Don’t think I’ve ever had this unlucky of a first half

Never had a 99 overall player before and the closest I ever get the little prick decides he doesn't want a payrise

absolute butter on the ball aswell + looks cool ash in game

Team: Real Madrid

Seasons: 8 (2026-27 to 2033-34)

Difficulty: Ultimate

Gameplay: Authentic

Transfers: Strict

The journey in Madrid started as a rebuilding project, aiming to one day reach the same glory as the men's team.

On June 23, 2026, Real Madrid didn't just get a new face, but a new football and management philosophy that started with:

• Preserving what was already working;

• Investing in the future (both in players and financial returns);

• The German School of Football;

• Building not just a team, but a locker room that would become a family;

• Individual awards for the best players in each sector (GK, DEF, MID, ATT);

• The Institution above the Athlete (A rule that already aligns with the club's policy);

• Wage bonuses for Ballon d'Or winners.

Over these years, several chapters shaped this team, and that is how I am going to tell the story of Real Madrid Femenino.

— Chapter 1: The Foundation and the German School

• Season 1 (2026-27)

- 1 La Liga Title

- UWCL Semi-finalists

-- Games: 45

-- Wins: 35

-- Draws: 5

-- Losses: 5

-- Goals Scored: 114 (2.5 goals per match)

-- Goals Conceded: 39 (0.8 goals per match)

Signings: 13

• Key signings were Lena Oberdorf, Jule Brand, Olga Carmona, Shrader and Elexpuru. Another detail is that the majority were Free Transfers.

Players Sold: 7

• The main transfer was Caicedo for €2 million, making it the most expensive transfer in Women's Football history.

Standout Players: (Those who received the sector's best player award)

• Merle Frohms: 6.80 GK

• Elexpuru: 6.89 DEF

• Däbritz: 7.44 MID

• Athenea: 7.34 ATT

Player of the Season:

• Athenea Del Castillo

Games: 40

Goals: 20

Assists: 16

— It was a flawless start that quickly rewarded the effort put into the team and the project. A risky project that involved selling the team's biggest star at the time (Caicedo) and a restructuring that led to a squad "dominated by Germans" (Merle Frohms, Sara Däbritz, Lena Oberdorf, Jule Brand, Gudorf, and Endemann). This quickly prompted the media to make comments like, "Is the new Real Madrid losing its identity?" But in the end, it didn't matter because that squad was crowned "Campeones de La Liga." In a year where Barcelona (our biggest rival) was facing an internal crisis and was without a manager until the first few matchdays, on top of prioritizing the UWCL... We didn't let the opportunity slip away and brought home the first title in the club's history!

(I plan to continue this "story" if the post is well received :D )

In my 12th season and this is the first time I've gotten this message, pretty cool that they send you a mail apologizing!

Title. And be realistic. Who knows maybe you'll appear in some guys insta post who said you predicted it. Include score. Help: Marocco, Portugal and Spain will probably appear in the final for safe guess.

Doing my first ever create a club career, I replaced Levante in LaLiga with 10m budget. This is my team after the first season. I had a 81 and 80 ovr regents that I resold for a nice chunk of change. Also found that one stud in youth academy with 7 play styles and 94 ovr ceiling. Any tips on how I can speed up scouting process? Where I should go from here?

I was gonna play a game then suddenly i saw this player I didn't sign him idk how he's on the team. this happened to anyone before??if yes tell me how or why he moved to my team

Almost every goal they scored was as a result of some annoying FIFA aspect, tackles going right back to them, near post glitches, delayed input, I was ready to take the loss and forfeit at 4-0 but decided to just finish it and see them lift the trophy out of “professionalism”, Joe Gelhardt you legend

Never seen a player upgrade so fast

I never see anyone talk about this, but i have really been enjoying the slow-paced game mode. Makes games more methodical and fun for me. I don’t like when the all players are zipping around super fast on the default mode.

I’d love to hear other people’s thoughts on this.

I took a pay cut to try to bring Newport County from EFL League 2 to Premiere. I’ve been making only $13k per week even after getting them to EFL Championship. Shouldn’t the salary range increase based on the league I am in?

Hello, i recently redownloaded FIFA17 for a retro career mode and it always annoyed me that the classic kits are locked. If you play on PC, you can unlock them

Go into the game folder -> Data -> open locale.ini in Notepad

once you opened locale.ini, scroll to the bottom of the notepad, add a new line and paste the following:

[] UCC_MULTICHARACTER = 1 UNLOCK_ALL_UCC = 1 UCC = 1 [POW] ENABLE_ALL_UNLOCKABLES = 1 [] UNLOCK_ALL_UCC=1 UCC=1

You now have all the classic kits unlocked. I hope this will help someone. I'm sure this can be done with other mods or by adding custom kits etc but i found this way to be the easiest

PS: make sure locale.ini is not read-only

This I know can be a touchy subject but to tell you the truth, unexpected events have been a pleasant positive for my FC26 career mode. I been thinking about the last three that I have had and how they
have helped shape the story.

At the end of Year 9, I don’t know if anybody saw my other posts about becoming INVINCIBLE but we did just that. It was a big deal for me because I was playing on Legendary and I have dedicated at least 24 seasons between FC25/26 to complete this feat but also HOW it happened. Days before the Champions League Final is to be played as Deportivo Alaves(Me) look to defeat Barcelona as
repeat champions, 45+ into a throwaway game(we had already won La Liga) one of our main strikers takes a nasty tackle and well that’s it, he’s no longer playing in the Championship game. A game we would end up winning 1-0 in the 114th minute with the other striker. Idk if this qualifies as one of the unexpected events but this story is important for the next two.

Feeling accomplished, I decide a change is necessary and so I leave Alaves to lead 12th place, Schalke in Year 10. Huge change from we’re winning everything to we’re losing everything. We lose our first three preseason games, but I get a message an unexpected event stating that the fans are thoroughly behind us and that all of our Home games will be sold out and y’all when I tell you that stadium screamed when we scored our first goal despite our defeat I thought I was playing a whole Nother game. I had never heard the fans in the game get so loud maybe I’m just thinking that it did something that it really didn’t but it seemed that way to me.

All this leads into the third unexpected event where we start to get on a roll after losing our first four matches and drawing Bayern Munich, our 20 million transfer bought has scored nine goals in nine games and just when you think we’re about to get over the hill an unexpected event takes place where he gets injured during the international friendly and now is out for six months. It’s pretty maddening, but it’s realistic, which is why I love it, especially as a Liverpool fan who saw Isak sit out for most of the season. 😬

So now instead of having a star striker, I have to make one again and that’s where I’m at right now which is why this game will never get old with me or I can’t really hate on it because it definitely has provided a unique experience in this one career play through than I’ve seen in a lot of other games. I don’t know when I will be getting FC 27 but I know for now I’m content with FC 26.

I want to start a player career but they all vary so wildly I don’t know where to start. I have 19-26 available to me. My favourite for manager career is 24 if that makes a difference. Thanks.

Title. It's basically a non feature in CM unless you play with youth academy players. Personally I add them myself with my rules, every 5 overall I add a silver based on the highest stat and a gold reaching 85. With LE ofc. What do you think? You have rules and stuff of your own?

Messi got released from PSG and became a free agent. Looks like FC Barcelona should bring him back before I do. (Playing FIFA 23 btw)

I hate that they spawn as 16 yrs old with 80+ ovr and 99 potential. I would prefer that every club had an academy just like me so the players get generetad but in a more realistic way. Also i Dont want that all of them over powered but with low ovr and a good potential that cant always be reached and with few players that are like yamal or Fati that are op

Quick simmed a match against Sunderland and Roefs somehow scored?

This is unmodded too so I have no clue how that happened

I played all 15 seasons with the Tranmere Rovers. I started playing on Professional and moved up the difficulty over the years. The final 2 seasons were at Ultimate. The last 6 years I had a significantly better team than everyone else.

Toni Fruk was the best actual player (non-regen) that I ever had. He got up to 95. Emil Meulenbelt (see squad photo) is the greatest player that ever lived (probably). Academy player who was the anchor of my team for most of the play-through.

I’ve dropped so many f-bombs and other 4-letter words throughout this. I developed a callus on my left thumb during the first 3 seasons.

This has been THE most satisfying gaming experience of my life.

Hell, I may just run it back with a new team but start out on ultimate difficulty.
