Been offered the England job so I've accepted. Will divide my time between Atletico and England.
Gaming Football Manager 2022
- Thread starter FC Ronaldo
- Start date
Looks like it's going well, don't you start with a 12 point deduction as well?
That's very unrealistic. Sir Gareth will be in that job for life.
It's been Mourinho and Sarri for me. Sarri just retired.
Yeah I took the challenge up as a change from the usual first-game Utd save, it's been fun.
In my game, Klopp and Pep swapped jobs.
Liverpool have both Mbappe and Haaland

That's fair. Literally can't buy any good players for even 150m which is fecked.
Same in my journeyman save. Plus they have Salah, Van Dijk, Trent, Robertson, Camavinga, Rice, Gravenberch, Bailey, Mané, Zouma, Elliott and a couple of wonderkids.Liverpool have both Mbappe and Haaland
Meanwhile, my newly promoted Swansea side is trying to compete with a wage budget of £400k.
With Vaduz we finished 3rd again in our 2nd season in the top flight. A bit closer to the top this time and just 1 point away from Basel in 2nd. Secured our 50th Liechtensteiner Cup as well.
Managed to fix my striker by reverting to the box 4-4-2, he then got injured for the rest of the season and I had to call up a 1 star youth player for the rest of it.
Lazio are by far the worst people who have ever existed. Knocked us out of Conference League in the semi-finals again.
They're also now managed by Nuno, who proceeded to insult the level of officiating in the Swiss league. Proper numpty.

Wow, stacked. Are they winning everything? Still with Klopp?
My FM always crashed out after the latest update. Cant moveforward just for a day. Any similiar thing happen here? Anyone knows a solution?
Anyone up for a Ralf Rangnick Protege challenge?
- Must start at lowest Red Bull club; either New York Red Bulls or Red Bull Bragantino (Brazil).
- If possible, transition from either of these two clubs to Red Bull Salzburg and then RB Leipzig in that order.
- Must not use the U23's at all. Any players up to 18 and under play in the U18's. Anyone 18 and over must either be promoted to the main squad or placed out on loan.
- Must utilise a gegenpress with high line, high pressure and absolutely must use 4-2-2-2.

They've won a lot to be fair:
- 3 European Cups in a row between 2022 and 2025 but went out in the quarters last year. Then they won the league in 23, 24 and 26.
- Tuchel is managing them and Klopp is at Real Madrid. Pep is managing Arsenal, Mancini at Chelsea and Rodgers is at City.
- Ole is still at the wheel at United! He won the league in 2025 and finished second in the Prem and the Champions league last year. Has just won back to back FA Cups as well.
Finished 3rd again in Serie A with Napoli. Same amount of points as last season. Another UCL win though somehow. Took out Man City (injury time winner) Milan who were down to 9 men in the first half and then Real Madrid in the semi final. Beat Juventus in the final 4-3 after extra time.
I took Norway to the semi finals of the Euros but lost to Denmark. Haaland who I haven’t ever really managed, scored 10 goals in 5 games! He is just a cheat code.
I have the skin which has the simulate result option so I’ve decided to add another manager to the save and simulate the matches (not the big ones) to see what I can achieve. Might venture into Russia or Turkey. Though not sure what I do if I end up playing against myself.
On a random note. Not a slight on Cole Palmer but it’s only 2024 and he’s Real Madrids best player and currently top scorer in La Liga.

City have Haaland, Mbappe and Felix on mine. I actually beat them in the CL with Atletico which I was chuffed with.
Mbappe is at United and Haaland is at PSG for me. City took Adeyemi from Milan on mine which I was grateful for as he's ridiculous.
In my save, Mbappé went to Juve and I bought Haaland. Thrid season now and Liverpool just bought Felix for €163M.Yeah I took the challenge up as a change from the usual first-game Utd save, it's been fun.

Finally beat Liverpool in a CL final after three tries. They had 95+ league points the first two seasons but they fell off a cliff this season so I won the quadruple. Not really anywhere else to go with Utd now. Might sell a few old timers and get a young team going for a year or two and then do a journeyman if I can be arsed.
I keep getting a crash and can't go past a certain date.
Have you tried to holiday past it?
Yep, just crashes. I used the original skin but no luck. May uninstall/reinstall it.
Anyone played FM Mobile 22?
It was £8.99, so I thought why not & bought it on my iPad. It’s much better than I expected. Obviously not as good as the PC game but I’m enjoying it.
Would like to know other peoples thoughts/tips etc..?

32 goals in 17 games for AI controlled Immobile
Oh yeah, I know all about that fecker.32 goals in 17 games for AI controlled Immobile
Fighting the board every time I want to buy/loan a player is very tedious.
Sure, I am now struggling with the registration because I've only signed 1 Swiss player this season but still...
Edit: 1 game into the season and I've screwed up the registration for the whole season by starting a player I was selling and subbing on another. 2 slots down the drain for the whole season.

I had last years, but got bored quickly as the difficulty seemed to be really scaled back. Had Sunderland top of the prem in a few seasons, signing players I wouldn't be able to get anywhere near normally.
This happen to me too. Cant get past December 8th 2024. Its been like that since new upgrade. Dont know the cause either.
Weirdly enough it’s the same date for me. I’ve managed to get past it. For me I had to retire the other manager I created (just took over a club too) and then holiday past a couple games.
But I don’t think it’s the fix because I loaded up my back up save, did the same thing but it crashed at the same point.
Martinez has turned from a god into complete shit. Gets 3 or 4 chances a game and fluffs them all. 
Thanks. Will try your solution. I havent got any solution yet, tried everything from tweak the steam setting and nvidia setting, clear preferences, running default skin etc, still no luck so far.
Thinking about un/reinstall the game, but 5gb download data just not the thing i will wait right now.
I've interviewed for the Newcastle job three times now and been rejected twice. The first time I was manager at Partizan but I rejected them. Now I've won multiple titles and they're the ones rejecting me despite being a mid-table team for the last 8 years

I've been offered the chance to take over at United at the end of the season. Feels a bit obvious but also tempting as it'll be a completely different team.
Turned down Utd. Their finances did not look great.
Update on my third season of the save and my first with Arandina FC.
We are top in January, but the pressure is on. 3 points clear but signing 19 new players has taken its toll and we are now $1 million in the red. That is not good at this level, but I am working within the wage budget and the squad desperately needed an overall.
I am down to just 3 GK in the squad now! I have managed to sell 5 of them, a new one leaving every 5-6 weeks and have now got my scouts searching for young players that could possibly grow beyond this level.
I have two good CBS and two good CMs that could potentially go up with me, but the other options are shaky at best. Full backs are poor and attacking players are only 2 and half stars.
Despite that, my big Nigerian CF is on 15 goals for the season, and my English winger with terrible stats is tearing it up! I think he only has four stats in the double figures but he is doing the business at this level!
No new badges, as the club can’t afford them. We need to go up now!

Wouldn't that be one more reason to take on the job en rebuild them?
Yeah but something about it being Utd made me think I'd get bored quickly. Trying to avoid doing my usual things.
Alright, I can understand that. I'm a bit the opposite though, even when I start a save game not with Manchester United I only ever stick to it for a couple of seasons before I'm drawn back to a Manchester United save game.
Just shithoused a Copa Del Rey win against Madrid. I'd just come off the back of a penalty shootout loss to Juve in the CL Quarter Final so my players were dead. We won 2 - 1 with an xG of 0.45.
