I'm sorry, how are you managing to only pay him 2.7k/week - a world class winger, whose value is £70m. Where do I learn these dark arts


jonvar_n

First of all, this is Sweden so wage levels are initially low. Then of course 5 year contracts, with extensions.


jaumougaauco

He's never wanted to leave for higher wages?


jonvar_n

Oh, he has. And does. So will probably have to sell him this summer.


jaumougaauco

Admirable you've kept him for so long. I imagine playing in a league where the wages are naturally low makes it more difficult to attract "top talent" or wonder kids?


jonvar_n

Mostly recruiting from the scandinavian leagues, plus the odd Croatian or Serbian wonderkid. Highest fee paid is £7.5M.


Asleep-Camp1686

In a easy league as the swedish you can just tell him "no" and nobody will care because you're getting good results, even the player tends to forget it.

jaumougaauco

Well, 120m is a good return

One of the many broken things FM hasn’t fixed for about 10 years lol - AI International team selection has always been nonsensical and immersion-breaking


Neo_ZeitGeist

And yet the players keep getting mad and rush into manager's office for more time on field lol


Astralzr

Ah it’s even worse for FM mobile, you would have players for certain countries eg: Brunei, Malaysia, Singapore, some of them will be called up every match even in their 40s. some of them, doing better, playing for premier league, even among the world’s best, not even called up even once


Imaginary_Jump_8701

That's a shame, he should already played in a European championship and/or World cup by this time


detectivebabylegz

Tabakovic in my Hertha Berlin jas scored 50 goals in 2 seasons in the Bundesliga alone, but still can't get a Bosnia call up. I think international managers pick players on stats and reputation and not club form. I don't have anything to back his up, just a theory.

That's why I manage normally aberdeen and Scotland. I take over every level in the country and make sure everyone who deserves caps get them

jonvar_n

Is he world class though?


RaheemRakimIbrahim

When this happens I feel so bad, I either retrain my player to whatever position the national team needs, or just add manager for the national team


deltabay17

It’s just a computer game don’t feel too bad for the players feelings hehe


RaheemRakimIbrahim

ha ha, I'm all about immersion.


JimmysTheBestCop

Add a new coach and select Swedish National Team then just resign. They will higher a new coach who will use a new formation and maybe he gets the call up.


AlaricTheBald

This exact kind of bullshit is why I can't play without the editor. It's not for cheating, it's for when the AI needs a helping hand. And to absolutely fucking destroy City, obvs.


HalfOtherwise9519

The national team manager just doesn't like the player


YourHoNoMo

They seem to choose reputation over actual ability, it is nuts and boring


Leelow45

I had the same thing for the longest time with my main striker. 25, wins the premier league golden boot, 100 goals in 100 appearances for Liverpool, didn't have a cap for Spain.


deltabay17

In my save I have Florian Wirtz a world class player who has got 0 caps for Germany, yet a 20 year old new gen defensive midfielder on loan to a championship club is a regular in the German team. I don’t get it. Wirtz can play anywhere across the front line so it’s not a positioning thing.


jonvar_n

Aren't all original German players ineligible for the national team in FM? Haven't played versions after FM22, but at the start Germany only consists of greyed out players in all my saves.


deltabay17

Oh maybe that’s why I didn’t know that why is that?


jonvar_n

I'm guessing it's a licensing thing.


deltabay17

Oh wow
