    Uncomfortable on the ball is largely down to how much players want to retain posession and are comfortable with the ball - so yeah its largely related to them being under pressure, so a defender who has that trait is likely to just lump the ball away when put under pressure because he doesn't have the confidence/ability to do otherwise ... the technique is important because it can cause a player to be under pressure more easily, ie. I'm an amateur defender, when I (cough) control the ball from a pass often that means it ends up a couple of feet away from me, this gives opposition players more opportunity to close me down than a more technical player who might have it instantly under his control etc.

    (does that make sense?)

    Yes it does, thanks 👍🏻

    I like the "(cough)". Ha. 🙂

    RSeven is largely correct - that is down to 'dribbling' and 'technique' .. basically how comfortable someone is on the ball under pressure, I'd also suggest making sure players have good decisions if you're trying to play that way.

    Ok. Thanks.

    Are we saying that the 'uncomfortable on the ball' trait is just when they are under pressure from the opposition then?

    It wouldn't happen but, for clarity, if you had a whole team that had the 'uncomfortable on the ball' trait, but there was little pressure from the opposition then you'd still be able to effectively play a control possession type style?

    Diving deeper into the game mechanics and underlying algorithms?

    This is closed source proprietary system, so no source code.   

    What you can do is play game scenarios 100 of times and grab the data, then analyze it to understand the underlying logic. For example: how the training impacts to improve layer attributes etc. But it is time consuming. So, what sane people do is play and enjoy the game.

    Has to be CM 01/02 for me, which came out during my first year of uni away from home, network games across the dorm were classic.  The game was epic, and at a point in life where had so much free time to study, or rather, play CM!  

    I still look back to Italia Manger 1993 which was my intro to the series.  A solid 1-0-5-5 formation banged in the goals, and with a friend we could complete a season one afternoon. 

    Italia 93, yeeeees. Sampdoria. Pagliuca in net, Ruud Gulit + David Platt in MIDs, Mancini up front.

    Happy Days

    Ooh, do you mean CM 01/02, or the Xbox exclusive CM 02/03?  Both were/are awesome!  Back when I didn't have a PC of my own, I got an Xbox for Xmas with CM 02/03 and got really heavily into it.  It was brilliantly ported!

    CM 4 was that year on PC of course and I eventually got heavily into that and CM 03/04 also. :)

    02/03 Xbox bud.

    I've used CM since the very early days, like 93/94 I think it was, and the 02/03 Xbox was was truly the best imo.

    Hell, we weren't fortunate enough to have our own PCs / Laptop a piece and **** back then were we. When I found the Xbox version it was amazing.

    Ha. 🙂

    Who's your go to signing?

    I don't have any at the moment as I always start saves as low level teams so take whatever players I can get thats better than I have but once over on a few older versions, might even have been the CM days, there was a guy I would sign for any team in any league even when starting with top teams, he was called Scott Huckerby and played for some non league team and could be signed for about £5k. He was a winger and had 3 good attributes, Pace, Acceleration and Dribbling, I think all 3 were 18+ and whether it broke the match engine I don't know but he was an assist king at any level, defenders couldn't handle him. I never see people talking about him on threads like these so maybe he was a more unknown player but he was always my first signing at all clubs.

    Spot on 👍🏻

    Paul Brooker. Also from the cm days, got him for peanuts, beautiful dribbler, had opp defenders on toast

    They are what Marc said, but maybe this will explain it:

    1. You might get extra budget after beating a big opponent. You get message after the game saying "The board has made an extra $X available to you". It's not huge and if you've got enough money through transfer dealing etc, then you probably don't need this - but it can make the difference if you're budget is tight, especially if you go on a run where you string a few giant killing games together. I looked for a screenshot of this, but can't find one.

    2. It can help your players level up. We're talking the little jumps of green on the progress bar after the game. Not only can you get more for a game against bigger opponents, if you are playing in a low league you may some players who have the "Needs to play at a higher level to progress" message on their training screen. These players can level up, but they are too good to ever get better playing at your level. No little jumps of green for them! Except when they play higher level teams in the cup (or ITN games etc). 

    But you know this is a game and you're supposed to enjoy it. If you don't like cup games, put out your worst players, stick your striker in goal and change your formation to 0 0 0 5 5 and you soon won't have any cup games to annoy you! 😀

    Are there any actual examples out there, where a minor club (and I'm talking national league north / south) has benefited from competing in the the major cup competitions?

    In my experience, where I tend to career manage at the lowest level possible, I have not seen any actual benefits - In fact the cup matches just seem detrimental. I'm hoping to be corrected here as I'm quickly falling out of love with the game, feeling this way for at least the last couple of releases I'm afraid..

    I'M LOOKING FOR ACTUAL EXAMPLES PLEASE!
