Some key features to arrive on FIFA 20 Career mode may or may not have lit up your eyes. New player potential dynamic, morale adjustments and player conversations to name a few.
But the main one to consider is that EA finally responded to one of the most frustrating features of past Career modes.
FIFA 20 will no longer have the problem of a congested run of games that seems to occur more often than not in your Career Mode.
Scheduling Overhaul
EA have undergone the following changes to address the situation of fixture congestion issues. In the recent Career Mode deep dive in the Pitch Notes they said:
"The winter break roll out this season as well as the removal of the FA Cup 5th Round Replay have improved fixture congestion issues in English leagues.
"We’ve slightly altered the authentic schedule of the English Championship by pushing its completion to a later date. This ensures that schedule conflict situations between Championship rounds and European football nights aren’t possible."

In almost every Career mode you have played in there was one month that was pumped with games back to back or a day before a cup tie, especially if you go deep into a few competitions.
"A lot of the congestion issues reported by the community were happening with mid-week league rounds happening at the same time as European football, which, although unlikely in the real world, is a common occurrence in Career Mode."
At least now our players can take a breather before playing their next match without the risk of a dip in results or putting out the reserves.
