The Bridgford Ram

Has anyone else noticed that players seem to accrue international caps in games you aren't told about in the International Round ups (or appear in their statistics on the career stats page)? I am managing Derby so have some players playing for minor nations - Nathaniel Mendez-Laing (Guatemala), Ryan Nyambe (Namibia) for example. In a season and a half I have seen reports on 2 appearances for Mendez-Laing, his stats show two games, but his cap total has gone up by about 15. Is this linked to the fact that there are no details available for minor international games? (edit - I have since edited this in preferences)

During my first season playing FM24, I seemed to be given recommendations before every game - suggesting team changes, tactical tweaks etc. I am now in the pre-season for the 2nd season and these seem to have stopped. Have I done this, or is it just something that happens?

I've now got my save I started in the demo and want to continue with it. As I have only really played CM0102, and even that I played the original version, I don't really understand updates, packs, etc that you can add to your version of the game. Are there any I should definitely do (to correct team names like Man Utd, Napoli) and add photos, and any others I should consider? I'm starting from a position of no knowledge here.

Cheers for that JWC, maybe it was because they were my early competitive games, if I ever get good enough to have important matches I'll see it again :-)

Hi, over the last couple of weeks I have started playing FM24, and upgraded from demo to full version today. I have lots to learn - especially because apart from playing FM12 & FM14 for a bit 10 years ago I exclusively have been a CM0102 player. My first question of many is, when I first started on FM24 my board and the clubs fans told me their expectations for each individual game, but this has now stopped (I am only in November 2023). Does anyone know why this is?
