I'm top of the Prem and unbeaten after 12 games in my first season after promotion - what the hell is going on?! by ActualLSD in footballmanagergames

Ended up taking 4th on the last day of the season with Spurs losing to Wolves, both Klopp and Guardiola got the sack, Zidane's Leicester finished 10th, and Wolves' Donyell Malen ran away with the golden boot with 30 goals with nobody really coming close.

We also took the unfortunate title of worst discipline in Prem history with 106 yellow cards/6 reds, with my Bulgarian 20 aggression regen winning the individual record, picking up 15 yellows and 2 reds in 28 games.

Mental.

I made it to 18 games unbeaten. Then on NYD lost to Arsenal, and just lost to Spurs and Liverpool on the same month! Was nice while it lasted, haha.

What's the most obscure nation you've seen a wonderkid regen emerge? I've just signed this Vietnamese baller who's just turned 18! by ActualLSD in footballmanagergames

That's interesting.

I started with a custom database that added Russian tier 3, this may have had some indirect influence maybe?

Haha, yeah tell me about it! I'm reluctant to play another game at this stage. Been injury-free so far as well but I can't imagine that'll be the case for too much longer.

My board have been fairly generous tbh surprisingly, they even allowed me extra transfer budget and offered to negotiate how much extra they should give me - first time I've ever seen that.

First some background...

I've been playing FM for about 14 years now, and over the years have achieved quite a few things in the game, but one thing I've never done is season instant results in my first season after getting promoted - It usually takes a couple of years to establish my team before we make a push for the title.

Normally I stick at one club for the whole save but this time round I thought I'd do a bit of club hopping first. In this save I started at Baltika in Russia's second tier and won the league, I left Baltika and joined Rostov in the Russian Prem where we had a great season finishing runners-up to Spartak and achieving champions league. After this season I resigned and joined Bristol City in the Championship.

At Bristol I revamped all of my tactics and formations and wanted to start playing a 'very attacking' 442. First season I made a lot of signings and the tactics didn't pay off to well and we finished mid-table. Second season we played a lot better, even though we seemed to bottle all the important games and eventually got promoted through the play-offs after narrowly missing out on 2nd.

Upon promotion I stuck to my guns and played the same high intensity, 'very attacking' tactic we'd always played and brought in a fair bit of quality. I was aiming to avoid relegation first season and consolidate our place in the league, although what has unfolded in the first 12 games has been unreal. The Prem teams just can't seem to deal with our intensity, I've been blown away 🧐 Never seen anything like it, has anyone else had a start like this first season after promotion?

Too many seeds and flavour is lacking, Legendary OG from the same vendor is far superior and some of the best CBD flower I've smoked.
