  1. The AI doesn't scout! They wait for you to make an offer for a player so they know who's good!
  2. Funny, but I encountered this just the other day for the first time ever. Better I think than having your board dole out courses to random members of your B team staff while denying your first team requests due to "lack of funds"
  3. You may need to select "Add Key Staff" (or whatever the option is) when setting up your game and just go with whomever you get.
  4. My personal favourite was my STARTING right back leading the charge into my office that he felt I was treating my BACKUP right back unfairly by not giving him more playing time. Ummmm...
  5. Also, you SHOULD get periodic news items asking you if you would like to scout certain upcoming competitions. However, I have not gotten a ton of results from this. While cumbersome, your best bet may be to individually scout players from the teams participating in that particular competition.
  6. Personally, I don't have a problem with players getting upset over what I've said. I'm sure it happens in real life. What I DO take issue with is that this same conversation then leads to that member of my team to be unhappy for MONTHS as a result and can lead to bigger issues inside the locker room.
  7. Following. In my full release save, my primary LW is right-footed and my primary RW is left. Had success with a similar set up in the beta by adding the "Cuts Inside" player instruction to the winger role.
  8. Had two goalkeepers within a month or so of each other break (or fracture) their lower arms while "catching a ball" in a match. For that to happen twice to one squad in a relatively short time period defies the odds, you have to admit that.
  9. I had the same issue when I downloaded a backgrounds/stadium pack. I just ended up deleting the folder with the large background images and everything is fine. YMMV
  10. I refer to my club as "Woodwork FC" if that answers your question.
  11. He LITERALLY was playing straight up center mid against Everton in the second half of the Derby.
  12. What do your scouts look like? I ask because, at age 26, this player should be at his full potential as players really don't grow beyond age 23, especially not that much. I wonder if your scouts aren't very good, so that is their way of saying "we think he's at this level, but we really don't know, so maybe he's a lot better than that?" Also, this guy is exceptionally mediocre. His corner ability isn't worth his inability to pass or shoot or play defense.
  13. I have also come to discover that the most important thing about determining if a player can play a position is not his star rating or preferences, but his attribute effectiveness in that particular role. Had a LAM who was the worst member of our squad on paper (2 stars in the Bundesliga) but he was so effective because everything he was actually good at fit perfectly with the role we put him in (IW-S).
  14. Typically, I find that when I get this message, my driver does, in fact, need to be updated. I think it just happens to be synced with Nvidia's release schedule, so it could just be coincidence.
  15. The other night, my team hit the crossbar with a shot and sent the rebound off of the post, so I feel this hard.
  16. In a match, you can find this information on the "Match Stats" screen, which you can access wither by clicking on the score bug in the top left or can be few in the tablet.
  17. Starting with ZERO experience, you may need to start in a lower reputation country. You MIGHT get a gig in Vanarama National North/South..
  18. It also matters attribute-wise. Your attributes improve as you earn more badges, so starting with none puts you with 1s and 2s in all categories. But yeah, it also makes it more difficult to start because your players just won't take you seriously.
  19. This may depend on what league you're in (my experience is in the lower English non-league tiers) but have you tried getting fringe players on non-contracts? With these, you're only paying players when you actually use them and not a consistent weekly/monthly/annual wage. There is an increased risk of them signing for someone else on a free, of course, but it's an easy way to flesh out a squad.
  20. Playing in lower league, have a superstar CB with 13 stamina getting tired in the 30th minute, even starting the game in perfect fitness. Should not be happening with a 20 year old. I'm pushing 50 and think I could last longer in a semi-pro football match.
  21. I read something similar. While the desire was to add the women's game to FM24, it isn't looking to be practical to get it right for the coming version and most likely something to be saved for FM25.
  22. Worst thing I've done in my save is accidentally initiating a team meeting. In fact, the only success I've ever had in a team meeting was at the end of the season saying "we are shooting for the playoffs. Enjoy your vacation, I'm not promising anything else right now." Anything else upsets the apple cart.
  23. The whole purpose of a loan deal is for the player to play. If you don't plan on putting the kid in the sticks, then there is no incentive for the parent club to loan him to you, because there will be another squad that will.
