To be fair (and I say this as a Burnley fan) with the way Burnley defended yesterday, this is very accurate to real life

Just a couple of observations on the poor research of Burnley. 1. Supporter culture shows 'play direct football' which is nonsense. 2. Charlie Taylor has played as a CB all season and yet can't play there at all on FM23. 3. Jay Rodriguez is a natural ML in-game... he's never played as a ML in real life. Maybe as a AM(L) a couple of times but that's all. 4. Nathan Tella can be re-called by Southampton in real life, but this clause isn't in the game. 5. Sean Dyche is only listed as 'favoured personnel'. To list Dyche alongside Brian Jensen in the favoured personnel category is laughable. He's at the very least an Icon! 6. Vitinho can't play on the left in-game and yet has comfortably played LB this season. This is after 20 minutes of game play, I'm sure I'll find more but this is really disappointing so far.

I'll post them in the 'right thread', but this is also the FM23 Beta feedback thread so deserves to be posted here also.

Very poor from the Burnley researcher.

Just realised I've got £18 in my Steam account from a refund ages ago! Feel like I've just bought the game for half price

Haha I love that thank you!

I'll probably wait until after Christmas to buy this year's game. That's nothing against the game, I think it looks great... but I have a newborn son and if I spend £35 on a game I think my wife may divorce me I might not manage as many hours on this year's game but it will still be value for money even if I end up playing just 50 hours. People spend more money for just one night at the pub.

I was at the Burnley match last night and funnily enough thought about the team and tactics on FM23 on the way home. I'm sure SI will get it sorted, they usually do. I think the hardest part will be trying to match Vincent Kompany's tactics in-game. Maybe put every player on free-roam

Thanks for that. Hope you're well mate!

I have to admit, I had my reservations when women's football was first announced in FM but the Euros were a great showcase of the women's game. I'd definitely now be more inclined to manage a women's team on FM. I'm not sure how it would be implemented and if you could switch between the women's and men's games in the same save? I think people, myself included, were too quick to compare men's and women's football. If you observe each game on their own merits then women's football is great.
