Must say unfortunately the female faces are utterly horrific. They look like men in wigs - in fact I'm barely convinced that's not exactly what the models are. It isn't a feminine facial structure at all. Maybe I have a unique perspective here, but I've been going through gender transition for less than half a year and I can genuinely say my face is more convincingly feminine in real life than in the game

I don't think so. It's probably because they are adding women football so they had to change the language.
Same thing with"target forward" instead of "target man"
Oh no, I hadn't seen that one. All for women's football being added, but must admit I don't like the change. "Target Man" has always described the role, I feel like I'd prefer FM to follow the common usage of terms rather than try to lead the way in changing them.

Well, Neil said they will implement it when everything is ready, so it's likely to be added whenever it's clarified and ready.
We'll see I guess. It's UEFA: There were details about the Conference League that weren't confirmed until a couple of weeks before it started! Hence I was genuinely wondering whether SI may be privy to behind-the-science maneuvers; I guess we'll see

Also minor annoyance; the up and down arrow keys don't move between players on the squad list any more

Is the change of Man Management to People Management an indication that e.g. it also effects managing staff now, or just a touch of rephrasing ahead of the future introduction of Women's football?

The link you posted even say the seeding system and the format is not ready yet...
I guess that's true. It's referring to the SFs - whether to continue with two-legged SFs or to play them as part of a "Finals Week". And seeding is whether the draw should be 1vs16, 2vs15 etc in the knockouts or random each round. I still think implementing the confirmed changes and then adding these later if they go through is a better idea than just using the old system which is going to be much further from the real-life situation.

Do you have any news from courts? Because that's what hold the processing
Eh? That's the Super League, not the Champions League.

It's not official, yet.
It's on UEFA's own website, with full details of who the extra teams qualifying will be, the number of matches etc. I honestly can't see what details are apparently missing? SI have certainly implemented changes with far less comprehensive details available than this before (e.g. when the Nations League and Conference League were announced).

Disappointed to see the new 2024 format for European competitions hasn't been included - I wonder whether perhaps SI have heard the rumours about more changes to it are true and decided not to put it in for now?

A lot of it comes down to it being too easy to buy and attract players. If you can very easily stack your squad with wonderkids, you've got no reason to take a punt on someone who might be the next Vardy or on a decent mid-table player as as a squad option. If the AI more actively competed to sign the top prospects then this might change.

Marcus Edwards in particular very likely also has horrible personality stats - he was seen at Spurs as having all the talent in the world but not the attitude to make the most of it.

I'd consider doing it based on the London Metropolitan Area (effectively the commuter belt) and having fewer teams. This format maintains more of a competitive balance and includes every London Area club playable on FM21 (tiers based on 20-21 season results)
Tier One (12 clubs):
Chelsea
Tottenham
Arsenal
West Ham
Crystal Palace
Brentford
Watford
Fulham
Millwall
QPR
Luton
Reading
Tier Two (12 clubs):
Charlton
Wimbledeon
Wycombe
Leyton Orient
Sutton United
Stevenage
Crawley
Bromley
Dagenham and Redbridge
Borehamwood
Maidenhead United
Aldershot
Tier 3 (16 clubs):
Barnet
Woking
Wealdstone
Dartford
Dulwich
Ebbsfleet
Hampton & Richmond
Welling United
Hemel Hempstead
St Albans
Chelmsford
Billericay
Concord Rangers
Maidstone
Tonbridge Angels
Slough

Just say no, and if you need to sell and replace then sell and replace. If you start giving in as you have done, then it only gets worse because other players, even mediocre ones, will want parity with the bumper deals you've agreed. Regardless of that though, if your club has lots of spare cash, then a good player will know you can afford big wages, know you want to keep him, and therefore demand big wages. There's a reason why essentially no football clubs are consistently profitable and owners instead make money by increasing the club value over time. If you've got money to spare, players will try their best to take it from you!

That’s only taking adult tickets into account as well. If you factor in discounts for seniors and juniors the average cost comes down even further.
I agree it seems they’ve got this about right imo
I was told concessions tickets are factored in by the game engine, and the average price in the data should be the average adult price. I calculated it in some depth about 3 or 4 years ago and think it came to around £63 once you factor in the capacity in each area (those £30 tickets are in a tiny corner of one tier and can only be bought alongside Junior tickets, whereas the more expensive ones are much more numerous). But I think the thread is deleted or made invisible after the year that game was out, so that you can't point out how many years in a row something's been reported.

As we've explained to you before - the best place to post this is in the research section. Post what you think is wrong and post the link etc to back up what you're claiming.
I posted the point about ticket prices literally years ago, with evidence and calculations for exactly what I thought it would should be. I got no reply, and nothing was changed - I'd totally wasted me time. Now I'm not blaming individual researchers, they're very busy people. But SI make a huge amount of these games. It's frankly not acceptable for factual information about clubs from the most-played league in the game to be wrong, and it's even more ridiculous to suggest that if people want it fixed they need to do the work themselves, post again and hope for the best rather than the multi-million pound studio just... reading and fixing it.

Thanks so much for this!
One slight error I've found: In England, relegated clubs still get up to £88m in parachute payments

Good find. Weird thing actually to set the age like that. Might have to keep an eye on it whether it is in FM22 as well.
Could it actually be useful in a niche case? If, let's say, you wanted to create the Super League, you could give the participating clubs a Maximum Age of 50 or something, and then they'd be excluded from the normal UEFA competitions which would still run with the coefficients working etc.

I think the only workaround in the pre-game editor would be to make the time for citizenship ~1 year and 8 months, so that the paperwork would be done around two years. But I think FM's approach is more realistic - in most countries you do have to meet the criteria first, and then go through all the bureaucracy.

Loaning a player in counts as taking up a slot. But loaning one out doesn't - you have to "permanently" remove him from Italian football by selling him abroad or terminating his contract.

Right now in the mens game their is a forgotten continent, a vast black hole stretching from Zimbabwe to the Mediterranean. I wonder why SI doesnt value African football?
When I suggested the womans game as a standalone I wasnt implying that they let it wither and die. Launch the game, let it find its niche and stick with it. The licensing fees should be significantly less so the game could actually be a lot cheaper than the main game.
African club football is sadly a bit of a mess. Even in the highest-profile leagues, there is constant match-fixing, corruption and bizarre rule changes. Add to that it's a nightmare to research, and sadly it probably isn't a priority. There's a reason every remotely decent African footballer leaves the continent ASAP.

Would you rather have a very good player for a couple of years and then make a profit on him, or never have him at all? Unless there's someone even better or without a release clause you can get for the same money, it's a no-brainer for me.

I am playing on Russian League and I was noting the Squad rules for Foreign players, where each team is allowed to register 8 foreign players. I see some players of my team (Rubin) are a long time playing and they aren't counting the days to get the russian nationality. A player is South Korean and a couple from Georgia. Are there nations where is prohibited to get the russian nationality?
Russia does not allow dual citizenship for the vast majority of countries, so the players in question would have to give up their actual nationalities and presumably don't want to do so.

The only thing I did try and use for that save was this https://community.sigames.com/forums/topic/539453-fm21-smarter-ai-managers-staff-increase-the-difficulty/
Interestingly, I used this exact same file, and also ended up signing Todibo on a bosman from Barcelona...

The clause only applies if you're in Europe, and they're not. Since they're still in the Conference League is isn't active.

Now I've always been in the camp of not having a keeper on the bench in FM. But I've just noticed one of mine who's out on loan has actually picked up a red card, and I'm still very early in the save. Maybe a total fluke but it's giving me food for thought...
