Manager Career Mode issues (compiled)

Thought having a compilation thread as such would make it easier for EA (if they can be bothered after spending most of the year fixing/changing/improving Ultimate Team) to review, ones I've picked up so far:

Matchday experience:

  1. Removing of the pre-match team line ups, cutscenes, music etc
  2. Substitute benches should be 9 players, not 7
  3. Wrong manager sometimes being followed on the new Manager Cam
  4. New commentary team unavailable in Career Mode
  5. Teams always shoot the same way (option to choose needed)
  6. Some kits not available in Customise screen (Tottenham 3rd kit for example)
  7. Referee POV cam - when red card is issued the referee shows a yellow card
  8. AI puts players out of position regularly
  9. At half time sometimes there is a cutscene loop which you can't escape so have to restart the game
  10. Teams should shoot towards a preferred end in the second half when at home (Chelsea towards 'The Shed', Arsenal towards 'The Clock End', Tottenham towards the 'Park Lane/South Stand' etc etc
  11. After match let us see results of other games in the league for longer

General:

  1. The length of career mode is set too short overall still
  2. Date disappeared from main landing page in Career Mode
  3. Coaches causing a freeze/crash when fired
  4. The training plan (sharpness/fitness) doesn't work well
  5. Pre/Post-Match interviews still ask irrelevant questions
  6. Manager objectives are unreasonable and unrealistic and can get you fired even when playing well
  7. Ten Hag's face is missing despite being in Fifa 23 (Postecoglou face also not real yet but may be as new to Premier League)
  8. When winning German Supercup in manager overview it says "final" instead of "winner"
  9. The Dutch & Portuguese Supercups are missing (may be others too)
  10. Kit sponsors are missing in some countries
  11. Supercups are not counted in number of trophies won in Manager Overview
  12. Generated youth players have a 2D picture with the wrong kit on
  13. Shirt sleeve sponsors incorrect when promoted/relegated in English Premier League/EFL Championship (also when winning cup competitions)
  14. PlayStyles too rare on Youth Players (may not be any)
  15. "Let the training plan do its work" email comes too regularly and is unnecessary
  16. Number of characters available when editing a stadium name has been reduced and is way too low
  17. Editing a players sleeve length doesn't always work
  18. Create a club - can't use the new kit options in Clubs
  19. Create a club - selecting a rival should let you pick from any league, not just the one you start in
  20. Players complain about not playing enough when their role is 'Sporadic'
  21. Players complain about not playing when they are out injured
  22. Loaned in players get constant complaints if they don't play every minute in emails from parent club
  23. No option to see how many minutes our loaned out players are getting
  24. No option to turn off the objectives as they can ruin the mode
  25. Player morale can drop too much in one go from Press Conference answers
  26. AI teams should player weakened squads in certain competitions (early rounds of Carabao Cup for example)
  27. When simming there seem to be far too many goals late in the game if you start to sim from a comfortable position (ie. 3-0)
  28. Youth academy names are way too limited and repetitive
  29. Custom tactical visions are penalised permanently
  30. Players being subbed late into games handing in transfer requests
  31. Two Hummel kits are identical in Create-A-Club
  32. No new badges in Create-A-Club and some even removed
  33. Option to save an avatar to re-use again in another save
  34. Long sleeves don't work on Nike/Puma kits
  35. Morale system doesn't work - too many players get unhappy to easily

Transfers:

  1. Not been improved/changed for years
  2. Can be really hard to sell low-rated players when a high rated team
  3. No loan options such as mandatory purchases
  4. AI making unrealistic transfers regularly
  5. After a few seasons AI not signing big enough squads
  6. AI sign too many players in the same position
  7. Sometimes when offer accepted a random background of the pitch is shown during the cutscene
  8. When signing a player it's impossible to negotiate a lower squad role
  9. Music cuts out in cutscenes
  10. Players signing pre-contracts will join in the winter transfer window (gamebreaker)
  11. Skip cutscene for players signing/leaving needs implementing
  12. Sign players on one-year contract but can't negotiate another year so teams sign them on pre-contracts and I don't have options
  13. During contract renewal, players never want an extension

Please do add as many as you can to this thread and I'll try to make an effort to update this if possible!
