Got the touch version of FM 24 for the Mac. First season with Liverpool. Only signed Tchouameni. Beat City 5-1 to go two points clear at the top with 2 games to go. Next game, same team, full vitality and moral lost 2-1 to Sheffield Utd and so came 2nd. Forgot how frustrating these FM games are.

Not played it since the champ manager 2 days. Quite a bits changed for example your assistant makes loads of recommendations from formation to team talks, heard you have to follow the assistants advice otherwise it won’t work. They want 4-3-3 gegenpress. If I decide to change formation and tactics is it less likely to work as you are going against the advice?. Seems the game does a lot of the thinking for you.

You don't have to listen to the assistant at all. Do as you please.

Ok, nice. Thanks.

Anyone else have an issue with Nunez and offsides? I know he gets caught a fair amount in real life, but he's been caught offside 33 times in my first 11 league matches, including 6 times in 1 match. Scores shitloads of offside goals too which is infuriating.

Sounds realistic to me

Started a new save with Liverpool after the update, made a formation close to real life with trent inverting etc. It seems to have just, worked?

22 games in and I've won 18, drawn 4, scoring 43 and only conceding 6.

I tried to do something similar when the game first released and I had to give it up as a bad job because I was getting battered

Premier League license should be cool, will eliminate the need for logo packs and all that

Among Europe’s top domestic sports leagues, England joins France’s Ligue 1, Germany’s Bundesliga, the Dutch Eredivisie, Scotland’s Premiership, and Belgium’s Pro League as in-game licensed competitions.

Does anyone use anything different from the non default skin?

Trying to find something different from the normal look - but haven't seen anything that piques the interest yet.

25 has been delayed until March. Sounds like this new era leap has been a massive struggle for them.

Seem to recall CM4 being a similar mess way back when.

It looks terrible, it's been dumbed down so much it's nothing like the original PC game which was amazing.

Yikes...
I didn't know they were going to Unity until I heard about it a few weeks ago, but they should have used that to take a break for a year and completely revamp the game, because over the years it has just become a huge mess...
