    little yellow marks beside some players names- what does it mean?

    Tried Google but couldn't find answer. Started my 8th season and in August and noticed some players have little yellow marks beside their names. No pattern with who has the mark and none of.them have won awards. Anyone know what it means?

    wing backs are awful since new patch

    Hi, as above. Have had relative success playing WBs set to support but since the patch I have been leaking goals all due to crosses flying in and my WBs getting ratings of 5.6-6.1. Tactics are fully trained etc. Any advice or thoughts?

    Noticing a trend with my strikers.....

    I play one up front with two wide set as IFs. Now I'm generally happy with my tactics and my strikers get themselves into the box and make chances but are very inconsistent and miss a lot, yet my IFs seem to score a lot more getting into same positions. Doesn't seem to matter what role i set for...

    Help, how to make CMs perform better..

    I play three in the centre with a DM and two in centre or I also play a flat 442. I set my central midfielders simply as CM automatic but they rarely ever play well or score ratings into the 7s. I've tried assigning specific roles too depending on player such as BWM or DLP but rarely seems to...

    My own personal info as a manager...

    So players develop stats and personalities and particularly- have favoured personnel. I am now 5 seasons in with the same team from the start and regularly praise my players and keep some signed just out of loyalty (and incidentally my player loyalty is **** too) but I have no favoured personnel...

    Midfielders all clump together when in possession how can I stop this?

    As above really, I play three in middle but when we get the ball in midfield they seem to stick tight together meaning passing is ineffective- any advice how to get them to spread out?

    Help needed with this Salernitana 451 tactic please.

    Hi so this is my current away tactic that I use with Salernitana in Serie A. First season promoted and have used this to good success in previous seasons and got two promotions using it. I stupidly deleted it by mistake and have spent a lot of time reading guides and advice particularly about...

    Buying a player but sending him back to club on loan...

    Been wanting to do this with some youth signings but the option is always greyed out when I'm negotiating a purchase price. Any idea how to enable this clause or what circumstances need to be in place for it to be active?

    How much value do you put into scout reports on potential signings?

    So I have some great scouts with high stats for the important attributes but sometimes they will still say that they don't think the player would be worthwhile signing even when the player stats are brilliant or give them a low star rating even though in my opinion they are better than what I...

    personal assistant query

    So when I go into 'staff responsibilities' and then 'personal assistant' there is an option at bottom where I can specify who I want to give me reports in backroom advice. However the people I set for each area are never the ones giving me advice. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

    Conceding goals at start of matches, any advice?

    As per title, my team always seem to concede within first 5 minutes away from home. Is this likely to be my tactics or some sort of ME glitch?

    Maybe this is what the ME is based on!?

    My limited observations regarding tactics.

    Hi, so I'm new to this site but been playing CM/FM since mid 90s. I was never amazing with the sliders and tactics but always developed my own and did fine. I have read with interest the major frustrations that people are having this year using the new tactics and how players don't do as they...
