Form Updates...

Badge image
I'm a little confused about one statement in the latest form update

"From now on, the form of your players will be updated when the gameweek is over and only count form matches from the previous gameweek."

So does this mean that players won't suffer form ball losses for over playing during the past week?

What I don't understand is when does this come into play - starting today or starting next week? And will there be a form update tomorrow, as usual?

Because I haven't seen any change/improvement in my players and there should have been some (at least for some of my players).

So to clarify:

Tonight when the form updates runs (as it does every week, after midnight between Monday and Tuesday) we will only update players who have improved in form. This is to avoid anyone loosing form because of the recent updates.

The following weeks will continue as normal with updates that can both improve but also worsen the form.

Let me know if it's still confusing for you guys.

Going forward then what should managers do to maintain form? Do we carry on with the 4 friendlies 2 league games format? What counts as a form match seen as they are the only matches being counted now?

If I am not mistaken...all matches are still counted toward form...but friendlies are the only matches that can have a negative effect on form...thus you must be aware of how many of those are played.

I dont get it, whats the Tweak? Apart from the only positive update this week and when returning from camp.

You write "only" in bold, like it was something new. Hasnt it always been like that?

Chv,
I think they will not calculate friendly games played from Tuesday to Monday, inclusive, but from Monday to Saturday, the week before. So Monday's friendlies will now count in the next week's form update, not like now, in next day's form calculation (Tuesday).

No change, MZ weeks have been, and will still remain to start on Tuesdays, and end on Mondays. Form will be updated each new gameweek = Tuesday night as before.

I think the new part has to do with players leaving training camp and how their form is affected. I think lol. I'm surprised the official news wasn't more detailed.

Along with the training camp part, the major update was that:

Before the update, the form was updated whenever the form program was running, and it could for instance take longer time at one week compared to another, which indirectly meant that matches that were played around that time could one week belong to one week, and next time belong to another week.

Now we have made sure that the form program only include matches that belongs to the previous game week, so a user can be sure that a specific match always will belong to the same week, and not change from update to update.

It might not be anything noticeable, however a necessary update to make it clear and understandable. This is another step towards simplifying how form works :)

It was not really relevant and we thought that it would confuse more managers than what it would help. The important thing is that it works as people assume it works, which it now does.
