I have a way to do it kinda. Once the game starts press the touch pad and it switches to CPU vs CPU for the most part. Example I use Juventus and Buffon is captain and he is the only player you need to control so you basically get to watch the infield game as manager. I'm not sure if it's cause he's captain, so maybe make you goalkeeper the captain. This is in career mode

CPU V CPU should be an option. It would help when the game is as poor as 2018

Bump. I haven't had this issue in '18 as I have foregone purchasing it for a variety of reasons. BUT, I am in general a HUGE proponent of cpu vs. cpu mode. I don't care how nerdy it is, it is an enjoyable feature, and a borderline necessity to enjoy in a Manager mode. I've always been disappointed where this option is available in some game modes but not others. (Believe me, the absence of this feature in Road to the World Cup for World Cup 2014 has resulted in me doing some pretty nerdy stuff with spreadsheets. Don't even get me started. :-) )

I swear I remember a rich experience as a manager in FIFA. What was the last one? 16? Could watch, quick sim (with ability to make changes, subs), or play. It was great. What the hell is this *. I can't make any decisions once the whistle is blown. What is the point of being a manager if you have to play. That's what a team season mode is for! Took my copy back, and done with FIFA until it's back.

This also used to be in the game. They are just gutting the game at this point. Every menu option used to have several sub menus. So...many...options...gone.

Before starting a match, LOCK on the GK, the PAD, for zooming when you want to see closer. Thought playing as GK sometimes is awfull cause of their stupid time reaction. So i don't know if you SUB a players as in PLAYER CAREER, if they give you the choice to watch it. Hope it's good for you even if it's not a solution, it awfull that they disabeled CPU vs CPU since PS3... Maybe a matter of trophies, they could just disable it.
