Hi, I've recently been using the Genie Scout, and I was wondering how accurate/fixed the 'potential max attributes' section is (?) I play with a high defensive line, so I usually like my CBs to have at least 15 pace. I have a very talented defender (potential ability of 185), but his pace is...

Hi, I'm in my third season with Arsenal, and I'm currently utilising a 433 system as follows: -------------Szczesny Chambers(CWB/A)--Varane--Balanta(both default CB setting)--Kurzawa(CWB/A) -------------Samper (half-back/defend) ------Ramsey (APM/S)----Pogba(DLPM/S) Sterling...

Hi, I have a couple of 200PA regens coming through that I'm trying to develop to maximise their potential. I keep getting suggestions from my assistant manager to make them focus on particular areas, such as quickness. I'm just wondering: will telling them to focus on one particular area...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to improve this attacking and possession based tactic that I have in my third season with Arsenal: Ideally, I'd like a false 9 up-front, but I have Benteke and Mitrovic, so I thought setting them as target men with the 'support' option...

Hi, Sorry to bother you all, but I can't seem to get FM 14 to install. Got it today and when I put the disk in, it doesn't pop up with the autorun install function that FM games usually come with; instead, it pops up with an 'autoplay' option, like when you plug a pen drive into the computer...

Hi, I recently spent a huge amount of money on this left-sided regen (£68million). I know I overspent, but I had a huge amount left in my budget and no other positions that really needed improving. Anyway, as you can probably see from his recent average ratings, he's been a bit underwhelming...

Hi, I posted recently complaining that my players really don't seem to be developing as well as they do when under the computer's control, and wondered whether perhaps my rotation was hindering the team. Since then, I've been trying to play my first teamers more consistently, but still, my...

Hi, I've been playing CM/FM for well over a decade now, and as I play as Arsenal, a team I aim to compete on all fronts with, I've generally favoured a policy of rotating my players to keep them fresh. Usually, if a player is below 95% condition, I take them out of the side to keep them fit...

Hi, Just got my new edition of Football Manager today, and after some annoyances whilst trying to install it, I eventually got it working and starting enjoying my new game. Having saved, quit, and come back to try and load it up again however, it doesn't seem to be working. There is no...

I keep getting this error message (Array access out of bounds) at the same point in my game, after which an error message (about 'Crash Dumps') appears. Does anyone know how to rectify this? Thanks.

Anyone know how the European Club rankings are determined? I only ask because I had my best season - winning Community Shield, World Club Championship, Super Cup, European Champions League, Premiership, FA Cup and League Cup (everything on offer) - and got 33.085 points, yet Manchester...

Having assigned all of my coaches to specialise in specific areas (i.e. a coach with defense 20 focussing solely on defensive training), I found I had 6 or 7 star coaches in all fields. However, recently, I have looked to see that all of my coaches' coaching star ratings had dropped...

Hi there. I'm considering getting a new computer, and want to know if I am able to not only install my FM09 onto the new computer, but also transfer my current save files. I know you could on the last one, but with the introduction of Steam, I don't know if it's possible. I would usually...
