I know that in FM20 there were skins you could download and activate at any time in the save to his the attributes and just use R/A/G like I explained, I’d imagine the same this year too.Interesting... can you change midway through a save to have that? Or does it have to be at the start of a save. A problem with the longevity of an FM save for me is always being able to just look at stats and not really needing to use scout reports. Would change a lot. Only thing that was putting me off was basing my opinions on seeing the little dots zip around the screen, but as you say, there's all the other reports. Gonna try it.
Wasn't aware of it but now you mention it I did sign this 6 ft 8 CB for £27k who's been dominant for me. Got 3 goals in 8 games.Your thoughts on heading being OP?
I'm finding it's incredibly easy to win headers from crosses, though this doesn't always translate into scoring. Me and some mates did a draft last night and my tactic was basically to set up crossing the ball into Ronaldo which led to around an average of 10 headers on target per game, maybe with 1 in 10 actually finding the back of the net.
My mate brought on Andy Carroll at one point who proceeded to scare the shit out of me until I decided to man mark him - which actually seems to nullify the heading problem a bit.
Corners? Yeah I litcherally had to set up my defenders to man mark the tallest players or I'd concede constantly.
It's the same in my career mode but I don't have the right players to take advantage of it.
Woof. Let's get Ole to show Maguire some of his tapesWasn't aware of it but now you mention it I did sign this 6 ft 8 CB for £27k who's been dominant for me. Got 3 goals in 8 games.
Yeah, it's overly strong. I'm winning the Croatian league with ease with a team that should be bang midtable by playing shameless Moyes vs Fulham football.Your thoughts on heading being OP?

Should I invest in this, Sol?Wasn't aware of it but now you mention it I did sign this 6 ft 8 CB for £27k who's been dominant for me. Got 3 goals in 8 games.
I dunno, do you have 100 spare hours a year?Should I invest in this, Sol?
Yeah I just lost 2 - 1. They had 0.09 xG and I had 3.51. Made me even more annoyed.I don't like xG. It makes me even more angry when I lose to a team now if theirs is worse than mine
Had none so far!What are the job offers like on this one. I remember last year the offers whilst you were managing a side were few and far between.
How do you even find players at that level? Recruitment/scouting is something that has always put me off managing at low levels, it always seems extremely cumbersome.Got this guy for free from a random Indonesian team and he's been class. I'm top of the league with 8 games to go. Should hopefully win promotion to the Eredvisie. Bit torn on whether to stay and compete in a top league or to move on after this.
He popped up on my scouted players report. My scouts are crap and it costs a lot but I took a gamble on him based on the stats I could see (which wasn’t many).How do you even find players at that level?

I honestly think scouting stats are meaningless.He popped up on my scouted players report. My scouts are crap and it costs a lot but I took a gamble on him based on the stats I could see (which wasn’t many).
Limped to a 0 - 0 but NAC lost so I won the league! I wasn’t even expected to challenge.Absolute state of these results (against shite teams) when I just needed a win for the title. Always happens for me in FM, they just crumble. Now I have to beat the 3rd placed team away to guarantee it.
Wish I'd seen this before. Not bought a new version since FM18 and was intrigued by this year's version. Will wait for a Black Friday or Xmas deal and continue with my FM18 save I guess.Tweet

Anyone found a cheaper copy than £27.74?
So I‘ve taken the Partizan Belgrade job. I could’ve stayed at Helmond in the Eredivisie but I was likely in for a frustrating season trying to avoid relegation. Can at least fight for the title at Partizan even if the league quality is lower.Limped to a 0 - 0 but NAC lost so I won the league! I wasn’t even expected to challenge.
Fans are ecstatic and apparently they want to build a statue of me First trophy since 1982 for them. First one for me in my career.
I hope they tear down your statue.So I‘ve taken the Partizan Belgrade job. I could’ve stayed at Helmond in the Eredivisie but I was likely in for a frustrating season trying to avoid relegation. Can at least fight for the title at Partizan even if the league quality is lower.
Been using 4231 a lot myself, but now I just finished my first season mainly using 424What formation are you guys using so far? The usual 4231, that's been the staple for I don't even know how long in FM
Goodness me I'm very out of touch. Of the 14 players you mentioned, I've heard of 2Finished my second season with Newcastle coming second, winning the Euro Cup 2 (or whatever it’s called) and losing the FA cup final to an injury time winner for Liverpool.
Vandevoordt
Aarons Badashile Nianzou Thomas
Szobozial Moriba
Moukoko Wirtz Reyna
Sesko
Really young squad I’m hoping will develop over the coming season I’ve got the likes of Gravenberch and CalafiorI on the bench and the young right back from city Pedro Porro is class as well.
Weird top 4 with myself and Villa making it alongside Liverpool and Spurs. Liverpool are too good though, lost 1 game all season and won the league by 14 points.
I haven’t seen any of them in real life mate they’re mostly my usual go to FM players from previous games.Goodness me I'm very out of touch. Of the 14 players you mentioned, I've heard of 2
Yeh, I meant out of touch with FM mate. Figured they were the usual promising players on the game.I haven’t seen any of them in real life mate they’re mostly my usual go to FM players from previous games.
Moukoko is a young version of Messi who usually be comes a top player
I don’t think there is. I had Gordon on loan from Liverpool for Torquay and he was my top scorer in first division. They wouldn’t loan me any more players because I was playing him at striker and the wanted him to develop at RW.I had Shoretire on loan but didn’t play him much so he was recalled. Now when I try and sign someone else on loan from United it says they’re unwilling due to the poor relationship between the 2 clubs. Annoying. Is there any way to ‘repair’ this relationship because I’d love Hannibal and Amad
