Hey everyone!
And just like that, another season is in the books. 🎉 Congrats to all the Season 16 winners, well played! Let’s see what Season 17 has in store.

This time, we’re bringing in a mix of realism, tactical depth, and some fun twists to keep your squads feeling alive and unpredictable. Here’s what’s new:


👴 Aging Players — Physical Decline

  • Players aged 30+ will now gradually lose physical skills during season changes.

  • The drop amount depends on both age and current skill level.

  • Managers will get an alert for each player affected, so you’ll always know who’s on the decline.


📊 Player Info — Training Panel Upgrade

  • You can now check all skill changes directly in the player information panel, under Training.

  • No more guessing — every gain or drop is recorded for transparency.


👶 Youth Traits — Hidden Until 18

  • Youth player traits are now hidden until they turn 18.

  • When scouting, you’ll know if a player will have a trait, but not whether it’s positive or negative.

  • You’ll need patience to see what kind of star (or headache) you’re grooming.

  • If your current youth already has a trait before this change, don't worry, he will keep that trait.


⚡ Player Modifiers — Temporary Buffs & Debuffs

We’ve added Player Modifiers, short-term effects from key events that impact on-pitch performance.
They’re visible in the Tactics Panel, helping you fine-tune lineups with more realism.

Here’s the first wave:

  • Man of the Match (+5%) — Awarded MotM, lasts 24h. Boosts confidence.

  • Hat-trick Hero (+10%) — Score a hat-trick, get a big morale lift for 24h.

  • Settling In (−5%) — New transfers adapt for 48h.

  • Unsettled by Transfer (−5%) — Affects players listed on the market.

  • Returning from Injury (−5%) — Reduced sharpness for 24h after comeback.

  • Positive Press Release (+10%) — Praise with a club press release, lasts 48h.

  • Birthday (+10%) — A once-a-year (season) morale boost, lasts 24h.

  • Family Issue (−10%) — Off-field distractions, lasts 24h.


🔧 Game Fixes & Quality of Life

  • Captain substitutions are now handled correctly, keeping your top-priority captain in charge.

  • Mobile tooltips have been adjusted for proper positioning.

  • The documentation was updated with up to date information and a different organization.


That’s it for now! Season 17 brings more strategy, more realism, and more moments of joy (and pain 😅) as you lead your squad to glory.

Good luck out there, managers, may this season be your best yet. 💙

That's a lot to process, but it's definitely intriguing

So many new things, yes, without a doubt, it makes the game more realistic. We'll see how it goes.

I think adjust player wage, make it smaller really necessary, with current prize. several player with 70s AVQ sold with one digit euro, but his wage thousands local currency

If you want more realism, add player sessions. I think that would help smaller teams a lot and also help develop the players of the big teams.
