I read only a few days ago about a YouTuber who created the World Cup and played it X amount of times, invited X amount of others to do the same and made some money on it. I believe France won, England finished 4th and Kane was top goalscorer.
I don't see what you would be able to do using past databases though nor would Si allow it given they rent the database out anyway, right?
I wish I could do that, even if no money was to be made.Originally Posted by SincereTheRebel

Easy one to start with.
Big 5 leagues, Poland and Cyprus all with the lowest league possible thanks to Classen.
Just got rejected by Stowmarket Town
That was my chance to manage the GREAT Titus Bramble.
I got loads of messages that I was the favourite too and I had the fan support.
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
I wanted to win every game in the league.
That defense though....
That one bastard slip up
I didn't know this was a thing.
Why is it a thing? What's the point?
Does the game give you an option to praise him or comment on it in a press conference?
A local supporters group demanded that I terminate his contract.
Hold firm. Being sacked for the outrage would be a great way to go out.
I'd rather they include stuff like that as opposed to when Harchester made an appearance.
Realism.

The fuck? In the first half it felt like every time we had the ball we were going to score.
They had only conceded 27 in their previous 33 games.
Think I'm going to stay on and have a crack at the Ekstraklasa but we're losing our top goalscorer (he was on loan from Lyon and I didn't realise his contract was expiring until he signed for someone in the top league
What tactic you using?

Second
I've been tempted to do one of those smaller country saves trying to win the Champions League.
However I don't know how I'd cope when it got to the point of the league being won without question but still only scraping out of group stages or barely into the quarter finals. I reckon that could be a good 4-5 seasons worth right there.
It's a pain in the arse, or at least it used to be, as your entire first 11 constantly wants to leave.
I imagine if you'd have to get a league where you'd have a proper rival or two. Portugal whilst not being one of the big 3 seems like a good bet, but it's not exactly a smaller country.
I did it with Anorthorsis Famagusta.
The Cypriot league was piss easy within 2/3 seasons but it took a good 8 seasons I think to win the Champions League.
I was winning every match easily even with youth prospects.
Thought we were going to fuck them again when the 4th went in.
Was away though tbf.
I did it with Steaua recreating '86. Was a massive slog but I got there in the end.
From champions to, potentially, relegation.
@Sir Andy MahowryWhat tactic you using?

Oh, I just downloaded the 4-3-3 Goalmachine on Steam.
Fun times.
Europa League confirmed then.
Not if the Character One is still at Celtic. It'll be death by football.
Two games in and the group is lol.
I lost 3-2 in Scotland but nudged past Madrid in Poland 2-1.
We're top of the group as Madrid beat Juventus in the first game and they beat Celtic in their second game.
Fuck you pay me.
We almost didn't even make it to the group stage because we almost fucked up to AEK in the second round of qualification. They scored an early goal in the first leg and we had a CB sent off after 10 minutes (they didn't check VAR and his suspension was overturned so fuck the ref). Youngster sent a penalty massively wide in the 70th minute but we got a goal back not long after. They then got a penalty which 35 year old Jamie Vardy put away who grabbed another in the 94th minute. Thankfully we humped them 5-1 in the second leg.
Doing the double over Juve?
Jesus
Ugly.
Edit: We've had Takeover is on/Takeover is done messages for 5 fucking months and we're now days away from the pissing transfer window.

Annoyingly Napoli's first goal (second leg) saw my goalkeeper dropkick the ball right into an attacker's chest which bounced right into the net.
Close competition.
Accepted some bids for a Niclas Fullkrug (I'm now Hannover manager) and he rejected them all and now the squad have taken me to a meeting telling me I need to let him go...
I took over at Chelsea after 1 season (so now) and decided to get rid of all the absolute dross hanging around... recouped 315m.....
Allegri was instantly sacked.
Also, that Demir is their player who I took on loan this year which is fun.
SUPER FINAL TITLE CHALLENGE MEGATHON SATURDAY is going to be huge.
Gladbach have 11th placed RB Leipzig at home, Schalke have 9th placed Wolfsburg away and we have Bayern away which should be fun.
Donned by BayernAlthough the Munchers won so wouldn't have made any difference.
Did like finishing above Bayer Leverkusen though. They rejected me, were predicted to finish third compared to us at ninth so me > them.
How many saves do you have on the go?
Looking to start my European journey with a smaller country as FIFA dies off. Though I'll be doing it on FM16 as I'm a cheap bastard.
I'll be looking for a league that isn't a full on slog, so not too long a league season and preferably not 2/3 domestic cups either. A league low down in the coefficient rankings is ideal too. I was looking at the Scandinavian countries but their league season seems to run at an off time to the European competition. For example Norways starts in April and ends in November. This essentially means your R16 Champions League fixture would be right in the middle of their off-season.
There'd be a few aims in the save.
1. Dominate domestically - Aiming inside 2-3 years to get the point of doing so. Upgrading facilities should be a key point to get done ASAP.
2. Improve the League coefficient. This is probably the hardest part of the save as this is reliant on other clubs in the league playing ball too. There's a few key milestones which should help the league towards improvement. 15th improves the rounds at which you enter qualifying across the league. 12th place guarantees a team in the CL and UL group stages. 6th adds an extra CL group stage spot and anything 3rd or better is the promised land.
This one is a tough one to put a time on. It'll be at least 6 seasons due to the rolling coefficient number. However I may never get into a CL group stage which would slow the progress down. Or the rest of the league could end up useless and make it impossible to go beyond a certain point
3. Win a European competition. 1 + 2 should equal 3. Time taken depends entirely on point 2. It's probably going to take a good 10 years to get to the point of mixing it up in the knockouts of the CL at least. However the Europa could prove a little easier.
Just the one.
Here is my history:
Greece?Olympiakos is your best bet but you can always try to bring Panathinaikos back to their glory days of title wins and decent European placements.PAOK or AEK don't have the roster quality like their 2019 equivalents so these 2 are another worthy mentions.
I like the look of AEK if I were to go Greek. Although they are due to move into a 32k seater stadium about 3 years into the save. Downsizing from a 70k stadium seems a bit of a bummer. What's happened there?
Not being able to register u17s (pre January 1st of the coming year) or loan out anyone under 18 is really fucking annoying in Germany.
Can't wait until he starts moaning after signing him as a Key Player from Real Madrid for £20m.
Also have a few 17 year olds in the squad that I bought last year who can now be registered for me but can't be loaned out.
Looking through at the structure of some leagues and came across this gem for Finland:

Wouldn't it have just been easier to list which nations aren't treated as EU?
At that point in time,they have their home matches in OAKA(National Football stadium) via lease so that's why.In 2019 in real life,this stadium is being built as we speak. And they won the championship 2 years ago.So there,bit of a history lesson.
