Saviola is well known to be rubbish on CM0102 considering his attributes and CA.
I've always thought the match engine (heavily) favours strong strikers with a lot of jumping and heading when it comes to scoring goals (in the best leagues). Saviola... does not have those qualities...
Not so sure about Heading, but definitely Jumping, along with Off The Ball, Finishing. I made a player with low CA and PA and only about 5 or 6 high attributes (including the above 3), and he was basically Tsigalko Part 2.
Reminds me to ask.
What is the difference between the stats Positioning, Off the ball and Anticipation?
All three seem to be "act without ball" stats.

Yes
how?

Is there a patch for dynamic league reputation?

How much does making a position visible make it more likely for the AI to play a player in that position?

I know it depends on the makeup of a squad but for example if you had someone with centre 20 and right side 15, if you amended right side to 14 instead would the chances of seeing them play on the right be reduced considerably or is it negligible?

My latest spot on "son of an ODB legend" watch;

Alfonso Montero, 16yo D RC at Juventus (R)/October 2023. Son of original Juve stopper, Uruguayan rock Paolo Montero.

You'll get some players where their position rating exceeds their visible and they are a lot better than the alternative. They do need like 13-14 not visible in their sides rating. Oyarzabal played a lot of games at AMC a couple of updates ago for having 14 for Centre and their being standout for the position.

One thing to note, if a player has 20 free role and the AI tactic has 20 for right back, anyone with 20 free role will play right back regardless of their position if the manager has 18+ for free role. So a striker with 20 Attacker and 20 Free Role will play right back. That's why you sometimes see forwards playing Sweeper on the ODB and in some updates.

Hey team,

Just a quick question here regarding positions with the arrows. If you've got a MC with an arrow pointing to the DM or AM, should you pick a player who can play both positions? Which position should you regard first (ie. pick the MC and then slot whichever one is best suited to DM or AM in there) or doesn't it matter? Or do you pick a DM who can play MC (15 or higher in position) over a pure MC? I'm just not sure what the best way to go is because I have arrows everywhere and I dunno if I'm picking the right way.

It doesn't matter. A player who has 20 MC, 20 DM and 20 AM, can play in any of these 3 positions and with arrows for each of these positions. And a player who has 20 M, and DM and AM 1 (pure MC), will not be better than one who has 20 M, 20 DM and 20 AM.

I wonder what the hell is going on. It sounds like a brag, I know, but look at this.

I had to play a backup DMC because of injury and he scored Man of the Match, so I kept him in the line-up.

The last 10 games, he's was MoM 7 times.
In the last 7 games, he was MoM 6 times.

And this is a DMC.
I don't know if I've ever seen such a thing.

I've wondered before but now bored enough to ask - how come the order of teams before the season starts is always fucked up (i..e not alphabetical) on the updates? It's not like you're renaming teams or anything...

I’m pretty sure it’s only England - Scotland starts alphabetically and I think Italy does too

Uh... apparently winning the League Cup qualified my Forest Green Rovers team for the UEFA Cup.
Is there going to be a problem that I am listed as semi-professional?
When does a team turn from semi-pro to pro? Or does it not matter at all??

Shouldn't be a problem at all. I won the UEFA Cup with Newry, a semi-professional side.

I've installed the max speed patch for match commentary. Occasionally a match will stall mid commentary and not progress. Is there a fix for this?

Having a bit of a brain dead moment here after so many years away from playing.

If I sign a player with a transfer containing payment after x international games. If down the track I sell that player before they manage to play the required number of international games to trigger the transfer clause, will I still be on the hook for the money down the line if they manage to play the number of games while at a different club?

Eg: I sign a player that has a clause of 5m owned once 40 international games are reached. They go on to play 20 international games while at my club before they are sold elsewhere. They then go on to play another 20 international games over the coming years while at another club. Once that happens will the 5m clause I had agreed upon when originally signing them be triggered and deducted from my budget?

Something to do with the index not sorting properly. We use cmdbsort on the database but I don't think it can update the 'required' clubs

No, Use 200x speed instead.

Ah right, not a problem obviously, was just curious really.

No, it's only appearances they make while at your club.

On that flip side, you are also not getting paid if you sell someone with that clause and he is sold before making his x number of appearances.

Situation - I've 65m in the bank and the board will allow a maximum transfer fee of about 6m.

Question - Is there a way in game to increase the percentage of total finances available to spend on a single transfer fee?

Certain countries / teams (eg Bayern Munich) are set up that way. If you read through the patches thread, there’s one for this ‘problem’ although I’m not sure it works in every league. As you say, it’s for a single transfer fee so you can spend £6m multiple times.
