Reduce the needless clicking in the "Available first team players for Under 19s match" inbox notification

I was recommended by a moderator to post it here since this is apparently intended behavior rather than a bug.

The most useful parts of the "Available first team players for Under 19s match" inbox notification is hidden within the dropdown bars at the top right.

Not only does this in itself require one more click than last year, the menu also closes after selecting a player, so to make multiple people (but not all) available you have to repeatedly open the menu further exacerbating the issue. Additionally the menus could be enlarged to require less scrolling.

In comparison the FM19 one was much more user friendly.

A new feature it seems in FM20 is limiting how much time a U19 player plays for a game. This is done by entering the List section and dropping down a menu, then selecting the desired time.

Yet after selecting one of the options you get sent from the List section to the Pitch section, so like above if you want to select it for more than one player you have to repeatedly enter the List section adding pointless clicks.

I'd suggest not closing a menu the user opened or sending the user to another section he already clicked away from.

What a great addition to FM 2020, always hated the old way of doing it. :)

SI, please don't take features away.

Are you talking about the addition of being able to limit a youth players game time, or about the notification for selecting the U19s match squad?

I just want to say I'm not arguing for the removal of anything, except the needless clicks to perform actions that was previously done with less. Ostensibly the primary purpose of the notification is for making senior squad players available for the reserves or youth teams, but the function for this is very small and hidden away in the dropdown menus in the top right. With the menu closing every time a player is made available, depending on how many players you want to make available it might simply be quicker to use the squad view instead.

I can't think of a reason why I would limit my U19s players game time, but for those who can, it is currently very cumbersome having to switch to the List section every time you set a players game time because the game sends you to the Pitch section. In fact, for some actions, depending again on the amount of players, it would be quicker to simply go to the U19s squad and use the menu that pops up from right clicking.
