Yeah. Seems no matter what you do you can't beat your League stature.
Yes and no. I've modified only a few. The ones above. And for some of them not even something serious. Except Popa and Lato who were hugely under-rated. Popa doesn't even want to leave.
They're much better than in the standard game.. Bringing replacements of equal qual it's impossible.
I started with an edited database with each player reflecting it's real life actual quality and potential. They're much better than in the standard FM game. Esp Bourceanu, Pintilii, Latovlevici...
Finally got a cold water shower from Real. Got beat 3-2 away. The entire game I was drooling at the opposing team playstyle and passing. So much for Steaua fan :D. Still we did a good impression. And Ronaldo whining as always :D
I'm playing with Steaua in 2nd season with 3/4 of the team unhappy, requesting to be put on transfer list. They've been bugging me for over 1 year to move to bigger clubs. I've promised them to give them the chance to test their skills in uefa CL. Now I'm 1st in a group with RM, OL and Porto...
