Only managed 2 games so far on the new patch but no complaints from me. My 4-4-2 thankfully doesn't seem badly affected and managed a 3-1 win with Crewe against top of the league Crystal Palace
No penalties in those 2 matches either

The player will weigh up his options, including his current contract with you. I usually offer a new contract anyway if the player is in my long term plans.

Choose a club and stick with them. 4-4-2. Never rotate. Hate the board.

Some years ago (maybe FM08 or 09), I played a save in Portugal and two of my players had the same five letter name. One was a rubbish goalkeeper and one was a decent young winger.
Suffice to say that when a decent offer came in for the transfer listed keeper, I bit their hands off. Of course I had sold the wrong player.
It then took me 2 games to realise when my winger was awful having previously been ok.
I wasn't even drunk, but I had done what I always did and reordered player lists alphabetically rather than by position. Not done this since.
That's brilliant

Have you considered that maybe your goalkeeper is actually a T-Rex wearing a human mask? I mean, the low aggression suggests otherwise, but it has to be worth checking out.
The South African version of Pickford, maybe?

Release on a free - you pay the player's contract off to make him leave (usually the most expensive option)
Mutual termination - You ask the player how much money he would require to end his contract. Depending on how much the player wants to leave, he may ask for a smaller amount than 'Release on a free'.
Set for release - The player will leave for free at the end of his contract.
If he has quite a while remaining on his contract, it might be worth offering him out to clubs for a reduced fee or even for free, to hopefully drum up some interest

I can guarantee nobody has come off with a bruised shin.
And this is where our conversation ends when ridiculous claims like this are made.
Have a good day

And the lads like him get slaughtered by the other lads and binned off by the manager.
You might come off with a bruised shin leaving ya team with 9 men, I can guarantee its the last time you'll ever play for that manager again.
And yet he is now playing for Bayern rather than Stoke.

Nah I think you'll find even pros would slaughter a lad for a bruised shin leaving em down to 9 men.
If you listen to any ex-pro talk about their career they'll often say how much they played injured. Just getting injections etc to get through a series of games.
Andy Johnson (West brom midfielder) essentially played with a broken back for about 2 years until he finally had no choice but to get surgery.
Seriously if you came off with a bruised shin leaving ya team down to 9 men you'd be absolutely binned off or have to fake a broken leg.
Again, players and staff don't always know it's just a bruise or just a niggle until they have been able to assess the injury in the coming hours or days. Especially in the last few years, clubs and players tend to err on the side of caution. A bruised shin can cause severe pain when walked on.
Maybe if Andy Johnson had been looked after more carefully, he would have had a better career and earned more money. As it is, he's actually now an electrician.
Clever players don't care about appearing to be macho for the sake of their team mates at the risk of their career and earnings. Like it or not, it's true.

I had a player come off with a bruised shin and I'd used all my subs and had a man sent off. (He was out for the sum total of 1 day with orange injured, not even full red injured)
Now I played semi-pro football in my youth and I can say with 1,000,000% certainty. That player would never play again and would be an absolute pariah in the dressing room if it came out he had a bruised shin and left the boys to toil with 9 men for 25 minutes rather than play on.
He'd be binned straight off.
I can also say for a cup final especially a Champs league final you are playing with blisters. Ya getting injected for anything worse. Only reason ya missing that is if something is torn or actually broken.
Its total unrealistic.
Professional footballers are a lot more cautious with injuries than semi-pros. The player could have thought the injury was worse than just a bruise, as may the physio and/or manager. A player won't risk his career for 25 minutes.
Agree on the blisters point though.

Speaking of Mourinho, he finished 2nd with Man Utd, and did very well in the cups. He was given less time than Solskjaer who's been much less successful, but plays "the united way". Ole has done no better than Moyes, Van Gaal, or Mourinho.
I imagine that is more down to him being a 'yes man' to Woodward and the owners
Again, United sacked Mourinho when they were 20 points behind the league leaders after around 15 games.
Maybe the United board are now wanting some consistency in their manager dealings. After all, it took Fergie a few years to win the league too.

He did. That's why even the successful managers got moved on.
Nonsense.
Their most successful manager, Mourinho, was sacked after consecutive draws against Blackburn and Rosenberg and a loss against Villa, as well as having numerous disagreements with Abramovich. Also never won the Champions League which Roman wanted.
Mourinho left the second time due to taking Chelsea to relegation candidates.
Ancelotti didn't retain the title and didn't do well in the Champions League. Di Mateo just wasn't good enough.
If Lampard suddenly starts playing long-ball defensive tactics, but wins the league and Champions League, he wouldn't be sacked. He would rightfully be hailed a hero and genius by fans and the board
Anyway, back to my save I go

Roman Abramovich.
If Chelsea won the league for the next 5 years running, while playing like Burnley, I don't think Roman would care.

Maybe log as a bug? Not a very big bug, but nonetheless still strange.

Zanzala at Crewe currently has 26 goals in 31 games for me. So much better than FM20.

Cheers for the advice.
I have narrowed it down to Birmingham, QPR, Millwall, Burton, Crewe and Bristol X2.
I'm currently managing Crewe and really enjoying it! Building my team around Harry Pickering whilst trying to keep Southampton and Everton away from poaching him

I also don’t see how playing for Gillingham will prove anyone wrong 😂 always rated him though, so nice to have him.
I used to like him until I found out he was a thief
He was once on loan at Burnley who I support. I remember him coming off the bench to score the winner on his debut, brilliant goal.
But then, as you do when you're a professional footballer, he decided to steal mobile phones from a nightclub.
I will forgive him in the virtual world
good luck!

I have raised in the bugs forum that we can't switch between tactics and team talks at half time and I have so far been ignored
Please tell me this is a known issue and will be resolved? It's so annoying making a half time substitution but then being unable to give the oncoming player an individual talk

In my current save they are 18th after 15 games. Their only victories have been away at Burnley and Chelsea (who are also struggling in 10th place).

One thing I have just noticed. I won a match 4-0 and praised my players. After the game I received a news item saying tempers flared in the dressing room and I wasn't happy.
I happened to also single out my striker for extra praise, I wonder if this had an effect? Strange!
