Beta is available tonight (Friday 22 October) for those that have pre-ordered.

Anyone uncovered any cheap wonderkids etc. yet?

The game actually lists the NxGn 2022 - the best 50 wonderkids in football.

It appeared in my inbox from my Press Secretary on April 1st.

I finished the season 4th with Newcastle.

Liverpool obliterated everything in front of them and won the treble. Man City somehow finished 5th (a point behind me) and Leeds 6th. Leeds were top 3 most of the season, and Chelsea after about 15 games were way down the table. They then went on a mental winning spree of about 10 odd league games.

As an aside, Man United are after getting Mbappe and Man City got Haaland.

I also finished 4th in the league. I was in 3rd place and looking good for a top 3 finish but I lost to both Man United and Arsenal in the run-in and had costly draws with Chelsea (who eventually finished 3rd) and Aston Villa.



Man United won the league and Champions League. I think they are too overpowered, to be honest. Ronaldo was a goals machine (35 goals in 37 appearances...11 goals more than the next best player). Liverpool won the FA Cup and Carabao Cup.

Tuchel was sacked by Chelsea at the end of the season as were Benitez by Everton and Southampton manager Hasenhuttl

Any good recommendations for logos and facepacks or is it just the usual FMScout ones?

I've listed some, cheaper and not so obvious ones in our FM2022 Group

Football Manager 2022 - Wonderkids

TCM for Logos are better than the FMScout ones imo

TCM22 - TCMLogos.com

They have kits and the DF11 faces on there too and if you use DF11 faces, the panels are out too now: Panels

Started a new save now that the game is out of beta.

Zero coaching badges. Sunday league player.

I spent the first few months applying for every single managerial role possible. Constant rejections. We got to near Christmas and I seriously considered restarting the save as it was clearly pointless, but then a club gave me a chance!

I got an interview at Helmond Sport, who are 18th in the Dutch second division. I said all the right things and on Christmas Eve I was offered the job.

I'm just analysing the team now. I've had to hire a very cheap assistant manager as the club didn't have one. They've also funded a coaching course for me to get my National C Licence.

 

[Dylan]

So we're in April now with 3 games left of the season. I've got us to the cusp of the playoffs but I'm not sure if we'll make it. We've definitely overachieved and two of my key players have just got long term injuries.

The squad is pretty weak but has some high potential youngsters. Had a few things to sort when I first arrived though. The club had 7 right-wingers. 4 of them in on loan!

 

[Mouth]

Is there a way to see a Pass Map as an average for the season or is it only the previous game?

 

[Dylan]

State of this, in the crucial last two months.

Somehow made the play-offs but had no chance against VVV Venlo. Need to adjust my training I think.

My second season got off to a terrible start. Two away games to Man City and Man United to start the season and I ended up shipping 5 goals to City and 6 to United but I haven't lost since in the league and currently sit in 3rd place after 13 games.

My Champions League campaign got off to a terrible start too away to Red Bull Salzburg who handed us our only other defeat of the season so far - beating me 3-1 after I was reduced to 10 men. I've since beaten Ajax and drawn twice with Barcelona as we sit in 3rd place and have a chance of qualifying for the knockout stages with two games remaining.

Raspadori and Madueke have been the best players that I brought in during the summer. I bought Lorenzo Lucca but he didn't get a work permit and has been loaned back to Pisa.
