Tikka Mezzala Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Good luck! I love a South American save! I've only ever managed once in Peru, and that was with Alianza Lima way back in FM08. Had some really good national team players in the side back then. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Liam Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 (edited) I've managed Universitario on both FM23 and 24, unfortunately I wasn't successful either time, but I liked managing them and love their huge stadium. In case you've not managed in Peru before FM does simulate the effects of playing at high altitude so away games against teams like Cienciano, Sport Huancayo and especially Binacional are very difficult as your players condition deteriorates much quicker than usual, whereas your opponents won't as they've adjusted to the conditions. Good luck. Edited July 13 by Sir_Liam 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Liam Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 If you want to know which teams play at high altitude you have to go into the editor and look at the city the stadium is in as unfortunately the game itself gives you no warning. I did make a list from my FM24 save game and the ones to look out for are the 3 mentioned above, Cusco, Garcilaso, and ADT which are all above 10,000 feet. UTC and Melgar are also ones to look out for, but they're not as high up and so the effect isn't as strong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 13 Author Share Posted July 13 Jan 2023: The league season has kicked off, with 2 back to back wins with a solid show from our defence and also our attackers The season preview, has us finishing 4th. After 2 games we are within the top 6 - 34 more games to go overal in league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 13 Author Share Posted July 13 Feb 2023: We continued our good start to the season, but a narrow frustrating defeat away to Cusco saw us drop points for the first time this season The top 6 after 6 games puts us joint top, on a positive note for us our long standing rivals Alianza are all way back in 9th.

Rick87 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Good luck, South America is fun to play, I had a enjoyable save in Bolivia with Club Aurora but bitterly regretted leaving to move to Argentina when Racing came knocking. Anyway, good start, that stadium looks pretty spectacular with the steep sides and mountains nearby! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 13 Author Share Posted July 13 March 2023: Saw the bad form continue and high scoring game vs Union Comercio had everyone on the edge of the seats as we grinded out a victory. After our 2-1 defeat in the Sudamerica prelims vs fellow Peruvian side Cesar Vellejo, the prize money for exiting this early is 200k. Top 6: With the bad form we almost dropped out the top 6. The begining of March also saw the transfer window shut. Our ins: The 2 frees were goalkeepers, the loan from Hearts was a 1 month loan Mayta comes in as 3rd choice keeper. Our outs: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 13 Author Share Posted July 13 April 2023: high scoring games and much better form return to the side this month, this helps us move back towards the top of the table. Also Alianza Lima move into the top 6 for first time this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 15 Author Share Posted July 15 May 2023 and half of June 2023 no loss within the closing games of the opening period was not enough for us to clinc the top spot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JawZy Posted July 20 Author Share Posted July 20 started off the closing stage with strong form, with an annoying loss at end of July. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 20 Author Share Posted July 20 (edited) August 2023 A massively disapointing result vs Cusco who over both halfs absolutely dominated us in our own ground. Cusco seem to be the team to beat this stage aswell. Lets look at the full overall table for this season so far Looking good fo a top 3 finish, though id be annoyed if a 3rd place were to happen Edited July 21 by JawZy 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 21 Author Share Posted July 21 Youth intake day, on the whole was very disapointing, i have signed up afew of these guys, but I dont expect any of them to get any where near first team action Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 21 Author Share Posted July 21 Sept 2023 Saw us go undefeated, but those two 0-0 draws are defiantly hurting any chance at the title this season - both in closing stages and overall top 6 in closing stage Cusco are really looking too strong right now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawZy Posted July 22 Author Share Posted July 22 Mixed form in the remainig closing stages, saw us finish second as I wanted after Cusco dominating After finishing 2nd in both opening and closing - we seemed to go into a semi final vs the opening stage champions, the winner would face Cusco, but we lost both ties to Cesar Vallejo 5-3 on agg Annoyingly we finished 2nd overall, by a narrow margin Player performance wise I was very happy with the high goals and assists coming from all over the pitch. Edison Flores will be missed if we are unable to get him to return next season Cesar won the playoff final 6-2 on agg. in the honours list, we are awarded with a third place finish for 2023. - Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
