Maybe only buy French or as you said French speaking players. Just try make it fun and challenging. I personally would do it as a Youth Only but I could sign former PSG youth academy products.

dothestrand Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 PSG have lost a number of youth academy players in recent years such as Nkunku, Ikone, Diaby, Weah, N'soki, Adli, Nianzou, and Aouchiche to other clubs in France and beyond. Resigning those guys would be a place to start. Coman, Rabiot and Areola coming back may offer immediate strength. Use your academy or sign young French players to build a completely new squad.

nico_france Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 (edited) Lots of nice saves here ! So after a succesful save with my beloved Marseille team, i decided to start fresh and took over a difficult team to manage: Bordeaux So basically, the team has really few quality in the first team, you have huges mortgage running in bank, and obviously no money to spend Some ageing players on big wages as well You can't loan anybody else as your slots are already full Your attendance in the stadium is awful You have a lot of players loaned, some of them have automatic buyout clause when you stay in Ligue 1, and they are not world beaters at all, the only really interesting one is Pembele, loaned by PSG but you can't afford his 14M€ buyout clause unfortunately So as i result, i started with a with a 4-2-3-1 Adli, which is loaned by Milan is shining as my number 10, but no buyout clause here as well sadly The quality upfont is tight, as i have to play Niang upfront The good suprise comes from the academy, Sekou Mara, that i promoted in my first team and retrained as an IF on my left wing, really promising and starter all season long The other good, and well known player, is the loan of the bosnian defender Anel Ahmedhodzic, who is your best defender in the team with an affordable 5M€ buyout clause, a must keep As a result, we suprisngly ended up finishing 2nd behind PSG, selling Niang during the winter window for 20M€ to a russian team (But is previous club Rennes has a big % in the resale), allowed me to secure my bosnian defender and to bring in Umar Sadiq upfront for more or less 5M€, which was an incredible scoring machine Also got rid of some overpaid ageing deadwood and brought in Diaz, an argentinian left back, very talented The bad suprise was that even with Champions League football money, i was given 0€ to spend and still no money to spend on wages as well... Hopefully i was able to get some decent loanies the next season, and was given, at least money to spend (12M€) for the winter window Currently in April in my second season, just been knocked out by Chelsea on penalties in quarter final of Champions League and currently sitting 3rd behind PSG and Monaco, but the margins are tight In any case, i would recommend giving a try with this team, as it's a bit more challenging than other saves so far Funny fact, during the first season, beated Marseille away, and Sampaoli had been sacked Edited April 16, 2022 by nico_france 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilsonJuve Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I have played the game since the very early CM days but haven’t managed in France since Lyon were the force to be reckoned with. After much deliberation I have decided to manage Rennes for the soul reason they have a decent youth setup but more importantly haven’t won a league title. Early issue is the squad is very small so I will need to use the £12.5m budget to bring some good starter/cover players in. Will update you all before the first game of the season. I’m also excited about the long battle to replace PSG at the top of the league. I want my transfer dealings to be realistic and will be looking to use players I haven’t tried in my other saves so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheJanitor Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Got an itch to recreate Wenger's Invincibles in FM. I can't bring myself to play with Arsenal, so I picked Monaco instead - the club from which AW joined. Financially solid, good youth setup, and a squad that fits a 4-4-2. Other than some obvious connections - Wenger and Henry - Monaco got an actual invincible on the books (kinda) - Cesc Fabregas. Granted he didn't play a single game, but he was there . Also, Vito Mannone is here for some reason. Picked Bergkamp as a first team coach and Ljundberg as a B Team coach, as well as some Wenger-era staff members: Bould, Grimandi, and Clark. Here is the tactics: Only change I make during matches is sometimes drop the mentality to "Counter". Badiashile, Tchouameni, and Diop are the core - Campbell, Vieira, and Pires of the future. Upfront, Volland typically plays the F9 role, but he picked up an injury. My top priority is finding a RM - Diatta is surprisingly good, but I need someone who is a better fit for the role. Adeyemi would be a dream signing, but I probably need a more realistic option. I also really want Wirtz as my long-term Bergkamp, but he will be even less realistic than Adeyemi. I also want to bring back some of the boys: the crown jewel is Mbappe, but also Fabinho and Bernardo Silva. Even some of the less-successful names would be great at this level - Lemar, Martial, Bakayoko. Hilariously clashed out of the CL against Sparta Prague. Would be a nice twist if my invincibles first match would be a home loss to a lesser side. But in the league, so far so good: 6 out of 6, including difficult matches against Nice and Marseille. Long run, I doubt it will stay like this too long, but it's a long-term goal. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilsonJuve Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Stade Rennais F.CFounded in 1901 the club have went 121 years without winning the Ligue 1 title. The club has an outstanding academy which has produced many talents over the years, most recently Ousmane Dembélé who now plays for Spanish giants FC Barcelona and Eduardo Camavinga who recently moved to Real Madrid winning a La Liga title and a Champions League title in his first season there. Hopefully the youth production will play a big part in the future of this save as we attempt to claim our first league title and dethrone the dominant PSG both domestically and in Europe but that goal is a long way away...... Upon joining the club this is the situation we find ourselves in, Only 20 players in the first team with one player missing for the first 7-8 months of the season which leaves us 4 players away from a full substitute bench. I have had a good look at the youth products at the club and separated them into three groups, A - the ones I think will make it at the club, B - the ones who have a good chance of making it at the club and C- players who I will keep an eye on. A - B- C- Yann Gboho Noah Fracoise Dogan Alemdar Lesley Ugochuknw Junior Kadile Medhi Kalem Wilson Samake Matthis Albine Mathys Tel Dalangnynpole Gomis Desire Doue The sad part is these players are way off first team football so will more than likely be sent on loan if a decent team comes in with some good game time on offer. Otherwise they will remain at the club and hopefully get some game time in some cup draws or some easier Europa Conference League ties. Transfer wise we have a budget of £12.82m so we will need to be shrewd to add enough depth to the squad to avoid exhaustion. Looking at the team I'm happy with the goalkeeping options and we have a couple of youngsters who could be backup if one of them gets injured. DR/DL we have two players in each position so may need another backup player who can play on both sides to be safe in this long season. CB we have four at the club but one of those is our long term injury and another isn't up the grade so two more in this position is a must. DM is lacking so I would be happy with another as the tactic I have in mind will use one. But the rest of the squad MC / AMC / AML / AMR / ST Im happy with unless someone really stands out who I can't turn down. Transfer Targets Defender comfortable playing both DL/DR bonus if they are also comfortable at wing back. Two CB,s one to play/challenge for first team football and another to rotate. DM with only natural player fit and another who isn't up to standard as backup we will require another DM to challenge for first team football. As far as outgoings the only players leaving the club this season will be younger players who are not going to make the grade. If we can manage to spread some of the transfers above over a couple of seasons we may have money to invest in some young players who we could potentially train up and sell in the future.Season Objectives The board have set some very achievable targets for the first season which is reach the second round of the Europa Conference League, Ligue 1 qualify for the Europa Conference league (6th position) and reaching the quarter final of the domestic cup. Both cups are only preferred which takes a little bit of pressure away but they require the league position. The final area of the squad which needs immediate attention is the clubs staff I mean just take a look. A full overall will be happening to make sure the club is starting on a fresh slate. All staff will be removed from there positions and replaced with much better options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two CB,s one to play/challenge for first team football and another to rotate. DM with only natural player fit and another who isn't up to standard as backup we will require another DM to challenge for first team football. We identified where we needed to strengthen for the coming season and have made some transfers. First up is Laurent Koscielny the experienced French man joins on a free transfer and provides a cheap short term solution to the CB position. He will do well mentoring some of the youngsters and on only £10k p/w is a very good piece of business. Two CB's were needed and two were purchased the second arrival is Jackson Porozo who joins from Boavista for £2m upfront and £500k a season for the next three years (total £3.5m) At 20 years of age the Ecuadorian is already on par with the best defenders at the club, some impressive physicals and room to grow he could be a rock at the back for years to come. He also arrives with low wages on £9.5k p/w and as you can see from the screenshot his value has already doubled from what we paid. The next player we wanted was someone who could cover on both the LB and RB position's and ideally play wing back and that's exactly what we got. At £3m upfront and £1m per season for three seasons (total £6m) this was the most expensive signing we made. He has very rounded stats and is still only 22 years of age, due to him being at PSG the wages offered are on the higher side at £27k p/w but I believe long term it is a good investment. Capped at u21 level hopefully he can push on and reach his full potential at the club. And finally the DM that we needed is Elisha Owusu. Already adapted to France from his time with Soxhaux and Lyon we paid £2.5m upfront and £1m a season for the next three years (total £5.5m) Versatile in the middle of the park he can play CM, DM or even cover at CB if needed. I have always had a soft spot for Ghanian midfielders since Michael Essien burst onto the scene at Lyon then Chelsea. Hopefully he can continue to develop and reach his potential at the club. From the £12.8m budget available these players have cost us £7.5m plus signing on fees leaving us with £3.4m if the right player becomes available before the end of the transfer window. Im really happy with the way the team is turning out already and hopeful that the players signed won't flop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tel does look good im not sure if his potential is fixed or dynamic but his value on my save is £550k - £5.4m which is awesome for a 16 year old.

WilsonJuve Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 The last player we brought in was Alexandre Parsemain he was brought to my attention by one of the scouts and Rennes were willing to accept £1.4m sadly for me though he had just signed a new contract and wouldn't discuss personal terms. Fast forward to deadline day and they had listed him for loan so we agreed a deal with an option to buy for £1.7m before the loan ends. As a few people in here have managed Nice or managed in France and are aware of the player you will know wether this was a good deal or not. Im happy unto now he is young a striker and French.

WilsonJuve Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Start of the season. So the first few games of the season are out of the way and as you can see from the screenshot below things are going pretty well. Friendly wise we played against much weaker opposition apart from FC Utrecht who we managed to win 4-0 at home. League wise we have 5 wins from 5 games with the standout being the 12 goal thriller in the season opener to Lens, a few tactical tweaks later and we only conceded 2 goals in the next 4 league games. PSG have obviously matched or form and sit top of the league. Another thing to note is all the league games so far have been against teams predicted to finish 12th or below so we haven't really been tested. Next up though is Marseille away from home hopefully this will give us a better gauge of where we are at. We also played our first game in the Uefa Europa Conference League a tournament I would love to win. Tottenham and Roma are our biggest competition going forward but there is also teams like Galatasaray to watch out for. Our first game was a 7-0 thrashing of Maccabi Haifa despite the landslide win we sit 2nd in the group after Jablonec also knocked 7 past Sheriff Tiraspol. Doku managed to score 4 goals but the highlight of the game was 17 year old youth team graduate Lesley Ugochukwu making his season debut and getting himself on the scoresheet in the 19th minute and finishing with an impressive 7.9 match rating. More game time in the league will slowly be introduced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballfreak78 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 I'm managing Rennes as well. I must say that this is my most fun save I've had in years on FM. I'm 3 seasons in and finished 2nd every year. I just started season 4, 10 games in and I'm top but PSG are lurking with a front 3 of Mbappe (He left on a free and came back), Haaland and Raphinha.

I've been using a 4-5-1 (AML and AMR) in matches I'm favored and a 4-1-4-1 when I'm up against PSG level teams. With the amount of pace the wingers that the team has at the start of the game (Doku, Sulemana) and Forwards that like to press, this formation has suited me well. In the first transfer window I brought in Jaime Seoane from Huesca for £2.2 and Josip Sutalo from Dinamo Zagreb for £2.8. That was it; the squad had enough cover imo to not bring anyone else in. Finished 2nd behind PSG by 4 points. I'm in season 4 and I finally have a team that is deep enough to challenge PSG and Champions League. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Beckham Posted July 30, 2022 Author Share Posted July 30, 2022 (edited) I just started a new save with Bordeaux with the latest transfers/promotions and relegations so Bordeuax start in Championat National after spending the previous season in Ligue 1. I have got rid of a few of the high earners and I was hoping a Mr @Jogo Bonito had some lovely recommendations from the African leagues. Any hidden gems you can tell me about please my friend.

john1 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Not played my save for few months and decided to fire up my save again. Just came across this and not far off from Barca! so determined to get past them! Already won Trophee des Champions with 3-0 win over Strasbourg. Also won Super Cup with 2-0 win over Atletico Madrid.

john1 Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Tsarev is like a cheat code! Incredible goal scoring already and he's only 24! Also he's not far off from most league goal scored for the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulienEstevesPires Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) I wanted one last challenge to finish fm22, it could be here but I have doubts about the team. I didn't want a very strong team but one that had good young people and a good academy structure, it can be in ligue 1 or 2. no summer downloads update: I wanted to try to implement a tiki taka 433 Edited October 13, 2022 by JulienEstevesPires Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
