I do agree with the OP however how possible is it to program some of the suggestions when this is basically a mobile game (I know next to nothing about programming having said that...imho PC games are a lot more complex beasts -- fm series case in point)?.
Btw fluid formation ....moving up down still basically same as up and down arrows right? (Can't hide whether given players are defending vs attacking anymore right?)....and yes bringing update near end of season is....horrible decision..
