[Longest save you have ever done?]

FM18 managing Spurs I got to 2070 before my laptop died and I lost the file. And no, it never got boring. 

[New Laptop/PC Advice -Please Read the Opening Post]

Hey all, I was hoping for a bit of advice. Looking at getting this and wondered if I would be able to run FM20 with one league loaded and 2D/Only Commentary in use. I know it isn't ideal for FM but I need the MacBook for work and wanted to know if I can play these fairly low settings of FM on it? Any advice grateful please 

[4-1-2-3 DM Narrow (3 Advanced Forwards)]

Just wanted to see if anyone had been playing a similar system to mine and what results they got. I'm about 10 seasons into a Tottenham and it took me about 5/6 seasons of tinkering to find the perfect system and get things going.

I have been using the below for a few seasons now and although it is beatable, I am well on the way to becoming dominant for the foreseeable future. It seems like a ball over the top is this year's FM weakness. 

 

                                                          AF-a   AF-a   AF-a

                                                           MEZ-a        AP-s

                                                                    DLP-d

                                                FB-a    BPD-c   BPD-c   FB-a

                                                                   GK-d

 

Mentality: Positive

TI's: Focus Play Through The Middle, Distribute over Opposition Defence, Be More Creative, Extremely Higher Tempo, Counter, Counter Press, Prevent Short GK Distribution. 

I also use a split block for pressing (3 forwards and the mezzala)

I agree  

However, Mbappe is currently spearheading my title challenge in my 5th season. 9 points clear in mid February so it's looking promising! 

My opinion: Buy him at all costs! 

Just to update: Premier League & Champions League double! Mainly thanks to Mbappe's 43 goals!

Just bought him for Tottenham in my 4th season in an extremely lucrative deal involving about 50 clauses lol.

It was £60m up front, £50m in instalments, then another £110m spread over things like winning EPL/CL bonuses etc.

Then he wanted 600k wages and I was capped at 250k so I had to offer loads of incentives there too. 

Hoping it's worth it though as I needed to make a statement and challenge City, United & Liverpool for the title. 3 seasons in and only a League Cup so far

Sorry, just checked back and it was 350k - not 250k.

I play him as my LF in a front three (4-3-3 Narrow) as an Advanced Forward. Also have Kane, Haaland and Lautaro Martinez and they've all been chipping in but Mbappe has cleaned up the most.
