There's a frustrating problem with club visions. Let's use set pieces as an example. If you make the most out of set pieces in your first season, they will ask you to make the most out of set pieces... forever. You're the one that made the team solid at set pieces, they didn't want you to be solid at set pieces when you first joined. Same with being solid defensively, playing entertaining football, etc. No matter how well I do and how much they love me, I just can't negotiate the club vision at all because they made being good at set pieces a high priority, so it's a non-negotiable. It's stupid and unrealistic.
Hate this, have a good defensive season and now the board wants you to play defensively every season.
If your a team that elects presidents then it is more likely to change when the president changes, but not being able to negotiate is terrible.

There should be an option where we declare that we intend to leave a club at the end of our contract or that we will explore our options.

goals and apps on loan dont count towards milestones?
signed a player on loan with a mandotory
he scored 25 goals for me in the league whilst on loan
he has 208 goals for me in the league many seasons later
my all time record was 182 goals, i thought this was broken because it wouldnt update despite me seeing that my striker had surpassed this
when he scored his 208th goal i got a commentary saying new record league goal scorer
so the 25 goals scored on loan did not count ?
Little things like this FM has gone backwards on in recent editions, despite big improvements in general year on year these small details being constantly overlooked despite being simple errors as well as taking away things like pre/post match milestones, exact dates on milestones and manager history are very annoying

What's wrong here? You scored on 1 good chance, and missed the other. Nothing out of the ordinary IMO..
usually 1-1 draws dont have me praising my players as they played well.

One thing that Ive noiced over the last few editions of FM is that AI Managers getting sacked or keeping thier job is difficult to predict in game, whilst a manager leaving a club while doing well for another similar club(sideways move) is almost guaranteed.
Im currently in my 4th Season managing Lyon in Ligue 1 and won the league with 105 and 103 pts just pipping PSG who managed 100+pts too even though they were runners up, then in my 3rd season they left me as i could only manage 90pts and this season i though i would be left again as i only managed to sign 1 player who was an improvement on my starting line up and generally cant compete with most clubs to sign top players and cant use the sign out of favour talents i used in my first couple seasons, which is no longer possible due to most clubs in europe having a much higher wage structure then mine...
however PSG are struggling 12 pts behind after 14 games and currently 4th in thier CL group with 1 game left
Pochettinos job is STILL Secure
this would not happen in real life... PSG currently are trying to replace him and he is miles out in front in Ligue 1
and many clubs hold onto managers who dont win anything for 15+ seasons just because they make CL every season on some saves
but on the other hand on another save game he might win Ligue 1 then 8 games into the next season he gets sacked because he is 4pts off 1st in 4th wih a game in hand or something stupid like that
and it happens at many big clubs especially with high reputation managers like Guardiola, Simeone, Klopp etc..
very random

Just went unbeaten in my 3rd season with Lyon and won the league. Near post corners are definitely the biggest issue in the game imo, Lorenzo Lucca had 50 league goals alone for me.
feel like lyon have such a balamced side
made 1 signing (squad player) and im flying through this league
already beaten psg away convincingly
in general last few FMs if you start the season well its very easy to runaway with the league if you have a decent advanced forward and solid defence and play with a combo of high press and posession

Am I the only one having an issue with the touchline table resetting after every match? I want the opposite team formation first and my stats next to that, but every time it resets back to my formation and their stats.
didnt notice an update happened until i thought why do my my stats and oppos keep swapping

Transfer offers for young players are so stupid. I'm a PL team and I'm getting endless insanely low offers for my u18 players. Why would a PL side ever sell a promising (or even not so much) youngster for 23k €? It makes no sense. And what's worse, it's not a one weird offer - they keep coming all window long. Stupid.
this is so annoying

Using the squad filters, they are hidden when "not at club" is ticked, but show up when "unavailable" is ticked. Asking assistant to pick team/subs therefore includes them.
brought this up, surprised it made it to the main game.

getting some great results mainly down to having built a bit of momentum and squad moral being up but my possesion based tactic is somehow proving to be a great defensive tactic
only conceed 1 goal in the first 6 games as villa inc playing city(a), arsenal and chelsea(a) my XGA is only bettered by arsenal, spurs and united
no defeats but so many cards for some reason 20 yellow and 1 red
been fined twice already

Not all transfer bids are public. I wouldn't be surprised if early enquiries for players are WELL below the player's perceived value before they ever become public.
Even if this was true the player also wouldnt know about the bid.
Also lets not forget players have big egos and would much rather be known for breaking the transfer record then going for 1/4 of their valuation.
