I just got offered the Holland job...approximately how long do I have in game time to accept or reject it?

a week or so, if it doesnt already specify a date

Ah, can't continue without accepting or rejecting. What do you think, stay with Brazil (where I won 12 Olympics, 13 Confed Cup and 14 World Cup and only have 1 field player over the age of 30) or take a new challenge with Holland?

up to you really, sounds like you've won everything you can with brazil (assume you've won the copa america too) so i guess the next step it to take over netherlands and win the euros

yes - its quite hard, they usually get some quite good regens (if you have english/scottish league loaded usually), but you'll find they will rot at some of the bigger clubs

with the regens though, they definitely become better then where they are at IRL

If you ain't dutch, you ain't much.

Hi, I am new to the site, new to the game, and even new to Steam. I bought Football Manager 2013 and installed it. Now do I download the kits, logos, German national team, and premier league, etc or do I do something else? Like what order do I go in? And what is the best site to download all that? I live in the USA if that matters.

Sacco, you can go to sortitoutsi.net to get everything you need to make the game authentic. Just follow the instructions on the download pages.

The one thing that is a gigantic file is the Megapack for face pictures. It is well worth it to download, though.

I've still yet to do the megapack for faces.

Re: Any FM-related questions? Ask them here

what does 'look for overlap' shout do? its one of the few that i couldn't guess and check to see how it affected the game.

I couldn't go back after having it. Plus some of the old guy staff faces are hilarious. I finally figured out how to get real stadium pictures in instead of those seats. That incorporated into the Steklo skin is awesome. For news stories you get the players face next to the club's crest with the stadium picture as the background. It looks like the little box they have next to the newscaster. It's a nice touch.

Your wide players will look to make overlapping runs down the flanks when the ball is out there. For example, when your right mid or attacking mid has the ball the right full/wingback will make an attacking run more often instead of laying back.

It works well if you have skilled, pacey fullbacks, but it can leave you exposed at the back.

In my Chelsea save I moved into a new stadium and couldn't stand the seat pic so I found a picture of what Battersea would have looked liked and put that in.
