Football Manager 2018

[Rocky]

I remember running a game back on CM (i think) using GO Ahead Eagles... I spent every transfer possibility on trying to bring Marc Overmars back to the squad.

Spoiler

Nice.

[The Lusophone]

Might be on for a treble here. Nerves.

[The Lusophone]

HAHAHAHAHA OF COURSE NOT. OF FUCKING COURSE NOT.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

A treble of losses is still a treble.

[The Lusophone]

Lost in extra time to a Mandzukic (who, in every save I do, is the closest thing I have to an enemy in this game) winner for Juve. Won the league though and beat Bayern 3-2 on the final day. Bernard wants to leave to join them but fuck that noise.

[The Lusophone]

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

[Rocky]

I dunno. Do you leave the club you literally just won the league with? If you're at the end of your contract, then I'd say go for it but if not, I'd stick around and try again for the Treble.

Uninstalling FM18 and installing FMT. It's just too much for me. I'm gonna avoid playing in Serbia this time round. Thinking about a league that has a limited amount of Foreign Players Registered ruling. Russia and Turkey are the first two to pop to mind.

EDIT:
This link is going to be very helpful in deciding.

EDIT 2:
I think I'm going to play in Norway. Registration Rulings are as follows. No Match Squad rulings

• Minimum of 2 players trained at the club for 3 years before 21^st birthday
• Maximum of 11 non-homegrown players
• Maximum of 35 players per season

Time to find a team in Bergen!

[Arjen Robben]

Don't go to Bayern. I find that my interest in a save nosedives every time I've ever gone to a huge club like that, it just feels like it kills off what's got you invested in th save in the first place when you don't even really have to try all that hard anymore. BUILD A DYNASTY AT LEIPZIG.

I tried MLS and failed miserably. Everything is so complicated, I can’t get my head around it.

Maybe I’m not great at taking suggestions. 

Preferably would be in Europe. 

My suggestion is Palermo. I have a soft spot for Palermo ever since like FM 2005, have had at least one save on every FM as them since. Their teams in the mid 2000's were always so fun. Barzagli, Grosso, Zaccardo, Simplicio, Bresciano, Di Michele, Biava, Accardi, Rinaudo, Tedesco, Corini, Santana, Gonzalez, Brienza, Makinwa, Bonanni, Caracciolo, Simone Pepe, Amauri, Cavani, Luca Toni, Sirigu, Bovo. ❤️

In the current game they have Felice D'Amico and Simone Lo Faso who are fun to use.

So PALERMO.

ALSO!

How sinister.

[The Lusophone]

Didn't go to Bayern, staying at Leipzig. Finally sold off Yussuf Poulsen for £20 million, but that's more than anyone else ever offered. Annoying. Both Kampl and Sabitzer might be going, not set on a replacement yet, so right wing suggestions are welcome. I'm trying to get the left-back Aaron from Espanyol cos he's unhappy, might use the wantaway Bernardo as part of the deal.

[Arjen Robben]

My go-to right wing suggestion is Cristian Pavon. Although Gabriel Barbosa you could probably get for a reasonable fee, although given that he always seems to be struggling for first team football early on, might require a bit of a repair job from you. Maybe Justin Kluivert? Or Christian Pulisic, depending on how much you're willing to spend and if he hasn't already gone to Bayern the way he always does. Also Dennis Man, Riccardo Orsolini or Andrija Zivkovic. Ramadhan Sobhi also decent. Hassane Balde, Myziane Maoulida and Willem Geubbels too.

Have never actually used any of those bar Pavon, Barbosa and the two Lyon lads, but they're players that always seem to do well against me from the right.

Do you not have Augustin anymore? He's decent isn't he?

[The Lusophone]

I went mental and signed Julian Brandt instead. Augustin I'm using as a striker, but he's a good choice. I can't not spend money on this game apparently. Spent £74 million to activate Aaron's release clause. 

[The Lusophone]

I can't stop myself.

Why did Tottenham play in the MLS All-Stars game?

The MLS All-Stars game is a team of MLS players vs a foreign side.

I've got a separate save file where I didn't do the mad cash splurge. >_>

[Meacon Keaton]

That's cheatin'!

[FLiam]

The boo's were directed at signing that filthbag known as Dele Alli. 

Now you deserve more for having some sort of cheat game going on.

Disgraceful. 

[The Lusophone]

When important decisions (job offers that interest me mostly) come around I save beforehand, take the decision, save as a separate file and then reload, reject the decision, save. Not seeing a problem.

Alli is a filthbag though.
