Great responses; thanks!

My dream first season continues! Arsenal should hire me after the beatdown my rag tag team of Championship players and young prospects took the likes of Mertesacker, Welbeck, and Giroud to school

Wow

I open up the season against them, lucky me!

From SI, patch 15.2.1. now in effect:

"To download the update, simply save your current game, quit FM, then close and restart Steam. Then launch the game as normal and this should start your update automatically. As always the update is save game compatible but for any competition issues, you'd have to start a new game for them to take effect.

The update includes but is not limited to fixes for the following issues:

GRAPHICS
- All custom .fmf files can now be distributed via Steam Workshop
- Fixed 3D kits not displaying in the match viewer

USER INTERFACE
- Fixed various light skin issues in the match screen
- Fixed player duty not being listed on Make Quick Sub dialog
- Fixed rare cases of inbox failing to update properly
- Fixed 'Take Screenshot' shortcut

COMPETITIONS
- Fixed rare instance of Belgian league fixtures not being scheduled
- Fixed rare instance of Copa Libertadores not being scheduled
- Fixed ability to fine players multiple times
- Fixed cases of players not travelling for international games

IN-GAME EDITOR
- Fixed 'Edit Club Contract' check boxes

The match engine is unchanged and still the same version as was included in Update 15.2.0."

So FM Arsenal decided to play like the real Arsenal.

So I reached the Tim Cup Final by beating league leaders Fiorentina 5-2 on aggregate.

Screenshot number two is the league table right around the midway point of the season. I sit 6 points behind Fiorentina. Catching them will be tough, as they have only conceded 13 goals so far. The board, if you'll recall from an earlier post of mine, wanted a Europa finish, so I'm on pace to do better, which will hopefully delight them.

Finally, Javier Hernandez has 33 goals in 33 apps for me on Feb 9. I have never had a striker score at this rate in FM. If he keeps this up, he had better win a ton of awards.

Avellino is not a good team:

Apparently with the new system, I just don't get along with boards. After securing Champion's League Football, I re-signed some key players, and went off to sign up some transfer-listed folks to make the second team better and the board blocked 3 of the 4 transfers, all were well within all budget requirements, and were some big needs. This time instead of pressuring the board through the press I decided to resign as an Atalanta Legend. The game won't recognize it as a resignation because of the board, but it sure is.

Now we'll see what happens.
