******* CORNERS. Seriously. GOD **** ******* CORNERS.

Dustin Tip is good enough for the average Eredivisie match, I'd reckon!

The Dutch/Danish language bug and the set piece/scramble bug are the *only* really annoying ones.

Ouch. Shame about Veltman. He's a class player. Especially sour that he's walking out of the ArenA for free. Such is the lot in the Netherlands. Other than that, it's going well!

I'm enjoying it! Although the "players don't learn Dutch, just English" bug (HOW did they even introduce that bug?! Don't they just copy-paste code? :-/ ) and the set-piece/scramble bug are annoying. Nevertheless, I still haven't mastered FM14 in the way I mastered FM12 (skipped FM13), so...

Switching up the roles might work, too. From where are you shooting? If your players are shooting from far outside the box, there might be something wrong with the movement of players/passing of the ball.

They wouldn't be, if it weren't for the set-piece/scramble bug/glitch/thingamajig.

I don't know... PSG just offered 6.2 million up front (+ 20 procent of profit on sale) for a 2.2 million valued, 19 year old, wrecked by injuries Zivkovic. :P Although in general, it's a bit harder. I have managed to sell players for over, or close to market value though.

That's actually a brilliant idea. Taking older players with good mental stats and , them tutor players. I will steal this idea! Anyway, considering my issues with the "no Dutch language" bug, I will now slowly start to focus on Dutch (language) players only. In my own game, I became champions...

Seems the most likely. I could believe some players refuse to learn the language, but 15+ in total? Unlikely! I'll download the free version of FMRTE to see whether they've learned the languages, but it just doesn't show. EDIT. They haven't learned the language. This aspect of (my) game is...

Haha, you bought Nathan Rutjes? He's something of a cult hero IRL (mainly due to the somewhat silly surname, and his... er... choice of hairdo). In my game he's quite ****, though. Why the purchase? The results are amazing. KUTGW!

Some can, some can't. It gets even stranger: players at AI teams do seem to learn new languages. Daley Blind (to OM) now speaks French. Van Rhijn (to Real) now speaks Spanish. It does not really seem to affect anything negatively. My team seems to be a multicultural wonderland!

I had a look at my staff. Not a single foreign member learned (basic) Dutch. This makes it 15 odd personell who, after 2+ years, do not speak a single word of the local language. Personalities range from (fairly) loyal to professional, to honest to balanced.

Foreign players don't seem to learn new languages. I know from previous FMs that, depending on the player personality, IT couLd take a few years. Now I have (fairly) professional players, who've been at the club for 3+ years, who haven't learned a single word of Dutch. This includes...

Zivkovic. Managing FC Groningen (the team he starts with), and while he's not doing bad, he's never going to be the beast a lot of others have seen him become. Had some horrible injuries. The bloke is still only 19, but I don't see him becoming the destroyer of defenses he's meant to be, sadly.
