@Harper PS I also just signed Taylor from Celtic as a backup LB

@Harper Some great transfer business there, dude - Thuram has been on my radar too, I follow the Bundesliga IRL & he looks very good. His team mate Alassane Pléa looks decent, too.
Castrovilli has also been on my radar.
I'm resigning Ramsey in Jan 2021 for £16M and on £90K a week which I got right down from what he was asking for initially

Quick tip for those starting an Arsenal save. Ask the board to renegotiate the affiliation with Colorado. Currently it's not set up as a commercial relationship and is an easy way to get that commercial link without wasting an affiliated club request.
Nice one, I'll go that a go, cheers.

Are you guys still getting the 'cold shoulder' from players when you sell someone?
I did when I sold Xhaka but that soon went. I've decided to sell Mari in January '21 and that hasn't gone down too well with 3 players, but they're 3 players I'm not massively fussed about, so it's been alright.

£35m from Utd in January. He'd been pretty good for me, but wasn't getting the game time and I wanted the money to use elsewhere
Oh wow, I was expecting about half that! I'd snap their hand off for £35M.

At least on FM we can sell the idiots continually letting us down. Imagine Arteta could get more than £100m for Xhaka, Mustafi, WIllian and Kolasinac like I did in my game!
Hi @lomekian when did you sell Willian & how much did you get? He's been ok for me so far but little injuries are frustrating - Nelson has been very good for me - he's playing as I loaned Pepe to Man United.

I'm pretty sure you have to manually remove them from the transfer list via "set transfer status"
Good afternoon mate, I've tried that but I'm unable to do so.

Hello all, AMN is a funny/frustrating one...
He requested a transfer - I accepted - Bellerin injured - AMN comes in, plays well - I offer him a new contract (which was the initial reason for requesting a transfer) - he accepts - he's still transfer listed & I'm being asked questions about that in every press conference.
It's weird, not sure if it's a bug or something or he's just being a wally.
Has anyone else had similar issues?

I just wanted to win it again with every other competition as well
I know what you mean, mate. I love winning the World Club Cup definitely.

So, I'm just coming up to December 2020 in my save & I've won every single game apart from a penalty shootout loss to Wolves in the Carling Cup.
Sounds odd maybe but I kinda hope I don't win the league in my first season, I'm more likely to get bored if that happens.
I just realised this sounds like a humblebrag

did you download any face, logo packs etc and did you have any problem loading them ?
Not at all mate, was easy peasy. One thing I would say is the save folder has now moved from Documents to the Library - to access the Library you have press ALT on the Finder.
I'll find a tutorial & DM you

Is there anyone playing on an iMac or are you all on PC's ?
I play on a MacBook Pro Retina, mate, works like a dream (but canes the battery if not plugged in)

I saw someone use Partey as a BBM and it didnt seem to suit him
I've been using him as a Mez/Att along side Ceballos as AP/Sup & Elneny behind as DM/Sup - works like a charm

Santi didn’t sign for me in January because he didn’t get a work permit! Argh!
Ah man, that's a shame

Looking to boost my midfield, and managed to unsettle Rambo at Juve, who I have the option to buy for a mostly deferred £17m in January. Perhaps not the best football decision strategically, but I think I'll do it anyway! For some reason he only wants £100k p/w to come home. Any thoughts?
Might see which other loved gooners might be available for reasonable prices! I can get an aging Cesc for like £500k, but his wages are big, but I might look into sant & le coq and maybe even the ox. Would certainly sort out my homegrown criteria!
I think signing Rambo back is a great idea, mate. I might do the same.
Every Arsenal save I do I am a sentimental wally in some ways, already got Bergkamp as a coach & Tony Adams as an U18 coach (even though his stats aren't good at all) - bringing Santi back for a season is a good idea too. The Ox is transfer listed on my save, been tempted by that, also.0 -
Nketiah is pushing to be my main CF over Lacazette too, he's been so so good.

Aubameyang balled for me.
I think if he carries on at the same rate for me I will have similar figures, man. He's been unreal for me so far - scored 5 against Man Utd! Started him as a PF/Sup but now he's playing remarkably well as an IF/Sup.

with the header color mod
Thanks mate, really appreciate that. The head colour is definitely something I miss.

Lolz - mate you just give that responsibility to your assistant manager (or anyone else for that matter). You literally never have to deal with it (I don't - it's a pain).
I love the training, I've only just recently got into it & I swear it's improved stuff (I might be wrong)

Anybody had success with Özil in there first season?
I've retrained him as a Centre Mid & have used him sparingly as a AP/Sup & he's been rubbish, worst trainer at the club tbh. Can't wait until he leaves (IRL too)

Granit Xhaka is always a massive arse on FM for some reason. Always demanding wage increases, agitating about one thing or another and never backs down. Problem is, no one wants to buy him at anything like value at the start of any game, so you just have to live with his whinging
Mate, I was mega lucky, I sold him straight away to Real for £28.5M! I couldn't believe my luck, haha

I remember someone saying they sold Luiz and everyone kicked off, has anyone sold him with no problems?
I let him go to Burnley for free while paying £50K a week for the last year of his contract. No one kicked up a fuss at all. I did the same with Sokratis going to Zenit while I cover £25K a week.

Can't complain for a no-fuss backup. I'm trying really hard to not sign too many players who expect to have regular starter status or greater at anyone one position (easier said than done).
Thanks for the tip, man. Also, on a side note, what skin is that? It looks great - I play on a Mac as well.

[FM 21] Arsenal - Still Waiting For Arteta's Tiki Taka!

I signed him on a similar deal on FM20 & he was very solid. I would go for it, mate. I like signing players like that. I nearly did the same with Sami Khedira in Jan window 2021 but changed my mind last min as his physicals are awful.
