Can't see U20 Staff profiles
Ron Wandle commented on Ron Wandle's issue in Medical and Development Centre, Training and Finances
I now have six out of seven available U20 staff. I've been promoted now and the Reserves tab on the left has now gone and Reserves is now found in Dev Centre. Still can't view staff profiles. To do so, I need to do a Staff Search and include staff from own club in search. -
Is there a way of seeing a list of players one has manually asked one's scout to scout? I'd like to know how big my scouting backlog is.

How to assign squad numbers?
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
I've played and completed this season's Rio State Championship - which includes top-division clubs - and participated in the national cup competition. Now I'm a few games into the national third-tier Serie C division. I did a quick google on Brazilian squad numbers to see whether lack of squad numbers was a thing in Brazilian football, but couldn't find anything. I did find out that the numbers associated with particular playing positions is different in Brazilian football, which will be useful if I ever get to assign them. https://www.football-lineups.com/pics/nums/brm.jpg https://www.football-lineups.com/numbering/BR So Roberto Carlos wore a 6, rather than a 3. https://s3.amazonaws.com/charitycdn/cache/resizedcrop-1057badfe6f00f136d147db79dfd2ba5-840x480.jpg I also found out that Brazilians don't wear the number 24 for unsavoury reasons I won't go into. -
How to assign squad numbers?
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
I checked out being manager of an English Premier League club. There's a Numbers tab for changing squad numbers in the Squad view. So I know where one should be able to change numbers now. My game doesn't have this Numbers tab. I checked out being a manager of another club in my league (Brazilian 3rd division) and it also did not have a Numbers tab. Then I checked out being a manager of a top-division club in the country and it did have a Numbers tab. So maybe I'll get the squad numbers option if/when I get promoted. I don't see why one can't assign squad numbers, anyway. -
How to assign squad numbers?
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Surely, I should be able to assign squad numbers anyway? Squad numbers can be selected as one of the columns in the squad view. All my players have a hyphen (-) in this column. I've looked at other clubs in my league. They have squad numbers for this column, although they would have been assigned in the database before the game started. Players signed since the game started, however, also have squad numbers in this column. -
Changing Agreed Playing Time
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Interesting. Sounds a bit gamey/exploiting an exploit, though, which isn't my playstyle. I'm starting to get some unhappiness with the squad players that I can't reduce Playing Time for without triggering the Discuss with player/potentially angry player option. I think this is the time to use that Discuss option. If it succeeds, then great - I have happy squad players. If not, then I will agree to sell them. -
How often do Match Practice in Training?
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Isn't that what pre-season friendlies are for? (Not that one can't also do Match Practice session in pre-season.) So it would seem to be okay to do them every week then. I haven't set a Recovery session after, though. The default Training schedules with Match Practice don't have Recovery sessions. -
How to assign squad numbers?
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Where does it say that? I've looked in competition Rules tab, but there's no mention of squad numbers. I checked Brazilian top division Rules tab and there's no mention of squad numbers on that page either. -
I created a club to play as in the lowest Brazilian division, starting the game with no players. I've played for two-thirds of a year now in-game, but I haven't had any messages asking me to submit squad numbers. The players I signed have squad numbers during matches. I have the In-game Editor and it has an option called "Allow Squad Numbers Anytime", which I presume means one can change squad numbers any time, but I can't see how to do this. How do I assign squad numbers?

Are there players from certain positions that you forbid from taking corners and throw-ins, even if they have good stats for it? My current thinking is... Corners: - no defensive players (no defenders, or defensive midfielders). Maybe the wingbacks when using a back three might be used. - probably best to have the striker in the middle, but if they are great at corners and not good at heading then they might be used. Throw-ins: - only players on that flank. Gets a bit tricky if there are players one uses on both flanks. - maybe a central midfielder or attacking central midfielder if they had exceptional Throw-in stats What do you think?

How often do Match Practice in Training?
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
So you don't use it very often, since most weeks in a season will have matches? I've set it to have a Match Practice every time there isn't a game, based on a two-game week. So one Match Practice in a 1-match week and no Match Practice in a 2-game week. I notice that the default Tactical Style Training templates have a Match Practice session, but the Training Style ones do not. -
How do I set up one of the scouts to scout the opposition? EDIT: I found it in: Scouting > Scouting Coverage > Match and Team Analysis

I can't choose the captain I want
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Thanks. Fortunately, I'd set the Autosave to daily, so I can go back to the previous game day. I'd done a lot of work on training and tactics setups since then, but I should be able to redo most of it. It would be better if the captain choice selection came from players with a senior contract, rather than players in the senior squad. -
Following from previous thread, I can't choose the captain or vice-captain I want. I'd accidentally put them in the Reserves a couple of game days previously and they aren't showing up in the list of players to choose from when I'm asked to pick the captain for the season. I can pick them as Captain/Vice-Captain in the Tactics screen, after moving them out of the Reserves, but not in the message that I have to reply to.

Right-click on player and I think it's in Squad options.

Why can't I choose the captain I want?
Ron Wandle replied to Ron Wandle's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Never mind. They'd somehow got into the reserves. False alarm. Can't delete thread. Mods, feel free to delete thread, or leave it to serve as a warning to the others.
