Description of issue
this takes a lot of the realism out of the game: a player plays 90 minutes of a game, plays well, scores 10; then they come on as a substitute for 5 minutes in the next game (or they get injured after 5 minutes), scores 6; average rating for the two games is 8. This seems intuitively wrong, and it means I don't bring on any substitutions after half-time so as to avoid ruining my players' average ratings. In real life, a player's season wouldn't be undermined by a handful of late substitute appearances to wrap up the game, so this feels odd. Not sure of the best solution to this: ideally their average rating would be weighted by how many minutes they played, or maybe a short appearance just wouldn't count?
(I was really impressed by how FM have fixed a previous bug - where player ratings were disproportionately based on second-half performance - so I know you can do it!)
