thank you. If I was able to put a couple hundred more in (to be around 1200ish, is there any other recommendations that would be better? Or would that bracket still be comparable to this MSI? Again, thank you! Hoping to get one ready for FM25 but I know the spec requirements will not be out for a while.

I've had Asus ROG before, that's why I first thought of them. out of the 2 recs you posted, you'd go with the MSI? With RAM, 8, 16, or 32?

Looking at another ASUS laptop. What do folks think of this one? Amazon.com: ASUS TUF Gaming A17 Gaming Laptop, 17.3” 144Hz FHD IPS-Type Display, AMD Ryzen 5 4600H, GeForce GTX 1650, 8GB DDR4, 512GB PCIe SSD, RGB Keyboard, Windows 11 Home, Bonfire Black Color, FA706IH-RS53 : Electronics

Also, could add that former staff members who moved on to another club (in a transfer related capacity, like a Chief Scout, Director of Football, or First team manager) will have a tendency to go back to previous clubs for recommendations / players -- just like we've seen with Southampton signing several players from Man City's academy because of Jason Wilcox going there (and also Joe Shields, who moved on to chelsea)

I started a game with the start date in Brazil December 21. I don't know what's happened, but MLS players who were waived / not drafted are not eligible to be signed to a contract at all no matter what team as free agents. I assume this is draft related, but it is now in August (which would be way past the opportunities to draft them). Not sure what went wrong?

this has been the same for a few of the past editions, right?

One of the things that I’ve noticed is that it is super easy to build personal relationships with your player, through asking about signings/coaches, praising recent form, etc. I have not been able to notice this with human to staff interactions – I have been able to loan players from a specific club and it tells me that the relationship with you is strong/friendly opinion of you but judging on how to do that is very unscientific. We also have the option to ask a staff member to stay because of the strong relationship they have with you / the club, but I don’t see how to strengthen that type of relationship because of the lack of options to interact with them. I also think that being able to ask another coach (e.g., a former staff member who is now a coach/in the recruitment team at their new club) for a recommendation / vice versa, old staff members coming back to your club for signings /loans would be a nice touch – and we have seen that really strongly this past transfer window with Southampton’s new head of recruitment going back and signing several Man City youth products given his previous role at that club. I think that would help with getting new players / allowing a former staff member to use this relationship that you may have built with them, for their advantage in the game. On a similar note, being able to ask free-agent staff members to join a club who has offered you a position would be a good idea. We can see this for moving from one club to another, but you only have the ability to bring the staff at your current club with you to your new club. This would help see which potential staff members would want to join you at a new club.

I thought that might be it, but no. Got promoted to the Ekstraklasa (confirmed at the end of May, and now it's June 28 and the new year for the season) and it didn't kick in -- he's leaving on July 1. He did sign the pre-contract before promotion was confirmed, however.

I assume this is a bug then, as his 'contract extension after promotion' did not kick in and he left on a pre-contract?

I have a player who is on a one-year deal. Is not interested in negotiating a new contract and is in talks with other clubs in a pre-contract agreement. What will happen if he signs a pre contract deal with another side IF there is a "contract extension after promotion" and my club goes on to win promotion? Does the extension kick in or will he still move clubs?
