    As said before I can't really contribute much through the app because of the demand on resources.

    I'd still like to contribute some general points but I admit these issues might be due to the small screen issue.

    I find the disconnect between Commentary and Live Action unhelpful. Since, I'd assume, the commentary and live action are built from the same source I'd like the option to have both on.

    Since Offsides feature prominently now they should be reflected in the Match Statistics.

    Highlight more prominently the starting position of the ball when highlighted action starts.

    I'd also assume that the changes to the Free Kick (FK) statistic were due in part to the imminent arrival of the Live Match action. The FK count now includes all direct and indirect FKs (except I think Penalty Kicks (PKs)).

    While I recognise that counting all FKs is more representative of the overall action it adds nothing as a management tool. To have 2 stats (Fouls & FKs) reflect what is essentially the same thing is a bit silly/wasteful imo. It actually takes away from the assessment of our FK Takers.

    PS. I'd prefer the partially useful management tool/feedback of 'the Big FKs' be reinstated to help assess the effectiveness of our selections (FK takers order); Offsides to be counted separately to help assess the effectiveness of our Orders (Play Offside Trap); and additionally an icon included in Highlights to indicate where something is part of a FK or CK event.

    PPS. If its too difficult to include a new Stat for Offsides then a option is to include them in the Highlights section of Game Statistics, although thats a no-go if the 'count' could be high.

    OFF TOPIC Disclaimer: *blah* the new app raises these *blah* not my fault

    If the animation is anything like the you tube examples then technically you are NOT getting an animated live match...just a few selected highlights with the usual T11 commentary at bottom.

    Now heres a thing....have you watched your own game on 2 or 3 pcs at the same time on friends accounts....the variations in text commentary for the same match are horrendous.....e.g. 'the goalie parries the ball..(blah) , lack of confidence' and 'superb save from the keeper' -both for the same piece of action........this happens many times during the game.......no wonder Nordeus can't give us a true animated version of the game.

    Well firstly yes we know its not the full game, just like the commentary is not the full game. Imagine the speed that an animation would have to run at to provide it all in 8 mins. (And the memory demands.)

    Yes I've watched many a game on mobile and PC at the same time. (I've still not got around to watching it on PC and laptop using the same platform for 2 different teams.) The commentary differs but the events the commentary describes are the same. That ofc is why I shy away from literal interpretations of the comments since a shot can be wide, ripple the net and hit the post at the same time depending on the device The consistency is there was a shot and it missed. Or in your example that there was a goal attempt and it was saved. (Which is the basis for my often used response to "my GK made 4 saves, kept a clean sheet and rated 6" being...."how do you know they were good or ba saves, easy or hard saves, cat-like or fumbles )

    I think they have improved the mobile commentary pack with more variation instead of the old repeated "wide", "wide" but until they start replicating the commentary packs on each platform, in the same way, its not going to change. And its no surprise that they're different since different platforms still have different mechanics (training, auto-subs, auto-apply etc) and different needs to manage.

    Ofc these are the very reasons I keep banging on about improved stats which represent a whole match perspective eg whats the point of knowing pass percentage if you don't know the number of passes. I want stats that represent whole game, possession style information just like I put in the Suggestions topic.

    So yes I agree, but I'm not expecting a full animation either.

    *leaves before I bang on about this all day*

    'lack of confidence' and 'superb save' for the same action? If so, then there is clearly something wrong with this game, which brings into question how the ratings, the scores and so on are determined.

    so please please ADD that same commentary to the bottom of the animation.
    From watching a match the event that highlights this best is a player on my alt team was injured during live action (I assume). The only indication I got of this was because the next commentary without Live Action told me of the Auto Sub coming on.
