As the game becomes more complicated and fun, it encourages you to take more of an interest in the attributes of players and the stats produced from matches and tactics.

I started to enter these into a spreadsheet to see how I could improve the team and the tactics, but of course it is very time consuming - however rewarding if done over a period of a few seasons.

So, what I'd like to have is the ability to export my team and the attributes to a file that I can then load into excel or something similar.

Equally, I'd like to have the ability to export the league table so that I can compare things between seasons (goals for, against, wins, losses, etc).

I can't imagine that this is too difficult to do, but is it something SI would consider doing? It would make the stats side of the game more enjoyable if we could play around with them in spreadsheets or other available tools.

While we're on it, can we get proper goalkeeping stats?

I'd like to see Shots Faced (on Target), Saves, Save %, Goals Conceded, Goals-Against Average, Clean Sheets, MoM, and Average Rating, for goalies.

Save % = Saves / Shots Faced
Goals Against Average = Goals Conceded * 90 / Minutes Played

there was once a third person program that you used along side a savee game editor.
you could export the data to a csv file i think and view it in excel. you could export about 20 times so basically if you had along term game you could do it at the begining of every season and sometime in the middle.
it looked pretty good as well. i wonder if there's an update version for fm08 out there?

I'd like to be able to open up tabs/windows for players in the manner that OOTP seemed to support from what little I suffered of the demo.

Sometimes you have to to a little arranging in Excel but it's lot quicker than inputting them manually.

You can't use it for Action Zones though.

I would like to see the exact number of minutes each player has remained on the pitch... not just the gaps between goals.

Oh dear god yes.

Tabbed FM needs to happen NOW!

im obsessed with oope n new tabs, so i would love that feature, i would actually love it!!!! PLEASE SI DO THIS!

retired_gwenlyn

Thanks for this. It does save quite a bit of time but the formatting that's included is really annoying.

I wonder why they included the text file option but then included all the table formatting. !?!

Also agree that tabs would be an excellent addition as would better goalie stats.

postal postie: I've followed the CM/FM series since the beginning and don't remember this. If I had known I would have loved this. If you remember more about it or find out the availability of anything similar, I'd love to hear about it.

I think it was FMCoach.

It was an Excel spreadsheet containing all Visible attributes (but no hidden ones, and "attributes", not "stats").

You would use FMScout to search for the player's attributes, and then hit "Export to Excel", and then there was something on the FMCoach spreadsheet that imported.

Last worked with .. what, FM'05? FM'06? I don't remember. It was brilliant at the time - perfect for tracking who was improving and who wasn't!
