Poison

@phd_angel The 2 Ryzen ones have the same processor, however the intel one is a bit faster and has a better gpu, so overall it seems the best choice. I don't know however if the DDR5 memory will be an issue in running the game (I'd guess not, but not sure, someone else might comment on that).

Found an elite midfielder named Danilo (probably well known, but I didn't know him - left footed too), however I think he's at Nottingham Forest now so not sure if it counts. Very expensive of course but worth it.

Playing in the Portuguese league, keepers (AI) are decent of course, but I've seen them do many mistakes too due to them being exposed to continuous pressure by my team. So I don't know about the "my keepers, not the AI" part. Btw passing dictates if a keeper is good in distribution, not kicking. Kicking is just how long can he send the ball. His passing is average and his physicals very poor, maybe that's the reason for the mistakes. Was he making mistakes in distribution or in saves?

I don't know what you consider fun but I play with Portimonense and the board accepts everything. It's so satisfying. Easy league too. Would you try that?

Yes, he can change his mind if you find a decent defender. Not all is lost yet.

Just Gegenpress bro!

I may have missed Popovic but I'm signing this guy (hopefully), talent abundance in my save (looks like the new R9 to me):

That's a cwb on support I think?

Use Cross more often? Though personally I don't find it bad. It's what happens in real life too many times.

Why did you sell Leao? I guess he wanted to leave. Did you at least speak to him? My first option would be Kvaratskhelia of course if you can afford him, you get an elite player and weaken Napoli, win win. Then I'd pray that someone from Rodrygo, Fati, Martinelli, Mudryk, Nunez isn't playing much and grab him on loan, one can only hope. If these two options fail I'd go for either Joao Pedro or Marcos Leonardo from Santos, both have good attributes and can most likely contribute right away. They are not Leao (yet), but they are more than decent.

He is a monster irl, he was just been called in the Brazil national team. Didn't suggest him because I thought he was already in Europe lol 🤣

Keepers: Expensive but really really good: Luiz Junior, Bento. Good option for LLM: Matheus Donelli Defenders (Centre): Good bargains: Sergio Barreto, Beraldo, Romulo. Fullbacks: Good options for strong teams: Heitor (right), Welington (left). Def Midfielders: David Ayala (Dlp), Jonathan Corozo (BTB), Amilton (Anchor), Santiago Longo (Carillero), Matias Kranevitter (Def Midfielder), Pepe (BTB), Murilo (Dlp), Giuliano Galoppo (BTB) Att Midfielders: Raphel Veiga, Matias Miranda. Wingers: Matheus Alisson (right footed), Giovane (left footed), Santiago Moreno (right footed), Fransisco Gonzalez (left footed), Mateo Silvetti (either footed), Airton (right footed), Facundo Kruspzky (right footed). Super bargain for LLM: Alisson Santos (right footed), world class not based in SA: Valentin Carboni (left footed). Forwards: Lincoln (CEC), Rodrigo Cezar, GB, Abiel Osorio, Ignacio Maestro Puch, Eguinaldo, Alexander Sosa, Alejo Veliz, Federico Girotti.

Same for Vítězslav Jaroš, he gets released from Liverpool (this might have changed with the patch). He becomes really good for lower league.

Definitely not. Even if RAM is maxed out it'll still run as intended. Could be your graphics, what is your card?

I used to play football semi professionally and I was a "soft" player (low aggression), didn't get involved much into things. However, I never got afraid in a dangerous situation (highish bravery). So they are not the same.

Yes, pretty much the same.

He's at Leipzig to my save, fares rather well in the CL. He even scored against Real Madrid in a very close encounter.

Extended feels nice, it's not "key" where you know highlight will lead to a goal nor full match which feels kinda excessive.

Nunez a CF, like a target man, mehh idk. Advanced or pressing forward might be better. Whatever it is, make sure to have it on attack to play a counter attacking tactic properly, he would be fantastic leading the line.

Sounds like opponents play way more defensively resulting in tough to break tactics. So maybe AI "adjusted" due to change in team reputation.

Do they have good defensive attributes? I have a forward with good positioning, marking and work rate and when I put him on the flanks he retreats A LOT.

I literally see them dribbling in the axle of the pitch like an amc lol. They keep going in and out in the build up constantly. Weird. It's about FM23 right?

Maybe passing should be extended, pretty sure you need "pass into space" too and counter. All in all, a completely different philosophy than what you are doing. Here's my instructions (NO specific instructions):

Just wow!

Roman Kvet is a solid option for LLM, available at the start of the game for 50k approximately.
