Sakho is definitely on my radar; we'll see how much money I get come next season. The only Danny Wilson I can find is a 54 year-old coach and I can't find Krystov... Thanks anyway...anyone else have any ideas?

I'm managing Manchester United and I just lost Nicolas Otamendi to Barcelona after I matched the contract his agent asked for, doubled the signing fee, and, finally, he snubbed me, claiming he deserved a better salary. God knows what Barca offered him! Anyway, I'm not worried about my team's...

Hey there, Astonmatu! Great work; I'm both thoroughly impressed and more than a little intimidated! ^^) I was wondering how long this took you in real time...and perhaps a rough estimate of how often you play. I ask because I've wanted to do something similar for a while but the task just seems...

This is probably an issue with a relatively straightforward solution (or so I hope) but every time I go to start a new game, the screen goes ahead to the wizard/select leagues page and I see the "select editor data" tab up on the top left but it is shaded out so as to make it unclickable. What's...

For the life of me I cannot figure out how to actually save my changes in the data editor and load them up in-game! Can anyone just briefly explain the logistics of how this works?

Ishak Belfodil and Daniel Pacheco are both youngsters who are going places (and hella cheap atm) but they won't provide any fireworks for the next few years...then again, I haven't used either of them so I don't know exactly how quickly they'd develop. David Suazo (30) and Ewerthon (28) are...

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL in my dreams, bro.

will do. i don't know why i blanked on that...i've told strikers to learn moves before, lol. i guess i was curious since strikers like adebayor and dzeko (and recently rooney) are famed for being good with their heads, whether there were strikers famous for their lobbing abilities.

ppm? ppm? doesn't ring a bell. oO)

I'm wrapping up my second season at the helm of Manchester United and I'm trying to find a long-term replacement for Evra to purchase at the start of next season. I would love to find a wing back with similar qualities to Rafael just on the left. Although I occasionally play Wes Brown or Owen...

I'm trying to find a top-flight striker (doesn't matter what type of striker as long as he's worthy of man utd) that is known for his ability to lob the opposition keeper. I've been wondering whether such a player exists or if lobbing is too rare/random a talent...

as i suspected! potential ability is a set ceiling whereas potential rating is a set trajectory given the current conditions. cheers, eddlad! if anyone knows anything else or disagrees, let us know!

I use FM Genie Scout and I'm wondering if the potential positional ratings for a player change depending on his current training, workload, experience, etc? I ask because certain players (i.e. Alphonse Areola, Federico Macheda) have extremely high potential ability that for some reason or other...

I forgot to mention I also have Scholes and Anderson; would that affect any of your recommendations? Also, do you think Rio will play better set to Stopper? I've had him set to Ball Playing but he's been underachieving. And one last thing: Salvio's definitely got potential but with players...

manchester united i'm playing manchester united using a 4-4-2 formation but i don't think it's the most effective use of my squad. unfortunately, many times when i experiment, i end up getting outplayed and am currently underperforming. help! GK - Van der Sar/Hugo Lloris/Kuszcak RB-Wes...
