Here are some suggestions ive been using and love. 1 Never use "Put on transfer list" or "Put on loan list". When you take over a club, most of the times they have a lot of deadwood. The first thing you do in a new save is sell 2/3 of the players, which is not realistic at all. By not forcing transfer and loan offers, you really have to rotate your squad and use players you would never use. And the most important part is, when you get an offer for one of your MVP's you'll really have to contemplate keeping or selling them. Another offer might not come anytime soon! 2 Try to only buy/loan players your scouts come up with. Don't use any website to know all the high potential youngsters. Your scouts should realisticly be the only source of information outside of your league. 3 Coming back to point 1, some players might not get any offers. If you dont want to keep them you'll have to wait for the contract to run out, which is going to hurt your manager rating. Frustrating I know, but realistic and challanging. 4 Do some research of recent transfers of the club your managing. For example, Barcelona has bought so many Ajax players. So if you're playing as Barca, buy Ajax players! 5 Change your AI sliders! Gameplay is always wack against the best AI's. Changing the sliders to have them make more passing mistakes will certainly make playing the matches yourself way more fun.
One of the best comments so far if not the best. I don't have the game yet because my PC is too weak but ill save your comment in case ill buy the game. Thank you so much
i've started career mode with Shakthar Donetsk this season, I put them in the Polish league with Dynamo Kiev. I am only signing and scouting players from former Soviet countries (except Russia) and youth players as well.
Retiring as a player then going into manager career mode doesn't give you the start options like regular career mode, you're forced to have default settings to the game/transfers/board expectations/etc. Really really annoying.
Doing a Bromley save with my favorite midfielder Aaron Ramsey as manager, youth focused scouting from Wales and England eventually Italy and France aswell (where he played) Signing talents/released players from clubs he played for and former teammates of his.
i am playing my manager career mode in FC25 with icons squad file, downloaded it from nexus mod. It is always a dream to play a career mode with past and current players and trust me it is so much fun
I started a career as Dirk kuyt in the belgian league and put out some restrictions - every match starting XI must consist of three acqdemy players - every matchday squad has to have to atleast six belgians - only the away matches and neutral venue matches are played and the home ones are simulated - using the money ball technique for signings and no player over the rating of eighty I am currently now in 3rd season and placed 2nd in the league
This year I’m doing a youth academy only save with FC Hansa Rostock since they’ve been relegated to 3.Liga while their rivals St. Pauli were promoted to the Bundesliga. I fell for Hansa Rostock because it’s my German brother-in-law’s club. When I was in Germany he took me to the derby in Rostock when they were both in the 2.Bundesliga (2 seasons ago) and Hansa won 2-0 with Varook scoring an incredible, once in a lifetime bicycle kick… IT WAS INSANE! As a football obsessed American I’ve never experienced something like that before and I might not ever again. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t rooting against St. Pauli this season 😅🤣☠️💙❤️🤍
@@RikRikson I’ve watched, followed and played football (physically/electronically) ever since FIFA 05 but as an American it’s so hard to connect with a proper club especially since the closest fully pro club one to me is Columbus Crew in MLS which is like 2.5 hours away from where I live. There’s just something magically organic about clubs and their supporters in proper footballing countries.
@@mynamesak I was extremely lucky with the timing tbh. I was expecting to go to a Hertha Berlin match since my brother-in-law actually lives in Berlin and not up north in Rostock lol
One of my favourite things to do is start a save with only 32+ year old players, than gradually meet certain objectives to be able to slowly upgrade the team. By season 5, with everything pretty much going perfectly, you be getting to the youngsters and high potentials. It forces you to use players you'd never think about, and it's a challenge making sure you pick a team that this makes sense for. A complete rebuild, starting with some of most legendary players, and ending with the most promising, and having some players somewhere in between in the middle.
Just to add-on, a bit of a cop out if you Ask me, but this works well with the Saudi league teams. Just transfer the team over to your preferred league if you want, I don't feel like the stakes are high enough in the base league.
Red card = 3 game ban if u go deep in all comps increase Injury sliders (more game u play the more injuries u pick up) New contract = can't sell for 2 seasons or sell for a reduced price if u reject a Bid for ur player = give them new contract Free contract signing = signing fee is 100% of players value Unhappy player at the end of the season = sell If you Sign a player within the last 3 weeks of the transfer window or sign a player not 100% scouted you must pay the enquired fee(pay extra) only sign Youth players with the highest current overall (ignore their potential) Ignore potential - Sign players with best overall for their age Sign relegated players too good for their clubs at a reduced price Hard rules (£0 budget/wage budget) You can only spend on new transfer fees and wages based on the profit obtained from your transfers/wages. If your player is sold to a new team the leftover wages from the cancelled contract is added to profit/ur transfer budget. Extra wages from new contracts must be paid by profit budget. (The TOTAL value of the contract must be paid upfront.) Scouts, youth scouts and youth players wages must be funded by the profit budget.
2 ideas I’m going to be doing is reviving Jose Mourinho managerial career using his old tactics, and then the next one is to make Wales a Euros/World Cup regulars, then get then to round of 16 consistently and try to get to 1 final or semi final (like there Euros run back in 2016)
I started a Allrounder Career Mod, my first station is Rosenborg BK and after 2 Seasons I change the League. Then maybe i go to Netherland or Denmark and win titles.
No mention of manually positioning players in team management again. Literally the best way to be a manager...... Honestly if I could play last year's game with the new transfers I would.
I’m playing a career mode as Rio Ave in Portugal and rebuilding through the youth academy by scouting only Portuguese’s speaking nations. It limits me to seven options with the obvious of Brazilian and Portugal, but I’ve also scouted in places like Mozambique, Angola, São Tomé, and Guinea-Bissau in Africa and East Timor in Asia.
I'm currently playing a RC Deportivo career mode with Jobe Bellingham and Ethan Mbappe in midfield under the tutelage of Jose Mourinho. It's a sibling rivalry save to go and challenge their brothers but for realism I've sprinkled Spanish players around like Gabri Veiga and Stefan Bajčetić who both have Galician roots. I manually create my roster prior to each save. I've always done it this way in club transfers.
@@FSHB I wholesale swap Madrid's and Barça's rosters occasionally too. If I don't like a player or get tired of playing vs the same veterans, I banish them to wherever I feel like. I'm a Celta supporter and play to have fun. Moving around players and doing anything that strikes my mood keeps the game interesting. But every camel league player has his price: Gabri's enjoying a fat salary closer to Porriño!
International is horrible lately anyways. What they really should do to improve is have everything(or at least most) unlicensed meaning youll have generic national teams with CM real, game-generated and Youth players and generic tournaments in the style and format of the real ones.
I’m doing a Newcastle save but it’s local players only. I needed to use the FM editor to find players from Newcastle only so the team starts out at 3.5 stars. From there, I am only using youth academy players from England.
You could take out the best players out of a team, let's say you take man city as a example and just transfer all the best players to a random club doesn't matter and only play with the worst players of the team. You could even add a storyline a reason to why all the best ones left, maybe your club got in trouble or smth.
I’ve started a career mode with Man City with the storyline of KDB last year and how can city coup without him. Side quests are to lower the average age of the squad since most players are in there 30
I can’t wait this weekend for when I buy fc25 so I can do a career mode with derby county my team causer we recently got promoted and made great signings
I'm doing a create a club save (Wakanda FC) where I'm only allowed to sign African players. I placed them in the French second division and I am also managing the Gabon national team. I am doing this in Football Manager Mobile.
What's the site you referenced before, that is like an enciclopidea for football clubs to help make my save more realistic with scouting and transfers. It had a comment section
I think a solution would be to allow players to use multiple teams/clubs in one save kinda like how nba 2k works so like maybe you can have one team from each of the top leagues in the same season i think that would fix the problem of career mode being boring due to having the same squad for the majoritt of the time
I like to make a club of my local area. I then only sign youth players and regens based on the common natonalities living in the area. So for exmaple where i live in london, in addition to English, Welsh ans Irish there are a lot of Japanese, Lebannese, Iranians, indians and Polish.
Use manual controls. Once you do it, you never go back. The difference in satisfaction when scoring a long shot with manual compared to assisted is unbelievable
Is anyone else finding it to easy to score and concede? Even with sliders my score are like 5-1 or 5-4. Just want to find a way to make the gameplay more realistic
I like to link my 'my players' with my manager careers E.G. I had a player which was from Somalia but represented Egypt(It was modded but somalian kits were glitched) In FC 25 ive had him sent scouts to Sonalia and Edgyt. I also had him play more of an attacking football style as he was very aggressive and selfish aleaysplaying as if he carries the team on his back.
i love manager career mode the only thing thats bothering me is that i just cant seem to find the right balance between tactics and formation anyone tips?
I came up with a story for fc25 where USA was actually a breeding ground for elite players. And in the main menu settings I edit the players, about 33 or so players, edit their stats to make USA a 5 star team. And help them win their first World Cup and using some of the new elite usa players in whatever clubs I’m with. Im known for bringing American players to the clubs I go.
That blue-haired dude looks like a freak of nature. I tried the new women's career mode, and practically all the academy players look terrible. This keeps me from starting a long-term career mode.
AI on lower levels is fucked. I started on legendary with simulation sliders w Chesterfield in League 2. My opponents are terrible, they cant attack, they dont even try it. Even when theyre down 1-0 at the 80th minute they will pass it around the back. How to fix this?
What really ruins career mode for me is how restrictive tactical presets are with the whole new player roles feature. Can’t really be fully expressive with tactics if they’re so limiting… why can I only have a false 9 striker playing tika Taka? Why do I need a false back? For park the bus why must I play short pass and not counter attack? For gegenpress why can I only have a poacher? All these things are so annoying and make it hard to replicate realistic tactics
This year they have ruined the youth academy players. Why are some as young as 13-14. It was fine before why change it? Not just that they’ve not really changed the rest of it too much and it’s just the same old crap. EA once again not listening to their users.

the pass error slider hasnt seemed to change much for me, at least against PL opposition
Wow thx I have been playing career mode for a long time and never have I thought about this big up for your creativity
Barcelona hasn't bought 'so many' Ajax players recently. I know it's just an example, but it's a wrong one.
@@angelmihaylov6888 no but if you look from history. Frenkie de Jong, Cruyff, Neeskens, Kluivert, Overmars and many more so he is telling the truth

Great idea tbh
The except russia Part is funny 😂
Cant scout iqn russia😂😂😂😂😂 youre scout will get shot
It's spelled Kyiv but Donetsk is a great Club and I do save with them every year
@@paulmarquardt4021its spelled either way
I just did a Blackburn Rovers career mode and it was so much fun, just simulating and not worrying about getting sacked.
Retiring as a player then going into manager career mode doesn't give you the start options like regular career mode, you're forced to have default settings to the game/transfers/board expectations/etc. Really really annoying.
This is easily the biggest oversight in the game for me

only sign Youth players with the highest current overall (ignore their potential)
Ignore potential - Sign players with best overall for their age
Sign relegated players too good for their clubs at a reduced price
