@Wolf_pd For my own project (just creating a new world map for now) I changed and changed again, a lot. Interesting nations and cultures where added and removed again, before I was satisfied with the results. Took me weeks and hundreds of hours of reading and recoloring the map. But it was great fun! 😀

OK, then I'll use the new one. Thanks! Saw in the Doc it has a significant higher percentage too. I am so very curious to see what those 3 world class strikers will do together. Hopefully I have some time tomorrow to find out

@knap Is the new WOF 433 PSG already better than the one you advised for Sesko/Mbappe/Haaland, or just different? This WHEELS OF FIRE 433 PSG P110 CC vs WHEELS OF FIRE 433 N PSG 112 ALL CUPS Thank you very much for creating so many high quality tactics. 😀👍 Do you even have time left to enjoy the game for yourself?

I think they set it up as a direct transfer. It's the Susie Live Update btw. which is updated daily.

Thank you very much knap! Gonna try that one. 😃

As I already use a very good transfer update, it would be a double for me. Couldn't that be a recipe for issues?

I like symmetrical tactics. I'm not sure if Mbappé should be used as an winger, or striker. Genie Scout recommends him being a striker. What do you think? I find it hard to decide what tactic I should chose, so I looked at "score" in your sheet and compared that with winning the CL and having an high GD. Perhaps ME23.2BEOWULFKnapBALSP424IFVOLP104ALLCPS (but "only 88.8" score) with Mbappé hanging on the left, Haaland and Sesko in front and Havertz hanging on the right. Or WHEELS OF FIRE 4312 N PSG P114 CC but with the AMC deleted and an extra striker to get a line of 3. Would those work well with Mbappe, Haaland and Sesko? Edit: I looked at the shape of the formation, not at the roles. Most often, I like 4-3-3 alike shapes/tactics the best.

@knap My first season with PSG (2026-27) was great. Winning the Ligue 1 was pretty easy and also won the French Cup (the Supercup was won by the manager before me). Champions League competion phase was 8 wins in 8 matches. Lost in the next round vs Spurs though. I used ME23.2BEOWULFKnapBALTIG4231IFVOLP101ALLCUPS as my tactic. Put it in all 3 tactic slots and only changed mentality 2 higher (to atticking) en 2 lower (2 defending) in slot 2 and 3. Played all matches with auto result. Benjamin Sesko scored 55 club goals this season. Mbappé scored 31 club goals. Now I signed Haaland on a free transfer from Manchester City. I would like to have all 3 of them on the pitch. Would you use a system with 2 strikers (Haaland, Sesko) and an AML (Mbappé) or a system with 3 strikers to have them play together, and to wreak mayhem in the Ligue 1 and Champions League?

You mean like already is possible with photo/drawing programs such as Photoshop? that could be great for people with bigger monitors or multi display setups

Thanks! Yes, that would be awesome too. Now you have to make sure that person one didn't use Ireland or CIS as it's base if you mix and match editor files by different creators. Just easy "click to create new nation" → "click to become part of continent" → "drag and drop cups/leagues" would be ver nice.

A few things come to mind 1. Women's Football. With the women's game gaining more popularity each year, it would be an awesome addition to have that in FM too! 2. Add new nations: Japan, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, DR Congo, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Mali, New Zealand, Saudi-Arabia (manage Ronaldo or Benzema), Qatar, UAE, Thailand, Vietnam, Iran, Philippines, Costa Rica, Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Cuba, T&T, Surinam, Jamaica, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Boliva, Ecuador, Paraguay, Venezuela, Estonia, Lithuania. (Yes I would play there. Past years, since FM18 I've managed 50+ seasons in smaller leagues like in Afghanistan, Phillipines, New Zealand, South-Korea, Serbia, Romania, Solomon Islands, etc) 3. Make more historical facts from you savegame available for us to see. In short: there is a ton of information in Football Manager that the game knows, but we can't see. It would be great if there is a special history tab where you can see things like: the club to which you lost/won most matches; your all-time goal scorers top 10 in your career, your most selected player per position on the pitch; the top 20 transfers in and out in your career, etc. See: 4. Re-introduce the drag and drop pitch again. More than a decade ago you could drag and drop all players on the pitch in relation to where the ball was depending on offensive or defensive situations. Perhaps all player roles and instructions do the same, but I really liked that option when setting up a tactic. If the ball was for example in "grid X" you could place each and every player in a position that you felt was the best. It gave a lot of freedom to create lines, triangles, spaces and offside traps. 5. Create editor templates for new competitons (leagues and cups) where you could just select options from a list, or drag and drop them and the game tells you what options are left/missing/needed. This would make creating competitions a lot easier for beginners. Edit: 6: More clubs signing managers en more different winners of the European cups. In real life every club tries to find a new manager when the last one is sacked or moved to another club. In FM many clubs don't appoint a new manager ever. The consequence is that teams without a manager sign less players and cannot reach the finals of a European continental cup and cannot win those cups. Only once in a while there is an exception to this. I wrote about this here: 7. In addition to the above, I would like to see a more dynamic club strength index based on a combination of history, coëfficients, current reputation and ELO for example. I hope this gives a team more chance to grow above a specific reputation/strength level and become active again, (See link at #6) instead of being inactive for decades. There are websites that rank all teams and nations by their ELO rating. Like here http://www.eloratings.net/ and here https://footballdatabase.com/ranking/world/1 More about ELO here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system and here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Football_Elo_Ratings Would it be possible to automaticly use these scores for the strength index that a nation or club has in FM so that we have a more dynamic starting grid? And after your game is created let the game dynamicly change the strenght index based on whatever happens in the savegame world. This could all influence things like the expected league finish, xG, winning odds in the CL, board appreciation, who is your angstgegner in continental football (opponents to whom one has lost before and who therefore inspires fear), will players go to a smaller team that has a good plan for the future and outperformed this season, etc. For example Feyenoord and Roma played the Conference League final. Their European adventure boosted their points. When teams like Ajax, Juventus, Atlético and Barcelona get kicked out early, they lose points for their ELO / strength index. Winning adds points, losing removes points. Etc. Perhaps coëfficents and reputation do already all those things, but when looking to #6 I feel we really need more dynamical clubs. 8. Better best XI's. Messi, Ronaldo, Pelé, Maradonna and Cruijff should be in best XI's for a very long time, and not be replaced by a yout player that has 7 goals and 11 assists in his first season. If a new player finally deserves his place amongst the goat's, it would be nice to see why he is there, and who he replaced. Just my 2 cents, on an already fabulous game

Congrats on becoming head researcher @Robbles Quin ®™ Hope this means we get to see more of Japan in future FM versions

I have Havertz, Neymar (age 34), Smith Rowe, Mbappé, and Sesko

It's my fifth season. I just changed jobs from Ajax to PSG and inherited Sesko. He is scoring a lot too. If I could use them together that would be nice, but I can use Sesko as backup too, ofcourse.

Wat is the best position for Mbappé? Striker or AML? I am using ME23.2BEOWULFKnapBALTIG4231IFVOLP101ALLCUPS, but have Sesko too. My assistent choses Mbappe as AML. I could convert to the 424 Beowolf ofcourse, but I like the 4231.

Looks very good @Wolf_pd

So they're setup to have less width, but the overlap creates new width?

@knap So in the end it is more a matter of personal taste? When I look at the league table they both perform very well. I like wide playing tactics that use the complete width and/or length of the pitch. So that would suggest the IW verson, if I understand you correctly. You have made so many great tactics to chose from. Everytime I have decided for one, you already created a handful more 😁😁

@knap Which one of these is the preferable one? Or is it only difference in style and not quality per se? or

This looks very attacking, Is it only suitable for the best teams in the league?

If we don't look for wide midfielders and look for something more symmetrical? Just a 433 alike tactic where both wingbacks and wingers give the crosses? Do you have a good one for that? Perhaps ME23.2BEOWULFKnapBALTIG4231IFVOLP101ALLCUPS?

Do you have something with very good performance that has fullbacks running forward, wide midfielders going inside and wingers that cross and score? Like Erik Ten Hag? (And Van Gaal and Cruiff before him) I want to play with Ajax, and after that Bayern, Liverpool, Real and Benfica, before returning to Ajax again

@knap What is your favorite 4-3-3 alike (41221, 451, etc) tactic, which has beautful wing play?

I used filters for the spreadsheet. Am I correct that this is the king right now ? This one performs a bit less, but has won more prizes I will use that tactic for a long time career from bottom teams in a lower division to top teams in their respective continental champions leagues on different continents. Will these tactics perfom best for that use? I am fond of tactics that use wingers.

Thanks! I hope they'll consider making this
