Another vast bug, I'm afraid. Career mode seems completely broken this year.
Don't know what has been going through the minds of the develop teams, but you can be completely sure that EA didn't bother with beta testing the Career Mode with seasoned volunteers.
They haven't even fixed the player trainings yet, so that we're still unable to train players in dree kicks, penalties and curve (expect RW/LW'ers) stats, which was also an issue last year...
And the random events is completely ruining the game. None of the events are positive - just generating one silly situation after another in order to **bleep** on your game and mess with your setup.
