Who create themselves into the game?

The title explains it all. But what kind of stats you give yourself? Single digit CA which may be realistic or maybe some world beating stats which even Cristiano Ronaldo will envy?

For your info, I just created myself into the game, giving myself a CA of 4. I am trying to be realistic

I did it before but I always give myself ridiculously good attributes.

I'd usually put my PA at -10 and a CA of around 150...

It's extremely unrealistic and It makes it hard if you ever want to leave the club you're managing

This is what I always use to do on FM08 and FM09.

Create a Brazilian 16 year old, call him Tyoldinho (as you do) and shove him in one of the better teams (Sao Paulo or something). Make him a -10 PA player and forget about him.

I would never actually sign him myself, just check how he is doing and where he is and thing at the end of every season.

In one of my saves, he did end up at Chelsea on one save, and then Barca in another. The rest of the times, he ended up in mid-table teams. Always a good player though, cause of his PA!

i sometimes make myself and give myself 1 Ca and 200 PA and watch him develop

But will you even reach 100? It sounds very hard to even reach triple digit! What team you put him in?

I've created my twin 15 year old sons. Given them CA 20 and PA -10 and put them in an anonymous Tier 10 village side. They'll never amount to anything.

do it all the time... but i get bored wit being the worlds best !!!! in a save a few months ago i was ireland and won the world cup...played 7 scored 12 goals .......

but my current save im really injoying. im with MK Dons wit CA 135 PA 175 ..have scored 20 goals in 24 games and earned a call up by ireland .....

Hmm... anyone create themselves weak and see them actually do well?

I either put my self in at Guiseley (I play in their youth team) with 20 CA and -10 PA or at Leeds (depending on which database I use) and have myself at 35 CA and -10 PA, but I rarely use the Leeds one. In one database I have the Guiseley under 15s and another the Guiseley U18s.

In one database I created a rich League 2 club with no players, the lowest reputation in the league and me the only youth player (although it created some newgens). I ended up leaving the youth team for Everton's youth after my team won League 2 for just 200K compensation. I even had myself with favoured club 100 on my created club and I still left. What a ***** I am.

i do the exact same thing except call him tyoldinho lol

Nah...does the game really need a 30 y.o. player with 1 Pace and Stamina?

lol im sorry 2 hear dat mate

I do it all the time

I generally base my stats on players who I play similarly to and then I pick the CA of a random wonderkid in the game and set my PA to 200....jus to see wat'll happen

i do the exact same thing except call him tyoldinho lol

I do the same :D

if I put my self say as CA 200 but PA 0, would my stats stay the top or would they get lesser or would they just be pants?

If the CA is 200, the PA can't be anything other than 200.

If you create yourself as a youth, the AI will tweak down your CA and attributes accordingly, to allow you room to develop.

cheers mate

I have been thinking about making myself in the game for a while now. Probably will do it in my next save!

CA 50 PA 200 Everton Youth and surprisingly I never play myself I only play me in games which aren't important etc haha

i do create my self, with stats that are exaggerated, but i only do so in things which im good at in real life, so im good at heading so good heading stats, poor finishing and penalty irl so give crap attributes for them

I have. I'm a manager.
