I've joined Leverkusen and edited Bobby Zullo to be joining them instead. I want to watch this player grow, even though I already manage Australia lol Got Australia to the World Cup with 2 games remaining. Wasn't particularly hard :lol:

I've never seen a young kid anything like the guys you show here. 16yos with like incredible skills. Tales was probably the best, but he was 18 or 19 when I saw him. Never had something awesome come through my academy either.

I have signed a young Portuguese keeper who has 'potential to be one of the best players at the club'. Hes 17, and the first choice keeper for Portugal U19. He only cost 20k, and his wages are so low. Awesomeness!

Got about 12 games to go in my EPL season with Leeds. Sitting 18th but 17th placed QPR are only one point infront. Have beaten every big 4 team this year, beating Liverpool twice and the rest once make up 5 of my 7 wins so far. My squad is now starting to hit a bit of form so we should be safe this year if results go our way

Someone said on here (I think Fredsta?) that they were thinking of signing Matia Destro and I said he turns out crap. Well I was linked to him and checked out his stats and he does actually turn out alright, must have been a late bloomer. I didn't buy him as I have enough strikers, who are all of great quality.
Playing 4-3-3 with Leverkusen. My width is coming from my L/R defenders which get forward quite often. My three strikers are going to go great this season. My back-up is basically Bobby Zullo so that should tell you how good they are!

Does Alberto Paloschi turn out any good?

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

Just played an epic game v MK Dons.

On 6mins, David Carney (lol) played a ball across the face of goal from the left wing, Robert Earnshaw met it at the back post and its 1-0.

25mins down and Earnshaw gets his 2nd, from the penalty spot. I have literally 0 chances in the first half and its 0-2 going into the break.

2nd half I start the better of the sides, and it pays off on 51mins. A long ball from my left back forces the keeper to sprint out and clear. However, his clearance is charged down by Mantorras and the rebound falls kindly for Mantorras to roll into an empty net. 1-2.

6 minutes later, Haris Medunjanin, my big money signing, has a free kick from a very tight angle on the right hand side.

He WHIPS it in with his left foot with some amazing curve, and it grazes the underside of the crossbar and goes in. 2-2.

The game is tight from then on, with Dons spurning one clear chance on about 70mins.

Then, on 87 mins, my Right Back, Rens Van Eijden needlessly hacks down an opponent and receives his marching orders.

90mins rolls by and I think I've held on, but then Dons score a 20 yard strike on 91mins and Im heartbroken.

BUT on 93mins, John Goossens breaks down the left hand side and sends an inviting ball into the box, and guess who's there to meet it?

MEDUNJANINNNNNNNN!!! 3-3!!!

What a game. Medunjanin, after playing poorly in pre season and in the first few games of the season, has come good, scoring 5 goals in the last 5 games, and an average rating of 7.4. :D

Love moments like that imno, last seaosn against Arsenal when Laurito scored a 93rd minute equalizer to put it 4-4 after going down 4-0 I did wake up my dad who was asleep on the couch. Love it when an important goal is scored and the commentary says "get in"

Meh. He was at Newcastle when I was there. His technical stats aren't the best but he's fast and will latch onto heaps of balls, whether he scores all the time is another thing :lol:

I'd go 3-4-4 tbh. You've got a lot of CB's and 2 of them are quality. I'd put Santon at Right-mid though, Saivet on the left and Sneijder and Mascio in the middle. Laurito, Gignac and Doyle up front.

My assitant at Chelsea said he was better than Drogba (he was when they were compared), so I sold Drogba for a fair amount and then bought him at a price waaaayyyyy to high.

16 games in he's only scored 4 goals at a rating of 6.69. Laurito is playing much better with worse stats.

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

The best stats for a Assistant are Judging Ability, Motivation and Tactical Knowledge (Tactical Ability? I can't remember what it's called).

He has finishing of 20, and has high stats in all attacking categories yet he completely inefficient up front. Nothing wrong with confidence or mental attributes either. :?
