    Michael Antonson

    Rayan Soulaimani

    Emmanuel Halleux

    Turns out the intake was better than the preview stated although it will be a bit difficult to judge due to all the players having the same potential so they are all regarded as "Elite Talent" so the three I picked for screenshots are based on the current ability of the players who have come through.Antonso,Rayan and Halleux will all be moved to the first team squad once the intra-friendly is done but I may also move up Jan Veldwijk and Simplice Makaya due to a lack of depth in the DC and DL positions.

    It's also nice to see a variety of nations represented in the intake as we had Netherlands,Belgium,Morocco, DR Congo and Sweden pop up un this intake.

     

    It's a little bit interesting that you've got a player named Michael Antonsson from Sweden. Mikael Antonsson played 28 games for the Swedish national team before and he was also a CB!

    However, my approach currently is to look at a realism approach. I try to pick my players based on their morale and training performances and then look at things like fitness, form, ability, potential etc.

    This is interesting, especially about training performances. Might have to try that out on my save, thanks for the idea!

    Another thing since you do a lot of PPM training, does that change anything in the CA of the player or is it something else?

    He isn't scouted so I can't show you exactly what he's like, but you get the idea. He's already made his B Team debut in the 3rd tier and is labelled the next Kaka. Despite being Brazilian 1st and Portugese 2nd he did come through the Academy at Benfica, (joining 4 years earlier).

    Thanks, he looks to be a solid player atleast!

    No. It’s a separate entity. One is ‘Discipline player for poor performance’ and the other, if I recall, is Criticise -> Poor Performance Last Game. It’s here where you get those specific options for their actual game play. 

    I’ve no evidence to say that it has an impact on x thing you’ve criticised, but, for me, it feels a more realistic part of that warning/fining process. 

    This is interesting, I have tried to track this on my save with the warnings and fines but I haven't found anything special. Might have to try this too, thanks.

     

    @Jimbokav1971 Do you have a screenshot of Geilson at Benfica?

    I love PPM's and I have quite a clear idea in my head of what I want players to do and how PPM's accentuate that. 

    Without going off on a tangent too much, (I have already planned to do so at some point in the future in this thread), I 'm an enormous fan of "gets forward wherever possible" for full-backs, I love "switches play" for central playmakers, and this year I have tried to do the following in this order. 

    Switches play, Tries long range passes, Dictates Tempo, Tries killer balls

    "dives into tackles" is a no brainer for those suited to it. 
    I hate "plays with back to goal" unless playing a role that specifically asks for it. 
    I like "knocks ball past opponent" for quick wide players, but only if they stay wide. 
    I have a player called Becksquita (POR) HG.  He wasn't initially called Becks anything but I changed the front part of his name because he was slow, had great crossing ability and the 1st time I put him on as a sub he took a touch and delivered a phenomenal ball into the far post for a late winner. I've never used "crosses early" before, but it's looking decent so far. 

    Places shots used to be OP. 
    Takes ball passed GK used to be OP
    I absolutely love "lobs GK" and I don't care if it is overpowered or underpowered. It's just aesthetically pleasing. 

    I think PPM's are hugely importnat. 

    Thanks!

    That's one thing that I don't do nearly enough on my save, but might have to start giving out some PPMs to my players to give them something extra.

  6. I'm only on like page 11 on this thread but I thought your whole thinking about goalkeepers taking freekicks was interesting. So I tried it on my save after my players kept hitting it in the wall or putting the ball in the stands time and time again. It only took a few freekicks before the goalkeeper scored his first goal!

    Nope. Not playing any games at all.

     

    I actually think that playstyle is really interesting. How do you make tactical changes? Do you have the same "connection" to the players?
