    I really like the new feature of having training ratings.

    Just handed Oko-flex his debut based on a 10.0 rating in training that week. Brown got dropped for his third 5-6 rating in a row.

    I think training has a lot to do with work rate. Inaki Williams seems to get a 10.0 every other week and has 17 work rate.

    Broony is moaning about his age being the reason for it but im having none of it. Anymore of his * and he will be in the reserve!

    Last year's game they allowed any player already in the UK to be given a sort of temporary/acting national status so they didn't get effected by the new rules.

    Would imagine same again this year, so we don't have to sell 3/4 of your squad.

    Scouting bugged or changed? I'm sending mine all over the shop and getting virtually no reports back

    Edit: Just clocked they're on targeting free transfers cause I disabled budgets. * stupid feature

    Somehow won my Champions League group. Drew 0-0 in Munich before beating Utd 1-0 and PSV 6-0 at home. Was then 3-1 up in Eindhoven before losing 6-4! Beat Bayern 1-0 at home to qualify for the last 16 with a game to spare then lost 3-2 at Old Trafford. Us, Utd and Bayern all finished on 10 pts but its us and Utd and who go through. Hopefully get a decent draw.

    Won the League Cup beating Dundee 3-0 in the final.

    Level on points with Rangers at the top of the league but I’ve got 3 games in hand.

    Hopefully get some cash to spend in January! (Anyone got that far yet with Celtic who can confirm if you do?)

    Got this pe-ordered and cant wait to get stuck into full fat Football Manager on PC, as i had last years version on the Switch. I never sell any players in the first transfer window as i like to give every fringe player a chance, i remember in one of the older versions Derek Riordan was an absolute legend for me even though my assistant manager and scouts did not rate him, and his stats where not up to much either, luck of the draw i guess as in other save games he had been absolute gash. On my Celtic save on Switch Johnny Hayes has become a mainstay in my team and hes not rated either a guess every save game is different.

    Started playing this last night. Good to see some of our players with boosted attributes.

    Thought the budget would have been higher following the sale of Dembele.

    Signings so far:

    6 y/o Norwegian RB joining in Jan (few hundred k)
    McTominay (1 yr loan)
    Xadas (350k)
    Gronli (200kish)
    Marin (£1m upfront + £1m in 12 months)

    Extended Boyata and Brown's contracts.

    I'm still looking for a GK and a ST this window, will look at CB in Jan.

    Really struggling to offload players, I've even tried silly prices. Got 6k for DDV and it looks like Eboue is on the move for 700k. Trying to get rid of Hendry, Commper, Bitton, Christie, Gamboa and Hayes but no joy.

    That would do very nicely!

    Might splash the lot on Timo Horn.

    Brighton are after Sinclair so may punt him as overloaded with wingers just now.

    Looking forward to that then. I think I'm mid October so should be exciting to get that and sort out a couple key areas.... Like.... Goalkeeper.

    How do you add players to the training camp? Didn't seem to ask me about it then all of a sudden everyone in the team is unhappy theyre not in it.

    Decent amount! Had you reached the next stage of the Champions League?

    Yeah keeper is always tough with Celtic. Thats why I might splash the cash for Horn knowing that although it’ll be a huge fee I won’t need to look for a number 1 for the rest of the save. Probably my only chance to get him too cos Koln are top of Bundesliga 2 so doubt he’d come once they are promoted.

    Although I have 7 wingers I still think this is a weak area. Always feel that FM games are won on the wings. My wingers are decent enough but just don’t feel I have any standout players. Maybe spoiled last year when I had Pavon, Vargas, Roberts, Malcolm and Sisto at Celtic at one stage!

    Jarrod Bowen at Hull looks a good option and can play on both wings. Might also help with the impending foreign player restriction that looks like its just about to hit me. He’d be expensive though

    Have you looked at Nasri? Able to play come January anyway and still comes as a standout it seems.
