These are the top 3 Everton challenges on Football Manager 2017

British and Irish contingent

Any FM manager should be able to go into any side in the world and mould a squad to their own desires, and that’s what you’re going to do at Everton.

The Toffees currently have 16 British and Irish players in their first team squad, and a further four out on loan across the top two tiers of English football.

A lot has been made about how British players don’t get much of a chance in the top-flight, but you are going to give them that chance.

Remove all non-British and Irish players from the squad, using the editorial function at the start, and build a squad capable of winning domestic honours and finishing near the top of the Premier League.

You can sign only British and Irish players and, within six years, you will have won three domestic trophies and finished within the top four at least three times.

However, one of those top four finishes must be turned into a Premier League title.
