YesYesOhYay Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I know because me and my mate did it on FM 07- If you are an International manager, then you can pick yur under 21 and under 18 manager, because I did it with my friend I think at the start of the game you should be aable to pick the under 21/ 18 teams to manage and work your way up that way- like Stuart Pearce.

canvey!! Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 You can - when in the new manager screen (but not the wizard), click on the country in the Nations list, then select either the under 21 or under 19 team, and click "Control Team". Voila! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB11 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Just add a new user and give yourself the under 21s job, then retire the other manager and attempt to work your way up like that. That is what I am doing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 There are also two ways to control the U21's and U19's when you have already started a game: 1.) Simply Apply for it if it's vacant, using the same way as above, go to the nation's under 21 team and click Apply for Job. 2.) If there's no vacancy, you can add a 'dummy' manager to that nation, fire the u21/u19 manager, then just appoint your own manager (and retire the dummy afterwards). The only con is that this isn't totally realistic and the nation will need to find a new senior manager. However there is one fatal flaw in FM, I don't think U23 "Olympics" team has their own managers, whereas in real life most nations appoint an individual manager to take the Olympics team to glory rather than letting the senior manager take control like it is in FM. Also, every nation should have their own U23 squad even if it's empty most of the time, rather than having one created WHEN the Olympic games arrive. This is so that you can arrange friendlies for the U23 squad to test formations and prepare them for the Games. Hopefully in FM 2009 this is sorted out.
