Switching between players

I'm looking up my players progress in view mode on his card. I'd like to be able to switch to a different player while still in this mode without having to click out, click on another player and then going into view mode again and then into progress. Would this be possible?

If you control-click (command-click on Mac) on the "View" button in most browsers it will open his page into a new tab, leaving the other tab where you can open another player. I use this a lot to look at multiple players, although you still have to choose the progress tab once on the player page.

I do have a feature request in to make it easy to switch to another team from the team page via a drop-down, but I haven't come up with a way to easily switch to another player from the player page just because of the huge number of players available to switch to. Do you have something in mind as to how to more easily move to another player?

I'll try that. I play a cricket game which just has a switch player box on the player page and a drop down menu with the list of player names in the squad.

That might be a good idea - so the drop down menu only lists other teammates of the player you're looking at then?

Yes, thats how it works on the cricket game.

Edit: On here it could be like the change pos button but bring up a list of squad players rather than the position drop down box.

I used to run a script like that on another game, which is handy. Another similar one is a player comparison. You have a player that you want to compare, click on compare button and a drop down list of your players, (or FAs if you are that list) allows you to compare builds between 2 players.

Speaking for myself, I would definitely appreciate some way to compare two players without having to open another tab. GREATLY appreciate it!

That's a good idea as well - added it to the list.

If this hasn't been brought up ... Would it be possible to have a filter option on your team roster for positions? Maybe just get the whole list at one time?
