MAKE CONNECTIONS: Build relationships with teammates to see improvements

In Road To The Show you only get to control one player, you. This leaves a lot of work to be done by the rest of the roster to make sure the team picks up crucial wins.

To get the best out of your teammates, and yourself, you need to build up relationships with them. This was present in last year's game, but will have a bigger impact on player performance now, so don't ignore the off-the-field stuff!
