    Danke to everyone who found my thread useful, apologies for never finishing the tactics and set-piece setups, in addition to finding myself busy with studies I also understandably found myself more engrossed with watching us play in real-life than sitting around playing FM :lol:

    Deutscher Meister!!

    Do you have any plans to start a save?

    @Skywalk3r83 Actually I used to use "play from defence" all the time but in FM24 i wouldnt recommend it anymore. All it does is make your CMs or DMs come deeper to get the ball. This can be undesirable behavior when it affects your shape and pressing. If you want to play out of defence just tell your keeper to roll out the ball or throw it to specific players such your designated BPD/Libero or more general to your CDs and Fullbacks. This will cut down on undesirable kicking behavior from keeper. Also make sure that you use a good Sweeper Keeper and that both of your CDs are pretty comfortable on the ball. But you need at least one good BPD-type to link up with keeper and then your midfield.

    Interesting. I might try this.

    Yeah the only problem for me is that I actually have a great B team with excellent training facilities. Its fully professional and coaches are hired fulltime. I'm in Spain and my B team is in 2nd division so not quite same situation as yours. If anything all of my future 1st Team stars go through it and develop by playing at least one season at higher level than u19. Sort of like Jong Ajax. So not useless at all. It's actually better than loaning them out because you can full control the tactics and directly put them in the lineup. Just lately lost some coaches from it because they retired and now can't fill the vacancies.

    Same here. I manage in Portugal and my B team play in the division below. I have managed to sign some coaches for the B team, but it's definitely tougher.

    Jonah Kusi-Asare - Bought from AIK for £1.8mill

    looks like a tall fast(ish) striker.

    Just signed him in my Benfica save. He did cost £12m because Milan found him first for £1.4m but they haven't used him, so I brought him in. He's 18 in my save too, and must have a high random PA because my scouts rate him at 5 stars and recommended me to sign him as a priority.

    A big struggle to find, looked high and low, would be miles better if I had reports to look at :D

    Im also struggling to get an Inside forward to score from the left side, regardless if I go short- direct or slow to high tempo, garnacho is completely inefective down the left, once I stick him on the right as a winger or upfront, he's a new player all together, it's so weird. Might have to see how rashford does up front. 

    Yeah the lack of reports is so frustrating. I hope it's fixed for the January window patch.

    They wanted 45m, want someone less than 30, preferably lower than 20. Had a brazillian on transfer list but the guy wanted 200k and starting, from saudi so that was a no go. Also want someone whos all around, can dribble, can pass and has some sort of heading bility. 

    Also getting a youngster in means he wont develop as well cause he wont get a lot of game time, want an experienced head. 

    Fair enough 👍🏻

    Wouldn't really know who to recommend tbh 😅

    Its game breaking and its making me not want to play it. Past FM's within first few weeks, most of the prem players have reports, this one, barely 1 or 2 per team, might have to manually scout teams to see if players are good. Sympathies with anyone using attribute masking and having to put more effort in. 

    He's a good player, can't wait to see how he turns out in the latter years, if they fix scouting that is... 

    Seems if you manually set up multiple recruitment focuses helps things a bit.

    I usually use attribute masking but really glad I didn't this time.

    Anyone else noticed scouting is pretty wack atm? Seen a few posts in bug section but nothing has been mentioned in terms of fixing it. 

    Yes, scouting is awful this year. There are so many players I have thought to myself why on earth haven't the scouts found this guy? They are literally useless. I have had to rely on manually scouting certain players myself. For example I bought Andre in my Benfica save but I don't think my scouts would have found him if I didn't manually scout him myself. Got him for £13.5m which was an absolute bargain.

    I see a lot of players that are well recommended, but 22-23 yrs old and not developed. I'm kinda unsure why I'm getting these "A" recommendations from my scouts for players which I would think should be better developed by this age. 

    I never sign these guys, but it's strange to see so many of these 22-23 year olds that have 4-5 star potentials. I just can imagine they will ever really reach it, and I pass on them all. Should I be doing that?

    How many active leagues do you have running? That has an impact on whether some players are developed or not. Although tbh the AI aren't great in general at developing players unfortunately.

    Nice post.The new features SI promisd SI said were in the game and are not its what's really getting to me like mentioned in your post…These new features do not work,like say AI squad building....and than we get a  post from si saying "They are happy with AI squad building?Either everyone who bought the game has lost the plot or SI have again not delivered on the game...Payed hard earned money for this game we have....It crazy now,it really is..I mean scouting is broken along with a host of other things..how did that happen and is a patch going to fix it?Scouting is kinda at the core of the game and that does not work correctly on 24... the list goes on and on and its all been reported now....so where do we go?

     

    What's wrong with the scouting?
