I'd like to see individual instructions for oncoming players to be savable so that there is less tinkering during substitutions that has to be done.

ie/ in the tactics screen at the top of the indivual instruction page there is a drop down menu where you can set position to DMC,AMC, etc etc. IF you could have presaved individual instrutions in there to then when a player comes on you just pick his instructions you have set up prior to the game.

The reason that I want to do this is that every player has different attribitutes to another so when a change is necessary I like to fine tune individual instructions to suit the oncoming player. This provess would be aided great by the concept of savable instructions for individuals.

i was saying this before '07 was out! as was cleon iirc. if its not in 08 then i doubt itll happen! which is a huge shame because it would enhance the game greatly!!

damn you no edit

it should be savable for all players though! not just a set to instruction.

I agree. I have brought it up last year as well. It's something I'll keep bringing up till I see it in the game.

Assistant Manager assessment during a game, on demand. This would be very handy for those new to the game.

Another one: Within the game changing from one formation to another (442 to 451 for example)is not recommended during the season as it confuses the players.

Yet in real life sides change formations regularly. For example Man Utd started with a 433 the other day but then changed to a 451 or something to protect a lead they had.

However in the game we are advised not to do this since it has detrimental effect on the side. You can see here that there is no parity between the game and real life in this respect.

So an idea to work around this is to stipulate perhaps at the beginning of the season your designated formation but have another that you your side can also train in for circumstances such as i mentioned above.

At present within the game you sort of have to keep the same formation and just make it more defensive or attacking depending on what you need to accomplish. This inhibits you when there are scenarios such as losing two strikers to injury and being forced to change formation.

I just hope they don't make the game too confusing for newbs etc. Us guys will enjoy any extras but bare in mind a lot of people are struggling with this version of the game.

I think SI should keep things simple and 'bring back the love' for the game.

Don't worry mate. Thats what the forums are for - to help you out.

We certainly don't want SI stagnating and just regurgitating 07 out again.

It's no use having a squad full of star players without a decent way for them to play their football.
