For minor changes, here but for a formation change (tactics remain unless you want them changed but instructions go to default). I did the 2 formations for you to start so if it’s just that, you can make the change here as that’ll be an easy one
Wesley from his RB position (subbed for Frimpong). Haha I actually was commenting on that during the sim but forgot to notate it.

Yes and no. For the cpu clubs so they wouldn’t be just absolute trash, I selected mostly clubs that only lost 1-2 guys which I replaced with undrafted players (Club Brugge, RB Salzburg, Shakhtar, PSV, Olympiacos, Galatasaray, Young Boys) but then for PSG, Bayern, Atletico, Napoli I took the best undrafted players from each of those leagues and put them on that club
So they did in UCL but they may have been worse than not making subs. I remember saying that on stream 46th minute Vidal for Camavinga. Ok whatever. 63rd minute Felipe for Dumfries at RB 76th minute Reguilón for Alaba at CB
