Also this is obviously extremely niche but CONCACAF just released the full fixture list for 2022 qualifying.

Hi,
Would it be possible to get a CONCACAF Olympic qualifier in the game in early 2021? Currently the game doesn't have one until the 2024 Olympics and just defaults to taking the US/Mexico for the 2021 Olympics. There is a qualifying tournament that was supposed to be played in March but was suspended.

Been reading a bunch of stuff about training cycles and how training should be set at three month intervals (or more) to increase the chance of strong player growth.
My question is - does that apply only for individual training (ie positions or specific attribute training) or does that also apply to the general team training? Right now I try to switch it up bi-weekly between general/tactics/ball control and although I have been rather satisfied with the overall development of my team, wondering if it could be even better.

How is tactical familiarity determined in international management?
I currently manage Canada and Toronto FC. I run the exact same trio of base tactics, mentalities, shape, PI/TI, set piece instructions etc at both. My Canada squad currently has 12 TFC players of which 8 are in the starting lineup, yet the familiarity is 'awkward' (about 33% full), while for TFC its perfectly fluid for all three.
Obviously I'm not expecting fluid, but I'd think accomplished at a minimum based on my heavy club reliance (and the fact that I've called basically the same squad for two years now so the other players have also had 20-ish matches over that time span with the tactics.
I guess the follow-up is, does it even matter?

As for my question, what's the difference between the 'creative/disciplined' and 'stick/roam position' team instructions? If I'm trying to create a tactic where my team pretty much bunkers and sticks to the 4-1-4-1 formation and really only breaks from it when a clear counter-attack opportunity presents itself, which one of these is the more important one to set (or both?). Also should I be setting my team instruction to 'counter' or 'defensive?'

A stupid question I have about the new tactics creator... What is the significance of the width of each bar in these screenshots?
Basically just sets the the baseline for each PI. Setting 'close down less' on the second screen would still result in the player closing down more than setting the same instruction in the first screen because of the overall team mandate to close down more.

Cool thanks
So if I want my AML to get more touches, would the best way to do so just be to tell my team to exploit the left flank in the team instructions?

Checking in with a really dumb question as I haven't really played seriously since FM '09
Where do I set someone as a playmaker or target man? Or is that long gone?

The plan for the Canadian league is to eventually go to pro/rel, but there's not enough markets to support a full league system now (especially considering the three major ones are already occupied by MLS and would struggle/are struggling to support a second team). Can't exactly have pro/rel if there's only eight teams in the structure.
