Thanks for the reply, also glad you put the reply here as well as the bug forum to help people searching in the future. I was aware thats why they pulled out of the last one, but it is surprising as you'd think the risk of defecting at a WCQ was the same as an AFCoN qualifier. Either way thats a matter for their FA (or I suspect more likely the government of the country). Thanks again for your response, hope me posting the thread in two locations didn't cause any issues.

Hi, In game Eritrea never get the opportunity to compete in AFCoN qualifying, they do however compete in the World Cup Qualifying

For future reference in case anyone finds this thread doing a search, to provide useful evidence as opposed to the smart alec comment by @kentonizking Eritrea in game eventually end up taking part in world cup qualifying, however due to a bug they never take part in AFCoN qualifying. I will submit a report to the bugs forum to hopefully get this resolved by FM2022 as i imagine it will be too late and considered too unimportant for this game to be updated.

Apologies for my misspelling, however do you have an answer to my question?

hi, in the game do Eritea ever play in international competitions, i started a game with them as the lowest ranked national side and i'm aware in real liefe they opted out of this years ACoN, hence not being in that in the game. But i'm now in game time at qualifying for the next one and they still don't seem to be entered, will i have the same issue with the world cup qulaifiers?

English prem i think you mean. Welsh Premier has its intake date in April

To clarify, each nation is supposed to supply 75 teams, but they are only supplying the top division teams from the season prior meaning there is not 300 teams to play therefore the competition never gets drawn or started

Further investigation has showed that the list of teams is only top division clubs from the previous season, so its probably not getting enough teams to start, how do i get it to pull lower division clubs in?

Hi All, New to editing so bear with me, searched the help guides and not found an answer to my issue. I've created a GB and NI Cup in the editor following this guide https://www.squawka.com/en/football-manager-2020-guide-custom-cup-competition/ but adjusting to my needs. Doing tests in the editor everything runs fine and it shows no issues, when i start the game it shows cup competition starts on 23rd July as scheduled and their is a number of teams listed as competing in the 1st round (though less than i believe there should be as i requested 300. However when i get to this date the competition never starts, even months later its still showing as competition scheduled to start on 23 July 2020 Why is my competition not starting, can someone offer advice?

Thankyou so much for your help

Hi. Appreciate any help/advice you can offer me as my computer knowledge is not very good. Once i spent a lot of money on a laptop that was worse than my previous one, hence i wanted some advice. My current laptop is this which is giving up the ghost HP 15-da0000na https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07KFML9YJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have a budget of approx £6-700 and am looking to replace it with an improved version (Paid £550 for that over two years ago, if i could find something a little better for the same price that would be ideal. Generally i use the laptop for FM, maybe a bit of civ and watching movies. A minimum of a 15" screen is required for me. As well as running FM in 3D I have found these three so far, would you be able to confirm that they are better than my current laptop for running FM https://www.amazon.co.uk/HP-Pavilion-Gaming-Laptop-15-ec1007na/dp/B08WLVP2YB/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=hp+pavilion+gaming+laptop+15-ec1007na&qid=1613657897&s=computers&sr=1-3 https://ao.com/product/81lk01pruk-lenovo-ideapad-l34015irh-laptop-black-81658-251.aspx https://www.amazon.co.uk/Acer-Aspire-A515-55-15-6-Laptop/dp/B08FXNW1PP/ref=sr_1_16?crid=32RVJSXNLB5JO&dchild=1&keywords=gaming%2Blaptop%2B15.6%2Binch&qid=1613658330&refinements=p_36%3A-70000&rnid=428432031&s=computers&sprefix=gaming%2Blaptop%2B15.6%2Ccomputers%2C156&sr=1-16&th=1 Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer, I really appreciate it

wow that truly is a golden generation. The most i've ever had at intake was 2 stars, and that was a one off

Wow i dream of having a regen come through that good, how many stars was he when he first appeared in your youth intake? did you put him straight in the first team?

Arsenal and Tottenham had a few relegation battles 5 seasons in, but always pulled clear in the end, think leicester went down second season

Thankyou for the response, I will need to rethink how i pick national squads.

Basically i really just need a way to search plaayers by their natural position in the player search as i've just started an international game and i don't want to have to click into each player when choosing the squad, previously the player search plus scout reports did this though scouts ability of best position, but on FM21 this now doesn't work

Hi All, Why in this game (FM21) is the best position (be it recommended by a scout or a coach) so often so different from the natural position, whereas historically (Fm21 and previous 99% of the time it was the same). I'm noticing in particular a very large amount of players who's best position is AML, when there natural position is mc ml mr AMC AMR or ST Additionally in the player search is there a way to get it to show the players natural position?

pretty normal condition in football, idea being you decide your team ahead of the game, and move the ones not in the 18 to the under 23s if they need minutes

because any player to work in this country after brexit requires a WP which needs to satisfy the rules stated in your first photo, he did not therefore he cannot have one. FA currently finalising the rules, but all rumours pointing to real life being similar to what you have there, so you'll be seeing this in the championship in upcoming years

Post it in the bugs forum not here. else it wont get fixed

looking forward to see how the north west get on in FM21, think the lack of interest last time was due to lack of updates, once you start updating on progress (maybe monthly?) then people will post. Hopefully some more Cumbrians make the North West side this time

shame it didn't make it for FM21, here is hoping for FM22, would be nice to see when someone becomes the club record goal scorer, and how close the nearest person is to taking it

but this is the current most likely scenario being discussed by the FA, the premier league are against it, but it looks like the FA will push it through

Yes they were both injured in January 2020, Heaton is just recovering now and Wesley expected to be out until January this year

Hi, its fine, its cause I was looking at a screen of excellent and peak which don't have a fullness difference, as soon as it drops to good whilst i still cant see a colour difference the fullness difference is perfectly clear.
