What level of financial strictness are people using for the best realism?

Also what about European Competition 1st season and summer transfer window for default rosters? Sorry, soccer/futbol noob here.

Realistic would probly he strict but I play on lenient. When you set up European competition, just seed it then reseed it and your set. Realism would call for 1st summer window being disabled

Believe me I was lost when I first picked up my first FIFA game. No playoffs or anything seems weird (well MLS has playoffs but I never play the MLS anymore). Once you go through a few seasons you will get the hang of it. The relegation is awesome, and I love playing in all the different cups. And then as others have stated you can end up coaching a national team and try to qualify and win the world cup. FIFA's manager mode is one of the, if not the deepest franchise modes. Especially with the added scouting now for transfers and still having to scout for your youth academy too.

Never really followed soccer till last couple of years, but I find it refreshing compared to the stagnant- play long season/playoffs & repeat cycles that other sport games offer.
Using the premiere leauge for example, you have the excitment of promotion (if you start out in lower league) & regulation along with competing for final standings, the Champions cup, Europa cup, FA cup, CApital One Cup along with UERO or World cup rolled into one season. Thats why I always avoid starting a career in MLS.

I know how you feel, use to be in the same boat, spent a lot of time researching wiki. LOL

If you get fired as a manager, will another team hire you? Or is that the end of your Career Mode?

It's not over. You can take a new team from a list of about maybe 6 teams that aren't that good

Is it possible to have multiple players in career/manager mode? Or to play CPU games? I'm thinking I want to play as Liverpool or a lower-tier team, but I'd LOVE to jump into Serie A, La Liga, and Champions League matches as well.

I know the closest thing to this was tournament mode, which I read is absent from next-gen.
