lamp Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Brief: USA U23s announce roster prior to senior team selection and poach as much current senior USMNT talent as they can. This is the likes of Pulisic, Reyna, McKennie, Musah, Dest, etc. Subsequently I'm unable to restore them all to the senior national team. If I notice right away [I didn't at first], I can restore a few of the players to the senior team. But once the U23 roster goes under 19 players, I can't. And of course, I can't manually or automatically add other players to the youth squads over which I have no control. Once a few more days pass, I can't move anyone at all because the youth rosters are already locked in. An unpleasant surprise, because the calendar would have suggested that it wasn't time to pay attention until the senior selection date. It's a totally unplayable situation. Detail: Think this happens in part because the game is frustratingly wedded to a calendar format. In 2021, USA U23s announce squad for Olympic Games North American Qualifying on March 13, followed by USA U20s squad announcement on March 15, followed by USA North American Nations League on March 17. Really, the user experience should be that the relevant decision point which affects all rosters happens once, and the coach controls at least who is reserved for the senior squad and who is left in the pool for youth teams to pick up. More to the point, it baffles me why the U23 coaches are allowed to pluck players out of the senior setup to begin with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamp Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 Hi, is this a known issue? Do I just not know how to do something in the game, or is international simply not playable? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM101 Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Funny enough I'm managing the US too and the exact same thing is happening to me. Very annoying as you cannot pick young players who you really want in the squad as they are just nabbed from under your nose because the underage teams pick their teams before the player can. This is a fatal flaw that makes the game unplayable, it's not like a small thing that can be looked past, this should not happen and needs to be fixed. Surprised an error this blatant wasn't detected before release. I can't proceed with my international career as it stands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
