Unable to Move or Substitute Players in Team Management (Some Teams Only)
Game: EA SPORTS FC 26 Platform: PS5 Game Mode(s): Kick-Off Squads: Custom (many player transfers made manually) When managing certain teams, players become locked in their starting positions. I cannot move them to the bench, reserves, or change their on-field positions in the Team Management screen. The game leaves them in default positions and ignores substitution or position changes. This happens consistently after loading the game. However, this problem does not affect all teams — some teams still work normally Working normally: Latium (Lazio), Chelsea, Werder Bremen Bugged / locked: Arsenal, Inter Miami, After editing multiple teams (transferring players in/out, customizing squads), some clubs become uneditable in Team Management. When attempting to: Swap a starter with a bench player Move a player to or from the reserves Change a player’s position manually …the game either does nothing or resets to default when I back out of the menu. This persists even after saving the profile and restarting the game. It appears tied to the team sheet itself — some clubs’ team sheets are now “frozen,” while others behave normally. I made numerous manual player transfers before this issue began. Importing or creating new team sheets does not always fix the problem. It affects both default and custom tactics. Other players on the forums report similar symptoms — possibly related to team sheet corruption or squad data issues. It's horrible, that one of the most important features (CHANGING PLAYERS IN A SQUAD!!!) is so bugged. How can that be? Why isn't something like this fixed right away?375Views3likes2CommentsEA FC 26 | Team Management Issue
Whenever I try to change a position or substitute someone in team management, the game locks the player in the position. I also cannot move players to the bench or the reserves, it leaves them on default. This happens whenever I load the game up, and it's really annoying and I have no solution to this. I will send an attachment to show. If any of you guys have a solution to this, please let me know, as I believe this is apparent to only PS5.5.5KViews20likes23CommentsClassic Squads made Team Management even worse
We all know by now, that Team Management (tactic, formation, transfers...) is completely broken and useless. And we all know you don't care about fixing it (although you did alreaday in EA FC 25, but didn't care enough to do the same in EA FC 26...) because it's isn't a money grabbing cash cow like Ultimate Team i.e. ...but nevertheless people are disappointed, suffering, remorseful, because they did spent a lot of money on a unplayable game. So to add something to the countless unawswered threads in this forum, I have to say, that Team Management got EVEN WORSE since Classic Squads have been introduced to the game. The problems so far have been: formations couldn't be changed, sometimes they did through intense work-arounds, but most of the time, they didn't and if you edited to much, an CE-108255-1 occured; you couldn't change positions of some players, they were stuck in their positions; you couldn't transfer some players...because they have a "role" in their squad? because of the national team there in? because of some random stuff? because of an corrupt database you don't care to fix? Nobody knows.... ...AND NOW - in addition to all of that: you are limited the amount of players you can transfer of Teams who have a Classic Team. For example: You can move Mbappe out of Real Madrid and transfer him to Monaco (if you're lucky and no other random bug occurs). But after that YOU CAN'T move Carvajal because it says the Classic XI can't have less than 18 players. Which could be worked around if you could add players to Real Madrid Classic XI (or if removing a player from the real club wouldn't remove them automatically from the Classic XI...), but you can't do that. In conclusion: you didn't lift one finger in trying to fix (OR EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE!) a problem that makes this expensive game finally playable for countless people who bought it, thinking they could use it, NO YOU MADE IT EVEN WORSE! Everything is a scam nowerdays and you are, too. Thank you for absolutely nothing.134Views0likes10CommentsEdit Teams and Kick Off mode are broken functions of EA FC26

When I logged in yesterday I had many players and evos and other season premium pass rewards waiting for me. Since, I have not been able to access that part of the game for a while I guess it just redeemed it for me on its own. However, the there is one Evolution that I am unable to redeem and because of that I can’t open any other packs. I play in PS5 platform but I tried to redeem it on the companion app as well. In both places it’s causing an error to try to redeem this Evo reward from the season’s pass. I have attached some pictures about it and I would truly appreciate some help with this matter since it’s truly affecting my progress in the game.439Views13likes22CommentsSkipping match intro making me lose connection to my opponents
When I go into a match, I like to skip the intro but for the past 2 days when ever I go to skip the intro I lose connection to my opponent and then get taken back to the squad screen this has happened in all game modes apart from rush. So I'm not getting to enter matches because of this bug.5Views0likes0CommentsUnable to Claim Premium Season Pass Rewards
Just got the premium pass upgrade and held 'claim all' to get all the newly unlocked rewards, but the premium rewards for the last three levels (23-25) are showing as unable to claim despite having the necessary season points. When I hover over them the requirement pop-up is showing "-2,925 SP To Unlock" or "-925 SP To Unlock" etc. Seems like I have no way of claiming these rewards which I specifically paid for the pass to get, would appreciate some kind of fix/advice soon.131Views3likes3Commentsfuture stars academy evo not showing up
