Malarkey73 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 The year is 2027 and Newcastle United have a 51 man first team squad. For their upcoming Champions League match 23 of those players are unregistered. Most of those have played none or a few matches this year and are very unhappy. About half of these players are earning ~100K (e.g. Kepa Arrizabalga, Malcom, Lucas Paqueta). A handful of the registered players have virtually no games either and are paid ~100K (e.g. Harry Maguire) I think that's broke. I know Newcastle are supposed to be rich. But I still think the AI is just broke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobblers Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 That shouldn't be happening. Perhaps AI struggles to sell players? Though hard to see many on transfer list from the image you supplied. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malarkey73 Posted December 4, 2022 Author Share Posted December 4, 2022 1 hour ago, Cobblers said: That shouldn't be happening. No I don't think it should. And after checking a few EPL teams a lot of them have vast squads of virtually never played players... (surprisingly Chelsea, Man City and Man U look more sensible) Southampton have 56! Most unplayed are ca 19-24. A few have managed to be loaned out (I guess the Newcastle players were all too well paid for any other AI team to loan.) It looks at first glance that these early 20s year old players have not played or developed much since youth. This is not really a long term save ... it's 2027 and youth development and balance is already gone AWOL. Does the update fix this AI fail? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Please upload a save to the Bug Tracker and let the Developers have a look, because, as you say, this doesn't look right at all. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
