I tried a game with Hertha and sucked ass lol, ended 14th-15th in the league and Ibisevac took until FEBRUARY to score a league goal (lmao). Arsenal always seem to become the top team in my games - them plus United and City seem to take turns in winning the CL each year. Atleti kick ass though and they will be the next team I manage if Simeone ever leaves!

 

I just play Kalou up front usually. Pace is the best thing in FM games for a striker it seems.

Also in 15 I signed a player called Valentino Lazaro who was a highly rated winger. Just found out he actually now plays for Hertha on loan.

 

I played as Man Utd on my last save. I was enjoying destroying the league every year, even years where I had a terrible start I'd still end up winning the title. It was fun
Pretty sure Luke Shaw won the Ballon d'Or, fullbacks were OP on 16

Looking at playing as Everton, Ipswich and probably FC Dallas on the new game. Might pre-order FM18.

 

I'd love them to release a FM on the switch, I could just sit and play that while watching films/tv it'd be perfect.

 

If it was on the switch I'd be playing at work.

 

Kalou annoyed me so much with his constant complaining & poor performances I sold him to a Chinese team for £5mil lol. I also did similar to you by signing Davie Selke from RB Lepzig, who now plays for Hertha! Will probably be them again at some point on FM18 when I get it - good team; Mitchell Weiser in particular kicks ass.

 

Are the cup games today televised?

 

espn 3

 

How the f wasn't that offside?

 

Coquelin is playing like the entire game of football is an alien concept.

 

Bristol City beat Palace 4-1 lmao

 

Least impressive two goal debut ever. Lad hasn't done much but has got two goals. Fantastic for him.

 

Fuck he could have had a three goals on his debut. Scrap what I said above, this kid looks impressive.

 

That header from Lingard was nice.

 

Wilshere just played 113 minutes of one match. So glad he's properly back.


Nketiah almost with another goal. This kid looks GOOD.

 

On his 76th appearance, former Man U and Newcastle striker Alan Smith finally got his first goal for Notts County tonight in a 2-1 defeat to local rivals Mansfield.

Astonished to learn he’s still playing.

 

Wolves made 9 changes to their side for this game and still kept City from scoring for 120mins
Great performance

 

That surprises me too. I thought he retired because his legs were basically gone.

I'm also amused to learn that he's remembered as striker for Man U and especially Newcastle. He was playing some sort of DM role at that point.

 

He's not remembered for his time at Leeds?

 

Yeah he was by far his best at Leeds, I'm also surprised to see he's still playing haven't heard his name mentioned in years.

 

Poch says he’s resting players and fielding some younger players today against West Ham. I hope that means Marcus Edwards will be starting. I’ve been waiting to see him in action for so long now.

 

Poor smudge. That leg break killed him

 

Well, Rose and Dembele are both expected to return. So I guess it won’t be too weak of a squad.

 

Perhaps it's more that people are trying to forget Leeds.

 

Yeah. This is it.
