Any ideas how to download real faces, kits and logos for the prem for free? Also how to get lower leagues, for example Whitehawk?

Thank you very much, do I have to download every part? It is saying 2 hours 40 minutes for part 1 alone

sadly so, it's a lot of photo's. If you want to only get English players there is probably a smaller one for that.

I've shelved this game for the time being, I'm finding the match engine incredibly frustrating.

I've managed to set up a decent tactic which results in us dominating games and carving out numerous chances (averaging about 16 shots with about 8 on target). However I'd score more goals with Mark McCammon up front; CMS (two hattrick games, in which everything clicked, aside) and Dobbie couldn't hit the proverbial barn door (unless it had a goalkeeper painted on it, in which case they'd be bang on target), and Barnes scores one goal for every 10 or so chances. I've won quite a few games 1-0 with goals from my wingers (David has 9 for the season and I'm in early December). There's a complete mismatch between my possession and shot count and the final scoreline.

That then leads me on to my other issue, which is the actual 3D representation. It's a lot easier to accept issues here when winning, but when losing it looks completely ridiculous. Players completely ignore the ball (particularly defenders it seems) and allow opposition players to regularly run on to a ball that's gone right past them. My wingers are constantly stood offside so that when any shot rebounds out to them they score and it is disallowed. The defending generally is dreadful (marking non-existent) and don't get me started on the shambolic set pieces.

There's a lot I like about the game - the assistant feedback works well during the game and the training module is much improved (and actually seems to make a difference). But I'm really struggling to look beyond the issues in the match engine which, a few niceties aside, seems significantly poorer than last years effort. I'll be going back to FM2012 until there have been significant patches.

Still really enjoying the game.

Just finished season 2019/2020 and won the double by winning my first premier league title with Brighton and the Europa league. Also won the league cup in 2018/2019.

Lewis Dunk is at the heart of my defence but no other current Brighton players left in my squad. The other real life players I have in my squad who are all worth signing if you can get them are Jack Butland, Junior Hoiland, Ryan Bertrand, Ross Barkley, Jem Karacan, Steven Caulker and Sami Khedira. Karacan from Reading in particular has been an outstanding signing - signed him in the second season when I had been promoted to the premier league and he is consistently brilliant - not too difficult to sign either. The rest of my squad are regens mainly from Argentina and Brazil who are superb.

okay cheers

Disagree. If you REALLY want the full football manager experience download the nine level database from the FM community and start with a team in Sussex County league 1 and take them to Europe. Im managing Rye United and weve just won the quadruple in our first season.... Sussex 1, Sussex Senir, Sussex Challenge and FA vase.

For those of you struggling with FM take a trip to the FM community because FM really IS different this year. Plug and Play tactics no longer work. Now the best way is to build a simple tactic with the tactic creator and use tweaks and shouts during games. Its more a managing expereince and although takes longer is much more rewarding. In my first season I twice won games 5-2 after being 2-0 in the first 30 mins due to my in-game changes. That had never happened before in twenty years playing.
