Personally, I think those names are hilarious and awesome. It would be cool to start a journeyman career at somewhere like "Eleven Men in Flight" and then try to move up from there. However, I appreciate the limitations within which the mobile developers have to work.

This is cool. I would like to understand it better. Is there a thread about it other than this one? Is there an explanation somewhere else? Thanks for any info.

Is that version 14.4.0 ? I will give it another try and see how it goes.

Sometimes if I am starting a save with a lower league club, I want to speed through the first season with a focus on scouting because I know I am going to be clearing out the majority of the squad and replacing them with free agents the following summer.

An advantage of making this a paid option (aside from generating revenue) is that the developers could track how widely used this option is. Personally, I enjoy watching my players perform and would actually appreciate the chance to simulate a full match every now and then. That said, I can appreciate what other people are saying about wanting to save time and focus on squad building. This is a good discussion thread with a number of interesting points raised.

Unfortunately, this closer to my experience. The last 7 or 8 mentorships that I have set up have ended in a bust up. They were all partnerships recommended by my assistant, so I would expect that at least some would have been successfully completed. Often they fail pretty fast, too. I have stopped using mentoring in this career. It is not worth the discord that it creates in my squad.

I am playing as a lower league French club (St Malo), so I often pick up youngsters to train up in hopes that they can improve and wither be sold or (if I can keep them) improve my club. In my first few seasons, I have tried mentoring 8 or 9 youngsters and most of the time the partnership ends in a fallout between the mentor and the "mentee". I am using the recommendations of my assistant and only trying partnerships that are predicted to work out. Is this something funny with the game (mentoring has generally worked pretty well in the past) or maybe I am doing something wrong? Anyone have any advice for me?

I am using a Samsung Note 20 Ultra.

I have had this issue with 14.3.0. Hard to send a save game since it hangs during saving. This is an intermittent problem. Also, the saving process actually works, but you have to close the game and restart to continue playing.

Another thing (save-related) that I have seen with the latest update (14.3.0) is that some time when you do a manual save the game hangs. Fortunately, the save works, but you have to kill the game and restart when this happens. I am using a Galaxy S20 Note Ultra, so not the latest and greatest, but still a decent processor. Anyway, just an FYI. Since it locks up and only occurs occasionally I can't submit a save game to demonstrate the issue.

Yes, that is a bit counterintuitive, but seems to do the trick. Thanks!

I just hired a tactical analyst for my club and want to assign him to scouting the opposition and preparing the crouting reports on them. I have two scouts. How do I make sure that it is my tactical analyst and not my youth scout who is monitoring the upcoming opposition?

Thanks for the clarification Marc!

I agree with you that inverted winger seems to be the closest to what you want from your forward player. I am confused about you wing backs. Are you wanting your wing backs to underlap or overlap? Should they go infield to combine with you inverted winger or do you want them to go outside your inverted winger to provide width when the IW cuts infield? I always thought inverted wingers acted a bit like central midfielders on offense, which is why I have never used them very much.

I got these cash infusions in FM22 a few times and as I recall the cash showed up soon after the message. Maybe that has changes in FM23?
