I've always noticed this with FM but have never asked. I have a MC that I really want to re-sign. He wants 7,250 and the board won't let me offer more than 6,250. Yet, I can go grab a free and offer him 13K. This also happens with coaches all of the time and it drives me mad. The logic...

I've wanted to ask this question for years. Not sure why I waited this long. As the title suggests, what do you do when you have players that you really like but want way more than what you can afford to pay? Do you try and sell them in the summer before their final contract year? do you try...

I have been managing a smaller Russian club for about 7 years. it was my 3rd job in the game. I took them to top 3 in the Premier League 3 out of the past 4 years despite having the 11th largest payroll. For fun the other day, I decided to hit save, then apply for an opening with Stade...

I am in about my 12th season. Up until now, my scouts were constantly finding me decent players. Typically my problem was having too many good players to choose from. Now, most of the time, they can't find anyone and when they do, they are just 'recommended'. When I go myself and look at the...

So I had been sitting in first place in the Russian Premier League. Had a somewhat questionable loss to a really good team and was losing my grip. Then, up 4-1 with 20 minutes to go to a 14th place team, my defenders and GK decide to just **** the bed completely. I go nuts and send them all...

I did a search and saw discussion on some of my questions but no answers. I have 3 questions regarding potential ability stars: 1. If potential ability star ratings go down, can they ever go back up while on your team? I've picked up some young kids with 4 star potential and over a season or...

I am not an expert on European football but I've played FM forever, since the first iteration. My biggest question that I never seem to know how to figure out is "how big is your senior squad supposed to be?". Right now I have 25 players on that page with about 8 available for my reserves...

I got a young kid for a free and he developed into a super stud. His value was listed at 1.8M. I was actively trying to sell him to clubs for about 2.5 to 3M because he said he wouldn't re-sign with me. However, everytime I would go in to set his value, the drop down would only allow a max of...

I don't use the editor (feels like cheating for me), so those who do could probably answer this. Say I see some player who is 18/19 years old and is pretty solid but his (insert trait here) is pathetic, like say his agility is 3. My scouts have him rated as a potential 5 star but probably...
