Now here's where it goes wrong,
I can only qualify for OCE Champions League if i'm playing in the top flight but no jobs have become available for all of those 5 years.
So should I add a new manager to one of those teams, (probably the one with the lowest rep), then resign and apply for the job on my main manager? That seems like it's my only option.

Yep makes perfect sense m8.

Then you probably shouldn't be sitting on your ass playing FM in your free time. Go get a (second) job, or go to school and learn a skill so you can earn some disposable income.
>It's only updated rosters, why should I pay for that?
DB updates are everywhere and free. Having two brain cells to rub together can find you a dozen to pick and choose from.
>$50 is too expensive, I don't want to pay that much.
Assuming you buy it at the full 50 USD price, and you play 1000 hours, you'd be paying a nickel for every hour played. Seems pretty cheap to me.
>I'm not going to play 1000+ hours, it's not an economical decision for me.
Then surely you can keep playing a previous version, since 90% of the fun of FM is developing your regens and turning your shit 17th division local team into a world known powerhouse.
>I'm not going to play 1000+ hours, I really only have fun in the first few seasons with players I know.
Then you should acknowledge that FM is not the game for you.
Always willing to add more to this pasta, please respond with why you think you're entitled to the same game as people who have purchased it. Please note that I'm not anti-torrent, simply anti-spoonfeeding. Fuck off and get it yourself, I don't actually want to hear your awful reasoning for why you're entitled to the full game >for free.

People here don't get paid in dolars, but rather in reals. Have you ever thought about that? It's not as easy to get 100 reals as it is to get 100 dolars.

>>64017091
His original argument was he couldn't make enough money to purchase FM. I'm trying to point out that what we purchase is incredibly more expensive than it's Brazillian counterpart, 100% because of that difference in wage.
As such, If he cannot afford to purchase FM, that's a (him) problem, not a (brazil) problem, and he should likely heed the original post.

>>64017357
So it's comparable to what I posted, then, which is 1 block off Broadway in Brooklyn.
>>64017390
London prices are ludicrous though.
Could get a decentish place for 800 pounds a month (which is obviously a bit more than 800 dollars but still) in various places around the country, nothing too fancy but respectable. But a mate of mine lived in Brixton in London (which is the really shitty part of London, like 4 locks on every front door, can hear gunshots nearby a couple of times a month, know alternative routes to places because local streets regualrly closed due to stabbings) in a pretty shitty flat shared with 3 others and it cost him £700 a month and he voluntarily took the smallest room to save a little money.
>>64017616
>London prices are ludicrous though.
>New York City prices aren't
anyway, please post suggestions for other logos
>>64017742
>>New York City prices aren't
Oh yeah I wasn't implying they weren't, just its crazy how even the absolute shithole areas can be so expensive.
>>64017616
It's always funny seeing friends I graduated with brag about their high London salaries despite having absolutely zero savings, whilst I'm still here in the North-East earning less but with a £55k flat fully paid off and £20k savings 4 years after graduating.

The game opted to generate ghost players for the national team instead of bringing the newgen talent
>>64020756
that's because the national teams youth rating is higher than the quality of regens that have been produced so far.
I've never had this happen before. I got invited to a testimonial match and accepted, and one of my players is unavailable for the match. He's playing for the opposition. How should I treat this traitor?

>>64028036
where do you think there's an issue? for the upper table you should've only had to type in the match wins/losses/draws, then run formulas for the rest of it. that way you'd be instantly alerted by issues in your numbers.
as far as the lower table, you should have merged two cells to create a space for the team on the Away row, so two columns would be beneath them. beneath each team name left column would be the home goals, right column would be the away goals. from there you'd run another formula to automatically populate the upper table as well.
excel is exceptionally useful at translating and simplifying raw data, when used appropriately.
>>64028204
180 wins
182 losses
most of it is formulas and I still fucked up somewhere
>>64028222
Still not seeing the issue?
>>64028259
every time a match is played, there are two possible results
>1x win + 1x loss
>2x draw
as such, draws will always be an even number, and win/losses will always be equal.
I screwed up and have 1 match with 2x loss somewhere
... when you see it
>>64028289

>>64028441
signing of the season for 55M good is
although this happenned because I started the save midseason (Belarusian summer season ftw) and disabled first window transfer budgets
Falcao's loan deal got turned permanent on June 13th, guess no other loanee got signed so he was pretty much uncontested for it
decent season, though
>>64028447
that too
>>64028450
Yer Dinner Classics have 8 draws in the bottom table and 9 in the top one.
>>64028434
i don't think there's an issue at all.
16 teams * 30 matches played = 480 matches total
180 wins + 118 draws + 182 losses = 480 total matches
honestly where do you think the issue is? it's all correct and the numbers add up just fine.
>>64028488
If there is 180 wins, there should be 180 losses.

I almost always use BWM-D in LLM. Like others said it is a safety cushion in the midfield. Until you get to a point where you can acquire guys who can actually play some of the more versatile CM roles it is one of the only realistic options.

hi

>>64030325
You're right that was poor phrasing on my part. I guess I meant it more like if you use a defensive forward, you've got a chance at getting the ball back right away. If you use a BWM-D you have a chance and taking possession right back in the middle. Conversely, if you just leave it all up to your defense you're not giving yourself those opportunities and it just comes down to your defensive line and keeper.
Totally agree with you.

Are you claiming that FM is not realistic?!
My staff are not in control of any contract renewals, but two players who have been in and around the first team squad who were on £5 a week youth contracts just got given professional contracts worth £45 a week when they turned 17. I didn't offer them shit. Is this a bug, or is this just something that happens when youth players who have played significant minutes turn 17?
>>64048884
maybe they were on pre-contracts? you can offer young players full contracts but they'll only receive those full wages when they turn 17
>>64048884
Pre-contracts.
>>64049681
When I offered the contracts they were youth type, and £5 was locked. Pic related is the exact kind of deal I gave to a few players. Other players on this contract who don't play much have continued past 17 on £5. If it's a reward for a lot of playing time on a youth contract, then 2 other players are due this kind of raise. I feel tricked.

I'm playing almost the same formation right now, but with a winger (s) on the right and a wing back (a) on the left, mostly for lack of an RWB at this level. Might give turning the winger into a DF a try.
>>64057169
>fullbacks
>>64057657
Sure but I mean even players that don't seem well suited to the role seem to perform quite well
>>64057742
Do it. I was basically playing that and it was ok but not great, I was kinda getting frustrated and just decided to try something different and it works fantastic. I used DWs briefly in a save at the end of FM14 and it worked great but then 15 came out, tried something similar and found it didn't work at all and promptly forgot about it until now.
I know everyone creams themselves over CWBs here and I won't deny they're good but DW seems to give you the best of a winger and a defensive wingback. Think you probably need to have 3 cbs though since you're a little more exposed at the back.
>Player actually finished from a tight angle rather than smashing it wide or against the post
samefag: >>64054994
It actually worked. It moved me to the higher league and removed the league I was promoted from on the 25th of June. I cut my player count from 57k to 22k. Made a backup. Let's see if any horrible bugs occur.
>>64057657
>>64057742
Why do people hate fullbacks? Is it just fullbacks or do people hate wingbacks as well?
Could someone explain why?
>>64059131
I've got no problem with a DL/DR. The fullback role, however, is a waste of a player.
>>64059131
fullbacks perform substantially worse than wingbacks. Some argue its just the rating system is broken and they actually perform perfectly fine but with complete wingbacks widely considered massively OP theres no good reason to play fullbacks.
>>64059208
and DL/R are called fullbacks, hence why a bunch of retards sperged out over nothing after this>>64057169
>>64059496
>implying you can't play a wingback in that position
If you're using a wingback or complete wingback in the DL/DR slot and describing it as a fullback then you are the retard.
>>64059496
but you can play wingbacks in that position
>>64059616
>>64059636
considering theres a position literally called 'wingback'
calling d l/r fullback makes sense regardless of role.
>>64059710
Because you can't play anything other than a variant of a wingback in that slot whether it be a wingback, inverted wingback or complete wingback. The DL/DR slot can afford a multitude of roles.
When I see a player with retarded unlearned in-between positions, like a guy who can play CB and CM but not DM, or LW and LB, but not LWB, I cheat and edit him to be capable in those positions.
>>64060088
even if they're playing an attacking wb-esque role, they're still a fb.
calling a d l/r a wb is like saying amc with good finishing are strikers
>>64060175
Disgusting. Its not outrageous that they wouldn't be completely comfortable in that position so I don't ahte that they aren't automatically perfect in that position but I do agree they should be linked enough that anyone natutal or accomplished at DL and ML should at least be competent at WBL
>>64060229
But if for no better reason than for clarity of role you shouldn't use that term when talking FM unless you are actually talking about someone playing the fullback role. Its completely misleading to say fullback when you are actually talking about somebody who is playing a wingback role.
>>64060329
It's completely fucking misleading to say wing back when you're talking about a d l/r.
>>64060366
Not when they're playing the role of wingback it isn't.

role>position when it comes to description
why is that so hard for you to understand?
>>64060584
i guess I have to start calling all of my AMCs strikers now since they play ss.
>>64060597
If you say shadow striker or AMC then everyone knows you are referring to a player in the AMC slot and the role they perform.
If you say wingback then people may be unsure as to if you are referring to DL/R or WBL/R but they know what type of player you're referring to and the role they are performing.
If you say fullback then the assumption is that they are DL/R AND are playing the fullback role because otherwise you wouldn't call them a fullback since that is misleading and not the role they are fulfilling.
Like I say its primarily a matter of clarity about roles and your way is misleading.

>If you say wingback then people may be unsure

wow which one is confusing
it's literally just idiots going fullback=fullback role
when it doesn't
just like saying you play with a dm doesn't mean it's always a dm-d
and striker isn't always AF-a
fullback is a fucking position
and also a role
if you say someone is a fullback -> they're d l/r
is you say someone plays as a fullback -> they're playing as (limitied) fullback
saying wing back is literally more confusing since it can be applied to 3 different roles each in two seperate positions.

Well then how about improve their standards, rather than lowering ours?
>>64060752
NO FUCKING NO
By your logic of fullback = the position instead of the role, that means you can have a fullback wingback, which is confusing. That's why when referring to "fullback", that has to refer to the role. For the positions, RWB/RB works fine.
>>64060881
>>64060889
>4chan
>high standards
Sure thing.
>>64060889
what a horrifying thought
>>64060910
You can't have a fullback wingback, since it would go [role][position] (ie you woudln't have a striker false nine, but a false nine striker makes sense)
But again, if you're asking about roles, 99% of the time you get more in depth.
You don't go "lel look at my godlike cm"
You'd say something like "look at my great roaming playmaker, he makes all the passes"
And a wingback fullback is literally how it works in real life. You have full backs in defense who stay level with the centrebacks, but push forward in possession.
Let's look at it my way
Fullback = Wide Defender regardless of position
>can be applied to every player regardless of their mentality
>which is exactly how every other position works (ie: bwm and ap are both called central midfielders, defensive forward and target man both forward/striker, etc.)
Wingback = Wide DM
>see above, it's the same
and yours
Wingback = Wingback roles
>1 position + half of another
>blurry lines all over the place, since a player could literally be a wingback one day and not the next just based on the match plan
Fullback = Only (Limited) Fullback Role
>literally no one has played like this since the mid 90s
>only applies to half of the position, midgame your player magically turns into a wingback when you want more aggressive possession
But yeah, mine is more confusing.
>>64061047
>Wide Defender regardless of position
that 'position' should be role, sorry.
>2nd in the league
>5 games left against 3 mediocre teams, 1 good team, and the worst in the league

>how to pirate FM or where to get it cheap

Replies and conversations are quite predictable, you can look at a post and know what the replies will be before you scroll down. Especially regarding tactics, I think a decent number of us are actually quite (autistic) good at FM and know how to build a team and get the team playing how you want, but any tactical discussion is squandered in favour of lazy posts like >Fullbacks, >Wingers, and >It's your tactics.

No, just the most retarded ones are getting these replies. Unfortunately, if someone has a working tictac they rarely ask for advice here, and subsequently bad tictacs almost always roll on around those aspects.
FM isn't that complicated, if you know what you are doing.

Anyone fancy a kickabout at Carlisle United?
FM2016 on Steam: 54,99 euro
FM2015 on Steam: 49,99 euro
How can there be only 5 euro difference between a game that's over a year old, and probably way outdated compared to the new, fresh, innovative game full of new features that's only been released for a few weeks?

idk it's just some straighforward quick hoofball tactic but it is inconsistent as shit and I am conceding super retarded goals
think I have to get rid off offside trap first of all
>>64068243
>hoofball is inconsistent
I wonder why

Hello Tuchel.
>Exploiting a certain flank
>Getting stuck in
Are you conceding too many goals? With those tactics it looks like so.
>>64068300
Inconsistent in a way that sometimes defense is super tight but I don't have too many chances (what I actually aim for) and sometimes I am down 3 goals within the first half for random reasons. And it's not about the quality of the opponent.

I was the better team in 5 of the last 6 matches, now we're not gonna make the play-offs. I hate this game so fucking much. I just wish I had the strength to never play again.

that's funny, the results imply you were the equal team in 4 of the last 6 matches
