Amazon prices seem steep. If you want it quick, buy it on steam or humble bundle, you will get digital download. The price is very high though again (it varies a lot). 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Amazon prices seem steep. It's free for this week and that has just been extended for another week from steam. Get a weeks gaming in and then look out for deals on the likes of cdkeys which will give you a steam code more or less instantly. Link to post Share on other sites

Each to their own but I never use those grey market sites, the publishers dont get the same money - they typically buy keys in really poor regions and then resell in more affluent regions at a discount. I've not known anyone to get a bad key from them, but it can happen. I'm more worried about supporting the publishers so they keep releasing games. Link to post Share on other sites

But I think with football manager/fifa etc which really just reskin their game each year (if even), provide a database updates and and keep it at full price 6 months after release I can make an exception and get it as cheap as I can. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Downsouth 6,175 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Have started to play some golden oldies, in my kitchen, by asking Alexa. Certainly seems to encourage a bit of exercise as I have noticed that others join in a bit of dancing. A good song to dance to, or move to if you prefer is "Born to be alive" by Patrick Hernadez my 5 yrs old grand daughter loves it. Actually I did enjoy going out for a bop when younger and was pretty good at the "Northern Soul" type dancing, who remembers "footsie" by Wigans Chosen Few? Now that was hard to do but good fun! Enjoy though this style of dancing by some was taken to much better limits 1 Link to post Share on other sites
p_mards 1,363 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Thanks for the help. Are there any good, affordable signings for Middlesbrough?. Any help I can get would be welcome!. I haven’t played Football Manager in about 5 years so I’m anticipating I’ll be as terrible as Woodgate. I’ve put myself as a Teessider in my profile so that should allow me a few relegations before I get the sack by Gibson. Link to post Share on other sites
boroie 484 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 @p_mards I've found it quite reasonable to get promoted with the starting squad, 3 things are really important I find 1. be positive to the players all the time, take every opp to praise them and be assertive - get their morale up and it will win you games 2. get a good assistant manager with high tactical knowledge and judging player current/potential ability - that will help with team selection 3. pick a formation and stick with it for 4-5 games at least, chopping and changing doesnt really work that well My current game I'm in 2035 and have gone through several tactical evolutions, started with a 4-2-3-1 defensive tiki-taka style, then a few seasons later moved to a 4-1-2-2-1 gegenpressing style. For the last 4 seasons I've been playing a very attacking 4-4-*****ng-2 which actually is working brilliantly. Link to post Share on other sites

Be careful cause if you praise them while they're playing terribly they'll often react negatively. Link to post Share on other sites
