wattzy Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Hi, I'm having some issues with loans in game and wanted to see if anyone has experienced the same or if anyone has any tips for me. I'm currently a few years into a career and have floated between numerous National league and North/South league sides as i'm struggling to find success at the moment. One thing i've noticed (particularly with National league sides) is that whenever I take over a club they have 2/3 really good loan players. I generally find that the players on loan are key players, and often rated very highly by my staff. I also find that many of the other clubs in the league tend to have some brilliant youngsters in on loan, and most seasons the players tipped to be top scorers or the league's best players are always loanees from bigger clubs. My issue is, once i've finished my first season at a club and those loanees go back to their parent clubs, it seems completely impossible to replace them with loanees of the same quality! I've tried sending my scouts to specifically find loanees, i've tried scouting specific under 23 sides, and i've gone through the loan listed players with a fine-toothed comb, but I just can't seem to attract the same level of quality as other clubs. I'm afraid I don't have any specific examples to share at the moment, but has anyone noticed this? Am I doing something wrong with my scouting instructions? Or shall I just get a director of football in to do it for me? Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Able.Ryder Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Have you tried asking for a senior affiliate? I would say that if you have one, players may accept loans to your team easier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, my main gripe is the quality of loan players already at the club when I arrive vs the quality of loan players I can bring in myself once they leave. Feels like a massive gulf in quality.

Able.Ryder Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I see. Maybe it has something to do with your managerial reputation? Just a wild guess, as in my experience (not so vast, though) with low level clubs I've never seen such an obvious difference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
