Thank you so much Liverpool for having so much money!
Kagawa wants £53k for wages, and we can only afford £15k

Marco Motta joins me after the season for free as his contract with Juventus is running out.

I've accepted a bid for Suarez from Real Madrid, good or bad?

Good performance, 2 more goals for Diane! He scored two real poacher's efforts. First goal was a rebound of one of my Winger's efforts. The other, dropped the shoulder of of the defender, used the pace he has to get a slight break away before finishing it away.

2/5 on target, decent not good. Don't have a clue what happened with that effort that went less than a yard...The effort in the middle was on the volley, so can't have many complaints on him there. The last effort that was off target was him just being bad really. Poor striker which went wide. 5 goals in 3 games now, so can't complain at all!


Sigge How old is he on your save?

Sigge, I'm sure you could have got more than £23M for him?

Good game, 3 goals including one from Diane. Shame to see us letting in another late goal, will get match preparation set on defensive positioning when the team get's used to the tactics.

Diane had been restricted to two shots, and still managed to score, but what a strike it was! Tackled a defender in the box, took a touch then goal!


In 2nd place with this win! Diane is 2 goals clear as top scorer. But looking at these statistics, it's clear to see who's going to win the league...


Sigge Are you bloody mental man! Suarez is like god on this game! He's just sheer class in any attacking position you play him! Do NOT sell him! Especially at that price! I got a £40m offer when he was 30!

Good Luck harbin91

It's your year this time surely.

So I heard some people like my rants?



I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING TO ME. FOR THE SIXTH BASTARD TIME IN A ROW, BARCELONA HAVE BEATEN ME. AGAIN THEY DID NOT BLOODY DESERVE IT. AGAIN I OUTPLAYED THEM. TWO CLEAR CUT CHANCES BUT THAT DID *bleep* ALL, YET THEY PLAY THE LONG BALL DOWN TEH WING AND DEULOFEU PUTS IT AWAY. SINCE WHEN DO BARCA *bleep*ING BOOT IT LONG!? EVERY *bleep*ING TIME I'M HIT DOWN THAT BLOODY WING. SERIOUSLY THOUGH FM, I AM PISSED OFF WITH THIS. I KNOW BARCELONA ARE GOOD AND THE BEST TEAM IN EUROPE (NO MATTER WHAT CHELSEA FANS SAY), BUT THEY ARE NOT *bleep*ING UNBEATABLE TO THE POINT THAT I'VE BEEN DUPED OUT OF A *bleep*ING CHAMPIONS LEAGUE WIN. SERIOUSLY SPORTS INTERACTIVE GET YOUR DICK OUT OF BARCELONAS ARSE!!!

I HAVE THE BEST SQUAD ON THE GAME, YET AGAIN I SEE ALOT INCONSISTENCY, NEYMAR BEING THE MOST INCONSISTENT OF THEM ALL... ONE MINUTE CAN BE WONDER WOMAN, NEXT MINUTE CAN BE ON HIS PERIOD. SUAREZ BEING THE ABSOLUTE SAME.... ONE MINUTE SUPERMAN, THE NEXT MINUTE LEX LUTHOR COMES ALONG. BUT THEN I CAN HAMMER TEAMS 3, 4, 5-0 SOME OF THEM STRONG TEAMS ASWELL, CREATE LOADS OF CHANCES AND THEN NEXT MINUTE THEY HAVE AN IRRATIONAL FEAR OF THE NET... MY DEFENDERS CAN'T DEFEND DEEP BALLS, AND MY ATTACKERS WON'T GO ANYWHERE INSIDE THE OPPOSITION BOX.

ALL OF THIS COULD BE FORGIVEN IF MY SQUAD WAS SHIT BUT THEY AREN'T. CAVANI, SUAREZ AND NEYMAR SHOULD RIP DEFENCES APART, YET OFTEN I FIND THEY CAN'T DRIBBLE, ESPECIALLY WHERE LINES ARE CONCERNED SINCE THEY FIRST TOUCH THE BALL OUT OF PLAY, AND SEEM TO HAVE TUNNEL VISION. THEY WILL BE AN ABSOLUTE PEACH OF A PASS BEHIND WHICH JUST NEEDS A THROUGH BALL AND INSTEAD PLAY IT ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE KEEPER, WHO PREDICTABLY BOOTS IT LONG TO THEIR DEFENCE AND GIVES IT AWAY. EVEN THEN, I EXPECT MY FRONT THREE TO CLOSE IT DOWN, BUT INSTEAD SIT AROUND WAITING FOR SOMETHING. HOW ABOUT DO SOMETHING. I SET CLOSING DOWN TO WHOLE PITCH YET YOU STILL DO *bleep* ALL. EVEN THEN, IF A BRILLIANT THROUGH BALL IS ON, AND THEY DECIDE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT AND PASS, THEY EVEN MANAGE TO MESS THAT UP. BARCA DON'T HAVE BAD DEFENDERS, BUT THAT IS THE WEAKEST ASPECT OF THEIR TEAM, BUT THIS SOMETIMES EVEN HAPPENS AGAINST SHIT TEAMS, LIKE WEST BROM, WHERE THE THROUGH BALL IS STRAIGHT AT THE KEEPER OR THE DEFENDER. THESE ARE SUPPOSEDLY GOOD PLAYERS PASSING ASWELL, PASSING, ANTICIPATION, DECISIONS, CREATIVITY OVER 15 YET THEY CAN'T PLAY A SIMPLE THROUGH BALL, OR DO SOMETHING COMPLETELY INSPIRING. PLAYERS WHO ARE QUICK, YET GET CAUGHT UP BY PIQUE, PLAYERS WHO HAVE HIGH DRIBBLING ABILITY BUT DRIBBLE IT STRAIGHT TO A DEFENDER, PLAYER WHO HAS HIGH FINISHING, YET SHOOT STRAIGHT AT THE KEEPER, PLAYERS WHO ARE TALL AND STRONG IN THE AIR BUT GET OUTJUMPED BY MESSI. ALONGSIDE THAT, THE PLAYERS TAKE A DAY TO PICK UP A LOSE BALL, AT WHICH POINT THEY'VE BEEN CLOSED DOWN AND GAVE IT AWAY BY TRYING TO KNOCK IT THROUGH THEM. THIS WOULD EASILY BE FIXED IF THE FM TACTIC SCREEN HAD A SETTING FOR MY PLAYERS TO KEEP THE BALL MOVING, CHASES DOWN LOOSE BALLS, AND HAS A NEVER SELFISH PPM, WHICH WOULD HELP ME UP FRONT, SINCE STRIKERS WILL RARELY PASS TO A FREE, UNMARKED AND COMPLETELY ONSIDE OPTION, BUT INSTEAD SHOOT WIDE, EVEN IF THEY PASS, THE LIKELYHOOD IS THAT THEY'LL MISS IT, BY DRAGGING IT WIDE AND MISS AN OPEN NET. THEN IT COMES TO MY SIDE, WITH AN ABILITY TO MISS THE TARGET FROM AN OPEN POSITION, YET THE OTHER TEAM CAN CONSTENTLY GET A SHOT IN WITH NO ROOM AT ALL.

WHAT TAKES THE BUSCUIT THE MOST THOUGH, IS THAT I HAVE THE BEST TWO FULL/WING BACKS ON THE GAME. BALE AND VRSALJKO, WHO ARE QUICK, HAVE GOOD DRIBBLING AND CROSSING ABILITY AND HIGH DEFENSIVE STATS, YET THEY CAN'T WIN THE BALL ON THEIR OWN (GRANTED HELP FROM MY STRIKERS WOULD GO A LONG WAY) BUT EVEN THEIR CROSSES ARE POOR. BEFORE JOINING MY TEAM, BALE AT ONE POINT SCORED 9 GOALS AND GOT 18 ASSISTS... NOW I'M NOT ASKING HIM TO SCORE REGULARLY OR RECREATE THOSE STATS, ESPECIALLY AS A FULLBACK BUT GETTING MORE THAN 1 ASSIST IS A REQUIREMENT, ESPECIALLY FOR A GUY WHO'S CROSSING ABILITY IS 17, YET INSTEAD OF ACTUALLY AIMING FOR ONE OF MY GUYS, THE CROSS GOES STRAIGHT TO THEIR KEEPER, IN THIS CASE VALDES. VRSALJKO WHO IS QUITE LIKE BALE, HAD SIMILAR CONTRIBUTIONS FOR ATLETICO MADRID, YET FOR ME, HE ONLY MANAGED 1 ASSIST. HELLO, BUT CAVANI IS MASSIVE IN THE AIR, THINK THE POWER OF CARROLL MULTIPLIED BY THE TECHNICAL ABILITY OF MESSI, AND THE POACHING ABILITY OF SHEARER, WITH THE PACE OF PELE. MIND YOU, THAT IS ALL FINE IF THE GAME DOESN'T INJURE BOTH MY FIRST CHOICE FULLBACKS AT THE SAME TIME, LIKE WHAT HAPPENED THE PREVIOUS SEASON WITH JOHNSON AND CRISCITO, AND IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH, IT EVEN TOOK ROBINSON OUT. BALE MANAGED 19 LEAGUE GAMES, BECAUSE OF INJURIES. A LITTLE OVER FOUR MONTHS LOST DUE TO INJURY FROM BALE, VRSALJKO LOST A TOTAL OF JUST OVER THREE MONTHS DUE TO FOUR SEPERATE INJURIES.

BUT EVEN THEN, IT WOULD BE NICE IF THE TEAM ACTUALLY FOLLOWED THE TACTIC. I SAW BUSQUETS DEPLOYED IN DM FOR BARCA, NOT ONCE DID I SEE HIM THROW HIMSELF FORWARD, AND HE WAS ALWAYS THERE TO MAKE INTERCEPTIONS. LUCAS ON THE OTHER HAND REGULARLY ATTACKED FROM DM, DESPITE EVERYTHING TELLING HIM NOT TO. MY TEAM BOOTED THE BALL UP FIELD, DESPITE EVERYTHING SET TO SHORT... THE SINGLE PLAYER WHO SHOULD BE PLAYING LONG BALLS AT SUITABLE TIMES IS M'VILA, BUT EVEN WITH HIS 17 PASSING, HE GETS SHIT WRONG. BIT UNFAIR ON HIM SINCE HIS PASSING ACCURACY IS 92% OUT OF THE 3500 PASSES HE MADE THIS SEASON, BUT FOR SOMEONE AS GOOD AS HIM, I EXPECT BETTER, CONSIDERING XAVI WAS SUB 75%.

AND THEN THERE IS THE NOTE OF SUPERKEEPERS. NO MATTER HOW GOOD MY TEAM AND HOW SHIT THE OPPOSITION, THE SO CALLED SUPERKEEPER TACTIC IS EMPLOYED JUST TO STOP MY TEAM RUNNING AWAY WITH MATCHES I EXPECT THEM TO... BUT WHEN THAT HAPPENS, FM STOOPS EVEN LOWER BY MAKING THEIR ONE SINGLE SHOT GO IN, WHILST MY TEAM CHUCKS EVERYTHING AWAY. THIS HAPPENED. AND IN THE EVENT OF THAT HAPPENING, WHAT I THEN END UP WITH IS COMPLETELY LOPSIDED AND FUBAR STATS... DOMINATION OF POSSESSION, YET MOST OF THE TIME THEY MANAGE MORE SHOTS THAN MINE. A MANAGER ONCE SAID, IF YOU HAVE ALL THE POSSESSION, THE OTHER TEAM CAN'T SCORE... THEY CAN IF IT'S FM. NOW I LIKE TIKA-TAKA, DOMINATION OF POSSESSION AND THE GRADUAL TEARING APART FROM DEFENCE, BUT THE INHERENT FLAWS OF THE MATCH ENGINE, COMPLETELY RUIN THIS FOR ME, TO THE POINT IT'S STARTING TO MAKE ME SEE THE GOOD SIDES OF HODGSON'S, PULIS' AND ALLARDYCE'S LONG BALL. MY TEAM WOULD BE SUITED FOR IT.... SET CAVANI AS A TARGET MAN TO HEAD, BOOT LONG GOALFEST, BECAUSE THAT'S HOW FM WORKS AGAINST ME... OH WAIT, IT'S THE PLAYER, THAT MEANS 100% FAILURE. THINGS LIKE THIS ARE COMPLETELY MAKING ME WANT TO TEAR UP TIKI-TAKA FOR SOMETHING ELSE, SINCE IT DOES NOT WORK AS IT DOES IN REAL LIFE.

MORALE DOES *bleep* ALL, EITHER. EVERY TEAM TALK I GIVE, I GET A POSITIVE REACTION, FROM ATLEAST 8 PLAYERS. FAT LOT OF GOOD THAT DID MY TEAM.

THERE WAS ONLY ONE TEAM THAT HAS DESERVED TO WIN THE PAST FIVE CHAMPIONS LEAGUES, AND THAT IS MINE, THEN I REALISED THEY WERE DOOMED FROM THE START WHEN SI PUT BARCELONA INTO THE GAME.


If you can't tell, I'm quite incensed about this. I wanna destroy something now. I'd like my team to destroy Barcelona but we've agreed that's never gonna happen.

I see alot of people getting taken over but it never happens to me, is there something I can do to make them wanna buy my club?
