That's my mistake as I forgot to edit the appearance of the sidebar in the last update after I fixed the sidebar with 85% zoom option. And as I'm not using the custom backgrounds, I couldn't see it because I have everything with the same dark colour.
Both download link and the steam workshop item was updated.
Thank you for pointing this out.
Perfect, this has fixed it!
Thank you.

Hi,
I've looked in there, downloaded the two add ons that people have already edited and tried to make my own using the advice in there but I just can't seem to get it to work with this skin. I get a solid side bar with no buttons.
Thanks for linking though.

Hi,
Firstly what a superb skin.
Used your FM21 skin and happy you've released for this year.
I also use the stadium background pack, and have noticed this year that the sidebar is transparent and as such, isn't working great for me.
There's a thread in here about how to make the sidebar solid, and I've extracted your skin and tried to make a couple of amendments to it (for personal use) to have a solid sidebar (or in a more ideal situation, a slightly translucent sidebar). So far, I've had no joy and I just end up with a solid sidebar but with no buttons at all. I'm absolutely not an expert!
Any advice at all?

anything in particular?
To jump on the back of his post - your scouting card is superb.

@majesticeternityNot sure if this has been picked up on already, but your links in Post 1 go to the FM20 version of this mod, which is possibly why some people are having difficulty in using it in FM21?
Look forward to using this mod - looks like another worldy from you.

I am trying to decide on my long term save for this year. Main challenge is to stay with the club for 20 years and achieve 10 manager of year awards. So far the shortlist is:
-Queens Park in Scotland League 2
-Palermo/Monopoli/Bari in Italy Serie C
-1860 Munchen in Germany Liga 3
-Le Mans or Red Star in France Nacional
-Dulwich Hamlet in England Van South
Any thoughts?
For what it’s worth I completed 6 seasons as 1860 on the Beta. Really enjoyed it. 2 seasons in 3.Liga, 3 seasons in 2.Bundesliga and 1 season in Bundesliga. Club built me a new stadium in time for the 6th season (although was only an upgrade from 15k-20k) and I had a really strong academy.
highly recommend them.

Looks great. Thanks

Hi all,
Apologies if this is the wrong place. Is it possible to have different custom views as a standard for your squad, and other teams' squads?
For example, I want mine to be more stat/selection heavy, but want other teams to be more scouting focussed (release fees etc.)
I can't seem to find a way to do this - is it possible?

Game: FM 2020
Type of Game: Career
Age: 33
Timezone: UK
When you can play: Twice a week - evenings (would be looking for sort of 6-8hrs a week, but looking for a long term game)
Steam Username: Shorno33
Bit of background, I used to play a lot of FMO, can't remember what game it was exactly but I played in the General Discussion online game for a few seasons with the likes of JediMonkey and DezMW. Used to be involved in the 'FM Scene' quite a bit, and was an Admin over at Susie for a while.
Played since the CM97/98 days, but not really been involved in the online stuff for a good few years. Eager to get involved in an online game with one, maybe two people who are of a similar age with similar life circumstances (full time job, kids, wife). Unfortunately my days of playing FM for 8hrs a day are long gone!

So I'm a few games in to my second season as Aston Villa. I walked the league and gained promotion, but over the summer I noticed what I feel are some 'strange' managerial moves;
- Unai Emery sacked by Arsenal mid December (they were doing okay so you could kinda forgive this) but still think it was a bit soon?
- Rafa Benitez replacing him - Fair enough, not too odd.
- Lopetequi & Valverde sacked at the end of the season, replaced by Ancelotti & Max Allegri respectively - Barca/Madrid did finish 3/4 so again, understandable.
- Pep Guardiola leaving City for Juventus to replace Allegri. Klopp replacing Pep at City - this is where it gets a bit unusual for me.
- Wenger coming in as manager of Liverpool.
- Tuchel sacked at PSG for finishing 2nd - replaced by Conte. Fair.
Then to add to this, we have basically every big team overhauling their squads.
- United (who kept Mourinho on surprisingly) signed Adrien Silva and Camacho in the first summer, Silva not getting a game now and Camacho loaned out. They signed Icardi in Jan, and Kane in the summer. As well as Benatia, Ndidi, Tierney and Suso.
- Liverpool sold Mane and Matip to Madrid for about £120m
- City have signed Weigl, Jonas Hector, Zaha (in 18/19) and Varane, Gaya and Ramsey this summer. All whilst only loaning out Mahrez and Gundogan.
There are more 'unrealistic' (imo of course) transfers - Arsenal have gone a bit wild - but these are a few little examples. As well as this, and one thing that kills me is United have changed a load of squad numbers. Pogba 14, Herrera 10, Lukaku 15, Rashford 16.
Does this seem a tad unrealistic to anybody else or am I over-exaggerating? I get that teams replaced managers due to poor positions - but would Pep leave City for Juve at the end of this season? Would Klopp likely go to City? Would United spend £200m on two world class strikers to compete with Lukaku? Would all of this happen in such a short space of time?

I messed up my career mode set up and had to start from scratch. What a wonderful surprise it was to see that previous playable league settings were saved! Didn't take long to notice something nice quality of life improvements

Yeah I'm gonna give that a try tonight. I've got Dani Carvajal sat behind Walcott and I was going for the 'throw everything up the right wing' approach, but with Gibbs/Monreal (especially Monreal) I think I could get a lot more success with him pushing forward to overlap the tucking Cazorla.
Stupid question, but is it possible to set my left back to look for the overlap, without having my right back do it too? Cos with my AMR literally pegging the opposition left back very deep, I don't want Carvajal looking to overlap into no space and leaving a massive gap at the back?
Previously I've always played pretty balanced formations when using attacking wing backs (both wingers on support) and never really tried to push one up with one staying back, so not sure if it can be done just with player instructions alone?

What a ridiculously good guide.
Up until wwfan's FM13 twelve step guide, I was an absolute amateur when it came to the tactical side of things.
Far too caught up on the definition of a word like attacking, control and overload - and not thinking about the other aspects of it.
In FM13 I learnt so much from the guides and support on this forum, actually started paying attention to the finer details and geting my teams to play how I want them to.
This just takes all that onto another level. A fantastic guide to pairs and combinations. I have got a save at the moment with Arsenal, and I play a 4-2DM-3-1 setup, with a similar system to you llama3.
I generally play:
Balanced, Standard, Higher Tempo, Pass Into Space and Direct Passing.
WB (A) - CD (D) - CD (D) - FB (S)
--------RGA (S) - BWM (D)
--W (A) ----- T (A) ------ AP (S)
-------------AF (A)
My system is still very much a work in progress (midway through second season) and I'm enjoying tweaking little bits each week to see how something else works. I'm definitely gonna try and incorporate some of your advice, and swich my wing back/full back to link with the wide players in front of them, and I'm gonna consider some of the other stuff to try and retain possession a bit more, cos that's one of my biggest struggles. I win a lot of matches, but I don't get much possession, which I would like to work on to be honest.
Thanks a lot for your guide tho, it's brilliant!

FM24 - PC/Laptop advice thread *** PLEASE READ OPENING POST BEFORE POSTING ***
in Football Manager General Discussion
Posted
Hello all,
I'm in the market for a new laptop for FM24, and other games.
Games I play regularly:
- FM23 (FM24)
- Planet Zoo
- Cities: Skylines
- Cyberpunk 2077
- Fallout 4
- Red Dead Redemption
Budget is around £1200 realistically. I've got a HP Omen which I bought in 2017 which has the following in it:
- Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz 2.81 GHz
- 16GB Ram
- Nvidia GTX 1050
It plays most games on fairly decent specs but not fantastic so I'd be hoping for a fairly substantial upgrade if I'm gonna buy something new.
I don't really know much about laptops beyond the basics so appreciate any suggestions / help.
Cheers!
