It's not faulty but needs improvement
Maybe you only have one GK in your team and the Assistant thinks you need more! Try having 2 before he comes back the next time.
This is my last recommendation. I had one 6 star fast trainer, 2 scout recommendation strikers I bought, and a bunch of other strikers on the roster and still only got strikers recommended to me (I have only been recommended strikers since I started playing):
I would love more of a mix! Why not 3 different positions each time?
My coaching style is said to be "very offensive", does this impact what type of players I get recommended?

GK is the default recomendation if nothing is needed.
ST seems next in line.
If you want a striker recommendation then have 2 GKs in your team, only 2 strikers in squad and put both in formation overnight (for my time). As long as you have a sub covering each other area then you should get 3 strikers popping.
You can change this to suit other positions.
The only recommendation that seems problemmatic for me is DMC - but thats my squad issue. Because I dont habe DML or DMR I only get offered 1 DMC and the other 2 those wingbacks.
Thats how to do it - whether its wise to do it is another matter. Personally I wouldn't 'recommend' them unless you have zero access to packs.
PS. It would ofc be nice if we could set some areas we want recommendations for.
PPS. low * players are not helpful for blocking certain types of recommendation - a 6* 1st team GK and 1* GK will not block the recommendation.
PPPS. Ofc if you ask support how it works they'll give you a long story about the assistant out searching for players and being limited by the players released by other teams - I even got a quote that players are not generated from thin air. >.<

Ok, I understand how the creators have thought when scripting this. But it is pretty complicated obviously and a lot of people seem to have a problem of only getting one type of recommendations. For me its obviously not working like its ment to work since I only have one striker in my formation and got new strikers recommended for me despite having three 6 star strikers on my team, one on the field and two on the bench.
Wouldn't a very easy fix be to rotate the recommendations if a player at a certain position is bought?
I have gotten Keepers every single time since this was introduced, I have both had one and two good keepers at times, nothing changed..
Last time i got a differnt player, for the first time
So faulty or need tweaking, point is that the selection for the recommend player does not work or help squad

I cant say I unlocked a secret.
It doesn't work very well because most of the time you have to create a weakness in the squad to get the type of player you want.
All I can say is I returned to the game and my 3* squad, and got a 3, 4 & 5 * recommended MC for obvious reasons since I only had 2, weirdly.
I filled out my team but only had 1 GK and got GKs only.
I then had my 3 stooges reinstated, 1 a gk and still I got GKs.
So I bought a 5* GK and got AMR/ST.
I also had not sub wingers at the time.
My friend Peter asked how I avoided GKs and I told him but suggested he wait.
I then had a long exchange with support trying to grab snippets of info.
I told him again and recommended the 2 ST option too.
He got ST recommendations.
He's had GKs ever since apart from when he wanted another ST
As I said I then modified it to try to get a DMC, twice, and I did but only one player each time had DMC and it was a crappy DML/DMC........
Experiences vary but I could replicate this repeatedly. However I'm so over recommendations.
PS. Since the ST nerf (I think) I got a 79T guy that couldn't hit a coo's arse with a banjo. The pain of seeing him in my squad was greater than the waste so I sold him on the market and got 150m for him.....hope things turned out well.
