wattzy Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 sorry if this has already been mentioned. Basically simply want to know whether players from the same country are actually affected? E.g My strikers are Baptista and Keirrison both of Brazil...Will they play better together then if i put one of them with, say, an italian such as Totti??

Serdar Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I think it is more about the spoken languages, favourite personal and adaptability stats. Otherwise I did not notice any affect of nationalities on performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sel Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 italian teams are a good example of squad harmony. They have italians as a core and 1 foreign nationality. eg milan has brazilians while inter has argentines. In the game it is purely for settling purposes and until they learn the language. If you have a team of brazilians in your roma team, new brazilian signings will adjust easier Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenArsenal Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Suppossedly, though I reckon language is more of a factor. Then again, you have Tevez, Park Ji Sung and Evra being really good friends in real life... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattzy Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 Thanks guys. Sel thats the kinda thing i have done, im Roma and have basically carried on with their policy of using italians and brazilians. Just merely wondered if it will have an affect on performances?

BlochMcParty Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I had a related problem soon after I signed Miguel Veloso for my United side. I played a game where the starting XI featured Veloso, Ronaldo, Nani, Anderson, Rafael and Fabio - all of them speak Portuguese as their first language and yet I was still told that Veloso was having troubles communicating "because of the language barrier" - surely this wouldn't be the case in real life? They'd all just speak Portuguese to each other. Seems a bit odd to me that because my team is in England, he needs to be able to speak English to communicate? Surely if I was playing as Arsenal it'd be more useful for my players to speak French? Does having a number of players who speak the same language actually help with their adaptation at all? Because it doesn't seem to in my experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lankylars Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I suppose the "troubles communicating" applies to when he isn't with those who speak his language (i.e. most of the squad, the coaches, physios, refs, etc); he'd need a translator or something. All this would affect his settling, I imagine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenArsenal Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Learning the language of the 'home' country helps as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rougess Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I've never worried about it tbh, but it would be good to know how much of a difference it makes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal fan 123 Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 i agreed a fee for martin galvan at the start of the first season with arsenal and by the time he came to me he learned english this is such a good feature and i think i just realised it on FM09 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lankylars Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Arsenal fan 123: That's cool he learned English before arrival, but has anyone noticed the reverse? I've had players (Spanish, Hungarian, etc) play for me for years, learn English (not just basic), and once they leave the club they immediately forget it...bizarre.

baz1874 Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 The only thing i have ever noticed, is that if he has a couple of countrymen at the club, and a decent adaptability rating, it dont matter at all, good question though!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sel Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 it also depends on adaptability but if you follow the idea that signing 1 foreign nationality for your team it reduces its affect. Took me a while to realise it but signing argentines for spainish teams is the best because they already speak spanish! If you need to see the adaptability of a player use a scouting tool or editor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
