First, I’m playing with Tottenham and my youth recruitment level is at extensive, but I still have the option to request an increase in it on my board request options. When I do, it says “your youth recruitment is now considered extensive”. Is this a bug? I don’t see any point in continuing to ask for an increase in it. But I thought the option would disappear when it reached it highest level. Also, I am wanting to find newgen wonderkids from around the world. Is there a easy way to search for this? I have both the world scouting packages, and 16 pretty good scouts. Any advice on how to search for these players? I appreciate anyone’s time and feedback.

Does it matter what country the HOYD is from or has extensive knowledge of? I’m starting a save with Tottenham and found a German HOYD I like, he speaks English, has good ratings, but only knowledge of Germany so far. Should I find one from England? Or should it be ok?

I am starting a new save with Tottenham, and have a training camp in Los Angeles. I am trying to schedule friendlies but my only options are really low level American teams. Before the latest update, it would have an option of scheduling teams that were also touring close, but that never appears now. Any suggestions on getting better friendlies during the training camp period?

I run a 4123 DM formation with 2 wingers and 1 striker right now and I won the league in my first season. I signed Dolberg and De Ligt, and also signed Gelson Martins. I have nice depth on my wings and midfield also. Dolberg played AML and Striker and he had 31 goals for me.

When can I offer a player a contract based on their contract expiring? There are 2 players I’m interested in and shows their contract is up in 6 months or so.

Is there a way I can edit the Brexit happening during my save? I’m in November of my second season with Tottenham. If so, how would I do that?

I am enjoying this years game very much. The only thing that is bothering me is long shots/crazy close range shots. Im playing with Tottenham and there are many instances where one of my attacking players such as Harry Kane will be right outside the box and his shot hits the corner flag pole. Really? I can understand missing shots wide and high, but I’ve never seen anyone shoot and hit the ball close to where corners are taken. Even some close range shots go wide by 10 yards at times. SI, is this going to be fixed in the next update? I know the game will never be perfect, but It’s the main thing that is hurting my game in my opinion.

Smurf, Why do you feel the i7-7700 would be better than the i7-7820? I thought I read that the 7820 was the newer Kaby Lake processor. -

NVidia GTX 1080 graphics card and a 17.3 QHD 2560x1440 120hz with g-sync 400-nits screen 2nd is on sale for 2190. I7-7820 processor, 16gb RAM, 256ssd & 1tb HD. NVidia GTX 1070 graphics card and a 17.3 QHD 2560x1440 120hz with g-sync 400-nits screen i will use for FM18, civilization and sim games. My wife will use it for WoW, Starcraft, and games like that. I want to run FM with all countries and largest DB possible. Whats your opinion on which I should get. It more RAM and one step up graphics card gonna make a huge difference for my games? We are purchasing this as a laptop to last us a good 4-6 years, and want to play FM on it with max database for years to come. -

No, the more expensive one has a better screen with g-sync, but can be harder to view at angles. It’s UHD vs FHD -

I am looking to purchase one of these today! I am pretty excited about my decision to go with Alienware. I will use it to play Football Manager, Civilization, and similar games. My wife will use it to play Diablo and Starcraft and similar games. We have saved for this purchase and we picked Alienware because we love the look, options, customizable options, and build. And we want one that will play the type of games we like for a few years. I am not sure which model to go with. The only difference between the 2 is the screen I think. Can you all give me some feedback and suggestions? Also, if you think I should go with a different model for what we need it for, please send me suggestions. Here are the 2 I am looking at right now:https://www.bestbuy.com/site/alienw...id-state-drive-silver/5713009.p?skuId=5713009https://www.bestbuy.com/site/alienw...id-state-drive-silver/5713010.p?skuId=5713010 -

Thank you, I’ll check them out. Really want a 17’ screen. I’ll find a few and send them to you. I found a few I like, love the Alienware. But it’s expensive. And I’m really only going to play FM on this laptop.
