    Help Starting A Fresh

    Hi Guys, I've had FM17 for a while but I'll be honest, I've barely touched it, I've just struggled to really enjoy FM the past few times other than the odd season here and there and I think I've worked out part of my problem. My games are never really set up with longevity in mind so after a...

    MS Surface Pro 3

    Hi All, Does anyone know if there's any decent custom skins that are possibly designed with the Surface Pro in mind? Or would you recommend just downloading a normal PC skin that you feel looks good? I've always just used the defaults but feel now I might try and find a nice custom one online...

    Starting at a club - Tips

    Hi guys, Basically the subject covers it and I couldn't find WJ's old post about starting at a club to refer to whether all of this is covered or not. But basically I want to explain what I do and wondered if what I put after, would benefit me a lot in the long run (I basically think I'm not...

    LLM Tips

    I'm thinking of trying to finally get at least into LLM on this game, as much as I enjoy the challenge of trying to do well in the top leagues (I'm not as good as others on here so I'd probably find winning the league with some teams who most would find it easy with). So I wondered if anyone had...

    Making my idea in FM

    This is gonna probably be a long post but I'm hoping for some advice with this...as I generally think I'm going to possibly get some roles wrong and hoping people could shed their views into how they would do it. To summarise I want to portray how I play FIFA, into FM. To quickly summarise...

    Injuries (Training)

    Alright guys, I'm not going to scream bug as I know there are plenty of injuries in real life, but I wonder what I could do to probably help myself. Pre-Season training injuries on one of my saves I've been incredibly unlucky and I haven't started the season yet. I'm 90% certain it is probably...

    Understanding Youth Players

    First of all, sorry for another Youth Players question (you guys must be sick of them), but I wanted a little clarification more than anything hopefully. I have found recently on FM I have mixed success with youth players and I'll be honest, I feel like it is 90% luck, for example I once had a...

    A New Challenger Awaits

    First of all Hi to anyone who reads this, a few members recommended me putting up a story of my own, so I thought I'd give it a go. I didn't want to start a new save just yet as I wasn't ready, so you'll be joining me 3 years into my career. It has already experienced some highs and lows but...

    What do you think?

    I wanted to see what some others thought about this as a tactic. To quickly summarise I chose this based on the squad I had at my disposal. My main two full backs are brilliant going forward, while the left back isn't great at defending, as a result I felt using them as an attacking pair could...

    How to Familiarise your Tactic quicker

    Hi All, Hopefully a nice quick easy question for everyone that is causing me a few issues recently, when starting a game, you obviously select your tactics, but I find they don't seem to find them familiar in time for the start of the season, by which time I would have hoped they'd be...

    Starting Unemployed - Advice

    Hi Guys, I always want to try this on FM, but I tend to find I normally have very little success (at least I haven't since FM08). I want to start a game unemployed with past playing experience as Automatic, I basically want to start at the bottom and work my way up until I can become...

    Contracts

    Hi Guys, Just wondering, do others sometimes find players 90% of the time make unreasonable contract demands when you want to sign them? I'm West Ham so I don't have the best budget due to debts and I ideally want to lower that, I've tried to sell some players to lower that, but then whenever...

    Tactic Help

    Apologies to the mod's this is going to be in multiple posts as the forum is saying I can't post this as one post regarding too many URL's! Hi Guys, I have an idea of a tactic I'd like to do, but I want to make sure I can play it before I even try it and end up over complicating it with...

    Getting more out of players

    Hi Guys, Just wondered if I have just got very lucky here, or if others find, they can get players who I would say are good but not world class to play well above what is expected of them. In my first year at West Ham Noble by ratings was the second best player in the whole Premier League...

    Second Season tips

    Hi Guys, I'm coming back off of what I would call a very successful first season at West Ham, I signed one player Etxeita from Bilbao and managed to finish 6th overall (I had a scary moment where I thought I may get Champions League football but performances dipped right at the end which was...
