I would imagine that it involves

Really struggling to find a formation that works for Peterborough here. Getting the best out of Maddison (arguably the best player in the division) is proving difficult.

Look at the U21/23 squads of the Premier League/Championship teams. There's normally a few good players that are released but you have to wait for them to actually leave before you can sign them. The Irish/Scottish leagues also normally have some good players who you can agree a pre-contract with.

Great to see this up and running! Will be starting my yearly Posh save soon. Extremely pleased that Maddison signed a new deal irl, otherwise he would've been very hard to hold onto.

Great to see this up and running, massive kudos to @Jogo Bonito! As usual I shall be managing the mighty Peterborough United, looking forward to seeing how everyone else does in the EFL.

Would also love to see a 17 thread! I would make one but I really don't have the time

Are Gold Coast United from Australia in this?

Is there anyway to add the Simulate Match option to it as well?

Finished the season in 11th place, Erhun Oztumer taking both the league's and fans' Player of the Season awards. Then in the offseason a takeover happened. Then I got sacked. Urgh. Time to start another new save! Really enjoyed York so may go again with them.

I'm at York. Doing really well so far, 6th in the league after 24 and I have two games in hand after some postponements. Second-best defence in the league with only 21 conceded - signed Ricardo Santos on loan from Posh and he's a rock.

For those of you in League 2, if you can afford Erhun Oztumer from Posh, do it. I signed him for £16.5k and 16 games into the season he has 9 assists with an average rating of 7.89 and 6 POM awards. He's been absolutely brilliant, wages are at £1k a week but hes worth every penny. Currently got him playing in AMC in a wide diamond formation and he just runs the show every game pretty much.

Merry Christmas to all my fellow Football League FMers!

Realised I wasn't exactly specific there. I've taken a look at York and I'm considering them - especially with Josh Carson (who was an absolute beast for me in FM15 when I signed him for Posh) still there. Will take a look at Barnet and Stevenage also and see how I feel.

I agree, I would much prefer a bit of a long-term thing. Don't get me wrong, it's great getting to the PL within 3 seasons but it just feels so unrealistic. In terms of teams I'm looking at, I don't really know where to begin. I'd like to try and play fast, counter-attacking football and have a team of players that maybe aren't the best technically, but give 110% for 90 minutes. Any ideas?

Thinking of going down to League 2 to be honest. Tried every version to have a decent save with someone in League 2 but it always ends badly, let's give it another go.
