That's an interesting one from the transfer window. Diogo Dalot signed for Widzew hah . Look at the wages. Widzew is a place to wind down the career. But I am shocked that high rep player comes to play in Poland. Didn't really play much in Barcelona though.

S11 - February 2034 Ekstraklasa Amazing start to the new year ! I have started with 2nd team, hence why the thumping from Slask. I wanted to make sure we play 1st team against Olimpia and that paid off. The next 2 games, we probably shouldn't have won, as we were worse then the opponent. After 23 games we have 28 Points ! For context last 2 seasons we only managed to get to 32. Maybe this campaign will be a lot less stressful then last.

No problem mate I totally understand Tbf, I sometimes get that when things are not going my way I find it tough to load a save especially now with youth only in Poland where we struggle every season to stay up in top flight. But if the results go my way I can end up to play through the night sometimes just by saying to myself "just one more game" and when you realise its 6am I personally really enjoy the updates and checking through the saves that I follow with a coffee in the morning before work has become some sort of a routine for me

I agree! He is not scoring a lot yet though, but I think the goals will come

Facilities ummmm,, WHATT ? It was meant to cost only 650k !!! I can't see this loan in the list. The other 9.5M is for new stadium. Unless the game has confused itself.

S11 - December 2033 Ekstraklasa What and end to the year ! We finish the year with 2 wins in a row, and we close the point gap with the teams that are above is in relegation fight. With 1 win we can now advance as far as 12th. This is first goal of the season in the league for Szczepankiewicz(09c)* . I think this is a player that improved the most since coming in a youth intake and is developing really well.

S11 - Youth Intake Preview Again seeing an A in here is really good, comparing to what we have seen in past seasons. A decent striker would really be handy for us.

Not the end of the season we would have wanted, but glad to see you back The progress in past few seasons is phenomenal.

Anything decent in the job market that you decided to step down ?

S11 - November 2033 Ekstraklasa Not a bad month, considering we lost where we were expected to lose and we won where we could try and salvage something. The situation in the table is not great, we trail 5 points from safety however we have 1 game in hand Polish FA Cup Widzew were way better then us, we played the second team on this one and got somewhat punished for it.

Absolutely no problem Glad I could help if I did Good Luck with your save. I will make sure to follow that !

I have done a build a nation save in Poland in FM22 on these forums, However I have done it my way so I took different approach. I'd love to do it again and I might in FM25 However if you look at SecondYellowCard, he does quite a lot of these every FM, where he utilises loan farms to build the whole league. The key to getting league up the rankings is that not only you need to collect points, but also other teams. Also he probably has few guides in what to look at. Getting Nation up in rankings is trickier in a way that you can only work with players that your clubs produce. In Poland its quite tough in that sense, they don't produce wonderkids every season unfortunately.

Congrats on managing Warta and getting to Champions League ! Another team from my home time which I am also a fan of I managed to clinch Champions League with them in FM22 when I was doing Build a Nation My Way save on these forums

I have checked this info in in-game editor for nation. 3 years is probably when the players become homegrown and they are under some age, this helps Champions League registration. Rakow are currently dominating in my save, they won like 3-4 titles in a row. They still fall behind in fanbase and Stadium size, I think they can grow big, but need a lot of time, whereas with Lech, its just results that are needed

S11 - September & October 2033 Ekstraklasa After 8 losses in a row we finally find a breakthrough with a win against Ruch. 4 points out of 9 in October is decent giving our recent form. With one game less we are 16th with 2 points to safe places. Polish FA Cup Decent win against Odra Opole and then we needed pens to despatch Rakow's second team. Widzew up next.

They have to be continuous 5 years to get nationality, and then they need to declare to play for you, eg. they can't have been playing for their home nation. In my current save there is only 1 player in national team that has been nationalized. He's been signed to Rakow in 2026 and made Poland debut in 2031. I think it is not that easy anywhere you go, giving that if you find a really good player, even if he is young, he will most likely be called up to their home nation team before you can call him up. There is also a factor that you have to ask him to chose to represent the second nation rather than home nation. I think if the player is on the younger side he might decline, but if he is a bit older like Tarassovs there is a bigger chance that he will accept.

Lech Poznan - great youth academy and one of the best teams in Poland I may be biased here though since this is my home town. With build a nation don't you want to build another strong team in a nation ? eg. take a team from a div below ? this way you add another good team to pick coeff points.

S11 - August 2033 Ekstraklasa Well, We have been dreadful this month. 4 losses and 0 goals scored. Somehow we are not bottom of the table. Transfers We have shifted couple of players Janik(05g) I think we have better options and higher potential players that we need to develop. Ernest Mika (04a)* He was constantly kicking up a fuss about playing time in rotation. he is Unambitious and Splawski(05a) is probably about same level.

S11 - July 2023 Ekstraklasa We have started well with a win against newly promoted Wisla, downhill from then on but they were teams from top of the table.

S11 - Season Preview The odds remain unchanged, and will be for another few years I think. We are joined by Wisla Plock, Olimpia Grudziadz and Ruch Chorzow who got promoted from league below. Transfers We made hefty £700 this transfer window Facilities

Good progress, you really are pushing for promotion. Is the first team in the league above? Or where is Esiliga B in Estonian structure? I know very little of their football (I am sure I will find out more this Thursday) I am guessing you will not be able to play in the same league as first team so you will remain in the current league?

S10 - Season review Ekstraklasa It was another tough season. We pulled some great results like a win against Lech or Pogon. Rakow yet again wins the league but suprisingly Radomiak finished with same amount of points. Warta and Gornik Leczna go straight back along with GKS Tychy(who were promoted with us) Polish FA Cup Disappointing that we went out without a fight against a team from tier below.

S10 - May 2033 Ekstraklasa A draw against Gornik, helps us yet again defy expectations and avoid relegation ! Rewards Records Awards

S10 - April 2033 Ekstraklasa A really good month for us. 2 wins a draw and 2 losses. Where we deserverd to lose against Slask , We could have beaten LKS Lodz. 3 games left we have 6 point gap above Gornik Leczna who we play next !
