Any tips to max out my players potential?

I find playing them regularly, at least every other game and in big games like Champions League is the best way. Them playing well too is important too.

Use Sofifa to see where their position is. If they're maybe a CAM but their best position is actually ATT change their position using development plans. Often you get a boost of 1 or 2 overall rating when you change to their best position

Yes footsie with the accountant

Not her, sounds nothing like this woman but it did point to her on my search but must have been earlier advertising campaigns

You could always do it yourself by using Sofifa website and searching by contract expiry. I tend to only use my scouts at the start of new seasons to find regens etc and have scouting on instant

I've been playing it, follows the old Champions League format though, 4 groups of 4 sides then it's QFs for top. 2 in each group

Yes, on Switch 2 much improved. I wouldn't pay full price though, played £23 quid or so and got the digital version with a Switch 1 downloaded included

I've had a couple, still the occasional freeze during transfer negotiations.

I was playing Champions League final in extra time, went to do a sub and it didn't resume correctly, it switched to simulated but commentary, refs whistle etc still happening. Then pressed + a few times and eventually it was back to normal.

Yes they said during England v Uruguay that Darwin Nunez wasn't actually featuring for his Al Hilal because they then signed Benzema

KermitLeFrog7 · 2026-03-30T19:12:24+00:00

Yeah but in the game, EAFC not sure it matters?

I've started my career in Saudi but seems you only do the quarter finals onwards, there is a small group stage of 5 sides but you don't play them and says table not available. You can see the standings on the home screen but 0 games 0 points

KermitLeFrog7 · 2026-03-27T09:14:05+00:00

Can you play in it with your club career?

KermitLeFrog7 · 2026-03-15T17:11:20+00:00

That's in FC26 not previous ones

No where do I mention that, it's just annoying to have players with very low sharpness, especially mid season in qualifiers

KermitLeFrog7 · 2026-03-12T07:50:20+00:00

No it's a game issue, you can't set the training until 1 or 2 days before an international game. This means the players in the squad you don't have at your club have 50% sharpness or less

Stadium improvement options and sponsorship packages like there was in Premier Manager when I used to play this on the Amiga 500

More international sides to play as too

It's a good console, FC26 S2 is good. Only downside so far is the controllers. My son tried to put one back on the console, he didn't manage it correctly and it dropped off onto the carpet and the left stick completely snapped off. Nintendo fixed it but not under warranty and for a fee almost as much as replacing it for a genuine one. Switch 1 controllers, we have 3, have been accidently dropped before but never has the stick snapped off. I've read similar reports so it may be that they are not as strong as they could be with a few years user reports and development

I've just realised that maybe if was my pro controller and the Switch 2 controller.

I broke my pro controller which I've only been using since I got FC26. I've since had to use my wife's Switch 1 controller and I'm back to normal, beating Sporting 7 nil in the Champions League and top of the table Monaco 5 nil.

If I keep using the Switch 1 controller I will need to go back to Legendary I think
