Deleting the "Settings" folder has solved the XML parsing problem, but it did something strange to my game. Prior to deleting the Settings folder, my highest paid player was on 140k/week, now, after deleting the Settings folder, I have 7 players on >200k/week! All of my carefully negotiated...

Please delete this thread: http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/f71/coaches-star-ratings-different-for-youth-team-t49782.html The problem I posed in this thread was merely the result of my preseason fitness training not utilising my attack/defence coaches. The fact that their ratings dropped to two...

Question: Some of my first-team players have a poor relationship with certain players in my reserve and youth teams as a result of personality differences they encountered whilst tutoring. Could this damage the harmony of my team in future seasons when I try to incorporate the younger players...

Question: As a national team manager, is it possible to rest my players between matches during an international tournament? If so, how? I am currently manager of both a club team and a national team. At the moment, I am managing the Italian U19s in the European championship and several of my...

Thanks to both of you for the above information. Even though there is some disagreement between the two of you, I can use this. One further question: Is it a waste of time to try to negotiate a feeder club agreement with a club that is outside the nations that I have loaded? I see from the...

Question: When the board gives me the opportunity to suggest a potential feeder club, what factors determine whether or not the suggested club will accept the offer to become a feeder club? As you probably know, after you have been a manager at a single club for several consecutive seasons the...

Question: When a player attacks a corner from the deep, how do I instruct them to hold the ball until their teammates have returned to an onside position or, alternatively, how do I instruct my advanced players to return to an onside position more quickly? When my team has a corner kick, I...

Thanks to everyone for the quick responses. Based on what some of you have told me, I think I'll let Robinho's contract run out and hope that continued good results on the pitch keep the squad happy. If his salary demands weren't so high (160k/week + goal/appearance bonuses), and he wasn't...

Question: If I choose not to renew the contract of an underperforming but popular player within my squad will I encounter morale or performance problems with the players who disagree with my decision? Does anyone have experience with this situation? I'm managing Man City and I don't want to...

I'm currently managing Man City and I am looking for youth players to recruit from other EU countries. After looking at the statistics for a European U19 championship qualifying match involving the German U19s, I identified a couple of 16 year old players I wanted to scout. Unfortunately the...
