Dear Mark, Regretfully, none (absolutely 0) of the feedback provided was incorporated for the Final Database update. I hope the database is reviewed in the near future. Thank you

Thanks @Mark Vaughan !! I really appreciate that you take the time to read all our suggestions. Even if sometimes they might sound as negative. In my personal case, I've been playing your games since CM2 and I just can't get the same fun with any other football management sims. Thank you so much!! P.S. I have been following a little of Brighton lately. I love De Zerbi and the way his teams play with the ball. I wish Brighton all the best for the PL 💪🏻😉

Dear @Mark Vaughan , First of all, let me thank both you and the entire team involved in the latest update. I messed around with the game and found a few nitpicks I would like to point out. Maybe they can be "sorted" in a further update. Regarding Juventus (my favourite team), I straight away noticed the latest omission of Joseph Nonge Boende once again. Which is a shame since he is one of Juventus' hottest prospects along with Samuel Iling (his ingame name should be Samuel Iling-Junior by the way), Livano Comenencia and Luis Hasa. I was sad to see that Carlo Pinsoglio was also excluded from the latest database. He is not only a Juventus fan, but also one of the senators of the team, having come through the youth ranks and an underrated gem of a person. He really keeps the locker room together through difficult times. Fabio Miretti was downgraded (which is understandable), but his favourite childhood club is Juventus. Nicolò Fagioli and Hans Nicolussi Caviglia are also Juventus fans since childhood. Federico Gatti is a Torino supporter. Mattia Perin is an AS Roma childhood supporter and not a Latina fan. Timothy Weah and Weston McKennie are best friends in real life. But that's not a big deal. The inclusion of Paul Pogba is a great move for fans of the game. Even despite his doping ban.. He is still one of the best midfielders around. I noticed that Dean Huijsen has AS Roma as his favourite club which is strange. He never ever mentioned what his favourite club is. But that's not a big deal. The players on loan playing for Juventus Next Gen (Zebre B) such as Stivanello, Damiani, Stramaccioni, Salifou are still unable to be moved to the "reserve team". Maybe list them as "Zebre B" players with future transfers to their parent clubs would sort that out. Now to the other teams: Federico Redondo (Fernando Redondo's son) is playing for Inter Miami with Messi & Co. He is not at Argentinos Jrs anymore. Maybe place a future transfer on his contract. Parthenope's (S.S.C. Napoli) current manager is Francesco Calzona (Slovakia's manager) after Walter Mazzari was sacked. U.S. Sassuolo's current manager is Davide Ballardini (appointed today) as Alessio Dionisi was sacked on 25 February. Regarding Olympique de Marseille, Gennaro Gattuso was also sacked. Jean-Louis Gasset is the current manager since 20 February. Sorry for the long text. Don't get me wrong about the items I have listed here. I have read the patch notes and it's pretty clear the whole team worked very hard for this update's release. Some of the staff changes that I mentioned happened just recently. I really appreciate your efforts in bringing us the best soccer manager simulation. Thank you.

Hello everyone! Happy new Year!! Sorry for bothering with this issue again, but just to underline my petition for Joseph Nonge Boende to be reinstated in the game, the player has just made his official debut for the Juventus' first team and is already labelled the new Paul Pogba for his impressive performance and skills in just 15 minutes of action. You can read about it here: https://www.juventus.com/en/news/articles/nonge-makes-his-first-team-debut

@Marc Vaughan Regarding the new update, I noticed that Joseph Nonge Boende (one of Juventus' hottest youngsters) has disappeared from the Database. He featured in the original database and I ask you to put him back at Juventus' B team (Juventus Next Gen or Zebre U23 in-game) with the next update. Also, I ask if you could possibly place Dikeni Salifou, Riccardo Stivanello and Samuele Damiani (players on-loan to Juventus in-game) in the B team, as they are playing with Juventus Next Gen. Finally, Gian Marco Crespi signed for Juventus B team as a free agent after the transfer deadline. But he features as a free agent in the game. Can you put him in Juventus' B team as well? Thank you so much for taking the time to read our comments and for striving for the best possible game! I am really enjoying this year's FM and I hope you can deliver us an even better game in the future. Thank you!

Thanks for the repply @Marc Vaughan ! It is an honour to have a direct repply from a legend as yourself. Regarding the questions, I will take your word for it and I believe you guys strive in order to have every possible license in your game. What triggered my curiosity was the Atalanta B license and the other 4 big portuguese teams and Juventus not having any. With regards to the graphics folder that was previously accessible for users to customise their games, are there any plans to make it available again at the Documents folder on our mobile devices? Or will it stay the same until the end of the year?

Thanks for the repply regarding Paul Pogba @Dan Sheppard! Can you please also shed some light regarding the pictures of players from licensed teams, as well as the B team licenses that I have mentioned? Thank you!

Hello guys!! I had the chance to try the new version and I must say, from what I experienced with the game and despite the Netflix complications , it is probably the best FMM yet, both in terms of its match engine and all the gameplay options it has to offer. One thing that I am really curious about and I would like to understand about the game is.. for e.g. FMMM2023 had the Juventus' license and 90% of the club's players had their pictures in-game. FMM2024 has the Juventus license and none of its players has any picture. As a Juventus fan I was let down to find this and all the difficulties to import custom pictures into the game. Can you clarify why this happens? Also, and still regarding licenses, since SI has the licenses for the A teams (for e.g. FC Porto, SL Benfica, Sporting CP and Juventus), why aren't the B teams (FC Porto B, SL Benfica B, Sporting CP B and Juventus Next Gen also licensed? I noticed a specific case (still in the italian Serie A) where this is true with Atalanta. Both Atalanta and its B team are licensed with the appropriate logo. Although the correct name for the B team would be Atalanta U23 and not Atalanta B. Another question I have trouble understanding is why has Paul Pogba been removed from the game entirely? Despite his doping ban, he has not retired from the game and is, in fact, preparing an appeal against the decision. I am really curious to understand what is the reasoning behind this. And, are you planning to bring back the Documents folder feature that allowed for an easier way to import player pictures and such? A prettier game with more pictures would make it even better.

As opposed to your fact-based claims. Gotcha

You have any proof or piece of evidence from sales to support your claim?

Hello Dan. The team at SI acknowledges that much of the current fanbase is going to boycott the next iteration of your Netflix Game right?

Hello Dan. I do not own a Netflix account and neither do I plan to purchase one. If next year's iteration is available only on those terms, I will forfeit the purchase of the Mobile version for the 1st time since 2018 and look for an alternative for my soccer management fix elsewhere. Thank you

It's totally fine Marc! I appreciate your efforts in delivering the best experience possible to the mobile users. I am just hoping that the B teams get a little more work and love on next year's iteration, as I have recently browsed many topics on this forum with users mentioning that B teams are pretty much useless for player development and that the players are better off being loaned to other clubs (such as the thread below) In my opinion, B teams should work the way affiliate clubs do for the main club and if you guys could implement this, it would make a huge impact on the game! In my opinion, B teams should work as a stepping stone to nurture future talents. So I ask you to please make it so that the B teams funcion like affiliate clubs do for the main club. And if you guys could implement this, it would really make a huge impact on the game! Also, thank you for taking the time to repply to my thread. You are a legend!!

Since nobody cared to repply the original thread, I will repost the original text. " Dear Sports Interactive, I am a Portuguese fan of Juventus that has been playing (and loving) your games ever since CM2. Over the past 5 years I have also converted to FM Mobile as it is easy to pick up and play, anywhere and anytime. I was very pleased when it was announced that Juventus would be fully licensed again for this year's game and was looking forward to manage my favourite team. I was left disappointed after I noticed that (even after the final update) the B team of Juventus (Zebre B) is not as polished or updated as Barcelona's or Real Madrid's. All of the key players of Juventus Next Gen are missing from the mobile version's database, for e.g. Alessandro Riccio, Dean Huijsen, Riccardo Turicchia, Tommaso Barbieri, Nikola Sekulov, Mattia Compagnon, Marco da Graca, Emanuele Pecorino, among others And players that are contracted to Juventus but loaned to other clubs are featured at Zebre B, such as Edoardo Motta (Monza), Federico Savio (Sampdoria), Edoardo Ghibaudo (Milan), Andrea Orlando (Monza), Luca Ventre (Alessandria), Alessio Vacca (Monza). But the most blatant omission is the exclusion of argentine playmaker Enzo Barrenechea, who has already been oficially promoted to Juventus' first squad. Furthermore, Juventus Next Gen players such as Martin Palumbo (Udinese) and Michele Besaggio (Genoa) are loaned at Juventus, but cannot be found on either of Juventus' teams and must be bought in order to then demote them to the Zebre B squad (along with Goalkeeper Crespi who shows up on the main squad roster). With all of this in mind, and in order to have the best mobile version of this amazing soccer management game, I ask you to improve the accuracy on Juventus' B team (and of B teams overall), with a more faithful rendition of the B squads as they are the nesting place for developing future talents and if you make good use of your licenses, you will create the best experience possible for us fans. Thank you in advance and I am eagerly awaiting for next year's instalment already."
