[[Suggestion] Dynamic Transfer/Loan Offers in General]

When making offers for players, clubs seem to make near identical offers the majority of the time, it'd be nice if clubs offered different transfers with different structures more.

1. Asking Prices for Players

If you offer a player out for say an initial fee of £10m with instalments of £5m and a player complains their asking price is too high, when you agree a lower price (say £12m), the asking price/offer to clubs is set to £12m up front.

For this situation, it'd be nice if you could set an overall figure you want and then allow clubs to make more dynamic offers that add up to that valuation. Some clubs may offer more up front, others may prefer to pay more overall but over time/add more performance based instalments. At the minute, when you set an asking price/offer players out, all the offers received tend to be very similar. You can then accept the bid that helps you based on circumstances.

2. Offering players out for loan

When setting playing time/wages for loans, it'd be better if this was as a minimum instead of what you're looking for. Particularly when setting playing time under "Offer to clubs" under Staff Responsibilities tab, if I set playing time as "Regular Starter", it'd be better if this was a minimum instead of what I want for all players.

If I have a more developed player, I might prefer them to be playing more regularly (Important Starter) but as I've set it to Regular Starter, clubs will only offer Regular Starter.

Wage wise, it'd be nice to be able to offer players out with lower wage percentages but with more playing time.

E.g. Important Player 50%

Regular Starter 70%

and so on to incentivise giving the player more time.

[[Discussion] Improving International Management]

Small thing I'd like to see is in the Squad Depth screen, it'd be useful if it only showed players you had got called up instead of all players in your pool. It'd just make deciding a balanced squad a bit easier.

[Advanced and creative set piece routines]

Also for each position in the routine (i.e. where we tell players to stand/run), could we add ability to put a list of preferred players for each position instead of by position. So like we have preferred takers for set pieces, preferred players for each "role" in the routine.

That way if I bring a shorter centre back on, it'd mean a taller CM for example would automatically replace my taller CB in a routine instead of me having to manually shift players around in my routines.

[[Discussion]Adding U18 & U23 players to first team training]

When you're on units screen as the minute, you click Add/Remove Youth Player, select the team, then the position. Once you click a player, the menu immediately disappears - it'd be neat if the selection menu stayed so you could tick multiple players and then click a "Confirm" button to add multiple players to each unit at once.

[[Suggestion] Team Sheets]

Currently, we can have 3 tactic slots. Could it be made so each slot could have players assigned to each position independently.

If I have one slot with a 4-3-3 set up with a preferred 11 and then set up a second slot with 4-4-2, you end up with players out of position. It'd be much easier if we could set up each tactic with a preferred 11 for the preferred tactic.

Obviously in matches, if you changed tactic, players would move position but for creating tactics, it'd be much easier to have team sheets for each.

[[Suggestion] Bulk import training schedules]

Please add the ability when importing custom training schedules to select multiple to import at once. I can't find another way other than to click every custom schedule I have, then save it to make it available in each save.

Once imported, please make it so these can stay across all save games instead of having to import for each save game.

Please also add feature to enable to manage training schedules so we can add our own groups of schedules. I use different training schedules for my first team and youth team/s so would be handy to have a first team group & youth team group.

Feature already exists I hadnt been able to find it

[[Discussion] Manage Youth Teams]

It'd be interesting if allowed to work as a youth team manager - particularly for longer term saves where you start off low and build up.

Few features different from managing first team:

• Being given first team players by first team manager to use (Returning to fitness, out of favour etc.).
• Players being called up to first team.
• Potential to be given first team job if first team manager is sacked (caretaker, permanent) which may accelerate career
• First team manager may enforce tactics/style of play, may allow freedom.
• Transfers - Linked to first team managers style of play - suggest/request targets based on the manager/clubs preferences/may allow freedom to suggest any targets.

I think this would add an interesting dynamic.

[[Suggestion] Cancel Shouts]

Make it possible to cancel shouts. Quite often I choose a shout to try and get team going only for them to go and score and my subsequent shout going on to dishearten/annoy my players.

Also I'm clumsy sometimes and click the wrong one which is on me but ability to cancel would be nice

[[Suggestion] Youth Staff Views]

Can you make it so it's easier to view youth squad staff like previous versions. Currently, you click to view the staff and for the 1st team, you can bring up a more detailed view with contracts etc. and hover over them to see their stats.

But for youth squads, the only way to be able to this is to take over training or something similar to present the youth squad tabs in the left hand pane. Previous versions (pre development centre) didn't do this and it was much easier to manage staff for youth squads. Currently, you can only view it like so:

which makes it much more difficult to evaluate staff - you have to click onto each staff member individually to see their stats. You cannot break down each area. 

[[Discussion] Staff Depth]

On the World Knowledge screen, it'd be useful to be able to hover over/click into a county and it brings up a menu displaying which scouts have knowledge of that area, the amount of knowledge and perhaps their attributes too.

This would make it easier to develop your scouting network and world knowledge.

It also be useful to break down your coaching staff in a similar way - when assigning coaching, if you hover over a particular coaching area (Defending - Tactical etc.), it brings up a menu of your staff that are the best at that particular area.

You can compare their star ratings for each coaching area and target what you need to improve. It could look a bit like squad depth options currently but for coaching roles as opposed to positions.
