    it would be a completely different game then and no longer a "Manager"  

    It would still be Manager, only with more features. The manager feature will not be removed. You can also choose if you wish to start as normal manager or as club owner (not chairman).

  2. It would be an interesting feature if the Manager could start their save as both manager and club owner. By that I mean the manager when added will have complete control over the clubs finances such as transfer budget, wage budget and can build stadium, improve training facilities and will start the save as unsackable. If the manager is also the club owner, then there is no need for a chairman. In lower leagues such a role exists, sometime the owner creates the team and also manages it.

    This feature when added would give the manager more control over their club.

  3. It would be good if when players who barely make the substitutes list and play a few games a season (if the squad ability has greatly improved), who come to ask for a new contract despite having 1-2 years left, could be told that you are not interested in renewing their contracts. Currently there are only options that tell the player to improve themselves if they wish for a new contract to which the player sometimes reacts to negatively.

    I have a player who was a squad player when the team was playing in the Spanish 2nd division, the team now plays in the 1st division (La Liga) for 2 years, while the players contract is expiring in two years, the player is not in my plans after the remaining 2 years of his contract are over (player asks for an improved contract).

  4. It would be a good feature to have if when creating new players in Pre-Game editor you can check a box and make a player a newgen. By that I mean that when you add any fantasy players to the game through the Pre-Game editor you can make the game treat the players appearance as a newgen instead of having black face pictures.

  5. While signing a new player with a good personality trait, over time the personality of the player worsens due to the squads overall personality and social groups he belongs to. I propose the introduction of a hidden player trait that if added freezes the players current personality attributes, the trait can not be trained or removed through training and is not visible in any reports. The trait can be added to players in the editor and appears on some of the newgens. For example Luka Modric has a very good personality, however I am sure that the club he started out in Croatia had a bad squad personality compared to him and would have influenced his overall personality in the long term.

  6. It would be an interesting feature if scouts do not have to be present in a country in order to scout players but instead can watch a video recording to get an idea of the players abilities. The video could be from matches that have TV coverage or they could also have the option to pay some local or professional cameraman to record the match or film a player (the quality of video will determine how good of an idea the scout will get of the players abilities). In the movie GOAL Santiago moved to Real Madrid after the Real Madrid manager and his scouts thoroughly watched his videos in order to get an idea of his abilities.

  7. It would make the game more realistic if countries and cities have a hidden attribute called cost of living which would be the managers living expenses such as food, electricity, water, clothes, traveling expenses, etc. They could choose if they wish to live a frugal or lavish lifestyle. It would also be good if manager could either buy or rent a house and vehicle. Only 3 options are needed to select from: lifestyle, house and vehicle. That way the manager will have to negotiate for a higher contract if the country they live in is expensive and they wish to live a lavish lifestyle. They can choose from a range of very cheap to very expensive houses, apartments and vehicles (cars, motorcycles). While adding a new manager they can select whether the manager already owns any property and how wealthy they are (with a limit). If they have a house in a specific city they will be more likely to look for a job nearby. Properties can both be bought and sold. If manager is very wealthy they can also choose to make donations to a club, nation or a league.

  8. It would be more realistic if the managers would not be able to attend matches at the very last minute, if a manager wishes to attend live matches then they will have to be traveling (like in training before and after a match), they could still cancel at the last minute but if they have already arrived at the location they will have to travel back. Also it would make it more realistic if managers could choose how (and when) to travel to the location, for example they could choose to travel by plane or by personal car and pay for the travel expenses, and they could choose to stay in a country for a longer period of time as is the case for attending the World Cup. If manager can not take part in training due to the traveling, the assistant manager (or the next coach) will take over his training categories. The suggestion only applies to live matches, fixtures that are already finished could still be viewed from a recording, however it would make it even more realistic if only matches that have TV coverage could be viewed or if a scout attends the game (in case of another team scout, the club will have to buy the match recording, if inactive league then will only show how many scouts have attended). The viewing of fixtures could be checked before the game and be turned on and off for either realism or easier gameplay.

  9. You can do that. Before the next game the reserve and youth team managers both send me a report of the next match squad (available players from first team in reserve team match) where you can see the formation and are able to select the starting players, for substitutes you can set how many minutes the players could play. Both youth and reserve team use first team tactics so you can only train left back if the position is in your current formation and the player has minimum Competent or Accomplished rating in the position.

  10. Good idea. Would love to create world cup host nation rules in the editor where I can add Sweden, Finland and Estonia as hosts. Would also love to add specific stadiums from the list of all stadiums in the selected nations. For example if I add Estonia there will be a button near the name of the nation that you can click, where you will be directed to the list of all stadiums in the nation so you can add Lilleküla staadion (14 336 capacity). It would also be good if you can also add many years in advance, for example the next 50 world cups since they could be hidden from being seen in game until the next world cup arrives.

  11. Sports interactive will only consider adding new leagues if they massively increase their sales. Africa, Costa Rica, Bolivia, Venezuela will not give a very big increase in their sales, Saudi Arabia and Iran are likely the same. Japan is out of the question due to the license belonging to Konami who makes Pro Evolution Soccer (Now eFootball) and will likely be so for the next 10 years.

  12. It would save time if at the beginning of manager career the player has the option to take a full media quiz where the player can select which answers he will automatically give for which questions, the player can also skip the answer but then he will have to answer them in interviews. The player can retake the quiz at any time and answer any unanswered questions. Most of the time if not always I will give the same answers to the questions and it becomes very time consuming, if I send the assistant manager then he will answer something stupid like the team is going to defend when we are certainly going to attack. You can chose to answer the attacking mentality question based on the teams current mentality in tactics. At the beginning of the quiz you can select teams of your choice for every level (total of 5 levels: much weaker, weaker, equal, stronger, much stronger) in the quiz which will be used in the questions of the test. The quiz contains certain scenarious such as if you are managing FC Kuressaare (much lower reputation team) and you beat FC Barcelona 3-0 (much higher reputation team), what is your reaction, or if you are managing Nõmme Kalju (same reputation team) and draw with FC Levadia Tallinn (same reputation team) in the same league? Or current interest in a player depending if the player is added as a transfer target, is in shortlist, is scouted, or none of the above.

  13. The way this idea will work is you create a Match Plan under Tactics -} Match Plans and add the Match Plan in Schedule for example by clicking a edit button in Result row just like you click attend match for teams you can not manage, there you will be redirected to Match Plans menu where you can select a plan from your plan list. If a match plan is selected for a match, the player will not play the game but once the fixture arrives and the player is not on "holiday" the player will see the fixture and be able to click simulate to simulate the match.

    You can not create a new tactic on Match Plans, but you can select a created tactic and switch between the 3 saved tactics. There will be at least 4 categories you can edit in Match Plans: Tactical instructions (changes in tactics depending on result), player list (player role used in each of the 3 tactics, and injury replacement selection, it will be set as automatic as default, meaning the most suitable replacement from substitutes will be selected in case of injury), substitutions (when substitution for the starting player occurs with a AND/OR condition system like used in Search), complete team talks (you can also select which team talks are used depending on the current result (all options will be visible and can be changed (match start/half-time/extra-time/end, winning/losing/drawing), the default setting will be set as no team talk)). Only the original 11 positions used in the tactic are present at the beginning, you can add additional substitutes with a + button. Only the highest ranked substitutes in the list will be included in the match squad, if there are a total of 20 substitutes and the league rules only allow 7 substitutes, only the first 7 who are not injured will be included in the match squad (excluding the players filling in for the starting 11 and who can not play in the match). It would also be useful if the player has the option to add reserve and youth players to the list.

  14. The game would improve for many players if Football Manager would adopt a more Hattrick.org-type match plan editor under the tactics selection. You can make a match plan and then use the plan for certain fixtures. You can carefully plan the starting formation and substitutes, which players to substitute should a certain condition be met (replace right winger if losing by 1 goal on 60 minute) and which player you use should a player be injured in a certain position. That way the player gets the credit when going on holiday instead of having the assistant manager stand in for the fixture (fun fact: despite being on holiday the manager still takes part in team training). If no match plan is selected for the match then the assistant manager will still fill in for the manager and make their own decisions during the match. That way go on holiday could be replaced with simulate forward. There are many players who do not wish to watch the full game play out as it is quite time consuming (and frustrating if the team loses) while making substitutions and tactical changes, and just wish to simulate the game using preset instructions.

  15. It would be good if the reserve team manager has more freedom to make their own choices, such as select their own tactic and hire the staff they like. I have managed Real Zaragoza and the Deportivo Aragón manager is forced to use the same tactics as the first team. I also can not delegate the hiring of staff (coaches, scouts, and physios) to reserve manager, only to the technical director and head of youth manager in responsibilities, in addition to a few others to chose from the list.

  16. The game would improve if the quick pick recommendation would use the information from the squad planner. In squad planner you plan the players position and overall order for that position. If quick pick is based on squad planner then players who you have removed from a specific positions, lets say a player who can play both Central Defender and Defensive Midfielder and you remove Defensive Midfielder, will not be selected for the position of Defensive Midfielder.

    At the moment the squad planner only helps plan the squad, it does not help much in squad selection, unless you do it manually.
