Hi,
I have run a team in a small country for many seasons now. I have built up a powerhouse. However, I continually get beaten by inferior teams from big countries. I’ve been shocked at some of the results over many seasons.

Each group of players in my team matches up favourably with the significant majority of clubs in the game.

Is it just that my tactics and strategy is terrible? I dont think that I suck, I do great in the National League and National Cups and my Manager Ranking is consistently high.

Going to a big country and building up a new team from scratch is going to take too long. Especially with the way scouting works now. tbh, there’s only 1 team I would be interested in, but its always got a manager and looks to be a bit of a mess. Even if it becomes available, I dont know how to sell players. Nor scout for new talent as efficiently as I used to be able to do.

Regards,
Hounddog

Hello,
it feels like selling players is impossible now. I have a 90 tackle defender I want to sell as I want more space to develop some young players. However, he is rated at over 1mil but even at 800k he is not getting any attention.

Do I just have to fire the players I dont want? Used to be good to get some money back for them from computer controlled teams.

Regards,
Hounddog

My recent report for a player with a star:

Full Potential
I am not sure about when this player will reach his full potential.

This report is not adding value, not much point having it as an option.

So does this mean that I must play the same 11 players, and have the same 3 substitutes, for every single game?

My best striker has bad morale, but I have kept him mostly out of my league games and played him in every cup game to ensure his has high stamina.

To ensure good morale, do I just pick 14 players total, and play them to death now?

Selling players is a mechanism I have not yet worked out how to do properly. I need to get some space for a youth guy coming up, any advice?

So do these changes mean that as I have a tiny stadium, I will not be able to get any significant revenue?

My normal club home matches would not draw a big crowd, so does that mean that I have a real limit to how good a squad I can afford?

Wow, I need to read the front page at log in. My bad!

Yes, I see your point, managing in Croatia was tough. Especially was when I started, Croatia was ranked last in all countries. I had to adopt a technique of patience. I found youth players with potential and developed them. Now after many (10?) seasons, Many youth have developed into players with great skill. Selling some off at the right time also helped me to improve my team.

Thanks for your patience, and great game,
Leigh

Hello,

my transfer budget, medium ticker Primorac Biograd, has gone back a decimal point.

I selected level 5 investments, and should have a much, much higher transfer budget than just 2 million.

I also believe that my total wage limit was higher than it actually is, but can not remember the exact number I settled at during the investments window.

Thanks,

Hello,

player value has gone back a decimal point. For example:

Instead of being worth 28 million, my player is now worth 2.8 million.

This is consistent for every player in the Medium ticker game.

Can this change be readjusted back to normal?

Thank you,

Thanks guys :)

I had been putting some of my guys into the National Squad just in case it was of benefit. However, for my recent European Cup games, I just picked the best squad possible. Croatia beat England, but then we lost to Portugal. Tough draw, but am glad I gave them my best shot!

Hello,

do players improve their skills when participating in the European Cup? Is it by 5 points?

Thanks,

When I won the National Cup there was no entry in my newspaper about it.

Also, when my little team made it into the group stage, and then into the finals, of the European Cup, it would have been nice to have had an article about it.

:-)

Thanks,

I just realised that I can rescout players who I have already scouted!

How do I determine how accurate initial scout reports are? Is there anything I can do to a player to improve their potential when I run another scout report?

Thanks,

Hi,

I seem to be addicted…

Hi,

can the Player Statistics page be adjust to include the Youth players with the rest of the team too?

I know it must be rare to have youth players involved in real matches, but I keep forgetting he is down at the bottom of the page.

Thanks,

Hi,

when you get an in-game email, the links do not work. When you click on them, a match report or player info for example, it opens the site index page: rubysoccer.com rather than the link to that report or player.

Love the game :-)

Thanks,

Hi,

There are 32 teams in the Champions League group phase, but there are only 16 teams in the qualifying phase.

How are the 16 teams already in the group phase chosen?

Is it the top team in the first 16 ranked countries that get an automatic spot in the group phase?

Thanks,

Hello,

I would like to make a team with only players from my Country. Can the Scout Search page be adjusted to include an option to be able to search for all players or just ones with a particular Nationality?

Thanks,

Hi,

I am now also manager of a country. Now what?

I see that I have a new icon on the National team players called “Replace”. When I click on it, it just takes me to my normal default “Info” page.

Any hints on what to do?

Hi,

I had money in my transfer budget at the end of last season, now after moving over to the new schedule, I have 0$.

Can you fix?

Did this happen to anyone else?

Thanks :)

I just wanted confirmation that if I did that, I would keep managing my team as well.

Am about to win my league (hopefully) and did not want to risk being dropped as manager of my club.

Hi,
I wish to remain manager of my team, but have noticed that some people also are manager of a country.

How can I manage a national team as well as my current team?

Thanks,
