Thanks man, I didn't know that, that's awesome!

I shout *before* the highlight starts, though. Shout--> Highlight begins --> Shout effect takes place --> team morale drops. That's the problem. There should be an option to confirm shout after goal as there is for substitutions to prevent this from happening. I've just put in in as a feature request.

As far as I can tell, if a highlight is being generated a shout will be postponed until after the highlight is played (in a similar fashion to a substitution). I would like a feature added to force the conformation of a shout after a goal in the same way as is present for a substitution. I have had a lot of instances of shouting to encourage my team only for them to score during a highlight which begins after my shout was input, only for the shout to go through after the goal and my team's body language to be wrecked. This has also happened when praising only to concede before the shout happens with similar results to the above. This makes touchline shouts into something akin to Russian roulette rather than a way to reliably influence your players. EDIT: Just to confirm, here is the chain of events I'm talking about: Touchline Shout Input --> Highlight Played --> Touchline shout takes effect --> Team body language disrupted

The most annoying thing with shouts is that they seem to take effect a few in-game minutes after you click for them to occur, during which events can transpire that would change the shout I would have chosen. For example, I've been leading 1-0 against a bigger team, clicked the praise shout, then conceded a goal during the next highlight, only for my shout to then go through after the highlight and my team body language to collapse. Similarly, I've encouraged when level, only to score and have the shout happen immediately afterwards, again wrecking the team performance. This is a really annoying issue that needs sorting out.

It's annoying and extremely unrealistic. The crowd is generally tense with a 1 goal margin. 'Olé' chanting should be reserved for when a team is completely comfortable in a match and the crowd is relaxed.
