    Just because we are updating the database before every new release with new information from the real world does not mean your save-game should collect new data from the real world every season in that save-game. Your save-game is it's own world.

    Contradicting yourself there am afraid, on one hand your like just because the real world updates on a yearly basis doesn't mean our save games should, but then on the other hand your telling us our own save game is it's own world...which is it?

    the player Preston decided wasn't worth keeping turn out about the same on average. 

    Dolan was considered Preston best young prospect, performing well in the youth setup, and Preston have went on record saying the youth prospect's who where ready for a fulltime contract are extremely unfortunate to be let go, most likely due to Covid-19 financial struggles. He's went on to sign a professional contract at a more prestigious club like Blackburn, so please don't be so disingenuous towards Dolan talent as a 18 year old kid, which at this point in his career we have no idea how good he will become other than the fact he is considered a good young prospect, who has started 16 games and scored 3 goals as a 18 year old in the championship, which is quite good going.

  3. Being unlucky is rarely if ever going to cost you a League title with a team like Liverpool, it would take lots of unlucky things to go against you. On pretty much most occasions the best team actually wins the league, Cup games on the other hand, you may just be having one of those games, where everything is going against you, every shot the opposition takes hits the back of the net, you make your subs and you get an injury. I have pretty much seen it all and been frustrated beyond belief. But believe me you will win more than you lose in these scenarios, you always only remember the bad times more, don't let it get to you and get back to another Champions League final and win it.

    There are only three English right wingers with a CA higher than 148, and the weakest of those has over 30 England caps (and will probably get downgraded in the next update)

    Maybe it isn't surprising the researcher doesn't think that a player Preston were unwilling to offer a professional contract to is likely to be that good

    Only used the increase of 20 in PA ability to counter argument the fact that it wouldn't exactly make him world class would it, it would give him the potential to be a very good player granted.

    Also not suggesting Dolan deserves a increase of 20 points in PA ability either, and how many English young players in general have a potential ability higher than 148 to be more specific, because CA is the current standard, we are talking about potential.

    I'd be interested to know what the OP thinks Dolan's range of dynamic PA should be? Should it plummet to 21 if he in game got a gambling addiction, say? Or went up by 30 points when he started taking steroids?

    I'm sure if Dolan turned out to be a Ballon D'Or winner, the researchers who decided his stats would be more than happy to hold their hands up and say they got it wrong. Likelihood is though that their judged stats are probably quite accurate, they literally get paid a living to do it.

    Would the OP bet any money on Dolan being the Ballon D'Or winner on the chance that it's not impossible for him to turn out world class? Don't think so.... If you don't look at PA and play the game the way it's designed to be played, you can look at every player the way you look at Dolan and you have your desired effect.

    Do you want realism or a virtual game? Do you genuinely believe in real life that Dolan has the chance to be world class?

    He doesn't need to be world class or win the Ballon D'Or to become a better player than he can become on my game, his PA in my game is 128, average to good player is pretty much his limitation, a 20 boost in PA wouldn't exactly make him world class would it.

    My DLP has an average rating of 7.39 in my current season, with 17 assists in all competitions and 2 goals (I am at the end of February). 

    And if it is a bug then post it in the bug forum. Posting it in the general discussion forum will generally encourage discussion.

    Who is this player, does he take corners or free kicks? my guess is he does, if not then does he have any other attacking midfielders in front of him, or does he have direct sight to your strikers.

    From my experience in a formation like 4-2-3-1, the DLP doesn't have a chance of that average rating, not a chance in hell, unless he's on corners and free kicks.

  7. The loan system has been tweaked alot in FM21, i have also noticed that almost all top teams lock ' player can be recalled' before ive even made a bid for the player, this must be related to all the complaints Si have had regarding how easy the game is and how it's to easy to loan top players to smaller clubs with no negative effect.

    In my pre-game editor Tyrhys Dolan has a minus PA which is what I’d expect for an 18 year-old.

    Yes you are correct but he still has a fixed PA number when i load the game, maybe i got a low roll on this one and maybe he can have higher on a different save with a different team, but how much higher i wouldn't think much if any to be honest, he most likely a -7, i got the roll of 128 PA in game , which is quite limited for him as a player to progress.

    This is actually not 100% correct. Even if you have a newgen with PA 200, if his hidden attributes are so bad, he won't reach it, not even close. And if you wouldn't check his PA with a tool you wouldn't even know that he was this talented. So it's just a value to hold the balance in the gameworld. My only argument to solve this topic years for years again is that SI denies us the access to this value^^  

    Which is why i said can and cannot become, a wonderkid with 200 PA still has the opportunity to become world class, my player for example who has a PA of 128 will never become world class, no matter how good he performs for me because the game is restricted to fixed numbers.

    Don't look at the numbers under the hood. That's the best advice I can give.

    Understand my friend, cause like others have said players can play well beyond there attributes, i have seen it so many times a player with low ability playing well beyond there limitations, and i will continue to have faith in players that aren't exactly fancied by the game in terms of numbers, its just frustrating that my faith and eye for a good player can never be fully rewarded by the game.

  11. Just now, HUNT3R said:

    Researchers aren't perfect. They, as well as coaches/scouts IRL and coaches/scouts in game change opinions about players.

     

    True nobody is perfect, not even the best scouts in the world always get it right, but i assure you in FM when Bojan was considered one of the best wonderkids, his PA ability was alot higher than 146, so researchers get it wrong both ways, but the current system is set in stone how good a young player can and cannot become, the system is very one sided.

  12. 10 minutes ago, HUNT3R said:

    Bojan was actually fantastic, if you remember. You can blame researchers all you want, but the entire world drooled over this kid. Me included. It was his attitude that let him down IRL, IIRC, not the fact that he didn't have potential.

    But yet in FM21 he has a potential ability of 146, quite low for someone that once upon a time was touted as being one of the best strikers in the game, yet Balotelli still has a potential ability of 180 in FM21 , which suggests to me that he never really made it to his full potential, either way the system does not work from a realism point of view, it works in keeping structure within the game that is all.

    You’re better off not knowing. Just enjoy him for what he’s giving you in the moment.

    Yeah your right, he's doing good and his stats are improving to a good level for the championship, just don't think he will cut it in the premiership, but you never know as you said some players play well beyond there level.

    One game doesn't make a star.

    Not one game... 14 starts - 12 goals - 4 Assists Because like i said i have faith in his attributes and ability, just a little disappointed faith and my judging of a players talent only goes so far since his full potential has already been foreseen by some random researcher that works for Sports Interactive.

    Of course if the kind of performances he puts in for Blackburn this season ultimately change people's minds he can be improved for the next version without the need for throwing out PA as a concept or assuming FM researchers and professional coaches alike are clueless about football.

    What if he sets the world alight for me in the game, a promising youngster that i have had faith in, shouldn't such things be dynamic in game just like real life, like you just said. There's already dynamics within the game for other aspects. Football Manager isn't always restricted to the confines of reality, as the creators said themselves, once the game world starts everything can change compared to reality.

    Its a game. A game literally based around the idea that all the ideas and skills and physique and ambitions and experienceof a footballer can be reduced to a set of numbers set by a 'mere individual'. If you're objecting to the idea of researchers and numbers, FM is not the game for you

    If every 19 year old who is good enough to come off the bench in the Championship could be expected to be playing at the top end of the Premier League if given enough time and there was literally no point in scouting for and paying for rare talents, it'd be much dumber and easier game. And it would also be making predictions about footballers futures, just one which were on average much less accurate.

    Man Utd spent over 30 million plus add ons on a couple of foreign 18 year olds when they could have had the 18 year old Lancashire lad released by Preston for free. Are you honestly trying to tell me the football world views them as having the same potential?

    I never said that every young individual should have unlimited potential and every young player can become something great, i have played football manager for a very long time and understand fully why CA and PA system exists. Am talking about my specific young winger in game who is only 18 and has some good base stats in key areas for his position to suggest that in game he could become a very good player, i don't think this about every young player i see, quite the opposite actually. But his ability to become something good has been set at a low level by a single individual. when in real life at this stage we have no concrete evidence to what my 18 year old wingers limitations are.

    The system is in place for a reason, and i fully respect your opinion that not all young players make it, it's just a bit disappointing that i have a young player who i see could become something good for the club, but am pretty much wasting my time on him since his limitations have already been set by the game that is all.

    Two clubs have already released Dolan in his short career, which they wouldn't have done if they felt they felt he had the raw ability to become a top Premier League player.

    Sure, occasionally they're wrong, but what's a lot more wrong is assuming every player has the same ability to improve.

    No what's more wrong is thinking a researcher from Si has already foreseen Dolan's future down to a mere fixed number. Dolan may or may not become anything special in real life, but what is for sure in real life his limitations are not set by a mere individual's say so.

    Remember all these so called wonderkids that didn't reach there potential once upon a time had a really high fixed potential in football manager, but then become nothing and have these numbers changed, why? because researcher's got it wrong predicting a player would become something special just like they can get it wrong setting limitations on players who do become something special, it works both ways you know, the system is only in place because there's nothing suitable to replace it.

  18. Never really had an issue with fixed potential ability untill now. You see am managing Blackburn Rovers at the moment and have a 18 year old wide player by the name of Tyrhys Dolan, now Dolan has all the raw abilities to become a top Premier League player, at only age 18 you would think with proper training and game time there's no reason why he can't have a great future at the club. But there's one thing that's stopping this, his capped potential ability, who decided in the real world that Tyrhys Dolan will never become a top premier league player? who has this crystal ball to set such limitations on a player? its impossible to tell at this stage in real life how good Tyrhys Dolan will become, but in football manager his future has already been foreseen with this so called fixed potential ability.

    'Blocked Cross' Manager 2021... 

    SI really need to look at the way players cross in this game. Why do players consistently avoid crossing when they're in space, only to wait to be closed down and then attempt a cross.

    Edit: Unfortunately I'm almost done with FM for the foreseeable - playing the game feels like such a chore currently.

    Maybe because if every wide player crossed when they had the opportunity we would have cricket scores?

    I care 0 about how seriously you take me if am honest.

    If you tell me winning 23 games, drawing 1 and losing 1 is not easy, then I got nothing else to discuss, with You.

    When you become a Champions league champion in 4 more seasons. Then you might fall from your precious horse and realise that the game is too easy.

    Take care.

    You clearly haven't read my post correctly, as you can see the Ai has matched my form game for game.

    Guess real life is easy as well, but quite the opposite for Celtic's form this season in real life, which is why football in FM and real life is completely situational.
