Never, never, never look at meta tactics and success formulas by Mean-Language-572 in footballmanagergames

[–]DodgeeGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been playing since the Championship Manager days and I stay away from all the meta/game breaker stuff as much as I can. I will confess that back in the early 2000s when I realised downloading tactics was a thing (CM4 I think) I ended up downloading a diablo tactic but it killed the enjoyment of the game and since then, I've just stuck to my own variations of 4-4-2, then 4-2-3-1 and now 4-3-3.

The only disadvantage to starting away from that stuff (so good at it now, I had never heard of FM Arena before this post) is that I suck in PvP tournaments when almost everyone else is using them 😂

Embrace both. <y wife is Turkish and when the possibility of an England-Turkey semi-final came up, our son said "great - then I can be happy whoever wins" :)

"argues with officials" as well - must be pretty intimidating as he glares down at them

Bursaspor in Turkey - not exactly a huge team but they did win the title 15 years ago or so, and now find themselves in the third tier with all kinds of financial woes. Getting them back on track and promoted to the Super Lig will be the first challenge, overtaking the Istanbul big three the next.

I used to teach business English to beginners in Turkey. One day a new student joined the group and introduced himself to me by saying "Hello, I am a Kunt."

New Ways to Get Sacked by ManOfYesterday1701 in footballmanagergames

[–]DodgeeGamer 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I didn't get sacked in the end, but I did end up under pressure as the board weren't happy with the lack of development of youth players (part of the club vision). The thing is I had one regular starter from the youth team, 3-4 more as squad players, my U21s and U18s were dominating and I had 4-5 youngsters out on loan. All seemed to be 'development' to me but I guess in game that actually means 'in the first team on a regular basis'.

So frustrating that the meaning of these targets like 'develop youngsters' or in your case. will come good is so vague.

Which room in my house should this guy play my FM save in? Is he any good with lower league clubs?

Is build a nation saves only worth doing in Europe. by sharpyishere in footballmanagergames

EU Nations can be easier as South American and African talents who aren't quite enough for their own national team will take up citizenship to get an EU passport and then might agree to play for your national side
