| Substitutions and more |
Planned substitutions
As of today you will have the option to decide substitutions for the matches. You will find a new tab on the tactics page called ”Substitutions”. If you click on that tab you see a page on which you can add substitution orders. You can choose which player to replace and which player to replace him with after which minute and under which conditions/standings.
Player out:
The player that should be replaced. This drop-down list is filled with all outfield players that are currently chosen for the starting eleven. You will also find the options ”Worst performing defender”, ”Worst performing midfielder” and ”Worst performing forward”. Choosing that option will replace the worst performing player in that specific team part.
Player in:
The player that should replace the player out. This drop-down list will contain all outfield players that are currently chosen to be on the bench. No goalies are included in either ”Players in” or ”Players out” as that would possibly be an option that would be misused.
After minute:
In this drop-down list you can choose after which minute this particular substitutions should happen.
Condition:
The drop-down list will contain different conditions that must be met for the substitution to be done. Conditions will be checked for each minute after the time chosen in the "After minute" dropdown.
You can add as many substitution orders as you want. You can change the order of the list by drag and drop the entries in the list. The orders will be considered in the order they are in the list. So if there is a contradicting order lower in the list then that order will be ignored. A team can never do more than 3 substitutions during a match no matter how many orders the manager has entered. All added substitution orders will be listed on the "currently saved" page.
The substitution orders are match specific so you will have to set new orders for each match. Players substituted due to injury will override your manually set substitutions.
You cannot plan substitution of your goalkeeper in competitive matches. But this will be an option in friendlies.
A substitution will only replace a player on his position. The formation used will not change.
Automatic substitutions
For those managers who don't have the time or energy to plan substitutions but still would like to do some substitutions in the match to give the players on the bench some playing time, there will be an option to let the assistant coach decide the substitutions. This option will be found on the tactics page as a simple checkbox. If you choose automatic subs then the tab ”Substitutions” will disappear and all substitution instructions added manually will be disabled for the match. It is either automatic substitutions or manual substitutions. You can't have both.
The assistant coach will decide substitutions more or less always choosing to replace the worst performing players with the best choices available on the bench who prefer the position that the worst performing player plays in. He can also sometimes choose the best player on the bench and then choose to replace the worst performing player in that position that the best player on the bench prefers. He will somewhat consider the standings and not spend all substitutions too early in the game. He will only make substitutions in the second half.
Youth Academy
In your team menu you will find a new page called ”Youth Academy”. This page will contain a list of your talents that still exist in the game with information about what skill they had when they came and what skill they have today. You will also find the setting for which type of player you want as your next talent and the information about when you received a talent offer last time.
VIP-members will find this page on other managers' teams as well as their own. But on other teams they will of course only see the list of talents.
Smaller changes and adjustments
Show form reduction when over-trained
On the training reports and the player's page you will now find that you can see how many form bars the player's form was reduced with when the player was over-trained. Previously it just said ”Over-trained”.
Increased the frequency of recommend players
Currently the teams have received mails about recommended players about once every two weeks. Now they will come at least twice as often.
Added a session holder where you write press releases
A common problem for those who write long press releases has been that they tend to be logged out from the site while writing the press release. We have therefore added a session holder that should prevent the user from being logged out while writing a press release.
Newly created teams in private leagues more in level with the existing teams
When a team is created in a private league the team's players will be more aligned to the average skill of the players in the league's lowest division.
The custom shirt search has been made easier to find shirt in correct colour
When VIP members search for a custom-designed shirt it has previously searched the both the primary colour and secondary colour. Now it will only search for primary if that is wanted and secondary if that is wanted.
The youth coach can no longer be wrong about a talent's skill
Previously, the youth coach has pccasionally been wrong about the player's skill. This will no longer happen.
Warnings if you forget to save changed tactics or lineup
If you have changed anything on the tactics page or lineup selection then you will be warned if you are trying to leave the page without saving.
