** This is only my second attempt at a FM15 save, I'm still getting use to the game, but thought i would write down my progress for people to read. This is so much a story, but just my save progress noted down, i still hope you can get some enjoyment from reading what happens though...
So I have taken over at Manchester United replacing Louis Van Gaal as the man to take Manchester United back to the mountain top of English & European football.
I have selected just the English leagues to play within, as the sole purpose of this saved game is to manage just Manchester United, so I decided to just select a large database with 17,000 Player Count and all 6 leagues to play in. You never know what gems may come from the lower tiers of English football. I haven’t selected any of the Advance Options, although I was tempted to disable the first transfer window, making me have to work with the team that’s there already. But as I just intend to manage Man Utd, I think its best if I can add my own players as early as possibly making, if any, errors with the team, my fault.
When deciding on my managerial style, I decided that I would use what is suggested for being the manager of Man Utd. I also used my first save attempt to help decide what attributes have what rating. So to start...
The reasoning I've gone this way with my coaching stats is purely down to my first save, i found quality coaches for all categories other than Attacking, i could find that 4.5*/5* coach needed for the attacking category, as i know i can fill the other categories with high quality coaches, I've gone with stats that will hopefully set me up to be a excellent attacking coach.
So as this will be my first post as I’ve set up the game, I would like to ask, once I got the beginning started, like team setup, tactics, coaches, and all that stuff up, would you prefer to see… monthly or weekly reports/updates ?
