There isn't really any real bias in football manager. Injuries can be 90% managed on your own. Watch the minutes you give players with high injury risks and make sure you have depth. Good youth team members, even if they're garbage, are worth putting in teams when star players are injured especially if you're a top half team. Transfer values are based on a mixture of a team's financial status and the actual valuation of the player. Clubs like RB Leipzig will always have a full purse and won't need to sell their players at all, so they'll put their price as high as they can. Try and look for players with smaller reputations at poorer/struggling clubs. Also, the price the ai first gives you is usually 2x higher than the actual valuation they'll sell for. If your initial offer is a lowball, teams will take offense at that and give you a higher price. You need to give a mid range offer, but you can cheese it by adding random clauses to bump the total value up. Especially installations and competition win clauses.
'We should add shoot on sight' Thanks but no! Don't know if that works, not going to try. lol. Don't feel like that's going to fix not scoring from inside the box.
I stopped playing Football Manager when the AI would switch over to 4-2-4 and the moment you adjust your tactics to counter it, it switches it back and then you can't make a change until the ball's dead…which was usually after they score.
The monotone delivery, well edited & overall great content 😂
Keep it up!
Tip to avoid fixture congestion – you can set it so games only happen on 2 days in the week. I have it set to Wednesday and Saturday. Really helps manage your squad
I agree with all of them, more so on the idiot staffs, it doesn't matter how high their attributes, their advices are stinks!
