CAE82 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 You can select a position/role in training (assuming they have at least some familiarity with that position) but you really just need to give them game time in the new position and they'll pick it up eventually.

Players don't need any familiarity, you can train a player as anything you want. Only thing you can't do is train an outfield player as a GK and vice versa. Depending on their versatility they can get pretty high positional familiarity from just training in a specific position, but match time in their new position is more efficient.

How quickly he learns that position depends on his hidden attribute versatility. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard boy Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) I’m currently training 2 players for new positions. One who’s a striker but his stats suggest he can play as a shadow striker and training another who’s a wingback has a left midfield winger. My striker has gone from awkward as SS to competent. The wingback only just started so it’ll be a few more games before he gets used to it. Edited November 28, 2023 by Wizard boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sedge11 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) I have trained Khephren Thuram as a defensive winger, and he's now 3 stars in that position (if you take any notice of the stars) and was the best player in terms of average rating for the season. As long as you give them plenty of game time in that position/role then they will quickly adapt. Edited November 28, 2023 by sedge11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can train a player in a new position, but but it won't have any impact on his familiarity at all. It will just train his attributes that are suitable for the pre-set for that position. You can play a player in a new position and this will improve his familiarity. Training a player in a new position will have no impact on his familiarity in that position.

Rashidi Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I am assuming he is referring to training a player in a new position. Perhaps should have made it clear at the outset. Plus there is a positional, duty, and role familiarity component for training a player in any position. If a player already knows the position there is no impact to positional familiarity, if a player has never played the position before then his lack of positional familiarity will lead to mistakes. How quickly he learns said positon depends on versatility. Pretty easy to verify in game with the existing UI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Training not affecting positional familiarity would be completely new to me and the complete opposite of what my memory tells me my experiences with FM have been over the years. It's nowhere near as effective as actually playing a player in a position, but I'm 99% certain I've trained players to have at least very basic positional familiarity in a new position before ever playing them in said position.

Try it and report back. In fact I will do it. (32n) Pérez. (Bal) is the lowest ranked player by CA at my club. I've already decided I'm not offering him a new contract so he will be leaving on a free when his contract expires in Dec 2035. It's Sep 2034 so there are still 15 months to test this. This is what his training looked like before. And this is what I'm changing it to. I will report back once a month until he leaves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wrong and you were right. It's 1st Dec now and this is the player in question. We don't play with DR's so the only way he can have gained familiarity with this is by training. I really didn't think this was the case but I was wrong. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
