FM26 - training position/role, delegating/own PS5

by Alexandru, Nov 14, 2025

Hi. I am playing console version which is simplified but at the same time pretty annoying to move around using controller. Would like to hear answers on following:

1. In FM24 I never trained role, traits or used focus for players until 22 y.o. So it was always position, no focus and no traits. I played mainly 2-3 teams all the time and my subjective opinion is that players evolve better using this approach.

Question: Is it the same in FM26?

2. I delegate training to Assistant manager (obviously as it is cumbersome to do all with controller :). As I just played in total 3 seasons, I can see that my own (manager profile) attributes improved - for example "attack", "defend", "fitness" became "good". My coaching attributes are better than of Assistant Manager (who is doing all the first team training). Having all variables the same (schedule, intensity, etc.), does it mean that if I don't delegate first team training, players will develop better?

Question: For example, start of the season "shooting" attribute for a player is 10. After full season with delegated training it increased to 11. If I don't delegate (same schedule, same intensity, same match results and playing time) theoretically it might increase to 12.
