One thing I miss from previous versions

[tessl]

The ability to filter the search for transfers or free agents based upon transfer fee and/or salary. Playing with a budget challenged team that is a good way to filter the search for players who fit within the confines of the budget.

Agree!!!!!!!!

Re: One thing I miss from previous versions

Yeah, me too. I know what they were trying to achieve with the global transfer market scouting system, but all they really did was make manager mode pretty tedious in that regard. I almost wish there was a way to have the CPU handle transfers and contracts for you (like in every other sports game) so I could just play the game and not waste so much time with those aspects.

I wish we didn't have to scout FA... I get scouting players in the rest of your league and the world... but the FA, I dunno you should be able to sign and see their attributes.

At least allow a way to filter through them besides age and position.

Yeah that would be nice.

Yeah that would be nice.

even if they didn't do that let us send a scout to look for free agents so we don't have to manually search through them one by one which is really tedious.

Yeah why is my scout too busy to check out Free Agents? honestly, my first couple of years I have to rely on FA because I don't have a ton of money for transfers, so the cost is a bit lower.

Also, when getting a full scouting report on players from other teams, why doesn't it end up showing the OVL? It gives me their transfer fee and thats all I have to gauge with the other attributes, which I am getting better at telling who is good and who is not, but it really sucks we don't have some of the basic attributes already revealed to see if we want to scout the player.

If you want to scout free agents what you have to do is not send one of your scouts out to a country. like if you have 3 scouts and send one to eangland, one to say france and then the third you leave alone, then you go to free agents and scount any player your interested in. this is what I do.

I think it should work like this, you send a scout out, he brings back player X. you then ask him to scout player X(it should be no means take 30 days), after about 1-2 weeks your scout says "hey boss heres the report on X." you get the same info you do now. you then say"I would like more info on player X" the scout goes back out and 1 week later you know all they is to know about player X.

this way would make way more sense to me

Re: One thing I miss from previous versions

I miss being able to see the OVRs of teams I'm about to play against. So often I'll play a game and feel like I'm being screwed over by the CPU when in fact my opposition is better than me. Example, I played Leicester City as Rangers, with Victor Andrade as my ST. I had shot after shot blocked and I'm thinking, "damn it, I'm getting screwed!" I look on SOFIFA and it turns out that Leicester is 3* compared to my barely 1.5*, and Schmeichel is 73 OVR with 74 diving and 78 positioning!
