I've just literally loaded FM24 for the first time, decided to start as Lille and in "your world" mode. The team still has Carlos Baleba (correct) but the transfer budget is a POSITIVE 36M€. Eh? Shouldn't it be the other way around? Looks like I have both the player and the cash for selling the player.

I get that it's easier to debug an issue with the specific conditions it happened in, but if this is a widespread issue as it seems like it's been forever, holidaying a game isn't very hard. This is a large game balance issue, it shouldn't need specific users to send savegames, it should be noticeable in any internal test savegames. -

We've complained about this as far back as FM17 ffs. -

Honestly that's crap, there's far too few regen players on those squads, which is a red flag given regens are everyone in the game world below the age of 25 at that stage. There's always this clear cut-off point between real players and regen players and how squads are built around them which just breaks immersion. The transition between them just isn't seamless enough.- 176 replies

Starting the 2nd season. Transfer deals: The new faces: A new club record signing that arrives due to his potential and versatility. If all goes to plan, should hold down a place in the squad for a decade. Poborsky was not a success for Utd but Hlozek should have everything to be one. More of a goalscoring winger whereas Poborsky was more of a classic winger, Hlozek can cover both wings and also play upfront. Was already here last year on loan, I bought him. To compare to Ronny Johnsen who was more of a defender than a DM is a stretch, but Normann is more of a defensive player than an attacking one, although he can do quite a bit of everything in midfield, we've been using him as DLP. However, he'll have competition... Sir Alex Ferguson's skill in identifying quality Brazilian players was not great, but much like Poborsky, Anderson did shine in the Portuguese league. Danilo has everything to surpass Anderson's achievements in the Premier League, as a superb all-round midfielder, albeit he's best suited for the DM DLP role we use. Sir Alex only bought Brazilians for the fullback and midfield positions, and that's what we're doing here. Abner is not quite a superstar player but covers in a much needed position as Brendon Williams' loan ran out. Was a no-brainer as he arrived on a free transfer. For now I will retain Tim Krul as starter because Krul had such a great season last year, but my staff already think Sam is better. Start to the season: Okay given the tricky calendar. Liverpool are Liverpool and Chelsea have just bough Mbappé, who scored twice. The Champions League group seems fun. Norwich in the Champions League just sounds wrong. Current squad: Winger/midfielder Todd Cantwell and goalkeeper Aston Oxborough return from loans to increase the total of academy players in the squad from 2 to 4.

End of my season 1 At one stage it looked like we handed over the final CL spot to Leeds by losing to them, but then we went on a run whilst Spurs fell apart and Leeds lost momentum. Beating City away was a highlight and suddenly we were fighting with Man Utd not just for a CL spot but for 3rd. We lost in the final day to champions Liverpool but with Utd losing to Chelsea the same day as well, we did get 3rd. Squad stats and best 11: Best players: 1. (A)Max Aarons - Confirmed his hype with 10 assists and highest rating in the squad. 2. (A)Adam Idah - Top scorer on 16 goals and similar rating. Super satisfying to have our 2 academy players be the best 2 players in the squad. 3. Pierre Lees-Melou - A surprise, I didn't really rate him but he took to the mezzala role really well, 8 goals 8 assists. 4. Mathias Normann - Quality season as DLP, I'm considering activating the 12.75M€ optional fee. 5. Tim Krul - Pretty damn high ratings for a keeper.
