Okay guys, so I was thinking to upload about this issue from many days but didn't get time for it. In the last season when I got promoted from Skybet Championship as Barnsley, other Premier Division clubs released the players as usual but the players were unusual. One of them was luis Suarez, a 22 year old one and other was Thomas Muller, again a 22 year old one and their stats and playing position also matches the original players(not exactly). Thomas muller isn't that great but Suarez really is. Here are the attributes screenshot of two players. Is it a bug or something and where can I find more of these duplicates as they are cheap enough for Barnsley

Here we go again! This year with another expanded version that will include even more legendary clubs and players. With this update you will have an opportunity to play and manage 3500 legends spread all over the world in their respective teams. All of the major and many minor leagues are filled with clubs which possess their all-time greats and are under the guidance of some the managers , coaches and chairmans who ever graced the game. Winning anything in this update is a success, as many clubs and national teams have some of the best talent that ever appeared in history of football. Italian, English, German, Spanish and French clubs are strongest competitors. And not just the major ones. There are teams from Holland, Belgium, Scotland, Russia, Ukraine, Austria, former Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary or from Portugal who have good chances of winning the Champions League as much as the teams who are coming from the stronger leagues. This is like a Football Manager hard mode! The players who are coming from the oldest eras of football are older than the ones who are appeared later and therefore are closer to their peak and reaching their full potential. And don’t worry the likes of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo & Neymar still exist, but are a younger versions of themselves and are relocated to their parent clubs. Because of that your task as a manager is even more challenging as it’s up to you to develop them into world-class players they are today and if you succeed to make them a part of your squad. This is a thrilling update which can bring any Football Manager fan into an ecstatic state of nostalgia with no doubt that they will enjoy the game even more and find it refreshing and challenging like never before.

What is the view of having regens alongside legends coming through - I suppose it makes things easier to search for - but when you see the work done by people such as Fenech I doubt if all the killer players from the past would be easy to spot. Great way too of finding out about the players that didnt have the benefit of TV

70 Legendary Managers Added - In Depth Sample: See spoiler for list Any information found on the internet was used to complete as full and accurate a picture of each coach's style as possible. - Every manager has a unique personality: From correct birthdate, birthplace, hair/skin color, languages spoken...to liked clubs, disliked clubs, rivalries, controversial or calm, adaptability, and career plans...they all have been given attributes to act similar to their real life counterparts. - Preferred formations and play style: If I could find it, their formations and play styles have been added as close as possible. What types of roles they liked as well. - Tendencies: If possible, I added tendencies, such as counterattacking, target man...if they often wore suits or tracksuits, if they roamed the touch line or sat quietly...etc. - Every manager has a club: The club they won the most titles with or spent the longest time with was used. If that was taken already, the 2nd best club was used, and so on. If no club was available, a random club was chosen from the league they managed in. - Current real-life managers have been replaced, of course. Either they are Assistant Managers on a 1-year contract, or been sent back to a previous club they managed. - Managers who are icons for a club were given long contracts: For example, Bob Paisley's contract for Liverpool is until 2040. - For long-term saves, all managers are around 50 or under - 20 rated attributes: Determination, Tactical Knowledge, Squad Rotation and all the Training-related attributes are 20. This is to make great managers, and to help(slightly) the poor player development and rotation AI clubs have. - National Teams: If they managed a national team, that was added if possible Better AI Managers Overall Besides the new managers, ones already in-game have been modified. For 130 CA+ managers: - Given a 20pt CA/PA increase - Coaching abilities increased also, relative to their CA - Tactical Knowledge increased, to 14 or greater, relative to CA - Coaching style from Not Set to General - Use of Subs is no longer less than 11 - Squad Rotation is 20 - Tendency to fit players to preferred tactic, no longer higher than 14 For 160 CA+ managers: - Added missing ethnicity, hair, skin info For 100 -120 CA managers: - Added preference to be Assistant Manager to 10 Questions Remaining: 1. There has long been an issue of unrealistic manager appointments. Would adding career plans help? For example, a Polish 160 CA manager hired in Italy. Would giving him a career plan to manage in Poland reduce that? 2. High quality managers without a job Would it be better to reduce their reputation so they are more willing to work in top leagues? Remove career plans? Or give them a tendency to work in lower leagues? 3. There is a new non-tactical attribute: Versatility Does anyone know what that refers to? 4. Formation variety is poor. Would anyone like it if there was more variety? For example, checking all 130+ CA managers: 179 prefer 4-4-2, 157 prefer 4-1-2-3 DM Wide, 155 prefer 4-2-3-1 Wide, and 83 prefer 4-2-3-1 DM Wide. Would adding variety make the AI dumber? Or are there other OP formations the managers could use to make them better? Input and Testing Welcomed: Having only used Google to know what these managers were like, someone with more knowledge can point out errors, or supply information as to their tendencies. Someone with great knowledge of FM's tactical side could see if a better formation should be chosen, or play style changed, etc... Of course, testing is needed: to see how the managers play, if changes need to be made, crashes happen, or simply if a mistake/typo/wrong info is found.

After last year's great success of this database, I decided to publish an expanded version that will include even more legendary clubs and players. If you ever wanted to see Paul Gasoigne, Hristo Stoichkov, Franz Beckenbauer, Zico, Marco van Basten, Duncan Edwards, Hugo Sanchez, Gabriel Batistuta all of them in one place and facing each other? Well, now you can. In Football Manager 2017 and with an update “Return Of The Legends for FM17”, you will have an opportunity to play and manage all of these stars and 3000 others spread all over the world in their respective teams. All of the major and many minor leagues are filled with clubs which possess their all-time greats and are under the guidance of some the managers who ever graced the game. Bob Paisley is in charge of Liverpool who has players such as Kevin Keegan, Alan Hansen, Kenny Dalglish & John Barnes amongst others. Sir Alex Ferguson is leading Manchester United with George Best, Bobby Charlton, Ryan Giggs & Eric Cantona and is up to you stop him for dominating the Premier League again. In addition, there are great generations of Leeds, London giants and "crazy gang" from Wimbledon. Or maybe you think you can do better than Helenio Herrera at Inter with the likes of Giacinto Facchetti, Ronaldo & Sandro Mazzola in your squad and win the battle for Scudetto against Arrigo Sacchi’s AC Milan and their formidable defense, against Juventus and their three-time Ballon d’Or winner Michel Platini and can you hold out against Fiorentina’s deadly duo – Baggio & Batistuta? Also, from the shadows seek a chance Grande Torino, Eriksson’s Lazio, Napoli with Maradona and Legendary Parma team. In new edition I include legendary Foggia team, led by Zdenek Zeman, and much more legends from lower italian clubs such as Triestina, Padova, Vicenza, Bari. Winning anything in this update is a success, as many clubs and national teams have some of the best talent that ever appeared in history of football. German, Spanish and French clubs are great competitors. And not just the major ones. There are teams from Holland, Belgium, Scotland, Russia, Ukraine, Austria, former Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary or from Portugal who have good chances of winning the Champions League as much as the teams who are coming from the stronger leagues. This year I added a lot of Asian and African legends, especially from Korea, Japan, Middle East, and some great legends of Fortuna Dusseldorf, Magdeburg, RW Essen, Achen, Mulhouse, Racing Club Paris, Las Palmas. The players who are coming from the oldest eras of football are older than the ones who are appeared later and therefore are closer to their peak and reaching their full potential. And don’t worry the likes of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo & Neymar still exist, but are a younger versions of themselves and are relocated to their parent clubs. Because of that your task as a manager is even more challenging as it’s up to you to develop them into world-class players they are today and if you succeed to make them a part of your squad. This is a thrilling update which can bring any Football Manager fan into an ecstatic state of nostalgia with no doubt that they will enjoy the game even more and find it refreshing and challenging like never before. Also were done and facepack for almost all players, which will further give the game interesting. The man behind the whole project is David Salapura from Serbia. With a little help of some of his friends from Serbian FM Community after few months of work they created this update for every Football Manager fan to enjoy. I owe special thanks to Victor Kalma Srica, who helped me this year. DOWNLOAD Here is shortlist file with all legends.

Create a broader staff with a psychologist / motivator, a nutritionist, warehouseman, and press officer to increase the number of people interacting with the team and the players. Then create a team of old glorys over 35 or over 40 with their own championship, so to satisfy even old CM / FM players like me. The team of old glories only for the most prestigious teams. Hello
