    FM 2014 list of good Lower League Players

    Ivan Bolado is a good striker on a free. Is on 2.5k wages for me, can do a good job in the championship but would probably sign for league 1 sides(and maybe even league 2). Vass is an excellent BWM who will sign for championship sides, can do a job for smaller prem teams. You can try getting...

    Fm14 Deal or No Deal thread: Please use when asking if you should buy player x or y

    City got Bernard in my save and United got Insigne. Bernard has been meh, Insigne is one of United's top performers - scoring and assisting for fun. I hear Ayew isn't exactly stellar in this FM but would be a good squad player for that price. Yarmolenko looks good but I haven't used him in a top...

    Unrealistic transfers

    Oh, let me tell you about stupid transfers. First, it's nearly impossible to sell someone unless he's not on the transfer list and a club is interested. Second, AI always makes insulting bids for them. And wages have no influence on that. For example, I signed Bolado on a free in my first season...

    What mediocre players are outperforming for you?

    Well, not exactly mediocre but some of the inferior players on my team performed better than their supposed superiors. Ward has been miles better than Hunt, Garvan has been my best performer in the midfield, Moxey has been my best LB and Michael Keane, who I got on loan and was rated 4th or 5th...

    Motherloving deal all over that. Worst case scenario you'll get a good squad player which is a good deal for that price.

    The most worst player in your team....

    Just about everyone on my Crystal Palace team. Worst offender is Jedinak, my captain and supposedly one of my best players. Gets sent off every other game regardless of my settings (I even stopped using "get stuck in" because if him.) Half a season in and he has 3 red cards. Couldn't even get...

    utd strikers

    Talk about spoiled. I squeezed 10 goals out of Chamakh and I'm only in December. As about the shots on goal problem - just about everybody has it, I've had 38 shots(22 on target) against Norwich, most from inside the box. Score was 1:1 try working the ball into the box and drill crosses, they...

    Crewe Alexandra has some talented kids, some on their last year on the contract.

    Lower league?

    You could sign half the Honduras team - they're usually cheap and don't want much in terms of wages. Noel Valladares, for example, has been great for my Crystal Palace team (Speroni had a horrible preseason so I had to sign someone decent and cheap). Most of them will be older but you can...

    need a good challenge to try!

    Try to win the World Cup with Moldova, it's my home country :P It'll take some years as you have to raise their profile first, so you can get decent regens for them. Kind of like the San Marino challenge but a little easier.

    Job Security

    That's probably it. It makes sense that the board of a relegation threatened club is trigger happy out of desperation. Same happened to me on last year's FM.

    Sheffield United

    I started with them before my friend dared me to manage Crystal Palace (we're both managing them and comparing results). I played 42121(complete wing backs, CD covering and LD stopper, regista, ancor man, CM advanced playmaker, 2IFs and a striker on support role) and I was doing pretty well. Of...
