Football Manager Discussion

Happy Wednesday guys 😁 'Actual Game Footage' What do you think?

Disappointment news to wake up to this morning. I'm not surprised they have eventually scrapped FM25. I think they knew it would never happen sadly. They have screwed up massively and got huge job to get trust again from FM community.

So which club have you adopted as one you support from playing FM, could be from any version of FM you've played all the way back to FM05 or maybe a team you took control of in the CM series if you are like me and where around when dinosaurs roamed the earth. There's been a few clubs that I've become interested in through my time but none have captured me like my time at HNK Rijek in Croatia. I've been really enjoying the current save I have going with them, so far my biggest achievement is taking them to the round of 16 beating Napoli, Inter and Ajax in the run. What club has captured you?

Have you found any cheap/free transfers or hidden gems players on cheap, why not post them here? I will post a few that I have found on my Lens save! Felipe Augusto - Free Been absolutely brilliant since signed him in the summer, sadly picked up an injury, out for 4 months 😞 Maybe be on big wage but decent player. Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty - Can be signed for free, contract expires in few months time at the start of the game Abdoulaye Djire - Can be signed for 275K. Probably decent signing for Mid-teams in Premier League or Championship I will add more when I find some 👍

FM25 is delayed until March 2025. Thoughts? My thinking is better skip it, update FM24's database, make it one season later ingame, and focus on FM26 instead...

I was wondering how SI are going to implement this. Women and men's football is so different. Not to criticise, but amateur male teams beat women's national teams all the time. How would they handle the ca and pa for example, compared to men?

I've created a 15 minute video showing you how to set up Football Manager 2024 to play a realistic version of Euro 2024 with all the correct groups. You will need to download the UEFA Euro 2024 Real Groups: https://www.fmscout.com/a-uefa-euro-2024-real-groups.html Put uefa_euro_2024_real_group_227215.fmf in your '\Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2024\editor data' folder. Start a new game with the editor file activated, and include either Finland, Norway or Sweden. Set the game to start on 01/04/2024. This is only possible if you have Finland, Norway or Sweden selected. When you progress to the Euro 2024 group stage draw, the groups draw…

I've created a shortlist of 18 players who can play as a striker and have decent fitness so can play as much as possible, and have low wages at the start of the game. I've not checked their current or potential ability. I will buy whoever wins the vote for a very good team (likely Man City or Real Madrid) and play through the seasons with them playing as much as possible, with the hope of the player winning the most prestigious individual award in World Football. …

Obviously we have played the game for, well, some of us, 20 odd years. I recently read some stuff about players (mostly newgens) getting cancer treatment in the game, getting your son through the youth academy, coming out as gay etcetera. I think my weirdest experience was this one, maybe I told it before, can't find it, but I tell again. In 2018 Holland did not qualify for the World Cup in real life, but in my FM18 game, they actually did qualify. With only few qualification games left, they went to Russia. In my game Van Wolfswinkel (my main striker at the time) had a very good campaign, and was selected. He was pretty much average, compare him to Weghorst or…

Typically I normally start my first FM game of each version choosing a team below the Premier League. However, you would imagine a popular choice this year may be the newly rich Newcastle United. Who are you guys going to start off with for FM24?

Absolutely buzzing 🔥👊 thank you to everyone who supports me & all that will follow in the future Huge thank you 🔥👌 #FM #FM23 #FM24 #footballmanager @footballmanager

Why in the world is there no topic about this? 😱 FM25 will finally be a completely new game as we know it! What you think about it?

It's not something I've done this year but a lot of the time I have managed two teams at the same time with one being lower league and the other more elite. Yes there were some questionable loan signings made before anyone asks! Does anyone else manages more than one team at a time?

You got any decent regens/newgens? Why not show them off here! I will start, In talks to sign this kid for my Anderlecht save, 750K! Bargain. Those guys came through intakes Made his debut at age 15. This guy just came through this season intakes, made his debut against OH Leuven, and didn't concede 😎 I am stuck in a limbo with this guy, Not sure if I should train him as BWM (best position rating apparently) or train him as AM- AP
