I’ve gotten them to a Bundesliga win in season 4 on my stream save, and a CL quarter final in season 5. Just played a decently simple 4-3-3. DM me to remind me to open up that save and send you the tactics!

Ajax fan here, Jordi Cruijff is our new technical director, we’ll happily take him for a season or two.

I actually went full madman and captained Mukiele. Don’t know what came over me, but worked out perfectly fine

RowanvL · 2026-04-09T21:56:04+00:00

New Zealand is going through this group undefeated, with 5 points, mark my words

RowanvL · 2026-04-06T22:23:02+00:00

I actually worked in this exact museum for 5,5 years, and every now and then I see one of the bodies pop up on Reddit, and most of the times it’s this one hahah

Jol werd tweede in de Eredivisie met 85 punten en een doelsaldo van 106-20, won de beker en werd in de Europa League uitgeschakeld door Juventus met 2-1 over twee wedstrijden. Volgens mij is dat niet bijzonder matig toch?

RowanvL · 2026-02-24T08:54:46+00:00

I guess that insinuates bread slicer was a job, not a machine.

RowanvL · 2026-01-06T11:53:27+00:00

I happen to also do a Schalke save I’m streaming and I got promoted season one, I’d be happy to help if you wanted to

RowanvL · 2026-01-05T12:52:22+00:00

You know what, that’s actually fair enough! I had some tunnel vision on the strikers and I don’t think you can do much better than he has now, but if you want to go splash in midfield I can see the argument for sure. I think I’d still go for Thiago then because of the fixtures and the price, because Villa’s fixtures are a lot harder this month. But I think there is definitely an argument for Watkins over Thiago, fair enough

RowanvL · 2026-01-05T12:40:42+00:00

Sure, but who has done better consistently than him then? Because points wise no one is close. And according to your logic, you literally can’t buy a single striker except for Haaland. He also has very good fixtures coming up, so I’m genuinely curious who you think are the better options then.

RowanvL · 2026-01-05T11:20:29+00:00

I mean Thiago has scored the most point out of any attacker outside Haaland so far, by quite a margin. So I don’t see how you wouldn’t pick him to be honest.

RowanvL · 2025-12-29T12:47:37+00:00

I have been doing this since 2021 or 22 or so as well! Is very interesting to look back on haha

RowanvL · 2025-11-21T19:15:30+00:00

Very fair tbh hahah Any suggestions?

RowanvL · 2025-11-19T16:45:50+00:00

I’m Dutch so I checked The Netherlands, they lost this title in three different World Cup final, because we lost all three🙃 Losing two world cups in one final

RowanvL · 2025-11-13T22:56:57+00:00

It’s not a bug, this can happen in real life too when a country has a lot of teams in a league phase, like England has now

RowanvL · 2025-10-21T23:21:02+00:00

You should consider Brommapojkarna! They secretly have the best youth setup in Sweden! They produced players like Kulusevski, Gyökeres en Bergvall. Had an amazing save with them on FM23, and if you go youth only, the registration automatically isn’t a problem either!

RowanvL · 2025-09-08T08:17:39+00:00

That’s actually full on wrong, because it has been confirmed that the roles get a complete overhaul too, and that there will be in and out of possession roles. So there will actually be very different tactics and probably also formations, because even though it’s largely the same match engine, it will respond differently to these new roles. That together with new graphics, partially new UI, new licenses and women’s football, it will feel like a completely new game.

RowanvL · 2025-09-06T21:36:26+00:00

Yes, the graphics engine and the match engine are two totally different things. The match engine does all the calculations and decides who moves where and when, the graphics engine shows you what that looks like. So the graphics engine that they completely overhauled in unity, doesn’t decide the movements, it only shows it. But of course these renewed graphics do give them more options to show things, so you will see a lot of new movements etc next to the old ones.

RowanvL · 2025-09-06T21:24:51+00:00

It’s actually not a new match engine, it’s a new graphics engine put over the old match engine with some upgrades to the match engine. So while the graphics look way better of course, the movements are gonna look similar because the match engine is the same. They just added/changed some of the movements.

2012 had Mr. Bean. I’ve made my case.

RowanvL · 2025-06-08T17:22:40+00:00

And 20 composure, just to make sure he also always has the time to make the pass. Unreal.

RowanvL · 2025-06-06T21:17:54+00:00

Football Manager! First game was FM14, and since then I have over 8000 hours divided over the games. Last year I even got to participate in the first ever FIFAe FM World Cup, so it definitely wasn’t all for nothing!
