This BETTER only be to prevent walkovers. If it eliminates the blank or partially blank lineup while having enough active players, then it'd be the worst decision ever.

Unless...they change how many minutes high stamina guys get, or put in an option for preferred minute usage per position. I mean, if we're stuck seeing our starters get 40 to 44 minutes a game, this would kill stamina training.

Set a blank lineup with one guy for my PL. Was not able to set a blank lineup with zero guys in the lineup.

I have a feeling you should report AFTER the game, how your specific "empty lineup" was set and how it worked/not worked.
Example:
"I set Player A as a starter, backup and reserv on PG, same for Player B on SG, then empty spots on SF,PF,C. Had picked 9 players. It worked wonders for me, both PG and SG played all 48minutes, my "pure" C played 40 minutes as C and my SF played 28 minutes as SF and 5 as PF, and the backup SF 10 minutes at SF while my two best PF shared the load on PF with 22,20 minutes. My scrubs had up to 5 minutes each at random positions."

I was able to submit a blank lineup successfully for my next PL game.

It's no. 2. Walkovers are not affected by the change. This feature will only be used when none or just one starter is set. If the number of players dressed (in the roster) is lower than the walkover minimum, the game will still be a walkover.

I think that the removal of blank lineup would be an amazing idea.
It should have been done a while ago.
Who deserves to get rewarded by letting your fictional coach decide who goes in at the specific time.
If you want to do well in your games,
do it in work not by luck.

Not sure if you're serious or not.
I Find blank a loophole that needed fixing.
The game like every other one except this one should require the manager to set a line up.
That it is the laziest AND the most effective is certainly a good enough reason to be rid of it.
Good riddance!

Blank lineup has the best, most realistic substitutions. I don't want to see this option removed until they provide more control on substitutions.
