Hello, can you please upload your save file to us.
Hi Zachary,
I've uploaded the save file using the owncloud.
The save file name is - Jake Stanley - Man City - Beta (v03).fm
The current state of play is as follows. Ederson is unhappy and wants a new contract (yet to table a deal).
Rodri has yet to approach me to request a new deal, this usually happens after advancing time a day or two or three.
Cheers,
Jake.

Hello, can we ask who you are playing as?
Currently still in my first season with Manchester City.
Although I don't see why that would set the Tsimikas value to 254 million.

@Michael Sant also KDB and Rodri had a weeks holiday in November, but KDB is still jaded, whilst Rodri came back played one game and is now injured for a few weeks.

There are a lot of factors to consider from a manager perspective. Are you resting these players? Are your tactics intense? Are your training schedules intense?
It's worth mentioning as well, that players being jaded doesn't mean they cannot play. Managing the fitness and condition of your team through rotation, tactics, training, substitutions are all important elements. Most of those players are also going to be playing all internationals for their respective countries so its possible you're in a situation where they've had very little rest from game 1 to December.
I get it, I really do. However these guys are professional athletes not some random pub team players. I'd expect to see this type of game mechanic around late winter/early spring.
Non league players are part time and play 2 games a week, but don't seem to have the same issues.
My staff take control of training but at a glance its usually 2 sessions a day.
Yes, I rotate players although if a player is in a fine run of form then natural I'll select them each week just like IRL, look a Saka at Arsenal for example. He never misses a game. If I'm winning with 25 -30 minutes to go I'll usually use my subs.
Tactics are slow tempo retain possession, Tiki -Taka and Gegenpress. However I've only used Gegenpress a handful of times as the retain possession is working for me at the moment.
This mechanic absolutely NEEDS to be in the game for realism, however I feel it needs tweaking.
Cheers for replying

Hi, this is the intended functionality, whereby you will still be allowed to register a team provided you have enough empty slots to make up for the players you haven't registered.
You wouldn't be able to meet the 25 player registration limit while also having the same amount of Homegrown players as you have currently registered.
Thanks Zachary.
Another user also pointed this out to me. It's my fault for not reading or understanding the rules fully 😊

The punishment for not having 4 homegrown players isn't that you can't register a squad, it's that you can't register the full amount of players.
It says so right on the screenshot, " If minimum rules cannot be reached, spaces must be left in the squad selection".
In your case, you have 1 homegrown player + 4 empty slots = 5 homegrown players.
That's my mistake. Thanks for pointing that out.
Is this a recent rule change?
I could've sworn in previous years home grown talent had to be included.

Confirmation of players selected. Only Phil Foden is home grown at club (should be minimum of 4 players selected)

This new set pieces creator is the worst addition they have EVER made to CM/FM in the last 30 years. It has always been the easiest and most simple thing ever. Click player, give instruction. Now you have to manage almost 25 names on 4 different lists and just hope to God that none of them clash with each other, it's just taken me 20 minutes to tell Salah to stay up front when defending corners. Absolutely horrific game design, you cant even see players names where you need to see them, because they've been changed to A1 B2 etc. WOW. This is bad.
100% agree. It took me over an hour the other day to figure it out and it's still confusing me at times. Not a fan. They should have kept the old system. Fans wanted to be able to customise and create set piece routines, I think S.I misunderstood the assignment with this one.

This is intentional, you can set CB's to stay back under a different routine.
Then this is a poor design choice and needs looking at.

I agree 100%. I've now taken over set pieces because we kept conceding from short corners and an opposition player would just smash one in from range. The A.I never tried to change or rectify the situation so I've had to do it.
Pretty pointless feature to be fair. Not a fan of the "new" set piece screens either, can't drag and drop players anymore. Much preferred previous versions.

Could we have a save file prior to this issue please, if you have one? We'd be very keen to take a look!
Hi, Kyle.
I've uploaded the save file but time has now moved forward to 30th May so my inbox messages only go back as far as 23rd. What is interesting though is that having looked back the game has now registered Razvan Marin as player of the month for April, not Chiesa.
The file name is -
Jake Stanley - Man City - Beta (v03) (v03).fm
I hope this helps. The game has been crashing on the transfer screen now and then too, so this might need investigating.

Hey @The About Average Jake keep in mind that the game is going to be more physically demanding for high pressing systems this year. Depending upon your playstyle you could run into issues on this front. However, none of that prevents there being an actual issue. Can you upload your save game and then our QA team can investigate this to see if it is excessive.
Sorry, File no longer exists.
Form got worse, was 15th in the league and knocked out of the Champions League. More players ended up needing extra rest and I got sacked in Jan.
Tactics ranged from Gegenpress, Tiki -Taka and Control Possession.
Secured Mbappe on a free before I got the boot though

Ai does big transfers but rarely plays the players it buys

This has been in the game for many years now, For me, It's usually teams like Man City that spend big then don't use the players. It looks like It's Arsenal for you though.
