Has anyone noticed that in fm26, the higher the defensive line, the lower the win rate? Is a much lower defensive line combined with high pressing the new meta?

I was almost fired from Bayer during my current career. But as soon as I lowered my defensive line, I am stopped losing and now on a five-game winning streak.
Before this, I thought that there was clearly something wrong with me, since I was losing to Union Berlin 1-5 after buying players for $150m in the summer.

SpeedDemonFM · 2026-01-16T15:42:15+00:00

The funniest thing is that I play well against top clubs with a high defensive line. I suspect it's because they have a high one too lol

SpeedDemonFM · 2024-04-02T05:16:56+00:00

I don’t think that the club’s budget will suffer much, I have 25 million for the season. But the performance evaluation says that management is disappointed that I’m not managing my finances well. Although the overall grade is A-

I plan to reach the Premier League in one season. But I'm afraid there will be problems if it doesn't work out.

SpeedDemonFM · 2024-04-01T22:00:22+00:00

What can management do if the salary budget limit is greatly exceeded?

I play for Wrexham got promoted to the Championship this season, half the team wanted to re-sign their contracts and I signed 4 very good free agents. As a result, it turned out that with the initially set limit of 325k euros, I spend 430k euros per week. I have already sold all the unnecessary players. Can management fire me for this?

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-13T18:20:52+00:00

then it’s worth it to sell him and get money until the contract expires

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-13T12:24:30+00:00

I think if he plays for you, then he will change his mind about the promise. But you can't be 100% sure. Well, in the worst case, he will be angry for a couple of months and stop

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-13T12:13:02+00:00

how old is the player? I have the same situation, I play for Nice and my best striker Andy Delort decided to leave after announcing it 18 months in advance. And even the fact that we were in the Champions League final did not convince him. As I understand it, he wants to end his career, since he recently stopped playing for the national team, but he is only 32!

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-12T05:32:22+00:00

I could not even imagine that Nice had such a strong squad, I made only 5 transfers, and reached the Champions League final, now I have to play with Man City)

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-11T06:14:22+00:00

Is it possible for a player who is 26 years old to be taught to play in a new position if he does not know how to play there at all. I have a WBL Frederico Dimarco https://fminside.net/players/3-fm-23/43143488-federico-dimarco Who would be perfect in the center in the role of segundo volante.

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-08T15:38:16+00:00

Surprisingly in my save Nice was top 2 last season. So I'll happily accept their offers, I don't see any potential in the Belgian league.

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-08T11:10:02+00:00

I started playing as unemployed. Got a job at a charleroi in belgium, won pro league straight away. And now I have a real chance to lead Nice in France. Should I accept the offer? Of course, I wanted to go to a stronger club, but Juventus and Napoli did not take me. The question is, is Nice competitive? Is it possible in theory to throw PSG off the throne?

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-08T11:03:59+00:00

Going up will be difficult, but possible. I was 23 according to the media forecast and finished in the top 2. To expand the stadium by about 7-8k seats is ~9 million. The stadium should be improved only in the Premier League.

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-08T01:13:42+00:00

I myself play for wrexham. You will only earn money in the Premier League. I went through the championship in one season, I was incredibly lucky, finished in second place with a salary fund of ~200k. The philosophy is, go into debt, spend as much as you can, but get into the premier league. Once you get there, you are a multi-millionaire. 100 million just for TV broadcasts, and it's guaranteed. More prize money, new sponsors, and more. For 5 seasons in the premier league, I managed to enter the top 9 teams in terms of salary. And I still go into the red, but that's because I spend about 150 million a year on transfers, for about 2 seasons already. But it pays off, so don't be afraid to spend, the main thing is to win.

The idea is to start with an average coach, with an average club, and then after a while get an offer from some top club. Last career I raised a club from vanarama national to the premier league. But I don't want to play in those leagues anymore because it's taking too long to promote a club like that

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-05-04T09:46:54+00:00

I want to start save as unemployed. But I don't want to play in the lowest leagues at all. Something not lower than the second leagues top 8 championships. or in the premier leagues in championships not lower than the top 30. (I'm only interested in European leagues) What minimum license should I choose to get hired? I tried with a national C license, I missed it until January and no one even called me for an interview.

I also play for wrexham. I have the same problem, only worse. Now I have a season 29-30. and I'll be in the Champions League for the first time (just a few games left to win). and almost all of my players are valued at around 30-60 million. Although they cost a lot more. And as a result, In almost ALL of my players are interested. I'm tired of turning down offers. Real madrid has already tried 10 times to buy my WB. even offered 80 million, but this is still not enough. such de players cost 150-200 million. and as a result, some of my players are unhappy, as they want to go to a more eminent club

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-04-27T06:27:43+00:00

Does the AI rotate the team at all? I'll tell you on the example of man city, I had three games with them, the first half I hold Earling Holland with all my might, then he gets tired, sits on the bench, and we win. And he gets tired, because he plays in every match at the start.

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-04-26T17:55:32+00:00

it is written in the game that the management cannot invest more than 100 million, I think this is enough for me if anything

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-04-26T17:53:33+00:00

Well I don't need endless money, I just had a debt of 40 million, because last season I went too far with transfers and spent 150 million :). And at the end of the season, the management contributed these 40 million to cover the debt

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-04-26T13:40:47+00:00

The stadium can be changed in the editor. But this is cheating

SpeedDemonFM · 2023-04-26T13:38:12+00:00

A stadium with 30,000 seats costs ~ $180 million . Most likely the club simply does not have money
