Football manager 2021 teams4/2/2023 ![]() ![]() Half the Real squad announced they were retiring at the end of that season. We averaged a 25-0 loss every game but surprisingly only got sacked in early November. We took over Real Madrid, signed 40+ goalkeepers to play outfield and put 55-year-old forward Peter Hinds in goal, pioneering a 5-5 formation purely of AMs and STs. MW: Don’t we all? Two of my mates and I took this to the extreme one year though. Hasn’t everyone? I definitely have accidentally lost hours of play and then done worse when I had to replay those games afterwards, though. JB: I honestly can’t remember – but surely. Truthfully, have you turned it off and on after a bad result?ĮM: Yes, and anyone who says no is a liar. Regens? Jarrad Richardson came through my Arsenal academy, won golden boots and captained England to World Cup glory in 2026. MW: Real players? Yassine Benzia had a bizarre ability to just bag in important games despite average stats. Then he realised he was much better than us and left. Top goalscorer for two seasons running, 35+ consistently, with silverware to his name. I’ve got no idea why he said yes, but he did – and Christ, he was glorious. But there he was, a free transfer waiting to be picked in League Two, in his early thirties. I certainly didn’t know he’d ever been an FM god in a past life. As a 15-year-old, I’d never heard of Ibrahima Bakayoko. I’d love to say he missed that one through injury but he just didn’t turn up - none of us did. The driving force behind the aforementioned run to Europa League final. We can morph into 3-4-3 and 4-2-3-1 just by moving three players - and I'm terrified that opponents will cotton on and expose me.įM TACTICS The best formations and tactics you need to try Who is your favourite ever player in the game?ĮM: Yaya Sanogo on FM11 was an unbelievable goalscorer. My current set-up means the DM can drop into the defence if need be (I used him in the half-back role), the left-sided centre-back is a natural left-back, too, while the left-back in my team can push up to left-wing. The aim of the game is to win games, not play nice football and I don’t care how that makes me sound. What’s your go-to formation?ĮM: 4-5-1, very rigid. Just how Guardiola himself watches Manchester City, I believe. I’m a busy man… Oh, and I also sit on an upturned bucket in my bedroom. Gareth Jelleyman was throwing no wobblies in that team.ĮM: 2D match engine, maximum speed, key highlights only, no replays. But on FM 2006, my favourite ever game was taking an Oxford side in the Conference up to the Championship, via LDV Vans glory. JB: Unlike everyone else who seems to play the game, I don’t have a tale of taking Sutton United into the Champions League final. My university housemates watched it with me and were very kind afterwards. What is your greatest achievement on any version of the game?ĮM: I once took Brighton & Hove Albion to the final of the Europa League, where we lost to Basel. That's the saving grace of recent Arsenal. It’s much easier to manage your own club on FM when you literally do no worse. I built my team with a 4-4-2 to resemble the Invincibles, eventually replacing an ageing Aubameyang with Mbappe, in that Thierry Henry role as the striker on the left. MW: Last year I did a save with Arsenal, yes. No one wants to get booted out of their own club. JB: Good God, no – there wasn’t much to break with a crap real-life Leicester side of the noughties, but that was always my fear. ![]() If you want to turn Fulham into world-beaters you have to sell everyone you love. ![]() FOOTBALL MANAGER 2021 20 teams you need to play asĮM: No.
