>Not having fm2012 trollball boxshotsMe neither.
>tfw just turned proI'm scaredAlso, is there a deadline by which I have to turn P/T contracts into fullt-time ones?
>>21532543Have this
>>21532594i'm fairly sure there isn't, all it means is all new contracts have to be full-time basically
Got offered this guy for £1M. Any good?
>writing me off against relegation candidatesLEEEEAVE IT YEEEAAHH
>>21532594How does one turn pro exactly?And what league?
>>21532640If you were a somewhat smaller club that could benefit from a decent player or if you could use the 3~5 million profit you could make in 2 seasons i would recommend signing him, seeing as you're Valencia i would pass unless your scouts love him.
>>21532680Automatic when you get into League TwoOr you could ask the board to do that
>>21532640You'll probably make a profit off him, but he's not going to amount to much. Passing, creativity a bit low; poor dribbling/flair. All his PA deposited in those physicals, so his technicals and mentals probably won't improve all that much.He's got a good engine, but his low off the ball pretty much wastes that.
I have a problem. My team is pro, but I still can't offer full contracts to those with the team status "backup", "promising talent" and "good young players". This is a serious problem because my good talents aren't getting all the training they need and I can't offer them as much money as I want.
Look what i did guiz!

>>21532694>>21532739I'll pass then, with my huge-ass finances I don't really need to sell players for profit. What I need is HG players though... I keep getting 0.5-1.5* regens from my academy.

>>21533638Tick the target man box. Select to feet or to head depending on what suits. Get your AF to play through balls very often if his passing/creativity is up to it. Set your TM to support.Personally, I'd change the TM to a DLF and the AF to a trequarista, but that's just personal preference and I don't know your squad.Also drill crosses.
>>21533690>le 69 xD
>>21533729Thanks, i'm not sure about the trequartista though, all my strikers are fast with good heading abilities
Oh god my Leeds team can't win anything anymore. Was in first now im slowly falling only managing draws and losses and the odd win. It coincided with the loss of my striker who was here on loan who put everything in. My best winger has also been chronically injured for awhile now.Shit sucks, what do to motivate the boys?
>>21533792Oh ifyour strikers are all good in the air, float crosses instead.
>>21533793Line up? I managed to cock up my first season, but my second one, >>21533545Best bet is to call a team meating and just call on them to rally around, lay into them a bit more after a bad match.

This is my lineup. Although with everyone fit currently McCormack would be playing striker, Snodgrass RW, and White(Aidan) playing LW. When I had the striker on loan from Wolves McCormack would play LW and White went to the bench/backup.I've signed Fabio Borini but he doesn't come in till the season's over and I really some kind of production form a striker or this fucking team.

Wanna ask a question to the pro players in this thread: how's the learning curve in this game? when and after how much time did you success to bring APOEL, Anderlecht or Stella Rossa to the top of the world?Asking because i'm thinking about buying the game, an the last FM i played was 2005. Is this a lot "harder"?
>>21534675no
>>21534598>meSo guys 2 things1. how do i stop my players from getting so many yellows and reds2. any cheap cheap cheap replacement i can find for Roberto Soldado since he's injured for the next 5 months
>>21534734fine their dicks off
>>21534734unless you have a bunch of extremely dirty players, the yellows/reds thing is probably to do with your tactics. if you're playing a really open formation or a very high line your players will have to make desperate tackles to prevent breaks
So, how evil is it to use GenieScout?
>>21534785its your game, do as you wantgenie scout removes the need for scouting and gives you instant overview of possible top tier signingssomething obscured by the layers of scouting etc. in the game proper
>not signing joe mckee every single gameygsiu
>>21534785do what you like but it essentially nullifies any sort of achievement you manage so yeah
>>21534796Even if you use it you're not going to necessarily find the best regens in the world. High potential doesn't always translate to high ability. It's a nice tool, and I use it because the scouts in game are absolutely retarded.

How do I get my veteran mercenary tutors to stop demanding first team playing time? I signed all of them with the squad status "backup" with no intention of ever playing them but they get unhappy unless I play them in games about three or four times a month. Can I make them shut up?

>>21534811noit has potential ability calculatorwhile you are correct in your assumption that high pa alone is not enoughgenie scout goes beyond merely reporting the PA

>>21535601surely just out-and-out winger? his standout abilities are all core winger technicals plus stamina, and he's 17 so even if you don't focus on it (although you should) that acceleration and pace is probably going to go up by at least 4 points
>>21535617>12 crossingleli'm not big on him but those physicals are pretty spectacular so may be worth a go, wouldn't personally pay £11m though
can anyone make me a screenshot of the profile of Tony Trindade de Vilhena around 2020?
>>21535617He's actually quite good but I wouldn't pay more than £11m for him. There are likely cheaper alternatives elsewhere.
>>21535601Right winger, work on his finishing and make him cut inside, Tutored by someone with high Teamwork, flair and composure. on pace training when he has atleast 14 finishing.
>>21535663Is crossing that important for a FB? I don't play with WBs

>>21535682>>21535601there's no way I can afford to bring in a tutor with those attributes who won't fuck up his professionalism/determination, but I guess right wing will do. that's where I had planned, I've had him on quickness training for a few months, just wasn't sure
>>21535760thank you very much

>>21535901tatctics training will fix his teamwork and yes, there are a few around, but by 'afford' I meant more that my squad is already huge. I bought him mostly because I wasn't going to bother with tutoring since he had a great personality and some good mentals already.
I-it's not like we w-wanted to win or anything
>>21535947Fair enough, will undoubtedly turn out great.
Don't judge me! The season has just started and i can't be dealing with any fresh inuries. I will let Njock go though
>>21535985
What should i train this guy for?

>>21536088>dat stamina>dat wrong footednessIf I cap him, will he be more likely to get sold for a good price?
>>21536074I like the way Snrub thinks
Been offered £15m for this guy.. he's got 4 star potential, but I've phased AMC's out of my formation. I think if I let him go he'll do damage for Inter, he's pretty good. Picked him up for free a year ago and he scored 10 goals in his first season and is just outstanding in big games, scored so many big goals for me. Might as well keep him around.
>>21536128
>TFW half your team is wanted by man city, barcelona, real madrid and man uFuck off guys, I spent 4 years looking for these guys.
>>21536142Why not play him on the left wing as your playmaker then? 15 million is way to low
>>21536029>Signing non-niggersI seriously hope...etc.
>that feel when scoring twice for my country
>>21536060I'd say serious tactics/finishing training and make him an AML-inside forward cutting in. only if your tactic accommodates that though, obviously >>21535984cheers yeah, he looks pretty promising, was cheap too
>>21536125>other foot could be anything from weak to fairly strong>not just getting him to constantly cut insidelel
>>21536203I have an outstanding regen on the left too. It's right wing where there's a dearth of players for me.. the only natural AMR's I have are an aging Adam Johnson and an equally aging and pretty shit Angel Di Maria who I got for about £5m last season expecting him to join the ranks of good cheap buys I grabbed over the years. I might train him to be an AMR, he'd be great AP there, but I don't know if his left footedness affects his quality out there?
>>21536216Wait, what's this?

>>21536715wut
Just opened up 11 and my Forest file to have a look at this old GOAT. 20 seasons, and he showed no signs of letting up and retiring. Was my Giggs. Of course I'm always biased towards players from my academy.. he made his debut for me in a Champions League final against Bayern, got a 7.10 as well. Had never even played a game but my first choice got injured and my second choice was being shit so I threw him straight in as a starter for 120 mins and he was good.Anyone else have any 20 season players?>mfw I had to put it on full res to get Taylor's full career history into one picture.

I know what y'all say about GK's and it being easy to find a replacement but this guy has been Ligue 1 GK of the season every year since he joined me on a free from Chelski. The money seems too good to turn down, the matter is finding a good replacement though.

>>21537586I got him for 4m from Chelsea, never been anything more than a backup for >De Gay, fuck the money though loyalty above all.
>>21537684He's been brilliant for me though, plus there doesn't seem to be much in the way of replacements near his quality about. I think I'll hang onto him.. even though Barca just upped their offer to £22m.

I wonder how long I can keep this going. The match before the first 2-0 ended 3-1, so still a two goal differential.

>>21538498>holyshit
>>21538868well it means that the player has between 5 and 14 professionalism, so it's not necessarily 'poor,' just not great
>>21538894
>>21538732Lol. Sadly I'm attending GOAT University, so a single 3,000 word essay is an easy week. This week is great too because we're just doing Shakespeare's long poems, which is much nicer than doing three long plays and reading four or five secondary texts too.

Still playing as Leeds and I can't stop this run of bad form. I did a team meeting trying to encourage them but I only got 5 players motivated 2 reacted negatively and I still lost my next game 2-0 against Sunderland.This fucking sucks.
>>21539293Howmuch did you tip?
>>21539305Maybe this is just me, but I find as the season goes on, I complicate things, make little changes here and there, adding layers to it. When I have a bad run of form, I make it simple again, go back to a very simplistic formation, simplistic set up, and that normally jolts us out of a bad run of games.
>Check Liberia U20s every year for my own Sam Dee Roberts every year>Squad always emptyTell me your secrets Mr Truro man!

>>21539350I started the save with a 4-3-3 and I haven't changed it at all. The drop in form coincided with me losing my on loan striker from Wolves(forget his name) and key players getting injured(Snodgrass) and I haven't been able to get a single striker even one I brought in on loan to score and Snodgrass re-injured himself his first game back from the initial injury.I bought Fabio Borini but he isn't joining the team until the end of the season.Shit sucks man.

>assman suggesting an 18 year-old for vice-captainWas I right to choose otherwise?
>>21542756>vice-captainI'm sure that would be fine as long as he has high influence. I've had 18-year-old VCs before and never had trouble with it.it's only when you start appointing teenage captains that you get trouble, I find
>>21542850Yeah, but the captain's not all that decent with stamina (even for a centre-back), and I might have to bench him at times to make the HG quotas
Never in doubt!>>21542399I still haven't found that African GK i desperately need
>>21542957then you probably did the right thing, yeah
>>21543042Woah. Gentlemen, we have a potential GOAT Target Man.
>>21543316>>21543042he's no 14-year-old belarusian
>>21543381That's true.. I seriously need to get a screenshot of this kid when I put him on the wing late in games, I actually lel'd when I first saw it. It's like when you see Peter Crouch on TV.
How could this guy possibly be a club legend?
