You should also do this for the opponent its likely they created better quality chances. A high XG does not mean you should score over 3 goals.....but do wish SI would add a XG/s stat in the match statistics as it would lessen these misconceptions, although you can can track it in the xG graph. And looking at sky sports stats we had 6 clear cut chances to their 2. In all my years as an ipswich fan this has never happened before and isn't likely to happen again.

Ein Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 In theory no. The TI depends on the press type (it will only be triggered when the line of engagement is reached). The OI press is triggered when the opposition player receives the ball irrespective of the position on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stopazricky Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Is the 4-4-2 bug still in the game, where the midfield will push up in an extremely unrealistic way, making the formation line up as a literal 4-0-6?

You could gamble on approaching them once they are out of contract and you'll get reduced demands from them but other teams might jump in as well. I'm playing as Universitario in Peru. The problem for me is that the agents are always misleading during the opening interactions before the actual negotiations begin. I noted this earlier in the thread a few pages back, but the agents also sometimes start adding in bonuses that don't make any sense if you attempt to negotiate a lower wage to find a middle ground, and they'll still demand the same opening wage anyway - or keep increasing the wage, as I had in this case when a player in my team wanted a new contract. On 18/01/2024 at 12:57, tezcatlipoca665 said: Had a great interaction come from this. This guy is on £450 a week and is a Squad Player, and after discussing a potential contract with his agent, he wants between £1.5k and £1.8k per week. I think £1.5k is a hard limit at this level for somebody, so that's what I was aiming for (and we're over wage budget right now). During contract negotiations: -The Agent argues for £1.8k. I set it at £1.5k. -He demands £1.8k again. I set it again at £1.5k. -Agent tries for £2k. I set (and lock) for £1.5k. -Agent argues for a £2.4k contract if the player reaches 30 games (wtf???) and a per-international appearance fee of about £500 (for an average 31 year old that hasn't been capped by Uruguay once in his life?). Removed and excluded the 30 game clause. -Agent calls off the deal. This player's contract runs out in about 40 days at this point, and his agent just talked his replaceable 31 year old client out of a guaranteed 2 year contract making £1.1k more per week than he is right now. Some of the players in the team got upset because I didn't give him the contract he wanted, so I cheated and removed squad unhappiness because of how nonsensical squad unhappiness and team revolts are in this game. He's been relegated to the reserves to avoid further player squad unhappiness and placed on Set For Release. The player himself is eager to stay at the club. ngl, the two main things that'll grate on me and probably turn me back to FM23 is the general player interaction and how terrible the contract negotiations are in this. It isn't just specific to agents being bad at their job - players without agents are exactly the same way. Maybe I'm remembering things incorrectly, but I don't think FM23 was this bad with this stuff? Though one thing I noticed in FM23 in my Milan save was that youth academy players would argue for relatively high amounts of money (complete with the usual aggressive interactions) at 15 and 16 years old, and I'd just end up letting them go because they weren't going to amount to much anyway and I was like 'wow, f*** you' because of how the scripted interactions were written. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could gamble on approaching them once they are out of contract and you'll get reduced demands from them but other teams might jump in as well. I don't think he used a great example, but I have mentioned this here before too. Many times it happens where you'd ask the agent how much the player wants and when you open talks, he starts off asking for more than the max said by the agent. The agent will always give you two values and say the player wants around that. That part I think it's okay. He asked for more money not the end of the world but trying to negotiate is where I feel problems are. They are very strict and rarely you find a middle ground. I had a contract renewal where he asked for more than he agent said, £60k a week. I thought fine, he asking for more so let me boost his min release clause up by £20mil. He then asked for £20k more and I then only allowed to negotiate once before he gave me his ultimatum and last offer which again, was even more!! He literally asked for even more. Negotiations used to be more flexible in previous FMs. Some players tend to ask for stupid money anyway. Was doing a LFC tactic test earlier and they have a GK in their u23s called Jacob Poytress. He's really bad (on the game) but feels he can ask for £27k a week not playing a single game for 1st or u23 squad. I know it's unrelated but I do think contracts in FM is a bit 'unbalanced' atm. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NineCloudNine Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) The ‘take it or leave it’ attitude/approach of some agents is dumb, no doubt about it.

What's weird to me is that the negotiating system that's in place for staff contracts is pretty good and straightforward. They open with what they want, and you can negotiate with them to lower their wage in most cases. Agents seem determined to talk their players out of higher wages and multiple years' worth of job security beyond their actual worth. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RDF Tactics Posted January 30 Popular Post Share Posted January 30 So it's happened again. It happens every first season you manage Liverpool. Do you people believe this is a bug before I report it? Jacob Poytress, 0 u23 appearances. 0 first-team appearances. Wants emergency backup and is starting negotiations at £21k per week. From £775, he now wants £21k (this isn't isolated). He has no agent and doesn't want to talk about anything under £19k per week, which is still a ridiculous amount of money. He then moans about not getting it. And the worse thing, you can't even tell him that he's simply asking for too much money. The interaction at this point I believe isn't great. The answer you want to give is never there. This player should understand he's asking for too much based on what others in his squad status are getting. I should be able to tell him I'm not offering that much because A) he hasn't played a single game for any of the LFC teams B) compared to others his squad status, he is asking for too much. But instead, the options I have aren't what I actually want to say. Even in situations where you literally can't afford what they're asking for, the player should recognise you aren't in a financial position to offer. You don't have the option to say "I would love to give you a new contract but as you're aware, the clubs financial situation doesn't allow that right now but I promise your contract is a priority when the funds are available" or something along those lines. The player should recognise you aren't in a financial position to be offering contracts rather than be completely oblivious about it. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm more speaking when financial issues are actually the case, that your club can't offer out these contracts, the player should already have some understanding so there should/can be an option reminding the player that but also allowing you to set a promise once the funds are available. And even then, It's a generic response that isn't necessarily linked to your situation. You are stuck in this sort of ultimatum where the player comes knocking on your door and you only have that chance to respond to his requests. The moment you say you can't afford to, and he doesn't accept that, the responses given to you again after that are less than ideal. Then you have no option to double down on your financial reasons "no, I said we can't afford to as this is our financial situation, but you are a priority when we can afford" - or set a deadline/promise. Or sometimes you're stuck in the limbo of waiting for a transfer out to be completed to free up funds to offer a contract - the talks are rigid. There's nothing like "come back in a fortnight after transfers are complete" or whatever your situation may be. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also set training intensity based on condition in Training->Rest. I haven't had to rest a player in around 100 seasons of play since the start of FM23. Sorry, meant in that if I have a star player I have to wait for the game to suggest a rest so that I can talk to the player to tell them I am resting them, as if I do it myself they tend to get unhappy and complain. Just would be useful to choose when I speak to a player about resting them. Saying that saw Bust the Nets training video and started using those routines and also the tip to rest the 11 that played next day and thats improved things, although really you'd think 2 recovery sessions should be as good as a rest day.

Cmdr Christoff Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Personally I'm not finding the game too easy at all. I've only started back with the series since FM22, and so far have managed to keep Norwich in the Prem, and got Eastleigh their highest ever league finish in the Vanarama. Both being a real challenge for me. I've now taken the Espanyol job after they got relegated. Most of their best players have left due to relegation clauses, and the remaining players hate me! LOL My transfer budget is pretty low, and the Board expectations are an immediate return to Ligue 1. So I'm not expecting this to be easy either. I use my own tactics and formations, but I learn and take note from the more experienced Managers in this community. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Payaso Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 First real transfer window in the game was a huge disappointment. All the players that I was after also had plenty of AI teams with serious interests but when placing a bid, the AI practically never competed and even when it did, the players always ended up choosing my club even against teams with with more lucrative European competition available. Basically kills the desire to play long term careers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say 70% of VAR checks are given, the rest come up as 'No Penalty', which is great and wasn't the case in the previous games. There's actually some suspense when waiting for the outcome. However, the offside VAR checks are still stupid. If the flag is up, the goal won't be given 100% of the time. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I've seen overturned pens but that's almost always because the foul was outside of the box. Extremely rare to see a pen given then not because no foul - in my experience, it's mostly because the foul was on the edge then they give a free kick. And yeah you've noticed the linesman thing. The moment you see him flag, you know it's offside despite VAR checks, always offside. Similar with some skins, the scorer name is on the scoreboard and that's how you know its a goal - if the name doesn't appear on the scoresheet then offside lol so you know decisions before VAR concludes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed that the days until a player is homegrown isn't showing anymore which makes it hard to plan for future registration purposes. Then I noticed the champions league registration has been removed and doesn't show until you have to register which can really ruin a save since you can't open your squad. I normally click on it and see how many spots I have left. I can't do that anymore. Because of that my squad became unbalanced and it's basically ruined my save. Team cohesion is in the mud and I'll have to start a new one now. I was supposed to challenge for the title this year but now I'll have to start over. Is this a glitch or something that was done purposely? Is there a fix for this? Seems like the registration preview has been removed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
