I have a fairly determined squad, obviously some less than others. However a lot of my younger players with higher determination have seen that attribute plummet. I get that the squad's overall determination effects this but how are you meant to raise the determination when it keeps pulling the...

Linked to Arsenal in real life. Signed him on my Arsenal save for £4.5m from Atalanta Utd and immediately worth £30m in my squad. Does a really good job as a squad player, natural at CM and CAM. Will make me a tidy profit when I decide to sell on. Would recommend as I imagine he'll go to most PL...

Anyone having problems with players that are not playing as much demanding more game time? Sometimes really unreasonably. When you put your foot down you make them unhappy and end up with a load of his teammates sticking up for him. You put your foot down and they become unhappy. It's really...

Just wanted to say how much success I'm having with Danny Welbeck as a poacher, Marco Reus AML inside forward, Mesut Ozil AMC attacking midfielder (attack) and Alexis Sanchez AMR inside forward. They're scoring goals for fun. Oxlade-Chamberlain started before Reus came back to fitness and did so...

Got a release clause for £21m, absolute bargain. Problem is, he thinks Arsenal are beneath him and I tried to persuade him to come in a conversation but with no success. Firstly, this is pretty unrealistic because in real life I think Arsenal would have a good chance of signing Reus if they met...

I've noticed that when I scout a lot of regens the report comes back saying they're injury prone. It's quite common and it's always the really good ones. I'm very hesitant to buy injury prone players for obvious reasons, especially if they want a hefty fee for a potentially world class player...

Hard drive crashed and had to get a new one. Luckily Most things on my PC were backed up on to an external hard drive but not my saves for FM14. Does anybody know if Steam backs them up on your Steam account and if they do, how can I access them? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

one of my best player rarely responds to anything said in teamtalks etc. and his body language in matches is often complacent. i don't want to lose him but he doesn't really ever perform that well. i'm aware that this is my first season in the save and i've taken over a big club and probably...

Anybody got any cheeky release clauses we can take advantage of? It's not technically a release clause but West Brom sell Claudio Yacob for ?10.25m if anyone is looking for a CM/DM that can play at most clubs.

Have they seen him play?! Disgustingly underrated. Quite a few Arsenal players haven't had any improved attributes from last season despite having progressive seasons last season. Walcott, Gibbs, Ramsey (been playing well since January 2013), Koscielny, to name a few.

has anybody noticed that when the end of the year comes and the best player awards and shortlists come out it says that each manager gets a vote etc. and in every year I never get to vote. it's been like this in past FMs and has always baffled me why. i get asked who i think will win in press...

In England the playable leagues only go down as far as Blue Square Bet North/South. I'm just curious to know if any teams can go up and down from them to the unplayable leagues? I would like to see my hometown club (don't laugh) Maidstone United go up in the leagues but they're in the Isthmian...

Just started a save with Middlesbrough, any tips for good championship players (not too pricey) that will help me push for promotion. Can't stand players with weak mental stats though.
