I always think the german league is very competitive and Bayern could be good for you. Obviously, you have a strong squad, but its not the deepest and youll have to manage it through SIX competitions in a condensed season. It wont be as easy as perhaps it looks on paper to win everything. Another good one for you if you want to win straight away yet still have to scout thoroughly and rebuild the squad might be Benfica/Porto. In terms of a club that needs to be built back to its former reputation, Panathinaikos is one that always stands out for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creppin Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Hi all. I'm someone who normally lurks in the lower reaches of the football league or non league pyramid. I'm wanting to start a long term save, possibly even to last me the next 6/7 months and want a top tier team, somewhere other than England. I'm reading Calcio at the moment and feel Torino could be an interesting save, but Belotti only has 2 years on a contract and I'd worry I couldnt get him to resign. I'd love a save with that type of team and a player who I can build the club around. Any suggestions similar to Torino would be appreciated. Thanks!

goonergez Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Deportivo in Spain. You have Diego Rolan who is a cut above and you start in the third tier.

With Altinordu you can only sign Turkish players, wich makes it virtually impossible to win the league. Bursaspor has great facilities for youth and no restrictions. In Spain you could go for Deportivo la Coruna in the third tier. If thats to mainstream for you as a lot of people do it you also have good facilities in Racing Santander. Alternatively in the Segunda you have Gijon with great facilities. My suggestion is go to the France National and go with Bastia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJ403 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Looking for a save that can tide me over until FM22, hopefully ending in glory before then. Ideally I'd like a side in one of the big leagues (England, Germany, Spain, France, Italy). I've already managed Stuttgart in the Bundesliga this year so the other four are preferable but not by much. At the rate I play I've probably got time for 6-7 or so more seasons in me. I'd like to be able to be competitive in the Champions League by the end of the save (think Atletico Madrid level sides who could win if things go their way but are by no means any form of favourite). Similarly I'd like to be a serious challenger for league titles by then. As a result Im thinking a mid-table to upper mid-table level side. Steady finances and a few decent prospects to carry through the journey are also desirable. I've also got an identity I'd like to develop by then too, ideally playing from the start, details can be found here. In FM terms I picture this like so:The roles listed aren't overly relevant its more the movements. Obviously the system can be mirrored if necessary.

Tom24 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Hi everyone, I'm just getting back into FM after only playing FM19 over the past few years. I'm looking for a team that I can manage for a few years whilst I get my head around the new features and try and develop my tactical knowledge. Ideally then, this would be a team where the board expectations are not to challenge for the title immediately, yet a club that is sound financially with a decent enough squad that won't be at the bottom of their league. I want to avoid England for the time being, and preferably the main 5 countries however this wouldn't be a deal breaker. Something along the lines of AZ Alkmaar who I'm considering. Open to Scandinavian teams, Portugal, Scotland, Belgium etc. All suggestions appreciated! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hughes Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 FC Nordsjaelland - Pretty much perfect for youth development. The Danish league is very competitive and you also get an added bonus of getting prize money every 11 games (twice during regular season and again at the end of championship group). FK Bodo/Glimt - Surprised everyone by winning the 2020 Norwegian league and have a great squad by their standards.

Looking for a team that isn't title-winning quality, has some quality but does need a bit of a rebuild. Any suggestions are welcome!

Used to enjoy Crewe but not sure they're so great these days. Need some ideas Tranmere and Colchester aren't bad for lower league teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
