I'm liking the variety of goals I'm seeing. Seems to be very well balanced. I was also very pleased when I had a forward get to the touch line just outside the goal mouth and actually PULLED IT BACK for a teammate to tap in. Used to be almost 100% of the time they'd fire away, ignoring wide open teammates.
The only gripe is I'm still seeing countless times where a player makes a great run only to have a dreadful shot. I don't think in the past two years I've ever seen someone actually score after one of these runs. Not sure if anyone else feels the same. I get that it's very rare for a great solo goal IRL too, but I can almost ignore these runs as they never produce a goal.

Anyone else noticing lots of your goals come off the keeper? I would guess that 50% of goals I've scored the keeper has gotten a piece of the ball before going in. Is this just coincidence or is anyone else noticing this?

Sorry if this has been covered, but does anyone know if it's possible to turn off the "include highlights" when you choose to scout a player until full knowledge? If I'm doing it from the scouting screen it's very annoying to have to click that each time. Most boxes like that have an option to "not show this message again".

I've had two game crashes so far, one was when I was updating my graphics packs and kept reloading the skin, the 2nd time was just after my first league game which I won handily 4-0
One other note that's always bothered me is the fact that you can't get a report on a player in your squad from anyone in the Scouting staff. I know the easy solution is to get some coach with a decent JA/JP, but it seems silly to me that I can't ask my Chief Scout for a report on a player.
Other than that I'm loving the way everything is presented this year. I love the post match reports, they're very nice to look at and useful too.
Has the bargaining window for contract negotiations been tightened a bit? Twice now when negotiating a contract for a new player I've made what I thought was a reasonable offer only to be shut down completely. This used to never happen to me unless I went insultingly low with the offer. I like it and think it's realistic, if not frustrating when that's the player you've really set your sights on.

puff, it's sports scientists who need fitness. DA don't need anything - just get the very cheapest you can find!
Right you are, I mixed up sports scientists and DA's. I'm surprised they didn't add in an attribute for DA's like "Analysis" or something. So DA's truly don't have any key attributes? Interesting. So they're basically just to add flavor?

Haven't played a game yet, I just took about 2 hours just to set up my graphics and set up my new save. Love the "scout until full knowledge" option. Will save lots of clicking I imagine. I also love the change from subscriptions. Very nice not to have to turn off a million subscriptions you don't want, even if it was only a one time thing.
I goofed on the data analyst staff. I figured it would be similar to a scout, except focusing on the data analysis of prospective players so I was looking for high JA/JP when I should've just worried about fitness. Why are they in the scouting staff then and not the coaching staff?
The new skin looks great, might not even need to try out different skins this year. It looks very clean without being quite so dull as years past.

Not sure if this is a repost, but I chuckled at this man's haircut.

Is professionalism a hidden attribute and you saw that it dropped by 5?
Because in my mind a model professional would be better than only fairly professional.

Accidentally put my GK at right wing before I started a match. Got this question from Neil Warnock after the game
