GM Mode - Actually Being GM Mode

In my opinion, GM Mode should be strictly just GM specific.

Users have the option to control lineups/rotations by choosing either GM & Manager, Manager mode OR checking Legacy Control....

There should be an option to play the game strictly as a GM. I feel like it's a big miss that this feature doesn't exist.

To my knowledge, the only way to NOT control lineups is if a manager has a red dot and that's totally unrealistic since the manager would need to be "controlling" in order for that to happen.

There are plenty of ways for a human player to edit lineups. Should make GM mode specific to GM Mode.

Check out the "manager settings" [sic] screen. you can delegate depth and lineups to the head coach as well as numerous other things. This will be accurate info from the older manuals too, if you have trouble finding it in game. No reason to rain on other people's parade, since you can accomplish what you want very easily already.

Who's parade am I raining on?

And for online leagues that want GM mode only, your idea doesn't work.

Why is it frowned upon to want a deeper GM mode that doesn't blur the on field Manager lines?

Could add so many features with it, including a deeper scouting system.
