I've just lost a game 10-5. I'm the only guy in the world that could score 5 away from home and still lose.

TEN!

Was going to try a similar version of my 100m budget clean slate game as a network game but it didnt work out so we decided on an NBA draft of players we wanted that could realistically be tempted into playing for Boro, Fulham and Bolton. We set a squad limit of 26.

Here's how they ended up.

Boro:

Hart, Boruc,

Alexis, Rafinha, Zaccardo, Delpierre, Kompany, Mathijsen, Bale, Kleber,

Flamini, Cloccini, Bentley, Farfan, Mikel, Barry, Denilson, Johnson, Pederson, Kranjcar, Nolan, Sobis,

Nihat, Doyle, JVO Hesselink, Pazzini

Bolton:

Green, Viera,

Zapata, Meira, Naldo, Garay, Albiol, Tasci, Zapater, De Jong,

Van Der Vaart, Aquilani, Menez, Downing, SWP, Camoranesi, Kroos, Maidana, Wijnaldum, Diego, Perrotta,

Ashton, Elmander, Keibling, Toto Tamuz, Podolski

Fulham:

Diego Cavalieri, Bogdan Labont,

Daniel Bonera, Jakub Blaszczykowski, Joleon Lescott, Joseph Yobo, Breno, John Mensah, Chris Samba, Gerald Pique, Abou Razack Traore,

Jean Il Makoun, Marek Hamsik, Zdravko Kuzmanovic, Maurone Felliani, Andrey Arshavin, Yohann Gourcuff, Ashley Young, Mikel Arteta, Jonathon De Guzman ,Tranquillo Barnetta, Lubos Kalouda

Mauro Zarate, Djibril Cisse. Robbie Keane, Markus Rosenberg,

Shall start playing it tommorrow as it took a while to establish who was too good for which team etc and who we could get away with.

That sounds awesome Karl, wish i'd been in on it! :P

You could have used FMM to set the balance though, would have saved you time lol

Are you all playing on the original patch? Because 8.0.2 is much much harder.

8.0.2

But don't worry, I was shit on 8.0.0 and 8.0.1 too.

Posted

I'm bored so i thought i'd give this another go.

Starting as Leicester and im going to try and and include as much of the youth team in my first team and try and sell as many oldies as i can.

Not sure why.

Posted
Will Bogdan Stancu score goals in the Championship? I have him coming in January.

More than a yes.

Posted
I think the game has gotten far better for the new patches. 8.0.2 is by far the best.

You really think? I'm not too sure to be honest, you get some good buys without the patch.

Thats true but its far more realistic and better play far less controvesy etc etc etc with the patch.

I've started with Leicester today, opened with a 1-1 draw at Blackpool, then crashed out of the Carling Cup 4-2 at Bradford :( . Bounced back with a 2-1 home win over Wednesday (Kaebi winner), and then had a 3-3 draw at Wolves (Matty Fryatt with two goals :thumbup:

Norwich at home next, come on the Blue Army! :scarf::scarf:

get mattock in the team and play andy king behind your front 2 = goals galore!! (just basically imagine your thracian)

Get Mattock in the team no matter what... and make sure that he doesn't get sold by Milan... EVER... in the future, he's one of the best Left Backs in the game!

Just had the tensest end to a season I've ever had on this! With Arsenal I was consistently about 4-7 points clear throughout the whole season.

However as I went further into the Champions League I started to pick up a few injuries and players became tired with the amount of fixtures I had to play.

So going into the last league game of the season Man U had 84 from 37. I had 83. So 1-0 up at Old Trafford last game of the season when Iniesta equalises on 82. United only needed a point to win the title.

However 94th minute up pops Kolo Toure to head one in of the post and win me the title. Now just gotta beat Valencia in the Champions League final.

I love this game :cheers: !

EDIT: Oscar Ustari is immense!!!

I've been playing Mattock in the team, along with Kaebi (scored the winner against Wednesday). No place for Andy King yet though, Clemence and Wesolowski/Kishishev in midfield. Sorry Thrac :cool:
