I have this question too. Think there used to be an option in Training > Rest > Go on Holiday (or something like that). My players who have just come back from summer World Cup duty need a rest. However does rest simply mean the same thing now? Maybe that's why the option no longer exists...

Apologies if this has been posted previously. I have just started devising my own training schedules for my Man Utd save rather than relying on default options from my Asst Mgr. I wondered what others thought was the best way to approach the domestic fixture break from a training point of view. Obvs many first teamers will be away on International duty but there'll be enough squad to play a friendly or two. But what about the balance between rest and normal training? Have people approached it as a kind of pre-season in mid-season? Conscious there'll be a fixture crush afterwards so goal is to keep players match fit without knackering them. Thoughts?

Had a penalty decision go both ways too but never seen a goal stand in open play when it goes to review. Agree with OP that it’s probably not even coded in.

managed to win the SPL in season 3 by 1 point. Have spent my CL windfall on lots of regen potential wonderkids. Risky I know but trying to lay foundations for career save as well as get some more quality HGC/HGN players. Oh and Harry Wilson in his 3rd season on loan to us from Liverpool is beasting it out wide on both flanks

Brexit is becoming an issue in the game too now - way the dice landed I've had a hard brexit. Strict WP rules means I can only sign established internationals and mediocre home-grown Scottish players command a ridiculous premium. I know it's the same for all SPL clubs but my plans for European dominance are definitely hindered. Just out of interest - has anyone NOT had a hard brexit in FM 17/18 or 19!!??

great effort by the Jambos - looking forward to this 3rd season as extra Champs League places up for grabs for SPL teams. Third of the way in to the season now but Celtic juggernaut shows no sign of slowing down unfortunately

In the second season in my game, Celtic drew just once and won every other game.
In the third season, by December, I (with Hearts) am 9pts clear of them, with them having a game in hand. They've lost all their good players. Rangers are more competitive this season.
Good to know - they have sold a few of their best players now (Edouarde, Ntcham, Tierney) but with tons of CL cash every year the replacements are decent and squad is deep. I've managed to overhaul most of our deadwood with a net transfer gain although wage budget is creaking. Playing 4-2-3-1 gegenpress with line up season 3 of:
Bialkowski
Tavernier
McCrorie/Katic
Barisic (despite his continual moaning)

Jack
Arfield

Patrick Roberts (signed on a free)
Ravel Morrison
MIddleton

Morelos or Trotta

So I am in my second season as Rangers and I just have to say Celtic are relentless and ridiculous! I got 92 points last season and was way short of winning the league and this season I have won 31 out of 35 games and feels like I have been on loads of long winning streaks, I'm on 95 points with 3 games to go and still 3 points behind with a way worse goal difference!
seems like I will need a 100 point season to be in with a chance of winning the league, mental! Has anyone else had this as Rangers manager? Dosent help when they spend 70m each season and we have peanuts. Barisic is a beast at left back 17 goals this season from there!
I'm totally with you on this. The Tic had a 33-5-0 record season 1 and I was well off the pace but managed to win both cups and get to the knockout stages of Europa League so really decent first season with, as you say, no money and a shed load of long term injuries. Season 2 and I win 33 games, draw 4 and lose 1 (against the Filth) but it's still not enough because Celtic go W34 D1 L3 (all 3 defeats v us!!) and I lose the title on goal difference! In what other league in the world could you have that sort of record and still finish 2nd? What really hacks me off is the rest of the league are so sh1te they cannot ever take any points off them. Wondering if this is just an impossible challenge......

Loan players' managers complaining
in Football Manager General Discussion
Posted
Apologies if this has been raised already - couldn't see a thread on it.
I have several players loaned to me on my Schalke save. They are all playing, mostly if not every match in their agreed position yet I get several inbox messages a week from their managers moaning I am not keeping to the agreement. This coding interaction seems to have tweaked a bit too far. They're all playing, getting regular minutes and occasionally having to fulfil a slightly different role. The complaining seems unjustified, excessive and definitely not realistic.
