I would have thought that if a mentoring group included a couple of influential player from the core social group and a couple of non influential players from one of the other social groups the non influential players would eventually move to the core group.

Marinho Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Been years since i used it, so ... Does the Target Forward actually still trigger changes in play of other players (as in actively looking to hoof it to him) and semi-related: I remember that many moons ago one could determine via an option to either 'feed' him via high balls or ball played to his feet. Is the current role more a mix of both dependent on the player ? And will other take that into account ?

Do like the idea of having that different look to switch things up and was looking at a few 'flawed' players with interesting attribute distribution like Jonas Wind who saved Sheffield United from relegation with 17 goals and 8 Assists and feels like a nice realistic transfer for an Europa League team.

Bakiano Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I have a question regarding loan transfers. If you take some player on loan, you pay 100% salary, some monthly fee and put an optional clause and you also put some installments. Will you start paying those instalments when you activate the optional clause or you are paying no matter you activate the clause or not? I think I know the answer but want to be sure.

Hopefully it will be fixed soon, yes, although I am bit disappointed about the normal release, it seems very few things were changed compared with beta. About the HOYT, most sources (articles, forum posts) about youth intake mention his personality and that he influence it ; not sure about skill but with my current one (and this is my 4th run with the same club), first after beta, I keep getting unambitious players although he is professional.

Marinho Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Got my first really good youth intake, especially excited to get an attacking prospect (and given the 'measuring stick' is likely Raphinha, who is amazing, his 4 1/2 stars likely means he's very talented indeed) and wondering how best to iron out a couple of his lackluster attributes. Definitely has decent starting attributes, but some notable outliers for whatever role he should play. Ideally will want to play him centrally at CAM, though might well be that i play a different system by the time he's ready. So, how do i go about it ? Set a individual role (in training) that adresses weaknesses ? Do this + an individual focus to work on weaknesses ? Set only the position + individual focus ? Also have a fullback with gobs of potential but pretty slow pace for which similar questions pop up (as an aside: Utterly forgot, but do U18 players grow in height/jumping reach ? Might also make a good Ballplaying CB or alternatively a defensive minded CDM/CM) For reference, this is them: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'm using a 4141 possession-based tactic, relying on the principle that the formation is the defensive shape of the team, and as far as I can see, players don't stop pressing, but managing FC Porto, I'm in late October and, all competitions, the only goals I've suffered was a 0-3 defeat against Man. City, a draw 1-1 against Benfica and a victory 2-1 against At. Madrid, all the rest are clean sheets. My point / doubt / question was in a sense of replicating the Guardiola's 6 second rule: press and recover the ball, if not so... regroup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
