Notes is not good, I plan to leave the scout report available if you had it before buying. It will still get automatically deleted after 3 seasons (that’s what I think is the expiration today).
Price lowered to 50M, which imo is a bargain for a gold star with such good stats…
Hi,
the Player -> Traits page has a small bug. This page does not allow you to organise the players list by ‘Class’.
It is the 3rd main reason to look at this page, so would be nice to view players by their class.
Thanks,
Hi,
If I buy a player I already have a scout report on, can you please not delete it?
So frustrating. Especially as the coach report is not capable of providing the information on the secondary skills (assuming my scout report includes that).
Maybe just dump that info in the Notes at time of purchase?
I haven’t managed national teams for a while so I don’t feel your pain. That said, I can definitely understand how things like average ratings and recent stats would help in the selection, but traits would be mostly useless for national squads, with few exceptions of course.
p.s.: lately you have been giving us lots of ideas and providing important feedback, thanks for that :-)
We are definitely missing out on lots of great retired player statistics! I’ve started doing something about months ago but abandoned the idea to start something else (don’t remember what exactly but I’m pretty sure it was economy related).
Hi,
I manager a mid level ranked country National squad. When I replace players, would be handy to have more information onscreen to be able to make better decisions:
- country rank the player plays in
- Average Rating
- main statistics from the current/previous year:
– Goals
– Tackles
– Assists
- Traits, including the stupid ones
I seem to be going backwards and forwards, and find it inefficient to work out who to move into the team. The process is:
- find the worst guy in a position
- click replace
- select a new guy
- try to find him in the players screen
- check the average rating, see how bad it is
- open up his stats
- work out his country rank
- decide if his stats are good enough
- work out if the player traits are shitty
and repeat the entire process a bunch of times
Just thinking the replace player list screen could add some extra information to make it more efficient.
Thanks,
With another Liverpool player in the World Team of the Season, and now that he is retiring, I would love to have link to a Liverpool Hall of Fame Page.
Will be great to go somewhere and see the great Liverpool players of the past, and their statistics, awards, history, etc.
I guess other teams can have their own Hall of Fame too. I suppose…
Yep, I have assumed what Dimitri said. However, letting me send a scout to go check out a dude, on my team or any team, would be a great start.
Bah, party pooper
Once again, Liverpool’s finest, Matteo Giovannetti, is the deserving Keeper on the World Team of the Season!
Without Matteo, Liverpool would barely be mid level in the Premier League. Throughout his career, he has dominated in the most adverse of circumstances. Matteo has constantly held up the Liverpool Defensive unit, the Midfield and me the coach. Simultaneously Matteo has repeatedly given the Strikers a chance to make a difference in each and every game, including receiving Assist statistics. Matteo does it all!
Thank you yet again from the entire Liverpool family. Matteo’s Liverpool Hall of Fame credentials are already set, and I plan on convincing him to play another year!

Dimitri is correct in terms of averages, but there is no guarantee on the final result, even from scout results. I’m keen to take a look at what can be done to the way players improve and the use of coach/scouts, but it’s definitely going to take some time.
Nice bug! Unfortunately I know for a fact that a player will never get to 101 in any skill.
Thanks for reporting.
I assume that if the player has 75 shooting and 70 speed and coaching give him 85-95 shooting, speed will become about 80-90. In other words, I assume that there is not much difference in gains for the different stats. Haven’t checked how accurate that is though…
Lowered the price to 75M
Hi,
if I employ scouts, would be great to use them to give me accurate information, lest what is the point of having them?
Adding the ability to provide more information for managers is a good thing. Yes, it adds to the workload of being a manager, but I prefer to have the opportunity to be information rich.
If I get a youth player who looks like someone to retain in the squad, I currently have no idea about his secondary stats potential. Seems weird, as I can use a scout to tell me about secondary stats.
But being able to direct my scouts to look at a certain player, team, league, country, rank of country, etc seems fair. All I hear in this game is ‘its what happens in real life’ when I complain about getting stupid, unnecessary negative traits on players, so making the managers ability to focus scouts like real life seems reasonable.
Evolution Stage
This player still has a lot to improve and his main skill may reach 101-100

You’re not the first to say that coaches give you less info than scouting…maybe coaches should actually give you a view of improvement for each skill? Or maybe total number of improvement points expected across all skills?
Scouting specific players used to be an option in the past and we can definitely bring it back following the same model of other scout reports: you request it and wait for completion. More scout search options should not be a problem either, they haven’t caught up with later additions such as player traits.
Why do i know less about my players potential stats than i do players i can scout on other teams?
I only see my players main position potential stat, whereas i could set my scouts to search for players across multiple potential stats.
Also, why cant i send a scout to look at a particular player, rather than just let them go randomly?
Can i get more scout search options? Search for good only, search for not having particular negative traits, search for players in particular country ranking levels?
Regards,
From what I can see the team can still handle it for now. We have other mechanisms in place to balance CPU team finance if need be. Thanks for reporting anyway.
Thanks for the links above, at least now I have a pretty good idea where to look for the bug!

The substitution rule was Wuttke to sub in at half time at 45min mark.
This is just crazy! After I fired Ivan Mora he already had 5 new teams and now he will be sold to the 6th one.
Looks like getting rid of a wrong piece of clothing… :-)
The season is only halfway so I go for 10 new teams this season lol.

Currently there is no way to have more formations, I’ll add to our TO-DO list.
I noticed that it’s not possible to make more than 7 formations. I would like to make more, is that possible? Even willing to pay Rubies for that right.
This might be the single greatest improvement that can be made.
Home match…in other words nobody is penalised.
Does a cup final count as a home match or away match for pressure handling?
