Yeah, I was flush with cash because all the Continentals were overpaying for my money making ventures that summer.

But still, I planned on using him as a BBM that would win back the ball and help distribute to my AMC or WBR and crash the box. He just never worked out. He would disappear in matches and get nervous a lot and make mistakes. I don't know how a player who dominated a WC final would get nervous playing QPR on a Tuesday night, but whatever.

It's actually pretty true to life so I can't complain.

>>66903616
>when to have youth intakes

They only happen once a year senpai, they're automatic.
>>
>>66903616

Youth intakes occur once a year and it's automatic on a set day.

You can see the dates here:
http://www.passion4fm.com/football-manager-2016-newgens-dates/

As a general rule, it's toward the end of the season. Leagues that play in summer will have youth intake dates in the fall. Leagues that play in the winter will have youth intake dates in the spring. Only a general rule of thumb.

desu lad, I doubt that Pulisic will ever become a champions league tier player.

People vastly overrate how much more a young player will grow after making it to the senior squad - people are inclined to think "he's already useful at 17? he will be great in 5 years!" but that only works in FM. I feel that players only rarely develop much further after getting into the senior team.

Players mostly only mature in the way that they play, they have more experience and it helps them improve their decision making and makes them more consistent as they develop a more stoic approach to the game. Some players also develop physically until their 20s, but ability-wise, a player won't be much different at 23 than he was at 19. the skillset of the player, his technical ability, what he's capable of remains largely the same, the player can just perfect his skills a little if he's dedicated and can work on the mental aspect of the game etc


Think about it. Think about every very talented player in the last 10 or so years, think about how good they were in their debut year and compare those performances to what they could do after 5 years. its mostly the same. arrows dont exist in real life.


so, it really boils down to: does pulisic have the skills to make it at a CL club?

I'd say that he does not. he has a good work ethic, he has flair and he really tries his best, but he's just not good enough. his playstyle is one dimensional, he lacks vision and he has literally 0 end product. his finishing is shit (even though he scored today) and his passing is atrocious desu, given how much we work on passing accuracy and pass power/weight.

he cannot cross, he cannot pass, he does not think enough when he's playing. when he has the ball on the wings he just runs down the line and hoofs it in without ever looking into the box. he does not check who's around him before he receives a pass etc.


he won't ever make it, the best he can do is play at a club like stoke
>>
>>66906322
t. Felix Passlack
>>
>>66906368
to be 100% serious: Passlack is much less talented and gifted, but I expect him to do better careerwise than Pulisic. Pulisic is mostly a meme player if you look at his capabilities, Passlack is a hard worker who has more stamina than Großkreutz (who is underrated, by the way) and he's solid defensively. Bundesliga clubs love players like him so I can see him play as a fullback for a >Schalke tier club.

>>
>PEE-KAY
>>
>>66906777
Reminder that attributes don't just go from 1 to 20 - they are actually decimals. A player with a rating of 13 in passing could have anything between 12.6 and 13.4 passing (increments of 0.2). So the scale is much more refined than just from 1-20, they could easily just switch to a 1-100 system but I think it's better this way - its pretty ridiculous to have numbers from 1 to 100 because a 1 point difference is nothing at that point

Took them from bumbling mid-table shitters to a solid ever present top 4 side, won the league without spending a fortune and had to put up with non-stop shit from retard Arsenal fans who wouldn't know what a football was if it smashed them in the face. It's the same fucking merry-go-round every single season

>"In Wenger we trust, title is ours this year, just watch us win the CL without even spending money"
>"WONGA OUT! WHY DOESN'T HE FUCKING SPEND ANY MONEY!? WE NEED A REAL MANAGER!"

They're on his back constantly then have the cheek to leave matches early because they're dominating 4-0 and they've already won. The only time they stay until the final whistle is when they get beat so they can have an excuse to complain. Maybe he has outstayed his welcome and should have went somewhere else a few years back, but the fact remains that without him Arsenal would have been completely irrelevant and Arsenal fans don't get it.
>>
>>66911956
At this point, I want them to get a coach like Mouyes who absolutely takes them to shit in 1 year. At least then they'll shut the fuck up about how bad their good coach was
>>
>>66911956
idk man they should spend more money and change the manager if they are finishing 4th for a decade. Maybe it's just the La Liga mentality.
>>
>>66911956
Damn makes me remember about that Arsenal-Moneycorp in CL. A club who's notorious for having more fans in away games than home games (Louis II is never even close to full) was signing louder than the whole Emirates that didn't even bother make a damn noise in protest. Not even plastics, cardboard fans at best FFS.

>Berbagod
>>
>>66911999
Ah but that will be when they all turn into Arsene fans again and act like they never said a bad word about him. The worst thing is the constant flip-flopping usually based on a handful of recent results.
>>
>>66912001
The problem is this. >>66912095

Other than that, as Chelsea, United and Liverplopp have shown, that CL place isn't something to be taken for granted. And you can always be a mid-table shitter
>>
>>66911999
I keep getting the feeling they're going to end up just like United. They'll bring someone in who'll spend a huge amount (because the fans demand it) and they'll drop out of the top 4 or really struggle to make it. A lot of them think CL is a given for them because it's all they've ever known and with a new manager they'll take that next step and win it, but when you've had a manager that long at a club it's really difficult for someone new to come in and take them to that next level (depending on the manager obviously). I think they'll be in for a real rude awakening when he does leave.

>>66912001
I agree that something does need changed, but you have managers who do better with less to spend (or who buy players cheap) because if they don't work out there isn't as much pressure and you can easily move on from them, but Arsenal fans scrutinize every deal he makes and expect them all to be world beaters purely because he has picked up some good players for cheap. They see other clubs spending money and they want the same, but on the other hand it's putting enormous pressure on Wenger to deliver if he doesn't like spending big, but he feels he has to to appease them. We both know how many meme players there are that are a fortune purely because they're hyped to fuck regardless of their actual ability so he'll buy one to get them off his back while disregarding someone who could have done something because he wouldn't get a game because of the Hollywood signing they made.

>>66912064
Yeah I remember that. They're embarrassing as fuck, I remember when Adebayor celebrated in front of them and they went wild. If they had stormed the pitch they wouldn't have done anything anyway because they're pussies. You watch any Arsenal home game and you think they're holding a 90 minute silence before you hear that shit "ARSE-NAL!" "chant", one of the only two they have.

i got two questions familia, i'd appreciate if someone could answer them.

> is it possible to play defensive football with AMR and AML?

two of my best players are attacking wingers and here's my problem: i win the treble comfortably in every season, but as soon as i get in the champions league, i get my ass handed to me. i can't seem to work out a tactic that would work against better teams, with AML and AMR in it. would setting their individual instructions to close down more / tackle hard help with them doing more defensive work? obviously if i come up against fucking real madrid, those cunts can't just wait up there the whole game, while we get raped. my midfield is deep lying player on defend, cm on defend and advanced playmaker on attack. in the league i move that advanced playmaker to the AMC.

> are release clauses ever good for anything, from manager's point of view?

like, do you ever put them in the contract yourself or do you try to avoid them at any cost? would they work for example if a player tries to force a move and then there's an option to tell him that you'll let him go, if the other club matches your evaluation of him or something along those lines. would it work in this case, if i didn't let him go, unless someone matched his release clause?

thanks, familia.
>>
>>66912621
>are release clauses ever good for anything, from manager's point of view?
not really. but players do like them, so if you're signing someone for what you know is likely to be a short-term deal (ie. he's 33 and your team is rapidly improving), it can be a sort of bargaining chip to get them to accept a slightly lower wage

I guess I'll go with the old fart, much cheaper, is EU and I suppose he'll be decent enough until I need replacement in 2 years or something. One year plus one in option feels like a decent deal; he'll be good immediately and if he turns to poo I'm not stuck with him.
>>
>>66912621
tell them to manmark players, use the right mentality to make sure they drop enough (defensive, counter).

on defensive, they'll drop so deep that it makes next to no difference.
