Pellino is fine, by luck. He was substituted too, just as he it 45.
Flávio though lost the time he needed (he was substituted for 7 and needed 4 more).

Yeah, I get what you say but, to be honest, it's like you need to play the game wrong.
The "strict" thingy just doesn't work properly, it's not a reliable "tactic" at all.
Those odd substitutions you mention are surely something editable/doable, I guess.

I guess it doesn't matter.
It's just a poor feature to work around, I guess.
Thanks for the help though

I haven't watched this video in a while but it should explain what to do:

I don't think I've ever had problems getting my trainees the full 48 mins (other than injury/fouling out) following something similar to this.

I'll take a look at it, thanks
I've failed to do so for 2 straight weeks, though I was doing it wrong the first time.
Maybe I'm still not getting the "exact" formula to get it straight!

It just turns one of the most fun/interesting part of the game into something frustrating, a negative instead of a positive.

The consequence to that explanation would be a fired HC. No HC is paid to avoid the progress of his team lol I'm fine with them doing their thing in the "official" matches but for the scrimmage the only concern of the HC would be to achieve the team/training goals. Like you said, lose all you want but develop the players, right? It defies logic

Anyway, enough ranting, sorry about that.

If it keeps up, I'll have to start using 5 players only and some lucky fans every now and then. Will have to consider doing what needs to be done with the rest of the team on the other 2 games, somehow.

Yeah in the past people have suggested an overhaul to give managers more control over minutes, partly because of issues with training. But for now the technique in the video has always worked for me, so hopefully it will for you as well

Sorry for the successive posts but just to report that the strategy (8 player squad for 2 trainees) in the video worked, so thanks again
