Ronaldo Beckham Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) @6499red I just got my first win for San Marino national team. A nice 2-1 win vs Andorra. Slowly climbing up the rankings now as well. I only lost 4-0 to England which is pretty good. Edited November 25, 2021 by Ronaldo Beckham 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way in real life he would think he's going to play for Italy... Just keep trying and trying and trying... You'll probably have a few more. In FM19 I lost 4 Serie A talents to Italy - 1 was a top left back who was only given 12 caps for Italy, so that was annoying! A world class striker did play a lot more, so I didn't mind as much!! The only time in FM19 it changed was when I qualified for a World Cup finals - but hard to qualify when you keep losing top dual national talent! Good luck! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robterrace Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 More news from the Juvenes European adventure. After seeing off TNS in Gibraltar, the First Qualifying Round of the Champions Path saw Latvian Champs Valmiera face us. A 3-1 win in the first leg allowed us to relax a little bit in the 2nd. Next up, Hammarby, who are a step up to what we have faced previously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robterrace Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 We lost first choice keeper Alex Stimac shortly before the second leg of the Hammarby match, having brought back a respectable 1-0 deficit against a team who the media stated were far better than anything we'd faced previously. This was proven back in San Marino, as, despite a penalty from ourselves, Hammarby kept us at arms length and defeated us 3-1 on aggregate. We now face a trip to Hungary, to face Fehervar (who used to be Videoton), the Hungarian Champions in the Europa League Qualifying Round. The Hungarians will be a similar prospect to Hammarby, but based on our performance against the Swedes, we have nothing to fear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robterrace Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 So. A 1-1 draw in Hungary, set the scene well for the return to Serravale. Small ground, full house, and the news that Fehervars first choice goalkeeper was out injured made my mind up. It wasn't all out attack, but we went more direct, playing down the wings, and firing crosses in. This paid dividends as we ran out 4-0 winners, with midfielder Federico Berardi scoring twice as the ball fell to him, and the slow defensive movement allowed him to hit the top corner from 20 yards out. Further goals from striker Mattia Romei and young homegrown winger Federico Forcellini put us out of reach, and allowed the more important players to be withdrawn with 20 minutes to go. A trip to Israel and Haifa is next on the cards in the playoff, victory sees us into the Europa League group stages, a defeat puts us in the Conference League groups.

VSM are already based in San Marino And given that naturalisation takes 25 years in game (and appears to be 30 years irl) it just isn’t going to happen. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And apparently he’s pretty much always lived in San Marino according to another poster. To be blunt, they’re *****. But then so are our facilities. I’m hoping a couple of years in Serie A will give us the reputation and finances to start producing usable players, let alone good ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robterrace Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Ouch In terms of Sammarinese talent, this guy is probably the best out of my first intake in 20/21 Capicchioni is the best from my second intake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Beckham Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Apparently the San Marino FA were delighted we were competitive in the World Cup qualifiers. I don't know how when I only won once but I aint complaining. Other then that 1 win Vs Andorra the one positive I can take is I am scoring a few goals.

Is/will he become eligible irl then? seems odd as he has played at clubs "in" Italy but perhaps his permanent residence has always been in SM - it is meant to be beautiful after all. I ask because I've been avoiding calling him up as I thought it was a bug but with the glaring hole I've been left at CB id have no reluctance to call him up if its legit. Perhaps I will try find him on twitter/insta and ask him lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomassje123 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 (edited) I also started this challenge. I chose to begin in San Marino where Folgore is the club that I managed. Yes, I know that is probably the easiest to do but I wanted to give myself a jumpstart. It all started with the Qualifying round in the Champions League. The Qualifying round of the Qualifying round as I call it. I win the first two games and played HJK in the first Qualifying Round. I lost and also Mura was a bit to much for now. Now I have a nice balance. Is chose to sign players an a non-contract to save some money. There is really no money in this club. Competition was really easy. First 16 games I won. We lost a little bit of form but we still managed to be the best club by far. Was a little bit nervous but we won the competition so next year we play in the Champions League again. In the cup we lost the final Got the following achievements: Qualify for the Champions Playoff Qualify for the Champions Playoff QF Qualify for the Champions Playoff SF Qualify for the Champions Playoff Final Win the Champions Playoffs Qualify for Europe Win a European Qualifying Game (either Europa League, Europa Conference League or Champions League) Edited November 26, 2021 by Thomassje123 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheJonsterMonster Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 @6499red Please would it be possible to add some Serie D achievements for me? Won the double (Folgore Caratese must absolutely hate me after we sneaked past them with 5 games to go and beat them in the Serie D Cup final) but that Poule Scudetto thing at the end was a rather bizarre tournament. We beat a side and then had to face them in the semi finals, despite them finishing bottom of our group? They then FM'd us 3-0. Honestly, wasn't even close. I still don't know how we lost that game. Anyway, onwards and upwards to Serie C. I think. National side - we were leading England until the final 10 minutes when they ran in four goals in the Euro 2024 qualifiers. We had beaten Malta 4-0 away in the Nations League. Nanni is up to 7 goals for the national side now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadfncat Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) We did it! had a huge run of good form in the 2nd half of the season which led us through the playoffs. we got kinda lucky with the playoffs where ascoli and perugia both being on losing streaks coming into the end of the season so we ended up playing Benevento in the final. The stadium switch back to Acquaviva meant we sold out every single game, season tickets were 550 of the 750 tickets. But we are now firmly in debt and Serie A progress will need to save us. National team was pretty uneventful. we lost all of our Euro quals games by a lot and were relegated after losing on agg to Borat Edited November 27, 2021 by deadfncat 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also play with Folgore but I can't scout outside of San Marino so I find it very hard to find players I make liberal use of trials. Basically, when I get the scouting center update I offer a trial to almost everyone on the list. Also, with the money you make from CL and ECL in the first season with Folgore you can send scouts out to Italy and Southern Europe for a price. My biggest issue the first season was that I was constantly listed as 'struggling' with staying in the wage budget. I basically just ignored it and did what I wanted, hoping the board would reward us second season with a good increase and they did. That one is a bit weird though because the actually 'wages' for all of my players are $0 but I guess they also include the 'per appearance' fee into your per week wage calculation. I have also had an nearly 100% turnover from season 1 to season 2 and expect I might again going into season 3, unless I am able to go pro. Finally, I use my connections as the national team manager to scout all of those players and try to see who I can lure to the club with promises of playing in Europe . . . hence why I was able to get Colomubo from an Italian Serie D side.
