to go down if it was a miracle promotion

And a miracle promotion makes the board love you enough to not fire you

This and improved newgen faces in FM 18, or I will hang myself.

>>76734322
What's especially annoying is that my facilities are so shit that they stay as "basic" even after the upgrade

why not at least let me upgrade them a whole tier?

>go down to ten men

...I need to test out the adjustment I made as a proper formation

The fewer passing options, the less confusion.

Can we all agree Tsunaldo is a failure if he doesn't bag at least a hat trick against Poo Peeland?
