2 quick-answer ML "leave to coach" mode questions...

1. Does the coach handle every aspect of the matchday team including starting 11 or can you at least decide the line-up, and subs?

2. Are you able to watch the match play out or is it simulated?

Cheers for replying

1. - The coach decides everything. (don't know if you maybe change the formation the week before you plan to simulate a match)
2. - You can't watch the match.

We can simulate?

Indeed. Did it a couple of times just to try it out. Don't think he changes much on the team since one of my players who was tired already was completely exhausted after the match i simulated. Furthermore I don't really know if anyone gets noted for goals/assists made during these matches..

Since you can ask for assistance for choosing the line-up, I would think he changes the line-up according to the same rules.
1. Choose from form
2. Choose from form and ability
3. Choose from ability only

People do get noted for scores and assists. I reloaded a save game after losing which was complete BS. The ref never calls fauls and I was tackled from behind TWICE in the penalty box. I decided to simulate instead of trying to play a fair game again. One of my defenders was credited for 2 goals lol.

The Coach uses the team you have in 'Game Plan' I asked this on Konami website and one of the games developers told me this.
