  1. Just a couple of observations on the poor research of Burnley. 

     

    1. Supporter culture shows 'play direct football' which is nonsense.

     

    2. Charlie Taylor has played as a CB all season and yet can't play there at all on FM23.

     

    3. Jay Rodriguez is a natural ML in-game... he's never played as a ML in real life. Maybe as a AM(L) a couple of times but that's all.

     

    4. Nathan Tella can be re-called by Southampton in real life, but this clause isn't in the game.

     

    5. Sean Dyche is only listed as 'favoured personnel'. To list Dyche alongside Brian Jensen in the favoured personnel category is laughable. He's at the very least an Icon!

     

    Very poor from the Burnley researcher.

     

  2. I'll probably wait until after Christmas to buy this year's game. That's nothing against the game, I think it looks great... but I have a newborn son and if I spend £35 on a game I think my wife may divorce me :D 

     

    I might not manage as many hours on this year's game but it will still be value for money even if I end up playing just 50 hours. People spend more money for just one night at the pub.

  3. I have to admit, I had my reservations when women's football was first announced in FM but the Euros were a great showcase of the women's game.

    I'd definitely now be more inclined to manage a women's team on FM. I'm not sure how it would be implemented and if you could switch between the women's and men's games in the same save?

    I think people, myself included, were too quick to compare men's and women's football. If you observe each game on their own merits then women's football is great.

    I came across an annoying bug today. 2 of my players got a ban for accumulation of yellow cards. My next game was then in the Fa Cup so I was expecting them to be unavailable for that and then start them again in the league. The players weren't banned for the Fa cup game but were for the league game after.

     

    I'm pretty sure the rule changed 2 or 3 years ago so that yellow card bans only count for the competition they were earned in.

  5. The new update sounds great, good work, SI :brock:

     

    My only problem is that I haven't yet updated my save and I'm flying with Burnley, currently in the CL group stages. I'm scared that my 4-4-2 wing play tactic won't work after the update :D

     

    So as good as the update sounds, I think I'll wait until the end of my current season at least before updating... unless anyone who plays the same way can confirm it's still effective?

    It's irrelevant to a footballer who will make millions. If you have that money, of course Russia is a developed country.

    You're talking as if the player is on £50 per week in Sweden and being offered £100,000 in Russia. It's not irrelevant at all. Some players would be more than happy to make the move, others wouldn't even entertain the idea. Like I've previously said, it's down to personal choice.

     

    Russia isn't a developed country by definition, but you can have your opinion :) I'll leave this thread now, it's boring me.

    I definitely think palace will be a good one this year. Lots of young talent. 
    Brighton and Burnley both good options as well with good cores. It would be good to develop an attractive playing style with Burnley, be a good long-term save. 

     

    I'm currently playing with Burnley. Stuck to 4-4-2 and play wing play. Had a great first season finishing 9th. The highlight was beating an injury-ravaged Arsenal 6-2 at home! ...I won't talk about my opening day 6-1 loss to Man City though :D

     

    Arsenal have since bid £60 million for Dwight McNeil. I imagine he'll be leaving if they offer slightly more so he will be difficult to replace. James Tarkowski also looks set to leave on a free transfer so I'm looking for a younger CB to partner Ben Mee. 

     

    Chris Wood scores plenty as a Target Forward with decent high crosses from the wingers.

     

    I have no expectations for this coming season but hope to push for a Europa League place the season after.

    Did somebody say this same thread had 80ish pages last year?

    I wonder if a correlation between feature release where biggest is new role for CB and reduction of interest.

     

    Many people were stuck indoors last year, that was probably the biggest correlation. People have their lives back now.

     

     

    PS. Release the beta, SI! :D
