Sounds like a terrible bag really
>>75191042
More like TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I love it when a manager shittalks you and you proceed to absolutely destroy them.
classic torres
what do you do with a player like this?
mah boy Asensio
>>75191416
And he doesn't back off
>>75191482
crank his physicals as high as you can, make him a defensive forward
he'll never be very good, he'll only ever be a backup option, but with his size and workrate he could be useful
like a shit mario mandzukic
>>75191482
I get rid of it.
>>75191504
>Lose 8-0
>They weren't that good, we could've beat them on another day
Is he officially the worst striker to ever play for Real Madrid?

And again Ronaldo proves he is better than missi.
He's absolutely destroying the 2nd best team in the world.
What did missi do yesterday?
>>75191993
Even I, despite how much I hate his guts, wouldn't go that far.
4 matches to go for playoff quali.. Watch the choke happen right here.
>Ronaldo goes missing in big games while missi carries "his" team
Exposed again
>>75192577
>>75192519
Sorry, can't hear what you're saying with ronaldo's cock in your throat
>>75192554
If we don't make it I'll move jobs.
>>75192619
Then when don't you try reading.
>invading the pitch after yesterday
hope he likes cavity searches
>barely scrapping a 2-1 aggregate win against Austria Wien
let's see who we get in the RO16
>>75192962
LOL just watch.
I know Ronaldo is the best
He'll always be the best.
He's the perfect offensive storm
missi will never equal his greatness.
Also little autist should worry about qualifying for the WC first.
>>75192962
just a prank bro
You're not allowed to post here by your own rules. Get lost.

btw, missi chokes.
What will your excuse be when Ronaldo wins the WC and missi can't even qualify because he has those autistic rages.
brilliant
>>75193223

GOAT
>>75193388
oh no
I'm so sorry
>>75193388
Potential to be a useful player.
>>75193398
Might aswell give him a huge contract, I'm likely to leave this team soon. 2 more matches to go, choking like crazy at the moment.
>>75193229
>>75193447
Who are the matches against?
>>75193223
>What will your excuse be when Ronaldo wins the WC and missi can't even qualify because he has those autistic rages.
As much as I hate the autist and UEFAlona, I really hope you're joking with this.
>>75193388
Well, at least he can score free kicks
>>75193490
>I really hope you're joking with this.
He's not joking.
Don't give him any (You)s
>>75193484
8th away 4th at home
>>75193490
http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/39423000
missi will be missing the games.
Right when his team needs him the most.
>it's a spastic defence episode
>>75193504
Honestly, I find it quite hilarious the answers he gives sometimes. Only reason I give him (You)'s
>>75193549
he just wanted to see how they'd fit that gigantic name onto the scoresheet
worst match of the season
1 more to go

>>75194359
im without a job and most leagues that are relevant for me are over :D
don't you love when your inbred defender awards them a penalty at the last 5 minutes while you're ahead :^)
>>75194411
I prefer the CB who holds onto the ball in a 1v2 scenario while inside his own third.
>>75194397
so hit continue and you speed through it anyway
>EFL cup means I would qualify for Europa League
Would it be stupid not trying to win the final? Im really not ready yet
>>75194661
Depends how far in the quali rounds you start. 3rd and 2nd quali rounds are usually filled with terrible teams, it gets tougher onwards.
>>75194661
which round of qualifying would you enter?
>tfw no one wants me :(
>>75194688
>>75194684
It doesnt specify like. I'd have to wait
>>75194698
Should have named yourself after a more superior element.
>>75194711
It certainly does. Go to Europe and check nation qualification places.
>>75194661
if you win the EFL cup you qualify for the groups I'm sure
I never really know what to do about the fact I have a world class DM but I don't play DMs and he's not even my best DM.
>>75194750
>my 5 time balon d'or winner is declining
sad!
>>75194711
wiki says 3rd qualifying round for this year, no idea if that's consistent. borderline if that's worth it
if it's >>75194747 then I wouldn't hold back, you can always set your backups to play counterattacking football, and make a few million along the way
>>75194775
>Determined

>>75194795

>>75194819
Why would Ozil know?
>>75194795
Its for the >current year so I dunno.
Hopefully the >posting midmatch will take it out of my hands
>>75194711
>>75194795
Depends who wins the FA Cup
>>75194795
Most cups of Europe get you to the group stages and so does the FA cup (wigan, iirc) but I do remember Hull being in the 3rd qual round so it might be different for the EFL
This is the first time I've had to think about it.
>>75194833
He's gonna know real quick considering where /arse/ is going.
Kinda gutted now desu
>>75194819
I already have a player who'll make it to 40.
>>75194880
Complete lack of CL football should make it pretty easy though.
>>75194914
>>75194861
FA Cup winner gets the group stage along with the 5th place in the league. If the FA Cup winner is qualified for CL, their spot is forfeited and the League Cup winner takes their birth with 6th place entering in the 3rd qualifying
>>75194995
cheers mate. i lost anyway so it doesnt matter
is it happening?
>>75195025
>>75194960
Yeah, it was just the first time I actually stopped to think.
If I wanted to move, this came in just after and I would leap at it IRL.
straight from the opening kickoff
I wish it was always this easy
We fucking did it.
Too bad Spartak collapsed.
>Drogba signing for Phoenix Rising in the USL

We did it! We went up!
The club that avoided relegation by 1 point was interested.
>>75195263
possibly the easiest draw imo
>>75195345
Nay, Udinese or Villarreal due to EPLEL money.
>>75195383
true but Southampton are battling for relegation
btw, 4 of their last 5 games were against Arselel
>>75195383
Does FL1 not get much money?
>>75195309
He's not even in my save, unfortunately.
>>75195436
>FL1
No clue, I don't think League football offers much TV money or prize money if at all.

Fixed. I don't even know what for considering their bench.

>>75195698
Why not the other way around? Worked for Sideshow Bob.
>>75195472

Another big job offer.
my finances are looking good for the first time ever for me in FM
>>75195828

>>75196055

>>75196055
how are you doing in the league
>>75196105
We just expanded it to comply with La Liga rules. We now have a super big 7500 seats stadium.
>>75196135
pretty good
>>75196162
Post your facilities page please.
>>75196221
literally every time I've talked to the board in this save has been to improve facilities.
>>75195752
>Implying P$G won't just stack useless >wengers and second strikers instead of recruiting what they truly need
Y'know, something like a CB that doesn't drown in his own tears under pressure and is proud of his teammates when they flop. Or a replacement for the gramps under ketamine named Motta.
>>75197004
It's not happening because Alexis wants to stay in London.
>>75197049
Just like Verratti or Marquinhos wanted to leave for Spain. Do you still actually believe in player loyalty anymore?
>>75197081
I didn't say he wanted to stay at Arsenal.
>>75197111
It makes no difference. P$G has FM AI-tier spending tendencies.
>>75195125

>>75197135

>>75197267
Mkhitaryan wanted to stay at Dortmund too y'know.
>seven matches in the first three weeks
What the fuck is this schedule.
Very Irish name.
>>75197343
And desu it seems like a terrible move from him, going from starting to being a rotation option at a similar stature club.
>>75197479
I do agree that it wasn't exactly smart, but such clubs just enjoy throwing money at problems. I don't think PSG will care that much if they really want to fins a second striker. Only, if not mostly 1st team members of equivalent or bigger clubs are beyond their reach. /arse/ isn't exactly in that category anymore.
>>75197624
I'm just under the impression that Alexis has all but confirmed that he's moving to Chelsea in the summer, and then he will be out of their reach for a season or two.
>>75197845
Good luck to get rid of Costa, although there's a place to be made on the bench considering how far behind Michy is.
>>75197049
>>75197479
>calling him alexis
What kind of nobhead calls player by their first name as if they know them?
>>75198302
>not knowing every player by their first name
Plastic.
>>75198302
Isn't that what he has on his damn shirt?
>>75198533
And no one over the age of 12 should have a first name on the back of their shirt
>>75198302
afaik his father abandoned his family and thats one of the reasons. same with memphis depay.
dunno why but i always wanna start a new save when the game gets regen heavy in the 20s
>gotta leave to get to the airport in 5 hours
looks like i'm pulling an all-nighter tonight!!!

As long as it did for me to play from Oct 1 to Jan 1.
Just clicked on the club name in the interview note and copy/paste into a text file.
>>75203736
for some reason copy paste did not occur to me I am retarded
>>75202153
incredibly limited player, but probably worth keeping around as backup. he's the kind of guy I'd throw on in the 85th minute into a forward role with maximum closing down instructions to disrupt their passing and wind the clock down a little

yes. take the next job offer that comes up

Ready to enjoy over 12M€ of sheklors that will allow you to get trampled in group stages and rule the league for the next decade? Now it's just a matter of qualifying for the group stages until you become relevant enough to win the CL, which should take around a decade, more or less. GNK Dinamo's strategy, plus the ambition, minus the corruption.
I'll need all the defensive boreball I can muster
>>75209504
No one has bid for him yet surprisingly.
Have had two transfer request from Romagnoli, but have convinced him to sign a new contract.
>>75210219
There's a huge home/away bias which will allow you to get some results home. Forget about away games except during the second part of the group stage where some teams already qualified will start to drop their level a tiny bit.
Nice group H btw.
>>75210260
I have noticed that when Primadonna's PA is relatively low (around 170-180), PSG will not hesitate to spend 50+M€ for him. When it's relatively high (closer to his maximum of 200), no club will bother buying him at least during the first few seasons.

yes 4-1-4-1 with wide midfielders. How a 4-3-3 should be.
>>75213731
>play 4-3-3 by not actually playing 4-3-3
>>75213663
>>75213431
It's pretty similar to lower leagues in England. The players and staff are so shit that anything well organized will net you victories unless you go against the club that crushes the country (should be either Crvena Zvezda or Partizan).
>>75213598
That appears to be a flat 4-3-3.
>>75213749
You know the formations in real life and in game are different right? What you see in the screen is your defensive formation.. You know this Norbro..
first shot on goal in the 91st minute, of course it goes in, of course it does

When you have the money, before or just at the end of the season maximum (when you're about to send players on holidays). If you wait until mid-summer, you'll have to wait until next year for the construction work to start. Same with new stadiums and expansions.

Fair enough. I was referring to the 4-1-4-1 though. 4-3-1-2 is a completely normal formation.
Speaking of hockey, you should go and see a game of the 2017 World Championships this spring... unless you live nowhere near Paris, then nevermind.

>>75218352
I do live near Paris, but I'm afraid I don't have much interest in hockey.

IIIIIIIIII AM AN ANTICHRISTA
>>75223845
Fan ownership means the club is slowly dying due to them constantly having no money and being unwilling to invest in a new stadium or improve the facilities.
One of the qt 3.14 regens at Palace was from Romania. Got immediately told to fuck off by England after Monk go sacked and the Romania job came up so I thought why not.

What the fuck..
So Elvis Manu got a invalid red card last week against Heracles, because the ref thought he made a deliberate handsball. Which wasn't the case. It's the second time he got a false red card. So Go Ahead Eagles tried to get rid of the match ban that followed because of the red card. The request got denied by the KNVB because: "he was too calm when he left the pitch so his handsball must have been deliberate."
I'm so fucking mad.. It's the second time this season that we got majorly fucked by the KNVB with a false red that they didn't want to get rid off for no fucking reason at all. What an utter joke of a football organization.. It's literally North Korea.
