Medion Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I thought I'd start a thread about this since there are a few mentions in the sticky announcement thread. It should make things easier for Mark to keep track of things for future updates. Bungieware: David Bentley from Tottenham. Scoham: Chris Solly, Chris Dickson and Scott Wagstaff from Charlton.

Stuart Warren Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Nice idea Medion A quick note on this issue for those new to FMH; we extract our data from FM's huuuuge database and the process is designed to keep the most important players within the squad size limit based on various factors, but it's not fool-proof and testing every squad in the game for missing important players is a nigh impossible task, so unfortunately some omissions do slip through. When listing missing players please bear the squad size limit of 36 players in mind (it's there due to memory limitations of the platforms) and the fact that we never completely fill squads from the start, so that transfer can take place Generally squads will start with about 30 players, so when pointing out those missing consider whether there are players included in the squad who you'd deem LESS important than them, as it's likely to include them we will have to swap players in/out of the game rather than simply add those missing. That said, some exclusions are obvious to everyone (I'm a gooner... but Bentley was an honest mistake, promise ) and we'll address them in any future updates. Cheers, Stu Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoham Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Solly is Charlton's second choice right back. In game Moutaouakil is ahead of him, but IRL we have been trying to get rid of him. Wagstaff is the second choice right winger, but I guess because we have so many MCs he is left out. He shouldn't be though, he's pretty much always in the match day squad. Dickson is can understand, he's on a short term loan with Gillingham. Ideally he'd be in there though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Oldham Athletic: (some of these are understandable timing errors, but the number of loans makes it hard to reflect the actual first team squad so clearing out the old loans would be good) SUGGEST ADDING Greg Fleming - goalkeeper (currently on loan to Dunfermline) Joe Jacobson - arguably the club's first choice left full back Kelvin Lomax - reserve full back (right and left), but still nearly 100 league games for us Ryan Brooke - regular reserve striker Lewis Alessandra - first team striker IF THERE'S ROOM WOULD ALSO ADD Paul Black - talented young left back (though below Jacobson in the pecking order) Kirk Millar - young winger who's just made the first team breakthrough and been offered a professional deal Tom Eaves - very promising up-and-coming striker SUGGEST REMOVING Anthony White - youth keeper who's never made a first team squad and hasn't been offered a contract David Kalnoki-Kis - loan ended (and never made an appearance anyway) Szabolcs Csorba - ditto Norbert Csiki - ditto Attila Besztercsei - ditto Patrik Tischler - ditto (I think he's down as an Oldham player in the game, but can't remember if I cancelled his loan) Ferenc Fodor - loan signing who looks unlikely to play for us Hasney Aljofree - first team filler and doesn't look likely to play a game for us Jim Goodwin - loan signing who may not play for us again due to injury Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brindlefly Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I was going to mention him and Michael Potts, just because on the regular game they always tend to get into the first team quite quickly for Blackburn (and Jonesy is now in the first team IRL and kicking ass). To add them two in I would take out Andy Haworth and Johnny Flynn. Also, I don't know what the position is on loaned out players, but I can't see Mark Bunn or Frank Fielding for Blackburn (both keepers, both way ahead of Jake Kean who is in the game (Bunn is our third choice keeper), but both are or where on loan (Bunn was at Sheff United but recalled when Robbo got injured, Fielding is with Rochdale I think)....though Gunning is in the squad and he is also on loan, so I have no idea).

drmanley Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Bristol City: Saborio and Basso have both left the club and should be removed. The main omission is Cole Skuse who's played pretty much every game he's been fit for this season. Stephen Henderson should replace Basso as the 2nd keeper. Christian Ribeiro is a hot prospect who has started the last few games and should be added if possible. I'd be surprised if trundle or styvar played for the club again.

Mertyn Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Portsmouth Missing Ricardo Rocha (DC) and Marc Wilson (DC/DM/MC), two pivotal defenders. This leave Pompey desperately short of DC talent at the beginnign of the game and makes making a signing a must. Strangley there is Heridarsson, Belhadj and Tosic (who has never played for us) so LB is very well covered. We also have 3 goalkeepers - James, Ashdown and Neimi.

It is sometimes the case that you will notice (for example) an English-based player missing when you play in England, but he will then appear in the game when you play outside of England. This is because when you're playing in England, we have to make sure that every playable team has a decent squad of players. Therefore a player with low current ability but high potential ability may be excluded to make way for a player who can perform from the start. When you then go outside of England, because the English clubs are then 'inactive' as it were, they don't need to have such a strict squad size. In this instance, the game will favour high potential players over average squad players, so players who weren't there when you played in England, may be there when you play in Spain. Hope that helps explain things a bit! Still no Rene Krhin for Inter who is at present a regular Slovakian international and played in the world-cup playoffs. Thanks for the info.

Is it possible to in future updates everyone who is on loan can be placed in the reserves? So it doesn't clog up the first team (and prompting that annoying reminder about first team squad size too big!) This was considered before release, although I think we were concerned that it may not be obvious to everyone that there were players hidden in the reserve team and thought it may be best to include everyone in the senior squad initially, allowing you to move them if you wanted. It's certainly worth considering again though, so thanks for your feedback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
