RonnieTodger Posted 3 August 2015 Share Posted 3 August 2015 Doing a Celtic save. Lost 2-1 at home to Porto despite having 30 attempts on goal to their 7. Nice and easy group games against Dortmund and Liverpool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 3 August 2015 Share Posted 3 August 2015 you cant be serious Why? You think they pluck their stats out of thin air? I'm not saying they're particularly reliable but not exactly less than things like Squawka/WhoScored etc... there's blatantly a lot of research gone into them. There's no right or wrong way anyway.

They kind of do in some cases, I'm yet to see Babacar/Kadlec blitz any League theyre placed in. Its a game, they need to add gems just for the exitement, you can also tell how wrong they get iot from the stat changes from year to year, just look through previos games and you'll see they can be well off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely wouldn't be the way I'd want to scout a player if I was at a club though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're usually well off, they get the top dogs well no doubt, Squawka and those sites do use real life stats. I do sympathise with your annoyance with those type of stats though being lauded about though and used as direct comparisons to be used on whether a player is good or not, it's the yank effect they want a percentage for everything.

I honestly don't think they are but I'll agree to disagree there. The percentages are often completely mis-leading. Too many people talk about percentages as if they're absolutely definitive despite the huge number of variables that come with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FM's stats aren't spot on but they're not far off at all in my opinion.Nothing wrong with us looking at FM stats when it comes to unknown players but Sky Sports is a billion pound sports media organisation with thousands of journalists researchers, sources and links with ex-players and managers (including their foreign arms Sky Italia, Fox Sports etc.). They should be able to provide a deeper insight than just ripping numbers from a computer game. It's the kind of thing I'd expect from first4lcfc and the like.

Fox92 Posted 6 August 2015 Share Posted 6 August 2015 After 6 years at Birmingham I got sacked (yeah, we got relegated from the PL). It was a struggle to the second half of the season, literally only won about three games. Took over the Fulham job three games in. Players are on ridiculous wages and I'm currently approx £200,000 over the wage budget. That'll be reduced when I reach January, I hate players on stupid wages. Drew my first game at QPR, gone on to beat Swansea, Watford and Leicester with Tottenham up next. Not a bad start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 6 August 2015 Share Posted 6 August 2015 Why on earth did Monaco list Bernardo Silva for £2.5mil? Mugs. He'll go on to be good enough for them. What a steal that is for me, in what's been a pretty crap start to my second season at Nantes. Draw specialists although I've got a nice run of games on the way.

Dan LCFC Posted 7 August 2015 Share Posted 7 August 2015 Had one on FM14 to try and get used to the game but it was quite like Klopp's final season. Never got them to click. I'm going to shout out to Bernardo Silva yet again. Two and a half million lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed25 Posted 7 August 2015 Share Posted 7 August 2015 I think FM15 is the easiest of them all as Leicester boss. Its 2020 in my current save and I have won everything (including the Champions League) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
