F J Posted June 19, 2023 Share Posted June 19, 2023 I want to request this competition be add in next versions of Football Manager and here my reasons: They particularities are impossible to reproduce in editor even with advanced settings: - Competition should have the final match in January 25th because is São Paulo city anniversary, due the playoffs be played with 48hr difference the FM postpone automattically the matches to have more interval. - Fixed Stadiums - each group are played in one city, and teams that go further keep their city preferences in playoffs Why this competition should be in FM? - It's a big competition with 128 clubs playing during 24 days. - Is the most traditional U20 competition in Brazil, despisting the National U20 competition that started in 2015, Copa São Paulo is played since 1969 - Scouts for every world big teams come to watch matches: Watford, Sporting-POR and Ajax: https://explosaotricolor.com.br/tres-clubes-europeus-enviarao-olheiros-para-acompanhar-jogos-do-fluminense-na-copa-sao-paulo/ PSV and Fiorentina: https://ge.globo.com/programas/esporte-espetacular/noticia/2015/01/olheiros-garimpam-jovens-revelacoes-em-todas-partidas-da-copinha.html Real Madrid: https://www.torcedores.com/noticias/2022/01/real-madrid-manda-olheiros-e-avalia-endrick-sensacao-do-palmeiras-na-copinha Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atlético de Madrid, Arsenal, Juventus, Milan, Bayern (this in 2008!) https://www.virgula.com.br/esporte/olheiros-europeus-vecircm-para-o-brasil-de-olho-na-copinha/ - Is the competition that revelead great players: Falcão (72), Raí (83), Cafu (88), Djalminha (90), Dener (tragically dead in car accident, this guy it's like the Neymar in this era) (91), Rogerio Ceni (92), Dida (93), Deco (97), Neymar (2008), Lucas Moura (2010), Alisson (2011), Marquinhos (2012), Gabriel Jesus (2015), Lucas Paquetá (2016), Vinicius Junior (2017), Gabriel Martinelli (2019), Endrick (2022) are some of the names that explode in this competition. - Some foreign teams already plaiyed in Copinha Like: Velez Sarsfield-ARG, Boca Junior-ARG, Peñarol-URU, Cerro Porteño-PAR, Nagoya Grampus-JPN, Tokyo Verdy-JPN, Kashima Reysol-JPN, Al Hilal-KSA, Bayern Munich-GER, Universidad Guadalajara-MEX, China U20 national team, Japan U20 National team. I know there are a lot of issues with Brazil, but a believe will be a nice competition to have in FM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
