@JakeSummersFM Would like much better AI management both for DOF challenges and overall team selection & tactics. Many of the in game decisions are poor
@nocontextfm1 I’m doing a UK journeyman with the aim of winning the premier leagues in all the home nations and the ROI. I am currently managing in the JD Cymru North. I feel the lower leagues are an easier way to learn the game as I think you have an advantage over the AI in team building.
@nocontextfm1 Take Clyde from Scottish L2 to Premiership Champions as a youth only save (they share Hamilton’s facilities) or a Scandinavian crown - win the top division in Denmark, Finland, Norway & Sweden
🚨 GIVE ME AN FM26 SAVE IDEA 🚨
I want saves that will get people excited to play FM26 again. Comment the best saves and I'll choose one of the most liked ones.

@fmplaymakerofcl I use the vertical setting and switch around each half so that the camera is behind my team. I got the idea from one of the creators- it might have been Omega Luke - and it gives me what I want
Used to play almost exclusively on 2D in previous FM series.
But in FM26, 2D just doesn’t look good anymore 🤔
Tried Tactical camera with different height/zoom settings...
And I think Aerial might actually be the best for me this year.
What camera do you use in FM26? 👀

@RegenHunters It took time to find my way around the new game but I have got my key screens bookmarked and I have learned the rest. I am doing lower leagues at the moment but really enjoying my save and not feeling a lack of immersion.
Alright, I've completed another season in #FM26 - Confirmation, the game just doesn't give you that feeling you're managing a football club like previous FM games, there is no immersion to the game or the club you're managing. You really do just feel like you're clicking around and just waiting to see what score your games are.
Near enough every save I did on FM24, felt like a story, I wanted to jump back on and play it when I wasn't at home, I wanted to see what would happen in other leagues and see how Youth Intake players progressed.
Absolutely none of that in FM26, I REALLY, REALLY hope that with FM27, they get it right, make it better, otherwise I fear in a few years people will give up and it will be dead.
@secondtierpod He did a good job of getting the club out of League 1. But then it felt like the team entered a cul de sac tactically and the club’s recruitment was mixed to say the least.
@DrHelenFry My great uncle, William Blood joined the airborne forces early in the war. He was killed during the fighting in Tunisia in March 1943. The paras took heavy casualties and unfortunately he was one of them. I would love to find out more about his story and visit his grave.
🗣️ Statement from Shakhtar CEO Serhii Palkin on the potential return of Russia to international FIFA tournaments.
"The position from FIFA President Gianni Infantino regarding the possible return of Russian teams to international competitions represents a complete detachment from reality and I am profoundly disappointed by it.
"The reality is this: we have been surviving a full scale war for four years. Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed. Cities have been destroyed. Civilian, sporting, energy and heating infrastructure has been devastated. The lives of millions of people has been shattered.
"I want to publicly ask Mr Infantino: What led him to make such a statement at this moment? And why, after four years of war, has he not once come to Ukraine to see with his own eyes what is happening here?
"Let him come and see how people live. How children play football in Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Dnipro, Kyiv and Lviv - under air-raid sirens, next to bomb shelters, under the constant threat of missiles and drones.
"I invite Mr Infantino to attend our first match in February. Let him speak with our players - with Dmytro Riznyk, who lost his brother in the war, and with Denys Tvardovskyi, whose father was also killed defending Ukraine.
"Just yesterday, 16 Ukrainian miners were killed when a Russian drone hit the bus they were travelling in. Many of them were supporters of FC Shakhtar. This horror does not stop.
"And a statement about the return of Russian football is not a 'step towards peace'. It is a continuation of this horror. It is an attempt to pretend that war and aggression do not exist.
"Football cannot exist outside reality. And it has no right to turn a blind eye to evil.
"Mr Infantino should also reflect on this: by supporting the return of Russia to international competitions, he would be making not only a sporting decision, but a political and moral one.
"And such a decision carries responsibility - including responsibility for complicity in the silencing of war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Russia against Ukraine."

I was 12. My best friend fell onto the tube tracks on the way home from school. She got back on the platform unhurt. Her fall traumatised me more than her. The next day I took the bus home and I have only taken the tube 3 times in the last 38 years. It still horrifies me.
