Hello everyone. Some of you might have seen my initial post a few days ago, being new to FM and looking forward to FM24 I'm really lost as to where to start, which team to manage, I'm very curious about the Japanese league but i have no clue about their football, which teams there are strong or worth considering, there's just this bug on my head telling me that Japanese football and managing a team there could be super fun, even in countries like Croatia and Austria or even the Dutch league but my knowledge is very limited. People have told me about challenges or team suggestions but i have no idea where i can look for those, is there a website or something i can go to to have a look a teams that could be a good start? I was also thinking about the Isthmian League, does anyone here as experience with that league or the different divisions and has any team suggestions? I find that the Guernsey FC could be a cool experience to take on.

So Gibraltar will also be in FM24 with the full league?

Hello @XaW glad to see you again here i hope you are well. Thanks for sharing that information now i know that soon it will be lifted. If i may ask this off topic question, the Japanese league will be fully licensed in FM24, are there any new leagues to be introduced into the game like the Arab league or others? Is there any information about the release of the Beta for FM24? People keep saying that it's today the 19th other tomorrow and others that it will be on Monday...I'm always checking Steam and around the internet but i can't find any information

Hello everyone, I'm new around here and to the world of FM. I noticed the other day that i couldn't post anymore in the forums or even reply because i reached my daily limit. Is there a way to increase the amount of times that i can interact on these forums or is there always a limit?

I thank you for the link that you provided i already got it with me, i will take a look later on and in the days until we get early access. By the way, is there a section on these forums where you guys talk about players from the game both already mature players or seasoned players and possible young talents?

I would love to play a proper FM with the likes of Pele, Cruyff and all those legends but given that i wasn't even born in that age i prefer to stick around current football So the journeyman is that? Where you manage different clubs around the world?

In FM23 more than once xD

It's ok i know when to stop, i force myself to

Hello @DarJ in those 2 countries is there any teams i should consider?

Exactly what my girlfriend told me xD but yeah I'm aware of that.

Hello XaW, i always loved football and always watched it, well in these days to be honest i barely watch any games, mainly i watch Real Madrid because i love that club and my Portugal national team, outside of that i'm not updated about many of the players around, mainly talents or potential talents or superstars. I used to watch a lot of football in the Arsenal years when they had Henry, Pires, Bergkamp, United when it had Giggs , Rooney, Roanldo, Stam, AC Milan...oh man i loved that Milan with Pirlo, Gattuso, Kaka, Shevchenko, Maldini, I'm from those times, i was in the stadium when Zidane scored 2 goals in the final of the World Cup against Brazil, a maestro of football, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo the Brazilian striker...it felt like a golden age of football. Sorry i got out of topic. About what i wish in FM24 is indeed a challenge, for example, to me managing a team in Japan would be it's own challenge because i don't know much at all about the football in that country, in terms of rules i would prefer to be in a league where i can recruit players from other countries and nationalities. I apologize for this question but what's a journeyman-save??

Hello everyone. Football Manager 2023 was the first game of the series to me, I already pre-ordered FM24 as soon as it was available and I'm guessing that, as many of you here, I'm anxious for the Beta to be available. In FM23 i started with Benfica a team from my country and it is considered as a top tier team over here, i stayed there for a few seasons, i achieved national glory and also have won the Champions League until i was recruited by Real Madrid and i stayed there because i love that club. For FM24 i am looking for something different, a challenge of some sort, my objective as of now is to start on a first division team that has little to no glory on a national level and the same in Europe or a second division team that can aspire to be promoted to the main division and from there be motivated for the big prize in the main league and to aspire to Europe, either Champions or Europa League. I am asking you, to the people that have much more knowledge than me about this, for your suggestions as to where i could start this challenge, i am open to any country honestly, from the USA, to Croatia, somewhere in Asia...after all football is universal right? I also noticed that the new FM will feature the entire Japanese leagues and that seems an interesting place to start but my issue in all this is my lack of knowledge, it's easy to understand more about the big leagues or the ones that have a big media projection like the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A etc, on the other hand i don't know much about the ones that don't have the same projection. I know clubs like Ajax, Psv from the Dutch league but about the rest of the teams and that league i don't know much but i have people always telling me that the Dutch leagues and football are super interesting, that the league in Croatia can also be fun, Serbia as well, Belgium, Austria, picking up a club like Hamburger SV, for example, at take it to the top Bundesliga division again and so on. I apologize if this topic is getting big, i could talk about football for hours, i would love to get much more into those less known or mediatized teams and divisions, i honestly think that the Japanese league can be so much fun but i can also be wrong. I wish to read about your suggestions from your past experiences and challenges that you decided to take on and loved, maybe that will help me decide about where i will start in FM24, i just don't want to start with Benfica again and i wish to manage a team outside Portugal
