Hello Managers! 👋

Season 23 is wrapping up and Season 24 brings a packed update, a brand new Items system, fresh ways to interact with your players, modifier rebalancing, and a long-awaited rework of cards and suspensions. Here's what's changing 👇

🟨🟥 Cards & Suspensions Per Competition

Yellow cards and bans are now tracked separately per competition instead of being shared across everything:

• League (League + Playoffs)
• Cup (Domestic Cup + Supercup)
• Continental (Champions League + Conference League — shared, like real UEFA)
• International (World Cup, Friendlies)

So a red card in the Champions League no longer makes a player miss a league fixture, and a 2nd-yellow ban in the cup no longer carries over to the league. Yellow accumulators reset at season start; pending bans carry into the new season (just like real football). And for the first time, International discipline is properly enforced, no more sneaking back after a red card.

🗣️ Player Talks (NEW)

You can now have direct one-on-one conversations with your players from the player info screen. Pick a topic, the AI generates 3 manager lines for you to choose from, and your delivery rolls an accept chance based on the player's hidden personality. Initial topics:

• Welcome New Player — cancels the "Settling In" penalty for a new signing
• Comfort Family — cancels the "Family Issue" penalty
• Motivated — +5% performance for the next official match
• Cautious Play — silences yellow/red cards for one match (fouls still happen, very low probability of a card)
• Transfer Player / Fire Player — instant actions

72-hour cooldown per player per topic, plus a shorter team-wide 24h cooldown so it stays a deliberate choice, not a constant click.

🎁 Items System (NEW)

Items are a new reward type that can be earned and spent. The first three items live now:

• Youth Spawn Discount — % off your next youth spawn
• Training Boost — instantly add X training progress to a player
• Second Club Unlock Discount — % off the second-club fee

Items can be awarded as task rewards, and as tournament prizes tied to final position. More items will be added soon and also more ways to earn them.

🏥 Training Injuries

Players can now pick up injuries during training sessions, not just in matches. Risk factors:

• Condition under 90% bumps the risk
• The INJ trait doubles the base chance
• A higher Medical Centre level reduces the recovery time of the injury

If your squad already has someone injured, the odds of a second one in the same training cycle are reduced, to keep streaks under control. Recovery typically lands between a few hours and a day and a half.

😴 Lacking Playtime Modifier (NEW)

A new -5% match performance modifier flags players who aren't getting enough playing time:

• Triggers on players with 10+ scheduled matches at your club this season who missed 60%+ of them (minimum 5 missed)
• Re-applies hourly while the threshold holds, so giving the player a run of starts clears it
• Bans, injuries, and players already flagged are excluded so they aren't double-punished

🔁 Modifiers No Longer Stack

If a player would receive a modifier they already have active, the system now extends/refreshes the existing one instead of stacking duplicates. For example, two Man of the Match in a row in the same day don't double the bonus, same effect, longer duration.

🎙️ Press Conferences — 1 per Player per Season

Player press conferences are now capped at one per player per season. The Positive Press Release modifier (+5% for a week) was being kept permanently active by repeatedly pressing the same star, which wasn't the intent. Team-level press conferences (every 7 days) are unchanged.

⭐ DED — Dedicated Trait

A new player trait: Dedicated (DED). Dedicated players have extended careers, retirement odds are calculated as if they were 2 years younger, so a DED player typically plays around 2 more seasons before hanging up his boots. The new trait was rolled as a new trait for players ages 25 and younger, so you will find some players with this new trait already.

That's it for Season 24, its a long update, some things are still getting tweaked during the off-season. As always, please report bugs in the forum or Discord.

Good luck in Season 24! 💙⚽

Very solid update 

Very good. Great updates. 

Wow, extensive update! Great for cards separated each competition... 

oh come on, just have INJ trait, 100% condition, and got 26 hours injury just from training

Good update.

however where can I find the items and player talks?

the injury in training occurs only when you increase skill or when you rest him too?

Good update.

however where can I find the items and player talks?

@Thuru

Items:

• Click in your photo profile, will appear "Items" menu

Player Talks:

• Click on Player in your team -> Tab "Manage"  -> you will see actions.

I think it's the best update since I started playing.

However, the injuries to the youth players, while realistic, make you question how worthwhile it is to invest in them.

If their development is already limited, adding another limitation just doesn't sit right with me.

Good job really

-but for the more injury its not the right time i think. Now we need more players to cover more injury, PB is the market is lack of players (dont count over price players)

-For the talk one-to-one its free ?

-For reduce the risk of injury depending of the level of Medcial center : do you have a % per level.

So lets go but will be more hard for medium player:)

Where can I find the item menu?

Good update , I like it!

Anyway I think dat INJ players shall be very cheap because almost nobody want them.

Can be handy that high NF would be slightly more important to get less injury and very very slightly less cards

@nicmo

@Minecodersam if you rest the player he doesn't train so he cant get injured.

I checked your team and saw a midfielder with a yellow card from international competition (national team) is that it? It doesnt affect your team, you can mouse hover/click the blue "?" to see all competitions.

Ah ok thanks

I want to ask why my player got 0% experience again, despite last season play 22 games... can someon explain it? Feel like always reset.

@Blizzardo, can you send which one? I can see only striker with 0%, but he has 19.5 XP, which means very soon on 1%, experience is related with played minutes, not games, and every 20EXP is 1%

Good update overall,

Not very keen on training injuries, but good update boss!
