5 Tips to keep your FIFA 23 Career Mode Realistic!
ฝัง

- A few tips i've collated from playing FIFA over the past decade!
Keep as many original players as you can
FIFA players have such high squad turnover
IRL this kills chemistry
During the 10 year period between 2003/13, Leicester City and Sunderland signed close to 150 players each
2-3 starters per season should change really, with a few prospects
Lots of people will reduce the squad down to the bare minimum of 18 players, just keep the originals as squad filler
Real squads have around 25 match ready players with rest being fillers/youth
Youth Academy
Dont use academy scouts that are higher than your teams star rating
Try to only keep 1 or 2 players per area of the pitch, dont stockpile 5 LW’s while having 0 RW unless you plan to retrain
Scout countries that you have players from already
Neighbouring countries is another good place to scout
Buying Players
Fully scout a player before signing
Don't buy players that are more than 1-2 OVR higher than current best player, this rarely happens.
If you do, make sure it's either an old player returning to former club, or a short loan of a player from division above
EG if my starting 11's overall average is 66, the best player I can sign must be 68 rated. But, he can't be from a better team. The only exception is players over 30 years old, they can be 3 ratings above your starting 11's overall average.
Selling Players
Don't horde players, if you do reject an approach, offer the player a new contract.
If offer comes from team much better than yours and is over market value, chances are irl the team would accept
Keeping overall realistic
Dont sign players that are massively better than current existing young players. EG if you have an 19 year old with 70 overall, dont then sign a 17 year old who is 75 even if this is lower than your best players overall
Try to keep training to players who arent in starting XI
This helps with sharpness and will stop players increasing by 10 overall a season
Limit end of contract players
AI is dumb when it comes to renewing contracts
Can find world class players for no fee and unlike real life tiny wages
IRL free transfers usually cost a similar amount because of signing on fees and higher wages

The one thing that annoys me the most is coming up against Athletic Bilbao and they have Jarrod Bowen and Kingsley Coman on the wings.
Fr 😂
Literally, I’m doing cadiz rn and trying it so at least 50% of my signings are Spanish, and then there’s the other la liga teams singing English prem players lol
Jarrod Bowen is shite
@@21cabbage93 I had an Ibiza one where I was signing a mixture of players 28+ and 21 and below, and Maguire and Grealish made it. They fitted the philosophy so well 😂 grealish was a goated skipper
These are my rules for a satisfyin career:
-Always play a lower division team and make it ascend.
-Always consider 2 players for each role + 1 bonus keeper, 1 bonus midfielder and 1 bonus striker and nothing more, we're a small club, no wages waste.
-Sell a player whenever he can makes the club big bucks, doesn't matter how much affection i have for him, i'm not the boss, i'm only the manager and modern football is cruel...
-...except for "a people's hero", i always chose a 16yo local kid from the youth accademy to be "my Totti", the flag of the team, gotta keep him at any cost. I need ONLY 1 paladin and i'm happy with my fairy tale.
-Never fully rebuild in 1-2 transfer windows, that's BS.
-Never rebuild the team or a tactic chunk of it altogether each year (your defence sucks? Your wingers too? Your striker can't strike? Boo uuuh, your fault. Not the club's fault, the president paid for those players already, now it's up to you!)
-Buy max 1-2 players per SUMMER session, maybe, MAYBE, 1 more in January if i have a brutally injured player or i found an extrimely convienient free agent with a realistic not op overall.
-Never go fully Y.A. or zero Y.A., consider to have like 30/35yo veterans here and there, usually cheaper, and...
-...eventually they are the only players allowed to have a slighly more higher overall values than the division they got to play into. Aaaah pensioneers...
-Don't try to win everything soon, like the FA CUP final against Liverpool/City/Chelsea/Arsenal and teams like those when you are roleplayin a cornwall small club from English League 2, cmon man
-Use the "restart the match" option only if the script REALLY ruined a match, otherwise DON'T EVER DARE. Accept the fate. It's ok to lose matches.
-Don't simulate more than 15% of the total matches each season. LIVE THE LIFE MAN! FEEL IT!
-Let the OCD kicks: set the right kit numbers in a realistic way, edit your 5* skill moves player so he has fancy pink boots and high socks, put matching color on your goalkeeper between gloves and boots, make your youth kids have the same boots brand of the team kit brand (they are teens, they don't have personal sponsors yet!) and details like those things...
.
Thank you
im on fifa 22 you gave me some great ideas man thank you
The passion, enthusiasm and engagement you put in is top tier. Love it!
tell this to mgh
Don’t care, already signed Messi, Mo salah, neymar Jr, Sliva and Mbappe to Man United
Says the guy who started the season with a 500 million budget. In case you dont' get it, I'm saying: You achieved nothing difficult.
@@SM-McKraken cry
Who asked??
Boring guy
respect it
I had a £300,000,000 release clause on one of my players and Bayern Munich paid it, just felt like sharing that hear
Barca really needs this right now
One of the best tips I've taken from you in my CM saves was to spread out my scouts for the Youth Academy. In my 15 year English save I slowly started pushing out into Europe with my scouts over several years, before putting a scout in Croatia and got two players with the last name Soldo and they were similar looking. Ended up becoming a solid pair in my 4-3-3 and became like joint legends.
Oh! That's pretty much like what I experience, too. I just made a comment here as well, with LOTS of duplicate last names in my club... I will probably (have to) scout neighbouring countries more... but at the same time I want to keep at least 50+ percent of my club having players from my club's home country, otherwise it's not really a "national club" anymore, but rather an "international squad", which doesn't feel as right...
Would have also be really nice if the 'edit a player' would allow us to edit the names. I don't know why EA still doesn't allow that in career mode.
Always put strict transfers on. You can also go through some of the teams before starting career mode and transfer their main stars to free agents, and then back again. For example, I didn’t do this first time, and Kane Wen to Bayern in the first window and so did a bunch of other players. This then stops them moving as the game thinks they are recent signings and they tend to stay at their clubs longer. Also try to sign players from the same country as your team as it creates amazing chemistry.
One thing that does suck is the manager tasks. It tells you to sign 3 under 20 players or a couple of crucial players etc. if you don’t do it you can get sacked. It penalises players for keeping it realistic
Two of my favourite rules you haven't mentioned are:
1. Don't use the youth academy at all, rather scout for low rated talents and try to loan them. Especially after your first season try to scout fresh talents(in your skill bracket)
2. Always sell players when you are getting offers from a financial better club, or immediately renew the contract with the player in question extensively increasing their pay (50%. Or more)
Great content, keep it up! :)
My tactic has always been to start with the lowest rated club in the country and build up the academy, and then during the first transfer window call up the academy ready prospects and either loan out or play them in positions where there's a veteran in an expiring contract. I also tend to look towards specific countries for scouting based on need (I go to Argentina for wingers, Netherlands for defender, etc.), but I like the thought about just leaving it to a more localized approach.
The one thing I hate about FIFA and the player development is how increasing certain stats also increases weak foot/skill moves. I kind of wish that was a separate option to train as it usually means you have many players in your squad with 5* SM/WF just because you wish to increase them in areas in which suits them. I'm aware this doesn't really affect defenders/midfielders as much as attackers but wanting to train a midfielder as a playmaker often leads to 5*WF. I just don't like how it kills the realism with it being so abundant within your squads.
Love all your vids mate, this one's class as usual.
Super super super.
I got excited (as usual) so I’m starting again with these rules 🙌🏼
BRO, i never seen a video from you befor, so this is my first, i abselutly love your kinda calm voice ind the way you can lean pepole arround the world to get more fun out of fifa, Good job mate!
Thanks and welcome! Hope you enjoy watching all the stuff i've already put out!
@@Geografifa i will do!
Started doing the away games with your suggestion and I see what you mean, quite enjoying it actually and getting a few odd results away from home as a result not running away with the league.
On transfers my house rule uses club star ratings (accessible through Import Team Sheet): any club rated a star or more than mine, I have to sell for a realistic offer. So if I'm a one star team, two star teams and above. Essentially what that means is once the club is 4.5 stars, I can tell everyone else to go pound sand if I want. I'll still sell off my backups though as it would be fair to them.
I do many of these tips now since starting FIFA 23. I've probably been focusing on scouting my own country's club too much... because now I have...
3 players with the last name Janssen
2 players with the last name Peters
2 players with the last name Garcia
2 players with the last name Kramer
And that with only having currently 24 players in my squad. Oh, and my Youth Academy also has ANOTHER Kramer, as well as 2 players with a duplicate name I already have too.
I wish they showed the FIRST NAME letter on the pitch layout and accompanying 'quick info card'... because their first names are typically different... now it's a bit hard to see which Janssen is which (aside from potentially having a different primary stat, or I have to memorize what the face looks like or their OVR is...) Would seem like a small but useful addition.
Oh well, I guess I have to go rotate scouting in neighbouring countries more and rotate that... but (also because of it being somewhat more realistic) I really like to have a good amount of my players originating from my club's home country, rather than becoming a 'mostly foreigners squad' if that makes sense. It doesn't really make it a 'national club' that way, does it? ;)
My issue is, I take over lower level teams and build them into powerhouses.
I love playing in the champions league.
But in building a team with the quality to make it, my squad usually gets to the point of being dominant and I get bored when I don’t lose any matches.
Rinse and repeat.
One thing that I do when using a team where the loan player is my key player. I'd just buy replacements for whoever was on loan. As well as making realistic sales. Like one I'm doing with Hamburg where Real Madrid for some reason wanted my 18 year old 66 rated RB. Obviously no one would want to deny that
One thing that’s been good in my west brom career mode is I used my budget as if it was at £0. This is because we have no money in real life & the 15m budget we have in the game is unrealistic. I had to sell 3 first team players to rebuild the team with up & coming unknown players from lesser leagues. Makes it much more challenging & fun
Im doing a dortmund reserve team and my end goal will be to beat the A team, also as its a reserve team i am only signing players under 23 as in real life younger players would play in the reserve team and they would eventually transfer to the main team. I think its a semi realistic save but it is very fun and difficult at the same time
My main rules for career mode are:
Follow the squad rules of the league you're in (e.g. Premiership: 25 players in squad - not including under 21s, and 7 homegrown players in that 25)
Don't sign players who will break your wage structure (no signings that are on more than your highest earner)
A wage cap of £100k/week until you're a champions league challenging team
No more than 3 first team signings per Summer, and no more than 2 total signings per Winter window
30+ year old players can only be offered 1 year extensions
You can only negotiate new contracts with players in the last 2 years of their contracts
If a player asks for a release clause you have to accept
If you put a player up for loan and receive Loan with Buy option, you have to accept
Don't sign players from competing teams domestically, or top clubs internationally (unless they are squad players/rejects in those teams.
Nice! I could see myself following these rules
I’m pretty bad at fifa and I play professional however I win most games however if I switch to world class I lose anyone know how I can find a middle ground so the matches are fairer
You might wanna find a slider guide. Any guides from Fifa 22 would work fine.
@@yomaso1134 thanks
Same 😢💀 a💀
You're not alone bruh I got to Division 1 online seasons by beating some insane players but I still struggle to beat world class sometimes just because of how impossible it is to win the ball back from them
Try Legendary
What sliders do you use in game? your gameplay looks so amazing and realistic
I also like turning off the transfer window until January so you have to play with either ur youth academy or main squad
Only thing about having realism is that it’s one sided. AI buys/sells players they normally wouldn’t in real life or players go to they wouldn’t
Mate, what camera settings are you using in this video? And are you using any sliders because the gameplay looks perfect!❤
The dynamic potential nerf has honestly ruined career mode for me so I’m going to try some of these tips out.
its a nerf? I thought its a bug…my striker had 23G/10A and went down in Potential.
Ye it ruined it for me too. I’m back to FIFA 22.
Yeah, it's a bug.
lol
as if having every player always get to their potential is any good
dynamic potential is a huge immersion giving thing
They promised Borjan will be better than Messi. Same scouts, same youth set up and all agreed he's gonna be a better baller. He played at Swansea just a few years ago.
I always try to apply the same sort of strategy to the club I’m managing as in real life.
Like you’ll not sign a 90 rated Super star from the free player market to your averaged midfield club from Germany.
Always try to sign players that standing fits the club your managing and when a bigger club wants to buy your star player, you have to sell him. That’s how the market work.
With that play style I am having a lot of fun playing long term careers.
Or signing Portuguese players for the mighty wolves 🖤🧡🐺
I am playing an ajax career mode in england but i send my scouts to the netherlands england and 1 to south america because Ajax is also very active in south america so thats why i do it. Its realistic
Transfer all teams into the premier league and then the bottom 3 leagues as well, and start as a team in the bottom tier, and work your way up in to the massive World League.
how do you even do that? sounds fun
I do some interesting things like for when I’m in England I don’t sign free agents or transfers that’s nations aren’t in the top 50 national teams to make it more realistic from a work permit perspective if I’m in Germany I also will scout United States since there’s a lot of Americans that are from Germany and the German leagues. I also don’t reject bids from top clubs and block offers from top clubs or from clubs in the league above for my best players. I also only upgrade a part of my starting 11 like in my one save I upgraded defense first then the midfield the following season and following that season I work on the forwards after that I only upgrade 1 position in the starting usually the weakest player. I also only call up 3-4 youth players per year after the first 2 season to keep it more realistic at first I bring up all my youth players because I do more youth academy and regen stuff
For the free transfer problem:
If you want to sign Lingard and he worths 10M, you can give him the salary that you sees fit, multiplies that for 52 (weeks in a year) and the rest you give him as a add-on
If you offers a 50k salary = 2.6M+7.4M in add-ons. (You could spread that in bonus also)
Either that or give him 75% of his market value as the contract signing fee
@@akin6754 yeah that could work as well
- try and sign players your club is linked to
- if you do a cm save with another club; check in on your favourite club, the AI sometimes keeps it realistic e.g. Leeds signed JWP and Solanke
Becomes void once the years start to progress really
Start as Wrexham. Because even free agents won’t sign for the club because their to low level it helps with making realistic
Great video
I always fall into the youth player hole. Recruit and train up and build a load of great players including free players then get gutted when I realise they are gone next save.
I had amazing time playing FIFAs 21 and 22, but I lost interest because I got constantly fired for the stupid objectives
this video is brilliant as a sunderland fan and someone who is doing a career mode with them lmao
I make youth academy career mode TH-cam videos and there pretty fun to make so I'd suggest just do a long time youth academy career mode.
I limit myself to 1 youth scout and only allowed to scout for 3 months a season to make it more challenging
I have 22 players in my team but i make sure that some can play more than one position so i always have back ups.
my rules: always strick transfers, only buy top players if their club bought a top player for the same position, if its a southamerican player and i get either a realmadrid or barça offer always accept (i even search to see who their idol is irl) as most of them dream on playing there.
It's worth to say that having a career of club in LaLiga have many options to keep it realistic
1. Max 25 players in the first team.
2. Buyout clause is required on every player.
3. Maximum of 5 non EU players (players who have eu passports, but thier nationality is not on the EU doesnt count to that five)
4. Maximum of 3 non EU players in the starting lineup for league or cup game.
5. Can't ''register'' youngster into first team (in career that just means giving him number from 1 to 25) till the transfer window is open.
6. Won't talk about the salary cap cuz that would just kill the career tbf, thats most bullshit thing in Spain right now.
Also worth to mention is Athletic Bilbao, thier transfer politic is very strict. They sign only players from Basque region which is in Spain and France (Maybe Andorra tho, but im not sure about that)
yeah spot on about everything here! the basque policy is worldwide, so players with a basque parent (or players who move to the basque region as an under 16) can be born anywhere and play for the club!
there is literally a black dude playng for Bilbao im going to assume he is a pure blooded Baskue, lmao.
@@gurdjieff9282 two actually - Williams brothers - Nico and Inaki, they were born in Bilbao.
Ah yes that reminds me of the time I sold de la Cruz from River Plate to Liverpool for 101 Million, despite him being my most fun player by far because of realism. Anyway with the money I than bought Messi and Haaland to win the Libertadores. So much for the realism lol
But jokes aside, normally I follow similar rules in my careers and the most important rule is to never buy a super talent from those internet sites!
I’m doing cadiz rn and trying it so at least 50% of my signings are Spanish, and then there’s the other la liga teams singing English prem players lol that would never happen, wish they would make other teams sign realistically
De bruyne is on my free agents list on my Fulham career mode at the start of season one half the Man City squad was on there
Are they super old
guys if you want it to be more realistic, every loan and transfer for example: man united sell ronaldo to al nassr change the al nassr team sheet
The career mode objectives ruin long saves.
Can you do a video for player career
Hey bro. What's that angle you're using? (Camera Angle)
Say if I was using Derby in league 1 and was going to get promoted but someone that was in the championship like Rotherham that was in the relegation came in for one of my players would it be realistic to accept it?
No cause more player would want to play in higher league except if they are a fan of that club or they going to have a huge wage compare to yours
On a RTG I don’t sign players that are too good for the level I’m at.
My tips are every season I’m allowed a Maximum of 3 signings including free agents and free transfers, so If I get 3 free agents for example I can no longer sign anyone and keep the money, 3 players sold so I cant get a new squad every season and two youth academy players promoted per season. Also I try to sign players from same nationality as the club or neighbor nations.
Go into edit rosters. Put all the good players on your Fleetwood town team. Conquer the world.
so unrealistic and boring
About selling players to a better club i was rebuilding petersborouh (english league one) and i got a offer from Leicester City... Well the story doesnt end well
I have just started a career with PSV Eindhoven and want to make them Champions League winners, but how do I take them to that level while keeping it realistic and not buying world class players?
It takes time to slowly build and improve the squad.
Sign young players with low initial overalls but with good potential, maybe get some youth academy graduates in there as well
I grabbed 39 yr old Modrić with 80 overall with Blackburn 😂 #COYB
Just added my player to afc Richmond and a whole bunch of unhappy players to Wrexham including Messi and Neymar and Ronaldo lol added mayppe to Real Madrid as well
How do you get so many cinematic, is it only for pc or ps5?
do you have any tips to keep higher teat teams saves longer and more fun?
I had a ton of fun in a Lazio career. I tried to build an all bald/shaved head squad. This was limiting, but I could still build a competitive team. By choosing YA bald players, I often had to disregard potential.
Sell your best players to thes likes of real Madrid or Barca or sell them to the best teams in their home country like man city did with sane
FIFA CAREER MODE YOUTH ACADEMY SCOUTING TIP:
Wingers: Asia
Physically strong: Africa
Defensive minded, Playmaker, goalkeeper: Central Europe
Attacker, Technically gifted: South America
TRY THIS FOR MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY IN YOUTH SCOUTING.
Another thing - let some players contracts expire so you dont earn money for everyone , for example dont renew the contract of a 36 year old just tom sell him for 800,000. This will keep some realism in your save
Isn’t that the job of the developers? I’m more of a football manager player and recently started playing fifa, although football manager has its problems there are things it does very well. For example if you sign a 36 year old and give him too much money no one will buy that player off you because of the contract. The player might not even want to renew his contract for whatever reason so you have no choice.
Do you use your home ground talent?
Problem is the ai don’t try. Real Madrid signing TAA etc.
Can you do a similar video but with Player Career mode?
sure, i dont really play player career but i can put something together
Grimsby Town are the best team in the world. They broke records in the FA Cup this season. McAtee deserves to be 88 rated
I started the on the english 3rd division with a big bonus of 10 million pounds and i won every single game lol
I have 95 pace but I am still slow. It feals like i have 70 pace in the game. Do anyone know how I can fix this.
Acceleration
I signed Kane to Man U
Do a rebuild career mode
what is that camera
nah i just started a grimsby career mode what are the odds.
I was able to sign Ronaldo to Crawley Town, made game too easy
Make a new club with 0.5 stars in the efl league 2. Try to get in efl league 1 then efl champs so on.
You can't sign any player from an another club. If you want to sign a GK form Chelsea who is french you cant do it because you did not choose france.thats right you have to select a country to sign players from another clubs. (You can still choose a player from not the country you choosed from if its a free agent). Second you simulate all the matches 'cause you can beat Liverpool with a 0.5 star team easily if you dont simulate.
Nah, I already signed Lord Schröck, Donovan, Busquet and raise Son's ovr higher than Messi and Ronaldo in FIFA 14.
licked to make it 1k
2:47 Netherlands, not Holland
I don’t know what clubs to use
Can you share Ur sliders?
Young me: stfu ima sign Messi and Ronaldo
Have all your players on a release clause
thats a fun idea, especially if you play in Spain!
Do you have to do training? I find it boring
Come on... you do each drils once or twice with top players from your 1st squad, to get an A. Then you sim that drill from there out.
If you're skipping training completely, then yeah, you're hurting your squad's progress. It's not that hard, and once you get a drill to A rating, you sim it from there on. It's also a solid way to keep less played players in form/fitness.
@@SM-McKrakenso I have to finish it once with an A and then every time I sim it in the future will they get A’s?
Dyamic potential nerved?yeah no o just tested it out bought full squad of 70potential players i turned them into 88-93 rating in season 2 lol
I spent $750 million in one transfer window
Sevilla has Sane and harry kane 😂
There is no way to play this game realistic. I can sign a 80 rated player on a free transfer even when my team is like in the 4th division.
Best i can suggest, only sign players from youth academy from the same country of the league. No other transfers or loans
How do you work out your club rating once you've started it?
You can go to team sheets, import team and it’ll show you teams ratings
@@n0body550 Thank you!
never restart the game. if your sunderland playing against city your 3 4 nil down, dont restart the game and win. keep it real
Stop it a new career mode turns me on
Unfortunately on fifa 23 prospects have to play, otherwise they loose potential
Seems realistic to me.
If you loan them out their potential stays the same or increases, it doesn't go down because you don't decide the amount of game time they get
How to keep career mode realistic give your self 100 million and buy kylian Mbappe
Actually you signing too many players in your Nottingham Forest career mode is exactly what happened in real life, so you could say it was realistic.
nottingham forest ❤️🤍
The game is so bad we have to do this
You can buy fm23 to
I'm doing a FM23 series and I'm enjoying it I started with Oxford got sacked went to crewe got sacked now I'm at Leyton orient in league 2 I signed Phil jagielka, ben tozer, phil Bardsley, Alan mannus, solomon kalou. jagielka is my assistant manager and player I signed kalou from Djibouti on a free I had to appeal his work permit and it got agreed on 6 month contract
play football manager if u want realism
too late already signed Mbappé for $50
Career mode isn’t realistic whatsoever Man U is 15th on 10 points with 10 games played and two points of the relegation zone and getafe is third on 28 points and Leeds are in 5th
people who do unrealistic career modes are boring (i gave wrexham 1bn dollars and won the ucl)
The gameplay is abysmal though
