Downloaded this save game from sortitout. It's set to start on the date of the World Cup draw and has the correct 32 teams qualified. Apparently it's not possible to pre-set the groups and SI don't have a license to release a World Cup save/update/version so this is the best it'll get. Gonna play through it with as many different teams as I can before the World Cup to get familiar with the squads. Started with an easy one. Brazil. Out in the group stages. Best go England next.

some sort of silent guardian appearing from nowhere after 2 years to provide world cup databases for FM

Is it possible to jump into the game and take a fucking penalty for my players? Fucking joke how many my team misses.
Whenever I'm on the attack and I get a pen I'm like fuck sake I'd rather the player just crossed the ball in, more chance of scoring.

2nd World Cup playthrough a little more successful. Used Argentina then of course Messi gets a tournament ending injury 20mins into the first game. W1 L1 D1 in the groups but got through and made it to the final only to be beaten by Croatia who had already beaten me in the groups.
Nigeria now...

Haven't played a flat four in midfield in an FM for years but this is working a charm. Only bought Sancho in January and I've only used this for a few games but giving Asensio the freedom of the city to find Kane or allow the midfield to come in works so well. Just beat United 3-1 to take my lead at the top of the league to 16 points with 8 games left, only dropped four points all season and I'm on a 53 game unbeaten streak. I was on something like a 30 game winning streak until I drew with Stoke around Christmas. The man on the left of the central two midfielders is a 19 year old regen who I've thrown into the deep end this season and he's been unbelievable. In the top 10 for all the categories you'd want your midfielder to be in, and chipped in with a few key goals along the way.

Probably had the most underwhelming depressing game i've ever managed on Football Manager recently. Started as Fulham, top all season, lost 4 of my final 6 games and threw the title away to Wolves having to settle for second. Then mustered up 6 PL wins the following season finishing last on the final day of the season having being so close to surviving the drop.
On the upside Sessegnon and O'Riley are cracking players.

Find this game quite prone to crashes which is annoying meaning I have to save before and after every game just in case I crash halfway through a match, like it did to me yesterday and I’d forgotten to save. So beating City 3-0 away on opening day got wiped out and now I’m just holidaying the game to try and get the same result and it’s not happening at all.

So did I but no other Steam games crash as often as this.
Anyway, got a ruthless team at the minute.
GK: Oblak DR: Alexander Arnold DCR: Gomez DCL: Van Dijk DL: Robertson MCR: Havertz MC: Asensio MCL: Hall (regen) AMR: Mbappe AML: Bailey STC: Kane
Bak (regen keeper) Meyer (regen LB) Maresic Woodburn Keita Sancho Brewster Jones Ravn (regen MC) Da Costa (regen DM) Bernardi (regen winger) Salah
Pretty much all of my players have values over £40m. Mbappe and Kane are both worth over £80m and Asensio, Havertz, Gomez and Alexander Arnold are all worth £60m+.
Icardi yet again is a major disappointment on FM. Bought for £98m and sold for only £47m after a brilliant start and underwhelming seasons after. Firmino has just gone for about £60m because he was getting old and didn’t fit the team anymore. Dani Ceballos, who I bought for £35m and who never really fit in, has just gone for £50m. Which is good cos I’ve just put around £180m into getting Mbappe and Havertz.

Second season with Fulham (first in the PL) and i've just routed Spurs inside my first game leagues 6-0 with 3 18 year olds scoring in Maresic, Sessegnon and Sancho and a 17 year old scoring in O'Riley.
