    Player movement from Bundesliga reserve team to first team?

    Meaning to try the Bundesliga for the first time, but I can't wrap my head entirely around the B team system. The specific team in question is Stuttgart btw. They have a B team which plays a few tiers below the first team. The issue is that moving players from the B team to the main team...

    How much older does a tutor have to be?

    I know a tutor needs to be at least a little older than the tutee. Simply being 24+ against the tutee's 23- is not enough. I learned this first-hand when I tried to tutor a 23-yr old player with a 25-yr old player and was denied. However, the site where I confirmed this didn't say how big the...

    Formation familiarity is the biggest farce.

    I had my main formation familiarity at fluid, then played one FA cup game bringing in a total of 4 U21 players and changing the formation to another more suited for that game (one which I was also fluid at). Lo and behold, after the game when I switch back to my main formation, its knowledge...

    Drunk FM... never again.

    The next day you remember two 0:0's in a row against bottom-half teams and you're like gdi that is a pretty big downturn in form for a team currently claiming top spot in the league. But at least I remember still being 2 points ahead of second place, so I'm solid. Just need to recapture my form...

    Training facilities or youth facilities?

    Which one of these affects an 18-yr old player who plays in the main squad, not the u21s? Asking to determine where to loan out a player.

    did SI limit the options for u21/u18 squad availability for FM16 or is my game bugged

    recalling from loan

    What's the deal with this? Where's the button for this or what's up? I've got a bunch of those 1-3-month loanees out to League clubs, many of them with recall clauses, but I can't recall any of them. The free loan window is also definitely still active. I've attached an illustrative image.

    players moved to senior squad bug

    Sometimes when I advance time (by just pressing 'continue') I'll come back and find all my youth players have been moved to the senior squad. It used to be just an annoyance because I had to rethink who was in U21 and who U18, but now it's doing it right before an U18 match so I'll set my dudes...

    Somebody is giving my bad youths pro contracts

    The player is bad. His squad status is 'not needed'. Every contract-related responsibility lies solely on me, the manager. No one is allowed to modify anyone's contract but me. Yet when this dude turns 17, for some inexplicable reason someone keeps offering him a pro contract. I used to get an...

    Another star rating question (positional abilities related)

    So I've noticed that when I click on the 'positional abilities' screen it shows a star rating wildly different from the ones given by my assistant manager/scout. What gives? I get that the star rating is given in relation to your team's ability, but why are these two ratings so hugely...
