Flashman\'s School Days Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) I have just played an Asian Champions League game against Al-Hilal and they played 6 foreigners in the starting line up. I'm sure this is against the competition registration rules as it states that you are only allowed to register 4 foreign players with 1 being Asian. As you can see in the screenshot they had Jang Hyun-Soo, Gustavo Cuellar, Andre Carillo, Sebastian Giovinco, Luciano Vietto and Bafetimbi Gomis in the starting line up. I've checked and none of these players have Saudi second nationality. Having looked into it further it also seems to be the case for a lot of other teams in the AI vs AI Asian Champions League games too Edited November 14, 2020 by Flashman\'s School Days update Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

anshide Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hello, I'd like to report an issue related to the Asian Cup Qualifier. Neither Qatar nor China should appear here: Qatar have finished top in the pervious round (a qualifier round used for both World Cup and Asian Cup, which means they will be granted a place in the Asian Cup but the corrsponding WCQ slot will be given away as Qatar is the WC 2022 host); China is the host of 2023 Asian Cup so should not compete in this round whatever position they finished in the previous round.

It wasn't deleted but maybe you have your notifications turned off and can't find it? My reply was - this isn't happening internally. I asked if you had any third party add-ons or custom content installed. You would need to provide us a save for us to work out why this is happening but it is not something we are seeing happen internally, the Asian Champions League runs normally.

dillonbarrett1997 Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I’ve noticed that the uae league has all teams only able to sign Emirati players. Is this a hard coded error? Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrissyRep Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Not sure if this is the right forum, but I can't register some players for the Asian Champions League. Playing as Brisbane Roar, it comes around to registration and some players have an N/A next to their names. This is my second season, and it happened as well in the first but I thought it was just something to do with when those players joined the team or something like that. The players who had N/A couldn't play which was a big problem because in the A-League you have a very limited squad, so not being able to play players in the ACL made some weeks tough. I can't see any reason why these players can't be registered, they don't seem to fall foul of any registration rules (They're all Australian), in fact in this second season one of the players I can't register was one of my best performers in last season's ACL, so not only is it a blow to lose him, but it doesn't seem to make sense that I could register him last season but I can't this season? I can only assume this is a bug unless someone can point me to why these players wouldn't be able to be registered? Attached is a screenshot. As you can tell, I have spots left to register, and the three players (Powell, Parsons, and Woods, plus two others that aren't in the screenshot) are all Australians.

BrissyRep Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I've discovered why they're listed as N/A, they're on a 'Scholarship Player' contract, which means they don't have to be registered in my A-League squad. I've signed one to a normal contract and then I could list him. I'm sure that this is a bug then, as there shouldn't be any reason why a scholarship player in the A-League can't be registered in the ACL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosukoi Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 FA CUP winning team cannot participate in international competition. I don't think this is a league-specific issue only for South Korea and China. I have the same problem when I try to create a nation rule for Qatar or Saudi Arabia etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying the FA Cup winners in China and South Korea should be qualifying for continental competition but are not doing so? Yes. You're right. This problem is two. First of all, the winners of the FA Cup in the Korean League and the Chinese League cannot participate in international competitions. When I see this happen, I haven't loaded any editor data files. Next, even if I set the FA Cup in other Asian countries (Japan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia etc) with basic nation rules or advanced rules and create nation rules, the winner of that FA Cup will not be able to participate in the international competition.

Troyon Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) There is a bug with Saudi Arabian clubs. Three clubs from 1st tier league should be assigned to 2nd tier league and vice-versa. Same happens with 2nd and 3rd tier teams. I know you don't offer the Saudi Arabian leagues as playable leagues, but even without the leagues playable teams are assigned wrongly.

BIG HATER Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Hi there, this might not be a bug but there were some interesting quirks in the preliminary rounds for the Asian Champions League. My team Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic F.C. finished 3rd qualifying me for the playoff. However DL Pro how finished 4th, skipped the East Second Preliminary Round and I had to play Macarthur FC. I was then drawn against DL Pro in the playoff which is against AFC rule 7.1.1. "Participating Clubs from the same Member Association shall not be paired against each other" https://www.the-afc.com/documents/afc-champions-league-2021-competition-regulations I beat them and went to the group stage regardless but it means one less Chinese club in the AFC Champs League. Again this might be due to coefficient and rankings that I'm not aware of but it seems a bit messy. Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUFAFA Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 In AFC Champions league competition regulations, "the first-placed Participating Clubs in each group, as well as the three (3) best second-placed Participating Clubs among all groups in each region, shall qualify for the Knockout Stage" (https://www.the-afc.com/documents/afc-champions-league-2021-competition-regulations)'s 8.5 but FM 21 only check 'best 3 team'. In this case, Brisbane Roar should be eliminated and BG Pathum Utd should get qualified. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
