Football Manager 2013 News & Discussion Thread

[rsnomar05]

With the announcement of FM 2013 today, I figured it was a good time to start a dedicated thread to discuss all of the news/info as it gets released.


There's a great writeup of the new features here:

I love that you can take a team from an individual save and run it against other players in an online tournament. We can have an insane OS Club World Cup before FM 14 comes out to determine who, among OS posters, has put together the best team (HINT: It's going to be me).

Excited! I put a lot of hours into FM 2012, that was my first time into the series. I did Feyenoord as a career for about 4 seasons and did the Netherlands national team.

finally! Been playing since FM10 and probably got a good ~1100 hours total in. But no rush for FM13, I'm still deciding what club to start (before geniescout comes out). I usually play clubs w/ new coaches and I got it narrowed down to:

Villarreal
Besiktas
Herenveen
PSV
Tottenham
Barca (of course! Finally)
QPR

Why? If you don't mind me asking, that just seems pointless.

I guess for realism sake, instead going for a team who's coach has been there forever. I think i may try Villarreal myself.
