    Oddest careers for decent PA players

    in Football Manager General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by Tbarnes88

    Running a journeyman save and have just won the CL with Hertha against Real Madrid in 2033. Imagine my surprise when squeaky bum-time was started by Adam Idah. Took a look at his career, general Championship/League 1 before absolutely destroying the Italian Leagues with Salernitana and getting a move to Real. Incredible scoring record considering his attributes. Anyone found anything similar?image.thumb.png.e4c1e8a9e3d9fc1710f27fffd56724da.png

    [FM23] Out of Africa. (Spanish out of Morocco to be precise). We will start with Ceuta, but if things go badly I might end up at Melila.

    Jim,

    Here is what I cam up with, and I will admit I am not sure how correct it is, in fact it is mostly guess work:

    More for my own curiosity that anything else, I will also admit I may have gone way to far In the Weeds on this one, or I am reinventing the wheel...or I need to embrace the power of "AND"
    Take a Teams Training Facilities, grade them on a scale of 1 (Poor) to 10 (State of the Art)
    Take Newgen Quality (Limited    =1, Basic=2, Fairly Basic =3, Adequate =4, Good=5, Excellent=6, Great =7, Superb=8) but because we are using a base 10 scale multiply those by 1.25, so Limited = 1.2 and Superb = 10
    Take Youth Recruitment Level (Limited    Basic =1 , Fairly Basic =2, Adequate=3,  etc etc )but because we are using a base 10 scale multiply those by 1.25 as well.
    Youth Rating + Youth Potential / 2 Gives Avg Youth Score
    Overall Youth Score is (Training + NewgenQ)*Youth Recruitment Level
    Overall Rating is Avg Youth Rating * Overall Youth Score (Rounded for ease)
    So, if you Sort by Overall Rating you get this:

    Which at First glance "looks" right, but now I think I am weighing Youth Rating/Potential wrong.  Liefering being the outlier thats causing me to say that.
    What I failed to take into account on this version was the countries investment in soccer.  The other thing think I am looking at wrong is how Youth Recruitment and Youth Rating worked together, and how Training facilities work with Potential. 

    At the end of the day its all guesswork.  Fun guesswork yes, but still guesswork.

    Feels like this is missing a couple of important variables, which is the Youth Rating of a Nation and Club Reputation. Lierfering are not an outlier when you take in to account they have the 2nd best hard values in their nation but at the lower end of the reputation curve. And both them and Salzburg for their lower nation youth rating.

    Best young Spanish talent you can get in fm22 without raiding Barca

    Nico Serrano

    Yeremy Pino

    Try and keep hold of Diaz after loan and give as much game time to Julen Jon G and De La Vibora as you can.

    I've never been able to sell Bale, but Isco and Marcelo are easy enough.

    Get rid of All 3 of Mariano, Jovic and Hazard (if possible on the latter) and focus on youth.

    [FM23] The Haaland - De Bruyne combo is ridiculous

    Wow, AI Man City gets 54 goals out of him? Madness! The guy is obviously broken 😅

    But those 46 goals for Isak is an impressive achievement! Crazy that with Haaland around that's still not enough to win the top scorer awards.

    I know right! I would agree that he's broken but for the fact he's doing it in real life :lol: Previous FM's I've struggled to see any AI top scorers getting more than 20-25 (including Haaland).

    An interesting factoid is that they signed Borja Valero for the 2021-2022 season.

    An interesting fact is that the word "factoid" means an item of unreliable information that is reported and repeated so often that it becomes accepted as fact.

    However in America (and now Britain too sigh) it is so often wrongly used as an alternative for "fact" that it is slowly gaining a second meaning as a synonym of Fact. 

    Making both meanings of the word entirely contradict each other.

    Schrödinger's Factoid if you will.

    Anyway...FOOTBALL!

    And with that the save is over. Probably could have won all the big prizes this Jan.

    No replies but I had fun writing this all up. If anyone would like me to continue this save with another absolute legend then I'm happy to sign them up and continue.

    Just before the final against Inter he signed new terms. I'm hoping this means we'll get another season out of him.

    Steffan, Gundogan, Ake & Jesus have all used these few days to state they wish to leave. Feels like a bug they wouldn't wait until after the CL final as none of their poor morale backsides are going to see the pitch now.
