    The Ask Raikan thread...

    Quick question. I finally pestered the Arsenal board to increase the junior coaching level (they denied me 4 times earlier), and the note in the inbox said the junior coaching has been increased to 'Excellent' in the Information - Facilities screen. Now, question is, its still at 'Very Good'...

    Do things go wrong from the very beginning?

    Their lack of knowledge with a club they are brought into will last upto a season at most. From the looks of it, it only seems to regard how well they know a player to offer him position-specific training (ie: telling someone to run through the middle or dictate play). As for Match Preparation...

    Why is Barcelona better than Real Madrid?

    Youth system, quality of players bought in and trained throughout the years. The fact they have the best player in the world ontop of numerous other worldclass players for their respective positions. The most telling fact is that given the amount of money Barca has at their disposable, they...

    Do things go wrong from the very beginning?

    Coaches generally effect quality of training, although they may also provide a boost to a players motivational capabilities in-game (whether they react favorably to getting their **** whipped). I think having a quality coach who is knowledgable in tactical experience will help get your team...

    Signing players from Asia, boost to finances?

    It is all relative anyways, dependent on your club's reputation and the boardroom's ability to negotiate business deals. At most you will probably see an increase in 10 million or so from merchandising sales, again, depending on club and player reputation. I signed Shinji Kagawa (best japanese...

    Best Free Transfer?

    Kagawa Third Season! (Anybody else note on his Information screen that he doesn't like playing in the Bundesliga and wants to play for Barca?)

    Arsenal 2rd season

    Sagna will be solid well into his 30s with his stats, he's turned 30 for me and is still going strong! Gibbs is rock solid too, but his use in the England squad depends on who is the coach (Mancini rarely plays him in mine). Even then, Gibbs is homegrown so that gives him added value. If you...

    Football Manager 2012 : Arsenal Thread

    My team's been off to a slow start this year, with only 7 points in 4 games (lost to Liverpool and tied Tottenham at home). I think I blew $32.5mil on Ryad Bouzdebouz (sp) since he came in and injured himself for 3 months! Thankfully getting Shinji Kagawa on a free will make fans forget about...

    scouts, *** manager. players?

    Most staff tend to have variable stats that change, so if you can't get these people then simply search for an ***. Man using Scouting Potential Scouting Current Ability, Motivational (good for helping with team-talks), Discipline (I think this helps with keeping your players in line), and...

    Judging player potential

    They judge potential based on who your best player is for each position. If you have a worldclass player like Messi as the best in your position, players who would normally be really good for most teams (3 1/2 to 4 stars) would be average to below average (2 1/2 to 2 stars). There is also a...
