I've been asking for better stats and tracking for years. I doubt it will ever happen. Its pathetic on these current systems that they can't/don't do it.

I have been asking also.

Back years ago 2K MLB had a great system. The Show is awful, FIFA is awful... Pretty much no excuse since 2K Baseball did it with far more stat catagories in 2011 on old gen. They also had full players stats from their whole career. Every major stat and kept yours for 15 years and kept records and ugh... If it has been done in a game like baseball no other sports game has an excuse.

EA's NHL series, developed in the same building as FIFA, has pretty good stat tracing overall. Tracks every minute every player plays, shots, hits, shifts, as well as all the normal stats. It's pretty impressive.

That is true NHL has a good one and so did NCAA series.... FIFA will hopefully someday also

We might not have gotten a lot of improvements in mm as we wanted yes. But at least we aren't playing the same generic AI every friggin game like last year. I've played about 8 matches so far and every game has been sooooo different. I am actually using substitutions and changing formations to adjust. I've seen so many animations new on FIFA this year. While I wish there was more to mm mode, they fixed youth academy, and progression.

At the end of the day. I will take improved gameplay over improved manager mode.

OMG!!!!! You can now search for players based on their actual position again! This has finally been restored after missing the last two years. No more looking at hundreds of players because you have to search CM while looking for a CDM or CAM. They also brought back the ability to search for RWB/LWB and RW/LW.

You can search by LM, RM, CDM, CM, CAM, CB. LB, RB, LWB, RWB, ST, CF, LW, RW, LF , RF. Not sure why they added LF/RF. No one has that as a their main position. But still this little thing made me so happy. So happy!

They had a way to track that last year and it was broken down by year and also had an overall page for your career. Are you saying they took that out? That would be strange...

Absolutely, gameplay trumps everything.
