Or all my teams and tactics are dire, still not sure:)
Still not quite enough to do hopefully Internationals will come in 1.6, I doubt it but nothing like hoping.
I did post a thing on that on the forums:-
Starts in Season 4.
Open Bidding System for the International Managers job using RP this bidding system is run the previous season.
Once the season starts International Managers have a new squad called the country, e.g. 'Brazil National Team'. They can pull players in and out of this squad as they see fit. This works like a shortlist the players don't actually move.
There is an International Cup, which runs regional qualifying of groups of six teams top one or two (depends on numbers) go through to finals of 32.
Three times during a season there are 'International Days' where 3 or 4 of these qualifying games are played. Players at midnight arrive in the squad on a 0% 24 hour loan, (Loans shouldn't count towards rep in Biography anyway?). They will only be eligible for the new game classification 'International'.
International Games can result in injuries but never cure players. Injured players can't be called up.
The Qualifiers are played in quickplay format where the home manager sets the time, could actually do this using home playing rights.
The finals are held in the close season, all International Players move to their International team during this time on a 5 day 0% loan.
Targets and Achievements - Managers love the Biography page, something like that on the managers profile, International Wins - Group & Finals stage. e.g. As an International manager Joe Bloggs has a proven record taking the unfancied Jordan to the finals in Season 14 and taking Italy all the way in Season 6.
Other Notes
Managers can opt out of having their players called up but their contract Negotiation skill is void.
The number of grads coming from a country is made more transparent and directly correlates to performance in the International Cup. This is crude concept numbers but say Italy normally produces 100 normal grads a season if they win the World Cup then bumper harvest following season of maybe 150. If they don't qualify then it's down to 50 if they got knocked out at group stage then it's 75.
I really want something else to do and if you are having a dismal time at senior and youth level and lets be honest everyone does at some point then this could provide the perfect relief.
Heck you could even make an entire sub game where you seed teams and award RP on the target. So say San Marino were lowest seed you'd have 1m RP for finishing 4th in their group where as Brazil you'd get 1m RP for winning the International Cup.

I was going to comment on this on the forums but I can't seem to find it (or is it on the beta forums?) so I'll comment here instead.
I really like this plan - I know this is an idea that's been around for ages but I've never really seen a full suggestion like this of how it might work. I particularly love some of the little touches you've got like performance in the international cup helping decide how many youths should come through from each country's YAs in the following seasons, and intl management being decided by RP auctions (might make RPs mean something more for a lot of people)
I would just make three changes:
1 - no sticky injuries in international games, I think it just confuses matters and annoys people otherwise.
2 - I would have players being part of their club squad AND their international squad simultaneously rather than moving from one to another for a day (which might stop clubs playing matches). Surely a copy of each player's db entry could be taken and put in to the intl squad to avoid clashes if both teams were playing at once?
3 - Point 2 would enable the qualifying games to be played at times that fitted the managers, not at fixed times. But I would love it if the International Cup finals was a quickplay tournament with the time fixed a month in advance so people knew when they would be committing to if they bid for an international team. The day of the week/time could be varied season on season to encourage different managers to have a go.
Of course, what would be even better would be if we had this international cup every other season, and an equivalent competition between the different FAs' allstar teams in the alternate season. But I'll take this for starters ;)
Jak, I need some counselling. Am I the only one sick of (433), "I need compensation, ME's fucked, must be a bug" diatribe?
Perhaps a counter whinge blog?

everybody should read jakswans blog. In times of solace, I like to imagine those who post very long gripes demanding compensation are the overwhelming minority. The rest of us go about our daily lives reading, deleting "37k for him???" discussion mail by those aforementioned.
Awaiting Jakswan's next book - rumour has it he cracked the whining missus...
I like it Jak. Wondering if finalists would ever be invited to SI towers to play their matches live?
