Sorry, I didn´t express myself properly, I meant while I play the match. At the moment, you can only have that information at half time. I meant this screen, while we play the match.

Rashidi Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 FM21 is different in that you can't analyse using these tools unless its half time, full time or post match. During the course of the match your tools are limited to what you see in the Dugout and the Touchline Tablet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means they want dedicated training for their unit. So if those are defensive players training in the defensive unit, they want training sessions where the defensive unit is the primary beneficiary. see here on defending engaged, the primary focus is Defensive unit, and the impact priority is 60%. Whereas the attacking unit is 40% of the training. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

04texag Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Where can I find more information on footedness of a player that's already on my team. I can find their preferred foot, but what I want to see is what their weak foot ability is. For example, I want to know if it's decent enough to consider training them to be either footed, or if they are just so bad at their weak foot they will always be one footed, and then maybe train them to use the outside of their foot.

I don't know if this has changed in FM21 (as I am still on FM20), but that information can normally be found in the player profile>Development>Tactics. There you can see how good or bad his weaker foot is. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Development Tab > Tactics. That's all that's been stated on player footedness. From my experience if a player has a 'Reasonable' weaker foot then it can be improved m otherwise, it takes significant effort that may not pay off. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the face of it, the BMD instruction would seem to be more suited to rather defensive tactical styles. And in some cases it is true .However, there are situations (tactics) in which the use of such an instruction can lead to tactical overkill and actually prove counterproductive. Because all elements of a tactic are highly interconnected, so there are (too) many factors you need to think about and take into account. For example, lower team mentalities already discourage creative freedom, so adding the BMD instruction could be a bit too much. On the other hand, if you play on a high mentality and use a number of highly creative and roaming roles, the BMD can sometimes be a good idea, so that your tactical setup would not lose its structure completely. Basically, there are many nuances that can make a difference in one way or the other. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I play higher DL, offside trap, force opposition outside and tight marking. My two CB-s(playing 433 DM) are fast and whenever I play against a faster attacker, he just escapes them and usually scores. What to do here? To remove offside trap or lower the DL or just mark the attacker? Do u prevent the opposition keepers taking short kicks? Always uncheck that if the opposition has a beast target man or super quick forwards and the long ball is effective I think people leave that on even when the opposition has poor cbs. Your better off letting their keeper pass short to them and then press the cbs or off their poor passes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know there is no direct method to solve this so I am curious how everyone else works with/around it? A player can improve consistency by playing consistently well. It can also decline if performances are inconsistent. By just how much it can improve, I unfortunately do not know. I noticed 1 player in my FM20 save who never had anything mentioned about Consistency (so it was average) and eventually (after me struggling to get the best out of him) the coach report mentioned he's "fairly inconsistent", so it declined from where it was.

I would assume this works too, yes. --- An inconsistent player in FM is a player who often doesn't play to his full ability. It doesn't indicate how well he will perform. How good he actually is, how well he's used etc will all contribute to the actual performance in a match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

frank_olaf Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 In my first team Coaching Responsibilities view I see u23 coaches as well as my regular coaches. Do the u23 coaches perform in the same way as a regular coach, in terms of time and effort they can provide? I just want to check because I have a u23 coach assigned to one of the training areas and I don't want players losing out because the u23 coach actually spends more time with the u23 team and less with the first team. Any advice on how this works would be much appreciated. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
