Exactly! Most manager's careers IRL are like that, FM can't be like that, incredibly frustrating.

AI teams don't really care about staff. You check their staff page and they don't even fill all the default positions, while we do and even have the option to ask the board to hire more. You can easily have twice the number of staff employed compared to your opponents, no matter how big or small. What I personally do, to not feel that I'm cheating, is hiring staff only with the same nationality of the club (p.ex. only portuguese staff in a portuguese team). And I still end up with the best staff of the league...

In the last update (21.4), the player Pêpê is already in FC Porto squad, when in reality he'll stay in Gremio until July 2021.

Oh nice, thanks again!

Many thanks. Small question, the fix for portuguese competition rules require a new save right?

Ok already saw it, thank you. For whoever reads the thread here: trick is to send a player from B team to an u23/u18 team and from there bring up to senior team.

Hi there, Title says all, I'm starting 2nd season, would like to promote the best B team players to main squad and I can't. When I click the option they seem to move, but as soon as I click Continue, they are back in B team. Is this a known issue or I'm doing something wrong. P.S. Changing players from u19 to u23 or from either to B team, works. Only doesn't work to main squad...

Hi there, In previous iterations of our beloved game, I learned (the hard way, like they needed a psychiatric appointment or something) that praising players more than once a month could lead to problems. I'm specifically talking about those reports about who trained better and worse. So, what I would do, would be clicking on "Interactions", checking the last time I spoke to that specific player, and if I had talk to them that month I would shut up, if I hadn't, I would praise / criticize at will. Now on Fm21 we don't have (or I don't see it) the "Interactions" tab that logs previous

I don't believe it to be possible, tbh.

I don't really agree. Can't imagine anyone in Barcelona being happy with a park-the-bus type of football. Some teams have their "brand" and I agree they should keep it. It's like a trademark.

If I understood your question correctly, what you're looking for doesn't exist anymore. FM20 already didn't had it. The HOYD is the responsible, period.

Mhm, there's something that I can work with! Thanks mate.

@04texagcongratulations for this thread, I subscribed and fully enjoy to read it. I wonder if you ever tried this setup with one (or even two) Inverted Wing Backs? I understand that in order to give it width you need them as Full Backs or Wing Backs, overlapping the Inside Forwards, but I wonder if there is a way to make a player (given suitable attributes, ofcourse) to play as a mix of the two roles... Meaning, give the player the option to see and decide if the team needs him wide (and go along the line, like a WB) or if he could be more useful in more central parts of the pitch, someth

People just have different preferences. Some like to run a season as fast as possible, some like the deepness of the "full fat game". Gladly, both can play as they prefer and both can still enjoy a life, too! It's fantastic really.

Usually yes (portuguese), tho in FM20 the PT translation was terrible. FM21 seems way better. But when I can understand the language, namely english and spanish, I use those when I go manage in those countries. I think having to answer a press conference in the language of the country I'm working in, is just realistic.
