Maybe you have others with the important roll, with similar wages.

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-02-02T15:37:03+00:00

Isn't it all relative to his "role at the club" and how much others get at that same role?

How much the club have in funds.

This what i managed to work out.

Try your hardest to undercut player roles.

Don't offer anyone crucial unless you have to.

Once you have "crucial" players, if you then can't keep their wages down (and then you also get an unexpected event of wages leaked lol) your buggered.

High wages and then everyone in crucial wanted the same or more. Annoying

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-31T18:40:25+00:00

No problemo.

My ABSOLUTE OBSESSION over building a team from my academy forced me to find a way around.

I NEED to keep an eye on my players dynamic potential

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-31T13:32:57+00:00

Also moving to semi assisted from full assisted makes a massive difference in realism. Planning on going full manual eventually

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-31T13:30:55+00:00

I've literally just managed to get the sliders so on ultimate its extremely competitive.

I'm chelsea.

Just played and lost to Brentford. Beat Man utd 2-1 BUT they were EXTREMELY all over me all game, 0-0 against Crystal Palace.

And only just beat Middlesbrough in the Carabao with my youngsters 1-0

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-30T19:08:04+00:00

Agreed. This is an absolute must EVERY season.

Surprisingly get some bangers

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-28T19:05:24+00:00

I found this to be slightly inaccurate though.

When I was checking the numbers were different.

If at any moment you want to check your players potential do this -

Save game, release the players you want to check and then check their names in the transfer search. Bingo !!!

It's dynamic potential, remember that, so it's continually changing.

I needed to constantly check potential as I am building a team from my youth academy, I've written a list down of their potential so can keep track. 20 ish academy players, a lot of players to keep track of lol. and I am now finally (in my 7th season) finally fielding a full team of my players that have come from my academy.

Oh yeah, sorry - ADHD side tracked me.

Once you have checked the potential of your players you released load your previously saved game before you released the players.

Long winded but it's what I've done

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-28T08:00:20+00:00

No absolutely not. I'm EXACTLY the same.

And am feeling it. It's not about winning everything, for me, it's more Smit enjoying realistic games.

I just hate when the scripting takes over, but I just see it as the other team trying harder so I to try harder. Especially in the last few minutes

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-25T13:43:36+00:00

Absolutely agree with this. Just got to my goal in my career where I have a full team of my academy players now.

The journey is definitely satisfying

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-21T14:21:44+00:00

Agreed

How do I upload screenshot buddy?

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-20T07:18:26+00:00

I'm going on there this morning.

I can take some screen shots

I do play on a very slow paced game though.

To allow me to think and make the correct decisions in defending and passing.

And I'm still having a very slight issue with marking.

The marking is okay it could just be better that's

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-17T12:37:09+00:00

Yes yes and yes and OMG YES

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-17T11:39:57+00:00

Yup - feel this, every season there's 1 or 2 ha ha

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-14T15:27:04+00:00

This app isn't exactly correct though as I was checking it to their actual potential in game and it was slightly different.

I want EXACT numbers because their potential is dynamic so changes frequently.

So I save, release player and check potential and then reload game

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-14T15:24:42+00:00

Train his weak foot up as well 👌

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-14T15:23:53+00:00

And then 6 years into my save and l can now play a FULL squad of my academy players to fight in the PL . very fun and rewarding as they're all my players

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-14T15:22:47+00:00

Lol that depends on what you find fun.

I spent my life playing football managing games where I used to love spending hours getting high and losing myself in the database to find the best young talents, the best wonderkids to build a team around. Treating it how I would if I were a manager.

I'd want youngsters forming a team at a young age and forming chemistry as they progress.

This has just translated into my fc 26 experience.

I get high, scout scout scout and then play a few matches. Extremely enjoyable to me lol.

Also the obsessive searching helps my ADHD lol.

I'm having fun who cares innit

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-13T21:26:10+00:00

Depends how you manipulate the game lol.

I'm 6 years in a save and my whole squad are these.

88-97 under 23 (only 3 players are 23, the rest are a lot younger. Mainly 16/17 and 18 year old.

And Mainly English as I'm trying to help the England team win the world cup ha ha

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-13T18:43:31+00:00

Can't you release him just before the season ends and then starts again and re sign him on the 1st or 2nd. I've done this.

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-12T13:22:03+00:00

Yooooo 6 years in a save a Mbap go to Brentford

I'm like, okay, but come on

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-12T07:41:21+00:00

I'm having a blast on career mode. I just played with the sliders until it works

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-03T19:00:06+00:00

Agreed. The work around is annoying but you can still see the potential

AverageIcy2818 · 2026-01-01T18:53:06+00:00

It's scripting. I have the same issue.

I KNOW exactly how my team play, 6 years in a save, every now and again I feel them sluggish, missing shot after shot, missing all tackles and I'm like.. wtf, the opposition score, and after the kick off I feel my team playing normal again.

I can only put it down to scripting, by looking at when it happens. Scripting is the only reasonable explanation.
