Gaaei is slowly getting up to speed now (at Ajax), even earned his first call up for Danish national team due to Bah being injured. I am vey in doubt whether or not to sell him: on one hand I want to give home grown product a chance, on the other he does provide speed and stamina on the right flank, while even without some basic technique he sometimes does produce a good cross or long shot at goal.

You know, succesful with Brøndby and Viborg, your figure of becoming a national manager in a campaign towards EURO 2028Thanks mate. It was just my own workaround for wanting to play Champions League games with Brøndby, but at the same time wanting a new experience domestically. I was a bit nervous about whether Brøndby would go crazy in the transfer window (in my Viborg save), making the idea of parallel saves hard to perform. But they didn't do anything and have remained a pretty recognizable outfit.Now that I was offered the Denmark job in the Brøndby save, I hope for the same in the Viborg save before the 2028 Euros. Time will tell if I'm going to be offered that job or not...

@Danimal5981 wrote:A Brøndby double, now on top with Viborg (of all teams...). This is almost going to easy now. I think the next challenge might be outside Denmark to keep it interesting.Maybe... I'm still not comfortable with my lack of goals though. I do only average one per game, so if I start conceding more, I could struggle to maintain my current position in the league. Things have become a bit too easy though, keeping a clean sheet in 8 of 10 games so far and leading the league, even though I chose a lesser club to postpone such a dominant position. We'll see what the rest of the season offers, and I kind of look forward to taking this club into European competitions too. Right now I can easily field the same 11 players week in week out. That is certainly going to change, if/when midweek games start piling up.

Aaaaah, I see: it's phased... So, one gets at least 6.000 and when ending at the top it could end at 12.000Now, I get it: thanks for clarifying

End of season it will become visible in my career too, but Denmark (as a country) is performing very decently in the UEFA Coefficient rankings with the current format. Don't know if it's more FC25 game or real life, but well done to such a modest country with all-in-all very modest clubs. I mean, Danish clubs never made it to a European final but lately (as a country) they are getting in the results and subsequent points.
I would definitely say it's an FC25 thing. As mentioned a few times in this save, Denmark apparently have 6 teams present in the UEFA competitions. I don't think that's very realistic, but perhaps the Danish clubs have just benefitted from the absence of numerous clubs in the game, making room for additional Danish clubs to take their place. Netherlands doesn't seem to have been given the same favour though.
In real life I think it's rare for Danish clubs to do anything worth mentioning in Europe. Except FC København, who have found the formula of being a dominant force domestically whilst also being able to adjust and be a 'tough to beat' underdog in European matches. Other Danish top sides have made it a habit to flop completely in European qualifiers, so even though Brøndby or FC Midtjylland can beat the Copenhagen side in the national tournaments, both are far off when it comes to the adjustment of playing in Europe with less ball possession etc.

What's leading in Danish league: Goal difference, or Head-2-Head?

The best defence VS The best attack in this league.
For the sake of storytelling, such contrast is ideal

Yes indeed. I'm very happy to see the old club win and provide the competition for the new club. And yes, I do enjoy this contrast too.

Another 1,000 coefficient point to the tally of Denmark. The new setup of European tournaments (the new format, but also the introduction of the European Conference League before that) have changed the dynamics a bit.
Once, a team scoring over 20,000 points would be seen as having had a good season, the real stand out seasons would give teams 30 or a bit over. Now, 30,000 is the absolute minimum. PSV bagged 35,500 with a spot in the quarter finals, while my team went out in the preliminary round of 16 in Europea League with only 13,000 points to show. Those reaching a Champions League final could be in the regions of 50,000 coefficient points, now!
Subsequently, a country's score also has to be taken differently: countries doing over 20,000 had a phenomenal season, double digits were considered good. Now, Netherlands scoring ca. 15,000 was underwhelming, disappointing. Denmark however, with a team less (lower dividing factor) and Türkiye did very well in my opening career season, especially given their ranking.
Some people just like to see games, I however follow these statistics with a keen eye.

@Danimal5981I think we understand the rules differently. I'll try to argue my case in the General Discussion forum, so it won't take too much space here.
Edit: Nevermind. I missed the part where additional points were added for every knockout round. That used to be there before, but I couldn't find it in the new rules, when I started a few months ago. But now I searched again and found it, so it seems my current interpretation has been wrong.
