Bit disappointed with this update. I always like to get a World cup and a European trophy. I understand that international management is a bit of a joke since you can win 99% of games for 3 years then get drawn the best team in a quarter final. Lose a close game and it's immediate sacking. I always thought adding a bit more context into the board decisions of international management would improve it. Or least fix the issue where every top flight manager who doesn't win the trophy gets sacked. Not wholly concerned about weight, I always assumed it functioned similar to height whereby it would determine boundaries for attributes. In height's case it is a good barometer for jumping reach for that player. For weight I assumed it might be tied directly to strength but loosely affect the limits of other physical attributes, e.g. a heavier player might be less agile or slower. Though I don't know if there were any studies done on that metric. Anecdotally you can kind of see this by just looking at those attributes. If Tubbs Lardy has an acceleration and pace of 6 at 16 he probably isn't going to be fast at his peak. Likewise I always find players with a 5 in jumping reach with blistering pace and acceleration. Finding a good mix of both in regens is like gold dust, with Haaland proverbially taking the cake in that respect. In the case of the low jumping reach guy they are probably below 5 ft 6 and the slow guy is on the heavy side (or tall and thus a higher weight) I think displaying height and weight is useful for those that mask attributes so removing one is a bit annoying but I can also say from my point of view I've never looked at their weight in any meaningful way.

Does anyone know what the CA is of the Luton team? I'm newly promoted into the Premier League with a ~CA 120 team. Would like to know if the Luton results are comparable.

I have been very impressed with WOF 424 P103 EC FA. I started a game as a newly promoted Vanarama North/South team, using HGF BAL SP 451 P110 EC (99 Sub top Arsenal). The team managed to just scrape 1st and promotion to the Vanarama National, the following 2 years were a struggle in the Vanarama National with long periods of poor play. Following a bad 2nd season in which the team regressed, i switched to the WOF 424 P103 EC FA. I easily won the Vanarama National, then the following season the same team broke the historical record for points in Sky Bet League 2. @knap I noticed for Goalkeepers most use SK (S), could you explain the benefits of SK (S) over SK (D), is there any major noticable differences? I'm currently setting them as SK (D) as i'm concerned with the poor decision making attributes in the lower divisions lead to the GK's making more costly mistakes in the Support role.
