Hope that means they've fixed the random boot forward from kick off.

I thought that that was what the pointless passes was about? If not then that fucking sucks.

Surely that's a tactic of play though? My Charlton team did it while probing for a way through, if they've not fixed the kick off issue it's an absolute joke.

Nope, a lot of people on the SI Forums have noticed that regardless of strength of opposition and tactics, it's something that happens on a regular occurrence I even brought it up earlier in this thread. Had garbage opponents tippy tappying it around with ease as if I was playing Barcelona

Oh I agree shit teams shouldn't be able to pass like Barca, but pointless passes between two cm's surely doesn't fall under that category. If they're cutting you open with it then it's an issue, but that's not pointless passing.

If they're cutting you open with it then it's an issue, but that's not pointless passing. It is if they're not bothering to choose other obvious options like knocking it out wide, back into defence or, if they've got a high creativity stat and been given high creative freedom, attempting a riskier ball to the striker(s) There's too many slow, boring, 10+ pass interchanges between the same two CM's, that's what SI are hopefully cutting down on

The patch is out now and there's some really positive feedback already
Won't get chance to play it tonight as I'm off to bed

I honestly haven't had much of a problem with the cm passing, my 3 man midfield at Charlton did it but they were always working the ball looking for the forward pass.
The one that annoyed me was my poacher coming deep and playing with his back to goal for absolutely no reason when I have an attacking midfielder in that position.

What highlights mode do you have it set to though? Key or Extended? Because after switching mine to Key, it was happening far less for me
Not that it matters now the patch is out

Doing really well in the Prem, but can never seem to carry that into the Champions League knockout rounds or cup competitions. Teams I would easily beat in the league always seem to knock me out. Also, agreed to sell striker to Real for £25m in November, (I'd got him on a free ;D), so I sorted a deal to sign a striker from B'ham as a replacement. A week before the window opens, the bastard breaks his leg in a reserve match and will be out for the rest of the season

Having a bash with the update now.
Hopefully I can be a bit more consistent.
10th towards the end of the season, media prediction 13th. So not too bad, would normally have done better first season on old FM's. Just can't seem to get anything working consistently.
Got some great players of frees though in July, and I'll have a bigger budget to work with so I can push on.

Holy fucking shit. I know we have improved our youth facilities, but I've just had an intake of youth. One was 'potential to be the best player of his generation'. Looked at his profile. He's 16, already got some pretty good stats, potential is leading premier l;eague defensive midfielder.
Never happened to me before!
I don't know what to do with him yet, having a DM is useful, but I'd rather have a CM or CB. He's got good tackling, determination, concentration, technique and passing. What shall I train him as?

Category 1 and Coates summer insistence on the youth academy being paid more attention means Stoke will take it a bit more seriously now in terms of getting good youngsters through, however, under default AI management Pulis will never utilise them lol.
