Considering that the 4-2-3-1 is pretty common in FM and several elite teams enjoy using it (i.e., Real Madrid, Man City) I'm just curious what some of you like to do to counteract it. I personally use a 4-3-3 (i.e., 4-1-2-2-1, 4-5-1) with a deeper defensive line, counter-attacking, more direct...

Wow, nice job. I wouldn't have the patience to do that.

Would it be possible to revert my game back to the 12.0.4 patch? I'm a Mac/Steam user.

Aren't regen dates around March 24th or something?

I've noticed this, as well. I'm getting quite a few no reactions and "Angered" players.

Man Utd

Thanks!

My club was taken over and the incoming chairman informed me that hiring a new manager was always the intention (Carlo Ancelotti, no less), but "after much persuasion" I was kept and left with a £300M+ transfer budget. :D

What are the ranges for -8 and -9 on potential ability? I know that -10 is randomly assigned 170-200.

With Man Utd, in my second season I was taken over by a tycoon (yes, I nearly bankrupted Man Utd in my first year) and kept as manager I was given a £313M transfer budget. Since Messi had a minimum fee release clause of roughly £217M I decided to try to sign him. However, my board wouldn't...

Game editor built into the game itself, rather than as separate entities. Other sports simulation games allow the player to enable this through what's called "Commissioner Mode".

I've played as Man Utd quite a bit, and Rooney picked up five red cards in my last season, all from flagrantly bad challenges, not double bookings. Fining two weeks wages didn't make any difference in his behavior either.

Wow, never knew this.

I changed my club's kits and some financials but my game isn't recognizing the adjustments. Also, I noticed that the players are frozen in age, attributes, etc from the very beginning of the game. What am I doing wrong and how do I actually load the database from my current game, if at all...
