Fair enough if you think there's too many but it's completely ridiculous to say Villa and Bournemouth would be unrealistic. I don't think there are any teams I'd consider to be unrealistic for a takeover, at all, anywhere.
Except they are. I’m two seasons in. I’d say it’s very unrealistic to suggest Bournemouth will have new owners having gotten new owners less than a year ago. Or in the case of villa where the club are flying, owners are very wealthy and have heavily invested. It’s quite obvious some clubs are far less likely to have a takeover than others. There’s not really a point to argue here.

What is with this game and ‘takeovers’. Every five minutes there’s a takeover. Even at completely unrealistic clubs like Villa and Bournemouth. Really needs to be toned down.

I've been having it with players who are 2-3 weeks into their loans, as well as with players getting the most game time in their position as possible but being recalled (without an inbox item to discuss it with the manager of the loanee's club), in particular this happened with a striker I had on loan who played basically every minute he was eligible for and after 24 games and 17 goals he was recalled because I've been playing him as a PF and not an AF? I get that it's in the contract when you loan a player but I didn't recieve any complaints from his club until the point when he was recalled (he has been used as a PF or DLF the entire year) , it seems like managers either get upset at loan terms almost immediately or don't at all for a lengthy period and then you're suprised with a loan player getting recalled out of nowhere.
Without question one of the worse things ever brought into FM.
The whole demanding a loaned player plays in a specific role (pressing forward etc)Like it’s beyond stupid and something unimaginable in real life. Just imagine the convo in real life.
Pep “ Hi ‘insert human manager name’ I’ve noticed that whilst Phill Bobb has played 30/30 league games this season I’ve noticed that when he plays up front he tackles harder and closes down more, could he not do that and instead just move into channels and if not I’ll have to recall him”.
How this is still included in the game is truly staggering.11 -
Not sure if this is the right place to put it but major announcement by the FA today which is a ‘game changer’ literally…
Got me thinking how would this work in football manager games going forward and could it even be implemented in this current one via editing.
Basically all Premier League and football league clubs will now be allowed to sign a small number of players who fail the current work permit requirements. Presumably this bypasses those requirements and they can play anyway.

♦️ Version 4.1 of my #FM21 update packs is up!
Info about what's included in each file: Updatesbypr0
Transfers included from: FMTransferUpdate
Changelog: [4.1] Changelog
Next release date: 20 June
EU Spots have been altered. There are still some bugs that I am trying to fix. For example I can't add the 5th team from Spain. Please be patient as I am trying to find a solution on that. Also Europa Conference starts only on the 2nd season in the game. So, most of the teams from Conference will be found in Europa League.
There is no solution unfortunately without ****ing everything else up

**An early summer date update for those itching for next season**
LINK --------------------- https://www.mediafire.com/file/nh5oznmjmgq2etr/June_4th_2021.fmf/file
(NO ATTRIBUTES ALTERED WHATSOEVER)
Major transfers and managerial changes done.
NOTE - I have done the majority of major transfers across Europe (Alaba, Aguero etc) many transfers at a lower level will be missing however.
> I have terminated many loans but kept some of those with options to buy as many clubs are currently still in the middle of negotiations in real life. For example, Moise Kean at PSG. The five major leagues have been updated more than the others.> All last seasons injuries removed.
> Loans removed where applicable.
Promotions and relegations done through the majority of European Leagues.
NOTE - Some leagues have yet to play out their promotion playoff fixtures (Spain being one) and so for the moment I have placed the team who finished 3rd in the second tier into la liga (although they lost their first leg 3-0
). This will be changed with further updates. Secondly the Turkish and Russian leagues are playing with a different number of teams next season in their top division and so there's a discrepancy there too.
League and Cup history changed for most European countries to show all of this seasons competition winners.
NOTE - Unlike previous FM series which automatically altered Super Cup fixtures based on cup winners history. This FM chooses to ignore this and so for example the Super cup will not be Chelsea/Villarreal but rather still Bayern/Sevilla. The community shield is still Arsenal/Liverpool etc. I believe it’s hard coded into the game as I haven't been able to find a work around.
European competition entries fixed for the 2021/2022 season including lesser nations like Armenia, Israel etc. Champions League entries for 2021/2022 complete to at least 95% accuracy.
NOTE - There is no Europa conference League. Every team who qualified for this upcoming seasons Europa Conference I have placed in the Europa League.
NOTE - I was unable to put five Spanish teams in the CL and so placed Villarreal in the CL and Sevilla into the Europa League.Known/deliberate errors- The game was overriding one of my Spanish and Belgian Europa League selections. For some reason it was placing the seasons domestic cup runners up in the Europa League. In order to fix this I altered the runners up of the Spanish and Belgian Cup in 2021 to have the correct teams placed in the Europa League and so in the history of those cups you will notice an incorrect runner up for the 2021 season.
Added a number of local derbies and rivalries to the database. Minor alterations of club reputations to improve realism.
Altered a number of recent high profile national team declarations . Laporte, Hannibal etc.
End of season retirements done***I did this update entirely myself and so there are going to be many gaps. Anything major missed let me know and I'll alter it. **** Well maybe, I do intend on playing it at the moment....

Check if there are registered teams. For the European cups that is probably the case. Not sure about the English competition, but could be the case there as well.
Gave that a go, no teams registered. Looks like it’s hard coded into the game as I completely removed arsenals fa cup 2020 win yet they still had the community shield fixture.

Posted this wrongly elsewhere ... wonder if anyone knows a work round here
So I’ve done some test editing with a summer update in mind.
So I’ve changed league/cup winners but unlike previous FM’s where the ‘Super Cup’ fixture automatically changes based on the last competition winner. In this FM this isn’t happening.
For Example. I’ve changed the last PL and FA Cup winner to Man City and Chelsea respectively. However when I start a save I am still getting the Arsenal/Liverpool fixture from the previous season as the community shield (super cup)
Same thing happened when I altered the CL and EL winner yet still had Bayern/Sevilla super cup game.
Never had this issue in previous FM’s. Is there something new that needs to be done to implement these changes?

Yeah this could affect fixtures.
Does this happen on saves without custom files?
I’ve never played a save without a custom file.

Has the AMC issue within the current ME been recognised as an issue officially or more what some ppl are finding based on certain tactics etc?
I’ve been playing this game since 2006 and I have never been able to get the AMC player to get good ratings and play well
I abandoned the role a few years back. Brought it back recently because got bored of 442 and I see nothing has changed.

Are you using any custom files eg real name fixes?
Thanks,Luke
Yep. Would that have an effect?
I use the real name fix and do some minor database editing myself.0 -

Can you go on a North American tour but just choose to play US teams?
Nope. Only gives you a select few options
0 -
Basically, over the years in FM if you’re a championship team or below you’re limited to where you can tour.
Does anyone know a work around for this?I used to think it was because of money but then the game allows you to go on a ‘North American’ tour but you can’t go on a US tour.
Championship teams have been touring America for a few years now in real life so I’d like to see si relax this apparent hardcoded rule.
Until then though, is there a work around anyone knows?

Happens sometimes with Olympics at the start of a season, too, though that's more understandable. There should be a mechanism in place to prevent this. It seems like exactly the sort of bug SI can and should fix.
Yuh Olympics is fine. And yeah you’d like to think there was something that can be done but the fact this has been an issue since FM 2008, must mean it’s very hard to fix because the alternative is that it’s basically being ignored.

I don’t think this is a bug SI can fix.
A good work around for this is to use the in game editor to change a players nationality then immediately change it back. He will become available again for your squad and then for the future still be chosen for future internationals So no knock on effect basically.0 -
As above.
Opening day of the season and there's three major local derbies being played. Not so sure these are 'random'. Millwall/West Ham, Newcastle/Sunderland and Forest/Derby on the same day, the opening day at that. Dunno if any mods can summarise this but I'm quite curious how fixtures are generated season by season? And what would cause something like this to happen?
File uploaded as to cloud as "multiple derby matches on opening day'
Must also add Cardiff/Bristol City

Oh, for sure. I'm not saying this isn't an issue - it's the main reason why I'm still holding off starting my long-term save. But the points I made about ratings last week still stand: they are subjective, so it's very difficult (if not impossible) to get them spot-on.
Anyway, the main point of my post today is that some FMers are holding SI to ridiculously high standards, and that they'll always be disappointed when those standards aren't met.
There will always be bugs in the game - some bigger than others. If we want FM21's bigger bugs to be squashed in this game cycle, it's better to report them through the official channels than just sulk about them. The last thing any of us need is for this feedback thread to degenerate into another sulkathon.
I agree some people hold SI to a ridiculously high standard and there are some complaints I see and just think “don’t they know this is a game”.
But, and it’s a big but, the point about reporting bugs through the official channels is great and all but when you see the same minor bug from FM 12 in FM 21 then it does leave a bit of a feeling that actually the powers that be aren’t taking on board feedback.
I made an admittedly sulky post about the players being pulled away from a cup final to play in meaningless international games bug. My issue wasn’t so much the bug, it’s easily fixed with the in game editor.
My issue was this was a bug reported and I reported it in fm 12. I again did it in FM 19. And numerous others have been reporting it for years and it just clearly gets ignored.This is not something as complex as the match engine or AI behaviour. It is a very simple thing and it seems to be a problem every single year. I don’t understand how and why.
The same for the Christmas/new year English league scheduling. I don’t really get how after several years of numerous people reporting the same thing it isn’t amended. If it’s actually more complicated and is tough to fix than maybe that can be explained ?

I’ve played 3 save games now and Leicester have been relegated in the 2nd season every game!
Just wondering if anyone else had this on their game as every time I look at their squad I wonder how they go down.Yuh, happened in my save. They still had most of their stars too. I think it’s Brendan Rodgers.
Even in the last Fm Leicester were horrible and Rodgers would always get sacked. He’d get replaced by a no mark manager and then relegation follows.

How do I push more players forward into the box for set pieces. I seem to only attack corners with 4/5 players and there doesn’t appear to be a way to change or alter that. Or am I missing something?
