Yeah this would be my biggest issue with it. A tournament takes about 2 seasons to process through. If you are a big nation then the qualifiers are boring squash matches. The actual tournament are fun but a tedious build up to it Whenever I have done international management I’ve always had a club as well to help pass the time until the tournaments

I have played a few save’s and Arteta always stays long at Arsenal in them all. Whenever he was close to the sack he’d win the FA Cup or Europa League. Pep is a lot more dominant to. Klopp always seems to go to Madrid after Ancelotti leaves. No issues for me

Oh yes that 20% salary decrease clause. Does the game support that clause? Would love to have it for my team but I say it would be a tough ask to get the players to accept a clause like that. They would just want a much higher base salary

After a scary amount of hours played, I haven’t once lost a three goal lead.

I had this in my Serie A save to. The break was used for extra international games. Not sure if it’s going to happen next year in real life either

I am getting killed with short throws. I did have a laugh though when I got a short throw in the final third and thought to myself finally I’m going to get a goal like this. I ended up getting tackled and counter attacked for an opposition goal

Tried so many times to get inverted full back and Libero to work but was getting hammered. I have gone back to a basic 442 with default roles mostly attacking with wingers. I’m old school and proud of it

My game feels faster than fm 23 as well. On 2 star, the processing of the days feels a lot smoother

Started a save as Man Utd and I’m losing a lot. My initial thoughts is that it’s most realistic FM yet

It’s clearly today. 100% confident

Yeah I’d say it’s safe to assume around the same. FM25 will be the big jump so interested to see the requirements there

Really liking the look of this year’s game. My final wish is to fix the fitness levels during club World Cup /international competitions. I think international football can be completely revamped but that would have been a headline feature so will settle for just fixing the fitness levels

From today’s update it looks like they are fixing extreme player reactions. One of the biggest pain points last few years

Before the Ronaldo deal there was probably not enough demand. Since then it’s exploded with transfers. It would logically make sense to add the league because they are seemingly going to be a big part of the transfer window going forward. The part I’d be in the dark about would be the logistics behind adding it, licensing, research etc. I am not sure how long that takes

Yep just saw it now. Fantastic stuff.
