- Realism is hard to achieve in Career Mode. You’ll see Atletic Bilbao ditch their Basque policy on day one because they want to sign Kalvin Phillips. You’ll see Real Madrid play Joselu over Mbappe and Haaland, and you might even see Onana make a save. Today I'm sharing some tips I've found that can actually make your experience a lot more realistic, from transfers to squad planning, and hopefully they’ll also make the game a lot more fun too.

Adjusting the injury slider helps make the game more realistic. Sometimes i have to play reserves players or even youth players for a few weeks to cover injuries. EA need to introduce a slider for transfers as well. To many teams spending unrealistic amount of money on players they don't need.
they should also implement a loyalty attribute or smth similar to nba2k with the player tendencies, im sick of seeing TAA join man city or valverde join barca, just makes no sense
Same here, put frequency at 70 and severity at 60, used to have it at 75/65 but was tough.
@@rivaegal exactly, i always wondering how can i sell and buy player easily whenever i have money :)
@@rivaegal yeah anyone who came through the academy or have spent 4-5+ years at the club should be harder to sign
W suggestion
All of this tips are great for the user to consider, but this game mode will forever be broken with the unrealistic transfers, star players on the AI team not being played, AI teams having 7 first team strikers. It’s such a shame we’ll never get it with EA sports making this game
I miss efootball 😢
honestly unless you LOVE controlling the players (another thing ea has broken for fut) just play Football Manager it's SO much better at everything you stated and more
Andre Onana making a save 🤣
that was so outta pocket like damn bro u just playing fifa 😂😂
Yep😂

That’s super unrealistic

I have a small tip to make transfers more realistic in lower leagues.
If you find a wonderkid who fits the standard of your team, but they're playing for a big club (e.g united or liverpool have some good talents) loan them in, in real life, these clubs would not let you buy them.
You say big club and say united.. Funny 😁😜
A things PES did absolutely fine was the "Transfer frequency" option before starting a Master League. Setting it on "High" was similar to FIFA CM (a bit less chaotic); "Normal" was very balanced and signings were made to cover squad depth or players with very low overall; "Low" the AI would only sign players if its absolutely necessary, for example, if I get their starting RB, the AI will sign another RB to replace it - transfer were kept at a minimun and from season to season, you actually get to see original players in the teams line-up instead of seeing Harry Maguire captaning Bilbao.
How I do it:
* I take a second or third tier team. Or smaller league with small team.
* I adjust the sliders but play on World Class, I can easily win on World Class without adjusting them but I'm losing on legendary. So adjusting them so when you play it's more like 1-0... Sometimes you lose in big games also.
* I don't make signings in the first summer transfer window
* After the 1st season I try to make free signings.
* I try to implement players from the youth squad
* I like to buy young players from mid teams from the same country/league that can become key players (I always try to buy players from the same nationality as my team is)
* I don't put players on the transfer market but eventually wait for bids to come in and then sell them.
* Set transfer policy to strict
* No financial takeover
* Set transfer window off for the first season.
(for console players)
1 thing I personally go the extra mile to do once I've reached a point in the save where I've accumulated ridiculous amounts of cash is: Buying top players at some of the smaller clubs who've essentially outgrown their club and than immediately swapping them for a faceless or low rated player at a bigger team(that I release immediately) which would be interested in that player IRL if they were perfmorning to that level. What it also allows me to do is fill in any gaps at the big teams considering how poor transfers still are this year and keep European competitions, leagues and even squads if I were to move job interesting. I do this with clubs in the lower leagues sometime and try and create my own fairytale story lol (it does actually work on occasion)
I'm in season 6 of a Palace save currently and just qualified for European football for the first time. In doing that I realized that Bayern Munich were nowhere to be seen and hadnt even qualified for the Conference league so in the next summer window I analyzed their squad myself and saw that they had a 93 rated Musiala, 89 rated Kimmich and an 89 rated German regen in midfield however they had 2 goalkeepers who didn't even have a picture in game and they were both loan listed... Kobel was 90 rated by that time and still at Dortmund so I purchased him myself and swapped him for a 73 rated center back at Bayern which I than swapped again for a League 1 player before releasing him. I also try and "fix" big teams in my own league who are underperforming.
My other suggestion would be that say you're managing an English side and find a really good youth player out of Spain, Germany, Italy, Portugal etc. due to just how many youth player I accumulate over the seasons and my squad size, I try to sell some of them on to the big clubs in their home nation. I also scout "lesser" nations more to try and make the world cup and international competitions more challenging and feel less "foreign" to me by the end of the career mode. In my Palace career for example I ended up turning a player from the J league called "Ko jae Hyeon" into the next Son and one of the best players in the league. I than purchased a center back from the J league a few seasons after and scouted the nation for 2/3 gems. I'm now waiting to manage them in a world cup and see how far I can take them, hope this helps anyone trying to find new methods to really take their career modes to the next level.
Some great tips here, especially the 'Delegate' one for realism. One thing I always do now around transfers is to forbid myself from ever 'Transfer Listing' players - it's unrealistic and too easy an exploit to get rid of unwanted players and for good money too. You can list, say, some useless £5m valued player and by doing so you'll very quickly get offers of that value to easily cash in on. This is far too easy especially when you have far too much money to spend anyway especially as big clubs. By restricting your ability to exploit this, you make your transfer budgets that little bit more challenging plus in turn means you have to wait for offers for players and even sometimes consider bids that may come in for more 'valuable' players you don't necessarily want to discard, if you're looking for funds to perhaps re-invest elsewhere.
Oh I like this! I’ve just started a save with Melbourne Victory following the A-League salary cap and squad make-up rules, they had Nani and I wanted to offload him as he doesn’t play there anymore…nobody bought him so I just released him and paid the fee as that’s pretty much what happened irl
As it’s too easy to get huge transfer budgets without much effort, I usually sell below value and buy above value to limit myself somewhat. IRL clubs receive transfer sums divided by the nr of years of the players’ contract so it’s very unrealistic to be able to spend the full sum in one window. Also, usually only a share of the transfer sum goes to new transfers. The rest goes to costs and upgrades for the club. This limits your progress a bit which keeps the career mode fun for longer I find. A side benefit is that your oponents receive a bigger budget and can attract better competition for you to play against.
Yeah I do that sometimes I had a Dortmund carrer where the goal was to develop talents and sell them for a lot of money. But after a while, I easily built up like 300-400 million and started limiting myself
I've just made a comment about stopping yourself Transfer Listing your players for this reason. The game gives you far too much money as it is without being able to trim & offload players easily for decent money using that feature. You can sell £10m valued players for... yep, £10m if you list them, pretty quickly too cos there's always offers, which makes it too easy. Take that option away and not only do you then have unwanted players sat there until a) a bid comes in by chance or b) you just let their contract run out for free, but you then perhaps have to consider bids for your better players a bit more if you're looking to reinvest.
@@davidwalker5489 yea I thought strict negotiations would help reduce fees somewhat, but it only prevents you from signing about 40% of players in the game. IRL players from Dortmund go to Bayern, Figo went from Barca to Madrid, players from Serie A move between the big 4 all the time.. so it just makes it even more unrealistic..
Also as a optional choice if you're managing a club thats part of a group like Watford and Udinese, Man City, Mumbai City New York City and Melbourne City or Aston Villa and Victoria Club (could also create a club Vissel Kobe and ZED FC somewhere like Kobe in South Korea or China with ZED FC in Saudi Arabia) when you're the lesser team you do deals with connection to that like loans or even transfers but mainly loans from those clubs as part of it whilst as the main club you take their best talent. There's some other cases you could do like Walsall and Villa given they're quite close together despite not being in a group something like that could add to the realism of the transfers if you want to get really in depth with it.
the thing i always do is shop at teams that got relegated/failed to qualify to europe. the thing is though while i would avoid signing players from big teams, but I came across Fulham who had 7 85+ players in their first team, got relegated, but then wanted 60m for each of them? When in reality they'd have to sell out for 50% or less of their value because the players would want out.
Ive also recently started using the overall cap but with potential overall. I.e. cant sign players more than 2 potential overall better than my current highest potential overall. And perhaps if you do make a signing with a better potential overall, maybe only 1, 2 max, per season dependent on outgoings. Also, if im searching for players in game, i like to search for players with 0-2 (3 at the most) years on their contract as this is when teams sign people in real life. Even looking at transfer listed/loan listed ones in the first instance. Also, just looking at more experienced players rather than always going for players u23
A suggestion I have is simming 70% of your matches. I play on World Class, and every time I play, Its always a high scoring game. For example 5-3 6-2 4-2 3-3 etc. Simulating keeps it much more realistic, especially if you play on an easier mode. I've had career modes where i get promoted in the first season then get European football the next, or one where I played w/ west ham in fifa 23 and got them to win the historic treble in the third season, and same thing with spurs in eafc but in 2. Long story short just sim your games to keep it realistic. Even if you get bad results, it will put you in a believable position. I'm doing one with Club Brugge rn, but in Serie BKT. Simming my games made it way more enjoyable, and when I got promoted I only finished 15, whereas if i played most my matches I would have probably got European Football. Every time I play Im always top goalscoring team in the league, once I finished at 101 Goals for and 60ish goals against 😂 even when I'm relegation scrap.
Or shorten the minutes played. I play on five minutes per half and the scores are pretty realistic
@@leon-didi0759 i do that ive tried 4 same thing. Anything under 4 is boring
I find it hard to just sim because playing with the players is so fun imo
@@cooperpaddison5657 also stressful asf tho
I play 6mins on legendary with sliders to keep things slower paced and more realistic. Harder to score and scores are usually at max 2-2 if it gets past that, it's rare. I also set sliders so injuries happen more, but they'll be more likely those short term ankle injuries
I try keep it as realistic as possible. so if im a small club i wont sign well known players. And i sell my higest overall player the first couple seasons and re invest. Its what would happen in real life if you are a league 1 or championship side the big dogs will try and raid your talent lol. Ill usually sell 1 big player and replace him with no more than 3. Its cool seeing players you built up at other clubs or playing against you. I limit how many players i bring in and usually dont spend all the transfer budget. I use alot of it to re sign my players for another year. I dont really play as big clubs it gets boring fast so at most ill pick a weak championship side and sim about half the season to keep me from winning 10 or 15 games in a row so ill play one sim one kind of thing. Ideally ill start at league two and work my way up with these rules applied along with a few othere and it keeps it challenging.
I’ve made the habit of signing some older, more experienced players here and there in career mode. I always used to be ‘eh, he’ll go down in his overall so quickly’, but if a player is actually interesting for your club, he could have one or two good seasons. My most recent FIFA is 20 and I started an Aston Villa career mode and signed Milner for his experience and versatility. Now I’m in the second season. He’ll retire at the end of the season and has dropped two ratings already but he has been of good value.
I made myself a rule that I must have a certain revenue with the club every season, forcing me to sell players (I sold Grealish in the first January transfer window) and/or look for cheaper (and often older) alternatives. I also take a look at what the squad might realistically need. I have a decent attack, but I could use a backup striker with more experience, as the team qualified for Europa and my oldest attacker was 25. I bought Deeney, with the leadership trait (like Milner) and the team player trait. He can be the backup before some younger players will outgrow him. I will loosen the revenue rule once the team regularly qualifies and performs in Europe and abolish it once I get like three UCL round of 16 or quarter finals in a row.
I also used to send my youth scouts… wherever. In this career mode, I make sure to have one scout in the UK at all times.
Since I play a rather outdated FIFA now, I also tend to buy some players a team has bought irl. I bought Openda when I did a Vitesse career mode. I have bought Emiliano Martinez now with Villa (though his rating is way lower there, he’ll be good backup).
I also tend to loan in a player here or there when I’m a smaller club. In a Vitesse career mode, I completed my midfield for the first season with an Ajax loanee.
Anyone but Deeney lol
I also love to sign old players😂
If i do small leagues, i try not to go over double of the leagues transfer record. For example, in turkey, its like 20 million, so i dont spend more than 40
Turkey is not a small league tho 😂

I always reject Athletic Bilbao if they try to come in for a player on my squad.

You might even see Onana making a realistic career mode save.

How can you create a more realistic career mode? Simply avoid signing Mexican players on a free transfer for your squad in the first season
Also allways put first transfer window off. And Athletic Bilbao it's okay to not buy a Bask player sometimes. A player from France can be Basque also. (Basque also)
And outside that I meant you can still buy a Player from (Northern) Spain imho. Especially if you can make it to champions league. Or search aome players from other countries with Basque origin.
I always try to stick to realism but it’s frustrating how EA won’t fix unrealistic transfers from other clubs. More than once it has ruined the experience
Try and manual transfer in and out players from their clubs, the ai will see them as recently transferred in so won't move them for a few seasons.
@@WinnieMukamwezi since my comment I think I've played a total of 3 hours of career mode and 300 hours of Football Manager. Much more immersive and realistic. EA ruined career mode for me. But good tip mate
I kid you not I was doing a Burnley save and Athletic Bilbao OFFERED FOR MAGUIRE
I won’t buy any starting players for a year and a half and limit myself to 3 players per window which seems to work
I actually made it policy that my young players who get contacted by biggee clubs always have to have a deal accepted
I always quit my careers when they start getting too unrealistic
Me too, i am doing a career mode with hamburg and im in the 2nd season in bundesliga, i just bought klostermann for 20 mln but I think its unrealistic

I send hojlund tô Leverkusen and take shick tô United.(they always buy Striker in my MC, but now they dont, and they use garnacho. In my others MC they always send garnacho tô another teams..)martinelli, grealish, Arnold, julian Alvarez. CPU always send then😢 but now Alvarez stay in west ham, Ferguson too! Martinelli in Barça o think is real.. arsenal replaced with Pedro Gonçalves(real face!).. my First 6 monte windows os closed help a lot too.. I play with Leeds but in Premier. No one play have 80 ovr. The best is James with 77... Make that. Make transfers in your game and close windows... Ps . I send nico Williams tô city, make gvardiol and ake left wing. Now CPU don t buy left wing e RB. Because Yan couto now is RB and I send baku tô city😅
I would say the biggest tip from my end is do not restart matches. Even if you are losing, take the loss and move on. And do not quick sim games. Use just sim and jump in if things are going super south.
Who made that thumbnail 💀😭
Tip: Stop buying only u-20 players.
I love signing old veterans and unknown kids and progressing through the leagues
In PES everything is except Frenkie De Jong moves to Atletico in every single save
Lol I know I’m not the only one who struggles with accepting a L which leads to promotion too quickly, but I want my young squad to perform the best they can so that they can grow faster!
Yeah, when i first got the game when i losed i would restart the match but that isnt fun so I started playing normally and its way more fun!
Are you interested in uploading the Preußen Münster Caarer Mode if only to get this wonderful club more familiar to many people
Kent as in the county that’s in the M25 doesn’t is in the middle of nowhere…
My sort of realism im doing on Yeovil town on fifa 19 loan 1 or 2 players like Brandon Williams, an Irish regen striker ect spend on players at your level or push your luck and sign a premier league player who's old to league 1 like what I did with ben foster 37 year old foster I signed for £1.5M
Ben Foster started all 38 games for premier league Watford in 2018/19..... how is he realistic?
@@cdrxgon24 I signed him in around 2021 when he was 37 he was only 73 rated and was dropped as they signed Jack butland to be there number 1 foster was dropped down so I got him in for 3 seasons played until he was 39 and got us to the championship playoffs. begovic came in as a short term stop gap. I'm now in 2031 we won the 2030 PL title Harry Kane, Andy kings final season we needed a result against west brom and Liverpool had to win against Everton we tied at the Hawthorns Liverpool got beat 2-0 at anfield
I'm in the champions league quarter finals against Juventus
fair enough@@declangaming24
Put release clauses in renew contracts. Dont sign ever ,94 potential youth players just let the dynamic potential use swap players with teams that are weak. Turn off first transfer window put time to 10 min slow speed if u have good season with low team sell a player st end
onana saving the pen!!!!!
Look at the transfer strategy of your team and replicate it
Hello and welcome to my new comment
i did a Borussia Dortmund ii career mode in three liga
Keep this realistic by starting off lower league
i did a Lincoln city career mode before
And a Villarreal b career mode for example

@@BALHAM69 It's more the fact that they can't go above a certain level in German in the 3rd league it's the 2nd Division in Spain but if their parent club gets relegated so do they same thing in Germany. It's probably like this in Spain also but in Germany the players have to stand down for 4 games in order to move between levels unless they're under 23 were the rules are relaxed.

I wonder why you don't play football manager
Has anyone seen this new thing where the ai controls your players direction & does something different to what you command your player to do ? for example if you press through ball , the system will do a lobbed through pass instead just so the ai can get the ball. This game is starting to become unplayable.
I have definitely noticed this. The scripting isn't even subtle any longer, it's blatant and the game has become more irritating than ever. It has a tendency to rig referee calls against you as well. What should be a no card foul is a straight red, while the AI basically plows you over and doesn't even attempt to get the ball and they get no call.
it actually help the flow of the game, if you forget to double tap, you'd still have a chance to pass the ball to the next player because of the auto lob
Bilbao is already in FIFA world by playing the Williams brothers, what's the fuss about using english players?
Delegating loans has been broken for years. Always you end up paying 100% wages.
Delegate until they come back with an agreement. But don’t accept it there. Go in and negotiate the deal with the same terms and negotiate the wage split and that should correctly split the wages.
Don't do that to Andre bro😔
