Hint: ----- Submitted by: lcarter * Diego Buonanotte (needs time but gets very good) * Rodrigo Fabri (old ish but gets lots of goles) * Rui Fonte (young but good) Changing Formation: ------------------- This works really well on the game day. If you go into the game with a formation and you set your team talk, if you then change your formation before you kick-off then it confuses the opposition and you automatically get the upper hand on them.

Make sure you make a back-up of it somewhere just incase though. Now when you start a new game you will have real players and real club names. Easy goals from corners: ------------------------ This cheat is really simple! All you have to do is have some1 with the highest corner attribute take the corners. then you on team instruction put the corners in the 6 yard box on both right and left. then take to players with the best headers in your team then go on player instruction of the 2 players then for corners put challenge GK.

Keeping Possession: ------------------- To play possession football, often hard from a players perspective, it is a simple matter of tweaking your tactics. Play a short passing game with a slower tempo and watch as your players consistently hit the target with their passes. To add variety you can change the mentality from defensive to attacking. Defensive possession football will see your defenders playing with the ball alot and making occasional forays forward into space. Attacking possession football is much like Arsenals style of football with a consistent flow forward. As your team gets more accustomed to possession football you can increase the tempo and watch as your team swiftly and accurately carve up the opposition. Avoiding Work Permit Troubles: ------------------------------ There are three ways to get around the annoying inconveniences that are Work Permits. They are: 1.Your club can have a feeder club from a European country that doesn't use the work permit rule, you can send the player out on loan to the club and they will gain citizenship after a certain amount of years. The shortest time to gain citizenship in a country is 3 years, in Belgium and Poland. Pretty much all the other countries take 5 years, except for Spain, which takes 4 years. 2.You can leave the player in your reserves until he gains citizenship (which will take 5 years). 3.A sneaky way of getting past the work permit problem is to offer the player another contract, as soon as they join you. About 60% of the time the player will be granted a work permit, even though they had only just been denied one. Sly, huh? Failing all that. Try and find foreign players who have a European nation as a second nationality. these players do not require work permits! Finding Great Regens: --------------------- To maintain a high standard of quality players in your team as the years progress during the game it is necessary to scout and develop your own youth talent into the next generation of superstars. To find regens (game spawned players to replace retired players) you must learn to scout effective and efficiently. First you must sign to your club some scouts with at least a 17 rating in Judging Potential Ability and Judging Current Ability. Examples of such scouts are Wolfgang Dremmler and David Hamilton. Once you have some good scouts go to the scout screen and assign your scouts to the various youth competitions (eg Under 20 World Cup and Under 18's Leagues) with maximum age set to under 20. Now wait and watch as your scouts scour the globe for the best new talent. Once they bring back some player reports choose what players you think youll need or want in the future and snap them up while they are young. LLM Money Making: ----------------- In the Pre Season as smaller teams of any division you will always find you need to make some money to set yourself up for playing wages/making transfers/expanding stadium etc. The best way to get money in these situations is to organise high profile friendlies in the pres season. By organising friendly leagues/cups/one off matches you can make anywhere from 100k to 10mil pounds each pre season. Hint: ----- Submitted by: bob Mauro Zarate bid bout 6mil he mint scores 20 + goals a season needs 2 get fit though. Hint: ----- Submitted by: josh At the start of the game go to ghana and look for boetang who is a cm. very cheap but lots of clubs try to sign him, so b quick! also delgado for cruz azul very cheap buy. Billy sharp can b brilll 4 any prem team. any1 got any signings they cud recomend for a newly promoted prem team? Sugar Daddy: ------------ With this cheat, the clubs chairmen will now be a Sugar Daddy, and will continuelsy pump money into the clubs transfer budget. If you got to Editor, and click Clubs, you then should click your selected club. Then in the top left hand bar you want to click fiances and you will see a unticked button which is Sugar Daddy. If you are to click this then save, then load up that database and choose that team you clicked Sugar Daddy on. Your first transfer budget will be doubled, and every month you will make profits of 5ish million and will soon be unstopable. Quality players: ---------------- Submitted by: Tom Kelsall lulinha-AMC antonio adan-GK mamadou sakho-DLC miguel veloso-D/DMC matuzalem-MC emiliano insua-DL jack hobbs-DC carlos vela-FC joe hart-GK andrea carozza-MC marcelo-DL dani alves-DR Hint: ----- Submitted by: crayz E tom when you install FM 2008 on ure PC, go onto start and programs, then find ure FM 2008 and there shud b a data editor there too. you can edit clubs and create players so u can customise ure favourite teams to be the best with the most money and best players. but if u create a team, when u choose leagues that u can manage in at the beginnin of a new game, u will not be able to manage in the country u put the new team in! Hint: ----- Submitted by: pardonmyfrench I know how to solve the problem that u can't choose the country u put a self-manufactured team in. Here's the tip: When ur done creating, instead of placing ur creation in the league, u swap it with an existing one. In that way it won't, pardon my French,f#@k itself up. The Editor is a really handy tool. I put Solberg from Third Division in Norway, to the Tippeliga by swapping it with Rosenborg. Nice, huh?;) Good Striker: ------------- To get a good striker as man utd loan out FRAZIER CAMPBELL to WALSALL for a season or 2 when i did this he was scoring in every game and gettin player of the month frequently aswell. when he comes back he should be a good player to keep hold of. message me with what you think about this tip thanks. Championship Tactic: -------------------- Submitted by: Cheatsbook Here is a good tactic for Hull City, i was 24th in the Championship and with this tactic i got 8th in my first season. -------Fc------- -------Amc------- -Lm---Cm---Cm--Rm -Lb---Cb---Cb--Rb --------Gk------- -Have the Am with arrows going to Dmc. -Have the 2 cm going to the Amc. -Have the Side mids going up like the Cm's. Attacking Instructions: -Play Attacking -Have Lots Of Freedom -Have Short Passing -Time Waste Often Just do what it says there it dosent matter how attacking you need to go. Hope this Helps people who are struggling in the Championship. Fan Days: --------- Although you do not choose when you get a fan day it can benifit you a lot. What it is used for is smaller club who want to expand their support. They will let people come in and watch a game of football for free therefore hoping they will enjoy it and pay to come back and see the team again. Make sure you put up a good performance and an entertaining match or they will not want to come back and it would end up being a waste of time. Hint: ----- Submitted by: izzat cardiac Get new quality youth players out of nowhere!! (depending your current squad status) organize a friendly match with your reserves. move most of your players to reserve.just left behind some of your top quality players (make them below 11). and let your assistant play the match.after the match you will find some quality youth players out of nowhere playing for your team. the best thing is that you can offer them a contract..cool eh? Fix National Teams: ------------------- Due to licensing some National Teams don't have proper players (Germany for example) To get rid of this go to: "C:/Program Files/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2008/data/db/800/lnc/all" once there copy the file entitled "fake.lnc" (You may wish to put it in a safe place as backup if needed) then delete the file "fake.lnc" and when you start a new game the countries effected will have the proper squad. All this file does it put a "mask" on the national teams effected and once you remove it will get rid of the mask. Money Earner: ------------- A nice way to earn some money for your very poor lower league club. Arrange fixtures for the reserve and youth teams against other high profile reserve and youth teams. For some reason a friendly against Barcelona B brings in the same amount of money as a friendly against Barcelona A would and if you use your Reserve team the opposition will not request a feee for their participation. This was especially useful in the Blue Square South with Bognor Regis. Neither the reserves nor the youth teams played in a league and were therefore free to play friendlies all season. I tried to organise friendly leagues as these bring in the most money and always invited the reserve or youth teams of the clubs that appeared on the 'major clubs' pages. Within a season I had a bank balance of £4'000'000 and started the next season with a transfer budget of £1.2 million. Best Formation: --------------- I found with liverpool the best formation is 2-1-4-3 with renia in goal, caragher and terry in defence, fabregas in mid, ronaldo left flank and messi right, gerrard and ribery in centre and then torres, villa and babel up front. so it looks like this ---------------Renia----------------- -----------Terry-----Caragher-------- -----------------Fabregas------------ Ronaldo--------Gerrard---Ribery----Messi-- ------------Babel--Torres--Villa To sign these players just edit it on editor because some are hard to sign but any player who specialises in the positions is good. Just as long as the team plays attacking football, and is strong so put empahisis on weight training. brilliant Young players i havnt heard mentiond alot, some wonderkids, some unstopable kids: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submitted by: Gordon 1. Hugo Lloris (goalkeeper) best keep in the game after 2 seasons 2. Joe Mattock (leicster) class left back, makes lots of assists 3. Danny Simpson, needs time but wordclass fullback 4. Gerard Pique centre back, must buy dnt nee to say anymore 5. Miralem Pjanic, touted as the next ivica oslim, world class attacking midfielder 5. Marko Marin. touted as the next franz beckenbaur, need i say more??! 6. Harry Forrester (whu u18's) touted as the next wayne rooney 7. Lee Catermole, midfield general, dominates almost evry game 8. Remy Riou goalkeeper brilliant prospect, flourishes under iker cassilas tuition. 9. Fabrice Muamba 10. tui de melo , next luca toni 11. Cristian Zapata worldclass centre back Hint: ----- Submitted by: Ben oh my god there is this wicked player arda he is called and he plays for turkey he is a left winger and scores for me in every single match nearly and also he is only 13m so buy him and u will see wat he is like. Recommened Player: ------------------ One player that is definately worth signing is Marcelo of Real Madrid. Has get out clause set at £5.5million and is worth every penny. I am in my 3rd season with liverpool and he is averaging 8.08 and is worth £18million. Cheat: ------ Submitted by: crayz E tom If u use the editor and choose a team to edit, u obviously wnt sum gud playas. if u go on this website and find them u may think u have all the best playas, but some time u dont! when you get the playa, look at his future potential, if its really near to 200 then they are good. but you can get playas that are in the minus's, if you get a playa that is -10 they can be really really good, but only if they have a high current potential. FREE player purchasing: ----------------------- If you want easy player transfers, just Add a New User and be the manager of the club you want to obtain the player from. Step 2 is to put the player on transfer, keeping in mind to change it after you accept your original team's bid, otherwise your screen will be filled with bids from other clubs. All you have to do then, is make a 0 pound bid of the player and accept it on the other side. Next comes the task of the player's agreement, you have to be a little patient in this case and really do everything to tick the player off, like setting him to "Unwanted By the Club," or chucking him into the reserves squad, or making his team lose by giving awful team talk. It doesn't take too long before the player will be begging on his knees to be transferred. I got Kaka, Silva, Rooney, Tevez, Ronaldhino, Deco, Cole, Ferdinand, and the list goes on, ALL playing in my Liverpool team. Hint: ----- Submitted by: Will here a few players u can buy for league 1 teams: aaron mclean (40 goals in 50 games) loan toni kroos great goalscorer and assister figueroa (36 goals in 45 games) Easy non editor money and get rid of player: -------------------------------------------- You first get your club and find a player you want to get rid of (I use useless youth players for this). then you make a new manager and have him as a manager of a rich club (e.g. UK big 4, Madrid, Barcelona, look on the rich clubs list), you set your transfer budget as the highest possible, transfer wages to transfer cash, and buy your naff player for all of your transfer bill. Then offer the player the best contract possible and they will sign and your club will be richer, then resign and repeat with another team. Money without a cheating tool: ------------------------------ Submitted by: henrik Go to /FM2008/user/objects there is a document called cars in wich it is possible to change the price of them... also to be negative, so that u earn money when you buy them... e.g fix Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,9300,atos.bmp,2005 to Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,Hyundai Atos,-100000000,atos.bmp,2005 Hint: ----- Submitted by: SerDjurdjevic Best player who have is Mika Aaritalo Finland you can sing him betwen 50.000 - 200.000 he grow very fast in smal club.

Regens apear in the games almost every month(especially june, july, august, december and january) You actually can see all that players if you serch "backspace" in the "search box" up right. The newest regens are at the bottom always right before the countries. It takes time to see all ( especially because a lot of regens are from Haiti, bermuda, etc) but is worth it. Than, if you like a player profile scout it (is better if your scout has at least 15 on JPP). Usually the player is rated by a star but has a potencial of 5 or more!(WORLD-CLASS) (NOTE: If you manage a small team try to sign only from good above) the decent ones are often crappy. -You save a lot of time if you only search for: brazilians, spanish, england, france, holland, italy, argentina and germany.

Just make sure you always offer a value lower than the player's termination fine (otherwise you won't have your offer acceptable - it will indicate "team X accepted the offer" but no negotiation will follow). Usually, your team's president will manage the negotiation (if not, accept it manually). Buy cheaper players: -------------------- Same deal: create a new user - this time, pick up the team who owns the player you want. With your own user, offer $0 (or more - really, who would?) for the player, and accept with the other user. Notice that some players may not be interested in playing for your team (honest, I've tried to contract Adriano for my ADAP Galo Maring - a small, almost unknown brazilian team - offering R$700.000 per week, and he refused).
