Are you playing him in the right role? Make sure it matches his stats. Maybe say that you are disappointed with his form in the media.

Yeah, looking at his stats, he looks to be suited to a more advanced/poacher role
There's a hidden stat called "Adaptability", if this is low he won't adapt well to playing in the Prem. If you scouted him before hand, check the reports in case any of them say something like:
"Vagner Love may experience difficulties moving to another country".
I never had any problems with Vagner Love in the premiership.
I played him as a poacher alongside Jo in an advanced forward role and he scored alot.
Maybe he just needs time, try linking him with Jo so they form a friendship.
I like asking my players for reccomendations on players/coaches this always seem to cheer them up and increases form.
I have a few brazilians (Ramires, Jo and a few youngsters also used to have fat ronaldo) in my team so maybe thats why he settled well, and found form.
But maybe he is just shit on your game, everyone raves on about that Lukaku as is he is the best player ever and yet he flopped for me twice.

Yeah I've seen Vagner Love score a shit load in the prem. He just can't seem to play well.
Oh and Arsenal are in the relegation zone...

Arsenal 0-1 Luton Town
hehehehehe FA Cup, last minute winner.

I've ended up with some of the new generation of players that the Belgians are bringing through in real life right now - Vanden Borre, Dembele, Vertonghen.
Christ this game is bullshit.
I'm in the champions league places with 10 games to go despite being relegation fodder, and the game clearly doesn't like it. I've got fecking ridiculous injuries. feckING RIDICULOUS! I have no players left, for over two months I've had at least 7 of my squad permacrocked. Now it's gone beyond the ridiculous and I keep losing games that I'm dominating games and having 4 clear cut chances yet losing 1-0 to teams that have 0 clear cut chances.
cnut off.

I still can't quite believe that Everton won the league in the 2012/13 season here.
By a solid ten points too.

Why the feck does my assistant keep recommending piss poor staff members to hire? 'kin cnuts.
Everton have always been far too strong, isn't the main SI bloke an Everton fan or something?
They've never been that impressive for me. This season they're back down to around 12th, which is much more like it.
for feckS SAKE
Scott Carson just made about 15 near impossible saves in the same game to deny me a win. They score off their only on target shot all game.
cnuts.

......perfect timing. My worst ever injury crisis in the history of FM.
You can all catch a glimpse of the tactic i'm using there i see also. It aint half bad.
thats fecking nuts.Thankfully I'd be playing some of those youngsters quite a bit throughout the season so they just about scraped me through to the Champions League final.
My goal for this game is basically to make more money on transfers than i spend, which is going well currently. Vidic and Evra i'm going to ship out next to bring as much as possible.
Some of my regens are awesome. At the start of each season i just scout some of the most expensive 16 year olds in the game, usually does the trick for picking up the best available. There's always the odd random nationality player that slips under the radar though.

Kacar and Lukaku on frees?!
Yes please!
Yes please!
Woodzy, that's exactly what I've been dealing with for the last two months of the season, only I'm Coventry and my squad hasn't exactly got great strength in depth.
Did you make the Champions League place in the end?
Barca just offered me £20m, all up front, for this kid.
I'm probs gonna reject. He's the reason I sold Vidic.

3 games left, 3 points clear of Villa.
Switched to a 4213 (2 DMs, 1 CM) and beat reigning champs City at the council house, and then trashed Newcastle 4-0 at home
What a surprise, I lost my last 3 games, the first time I've lost 3 games in a row all season.
Check out Chelsea finishing 6th despite being the reigning champions. Arsenal finished 11th, but until about 30 games in they were in the relegation zone. They beat me 3-0 in my penultimate game.
Not bad though considering I finished 16th and escaped relegation by 1 point last season.

Playing in the German Supercup against Dortmund, 34 minutes in and already 3-1 up.Abdennour take the ball down the left hand channel towards the goal-line, cuts it back to Khedira on the corner of the box where he proceeds to literally run rings around three Dortmund players. He's asically just led them about the edge of the area for a while. Sebastien Kehl managed to trip himself up in the process as well too. Khedira had a pop at goals, bounced off the crossbar and fell to Hamsik to bury it.
I'd gif it if I could...it all just seemed so very, very odd.
I don't know any FM forums or site does anyone have an update with the updated leagues after the world cup with Spain as champions and Blackpool/Newcastle in the PL.
Made it into the Champs League in 2016 (finished 4th in 15/16).
Have fecked off Possebon and my third choice keeper thus far (I ended up getting Ochoa and another 5 star rated keeper on frees a season back
)
Brought in Alexandre Coeff (rated 4 and a half stars in 2016) from Wolves. Bidding for Defour. Considering fecking off Sturridge but there's really no reason to as I only get 10% of the sales back, and I'm way under the wages cap as it is.

So as it stands my default formation is
Vanden Borre/Coeff as a CM, Gonalons and Song as DM and ANchorman
* is a regen.
Mark Adam is a cracking young Scottish CB - 19 and better than any of my other players there, although he's prone to a howler or two.
Necid/Goodwin*
Ba/Sturridge .......................... Dembele/Vanden Borre
Vanden Borre/Coeff
Gonalons Song
Vertonghen .. Barre/Mongongu .. Adam* .. Utrianen*
Ochoa/Muslu*

The best places for FM stuff are the official forums (but the best forums need registration, as you can see), SortItOutSI & Fm-Base in my opinion.
Just got these results in my game.
At this point, Plymouth realised that it was going to be a long, hard season - when 17th place thrashes you 13-0. Even more so when you concede another 5 goals when your opposition goes down to 10 men!

The fact that Yaya Sanogo's a beast in this didn't help them.
I'm actually fairly pissed off now because I "only" managed to beat them 7-1.
Plymouth are that bad right now... 10 games, 10 losses, 5 goals scored, 49 conceded.

I'm about a year ahead of you in my game (it's the start of the 16/17 season) and the league whipping boys are crystal palace, managed by big sol campbell.Barca just offered me £20m, all up front, for this kid.
I'm probs gonna reject. He's the reason I sold Vidic.
He's not brilliant, to be honest. £20 million probably isn't a lot at that point, but I'd consider it. Then again, I might not. The strangest defenders are the greatest in some games I've had.
Edit: After having had a second look... I'd probably keep him. Not exactly Vidic, but solid enough.
Right. It's crunch time. I'm left with 3 quality goalkeepers, two bought for next to nothing and around the age of 20, the other being Adler - a legend for me, bought for £20million and valued currently at £29m and nearing 30 years old.
Played sparingly. common knowledge that he has a very high PA so best to stick with him.
Played about 2 games, yet he's become a wonderkid and 3 and a half star player without any effort, which makes me wonder if his PA is ridiculously high.
Which ones do I sell with the aim of A.) Making as much profit as possible and B.) Still being left with one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
Wonderkid issue number 2 are these two bad boys. One is a natural winger converted centre midfield and the other was both natural striker and centre mid. They are both very similar stat wise, but i don't really need either.
Do I hang on to them as they are both on relatively low wages with no current first team ambitions, or shall I try and get rid now while they are wonderkids and highly rated? I'm torn. They both do well at set pieces which has come very useful.
In regards to Mullen, I kept him. He's become quality and I slotted him in at right back and centre defence whenever needed. Even his poor positioning looks half decent now.

How do you retreive a save you played on another computer?
I've got a new laptop, on which I installed Steam and FM using the same steam account, but for some reason doesn't show my previous save that I wanted to continue. Any ideas how to retreive it?

how did you get those arrows in the formations
......perfect timing. My worst ever injury crisis in the history of FM.

they are from fm07 . loved that feature
Copy the saved file from "My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2010/games" from your previous computer and transfer it to the same place on the new PC and then it'll come up in the saved games
Since your playing with Steam your saved file location might differ but it works.
Was there in 08 as well iirc. Really wish FM 09 and 10 had kept it but well their easy enough as it is without adding the arrows
from what i remember ,08 had the curved ones and 07 had the straight lines
evra and nev getting forward

Correct sir, thinking about it I'm glad they got rid of the arrows; it was too simplistic.
