	Log in to remove this advertisement That is some achievement DJ ones Almost lost my first cup final in any competition against Sunderland in the League Cup lol. Used a full strength squad yet, most of them decided to play like utter shite. First Mascherano gave away a needless penalty, then my defence forgot how to defend and my forwards forgot how to score in a terrible first half display with the score level at 1-1. I took off Damiao off who was utter garbage upfront and my senior dlp Carlos at half time and gave the team the hair dryer treatment during the break, but it seemed to have no effect on them. Within 7 minutes of the restart, I was 3-1 down lmao. Papadopoulos was having an absolutely shocking game, so I dragged his sorry ass off the field around the hour mark. With crazy man Papadopoulos off the field, the defence looked solid again, and the come back was on! Fierro grabbed his first goal after latching onto a fine pass by Niang on the wing before calmly slotting the ball past the keeper. He got his second and the equalising goal right at the death after some nice play from Abraham to put him through. It was all one way traffic in extra time, with Abraham coming up with a special goal to put us into the lead, and then scoring a penalty to kill the game off.

	quote harbin91 Xpronic grats on getting through, and looks like you bombarded them, but I'd be concerned with how many shots your team wasted. 43 shots, only 13 on target, 9 clear cut chances yet only 5 goals from it. Would've expected that match wrapped up at half time TBFH. The game was a load of bollocks tbh. I beat them 6-2 and 5-0 in the FA Cup and league following that match ffs lol. quote Following my first Champions League victory against Barcelona, I'm hopeful of getting a treble this season. I'm able to afford naming a 'weaker' side against Swansea in the league. Hopefully winning against those two will have the title nicely wrapped up so I can field full strength against Birmingham in the FA Cup final, chuck the last two matches and have a fully fit side to face Real in the CL Final. Season runin all nicely worked out there. EDIT: Thank you Man Utd for hammering Chelsea 4-0. I'll never talk David Moyes down again. Sixth PL title in a row. Gz on beating Barcelona and winning your sixth league title! Thankfully, they are not gods among men any more on my save, now that most of the original squad have left or retired haha. Real Madrid on the other hand have gone drastically down hill, currently languishing 12th in the league and the season is almost over. For guys that like good team goals, check this one out: Spoiler:Team Goal They play like that against top sides, but struggle against the smaller sides. -------------------

	quote arwelt 6 PL titles in a row? Try 11 Barca have turned to shit on mine lol, always finish 2nd or 3rd in the league, hardly ever get to the QF's of the CL now. Well 2nd, 3rd is better than 12th. bleeping Real Madrid, they are utter shite now lmao. quote Season's almost done, won the league, won the Carling Cup, I'm in the final of the FA Cup and final of the CL, only 2 league games left also. Quadruple....do it! -------------------

	quote harbin91 Just wondering if you're actually bothered about your relationships with other managers on this game. Does it actually have an impact if some old sod managing another team dislikes or likes you? Only if you want to sign a player from the club they are managing, then they'll turn to bitches and ask for stupid amounts of money. If you were friends, they will accept a more reasonable offer. bleep this shit: -- -- -- -- It just had to be against some crap team I lose my 100% league record to. The amount of bleeping goal line clearances though...¬__________¬ Transfer listing all my forwards lol. -------------------

	Holy shit, just realised I've raked in £250m from player sales during the summer clear out xD: I decided to bring Valencia back (sold him £10m last season) because he is just a bleeping beast now: I inserted the 50% of next sale clause when I sold him, so I didn't really spend that much in bringing him back lol. quote arwelt Spoiler: First game of the season, looked like we were gonna lose, but nope we pulled through it Haha nice comeback! Nothing better than 2 quick goals. quote harbin91 Was just about to look forward to taking Italy into the 2018 World Cup only till I realised the reason I got the job is because the previous idiot failed to qualify XD LOL! Ohwell, I guess there's the Olympics/Euros to look forward too. -------------------

	Revenge: It tastes so sweet. That'll teach the nubs for sacking me. quote Maski harbin seems to be of the Rodgers philosophy of football, keep the ball longer than the opposition. YET FAIL TO WIN LOL! harbin91 very unlucky defeat to Real Madrid. I can't believe you've yet to win it. I would have rage quit and uninstalled the game by now lol. I domintaed Lyon in my CL final last season, yet only managed to win 1-0. Superman GK and defenders who decide they can all turn into Usain Bolt and clear certain goals off the line (GK got lobbed like 5 times >_>). What are Gerrard's coaching stats like? -------------------

	Champions: bleeping Hernandez and Fierro wonder goals threatened to ruin it all early on. They snuffed out my creative force Ganso and injured him after only 30mins. With him gone, it was anyone's game to win lol. Pato put in a shocking performance (6.0) missing countless chances. With no alternative on bench to swap him out with (Neymar missed the whole shit through injury), I settled with his bullshit for the 115minutes he was on the pitch before he got injured lol. quote harbin91 quote xpronic What are Gerrard's coaching stats like? Decent but not brilliant. Main reason I made him a coach was because I felt inclined to. Like Carra, Bellamy, Kuyt, etc... Spoiler: He's on more bloody money than me Hurr Durr 77k! He has managed 2 teams on my save, Wolves & Fulham. Sacked from both jobs. He is a quality coach, but isn't ready for the step up to manager yet lol. quote City also want Neymar, and I'm seriously considering selling him to them. His ability to keep missing one-on-ones is second only to Suarez' Think I'll start to have a new front line from next season. Ask for £50m. Hogan_fmf - You should be fine as long as you keep winning cups. The money you get from the EPL through sponsorships later on in the game is ridiculous. If the bank balance gets too low, our lovely chairman will just inject more money! Liverpool is currently worth £782m and I have £378m in the bank lmao. -------------------

	quote harbin91 Decided that whilst I'm tinkering with yet another version of my tactic, I'll rebuild the set pieces instructions. I would like more options regarding player positioning on them so for attacking corners, I can specifically place my defensive players properly. They defend too narrow and leave a gap in between the halfway line and the box that I want closed. Tweaking those set pieces makes all the difference. I rarely concede from them now, and in attack a few goals are scored from corners and free kicks if its not direct. I've also tweaked the throw ins, so that my advanced playmaker is more involved and defenders are better positioned in case we lose possession. I changed my tactic for last season after toying with the 3 sweeper system the season before. It's not as attacking as the the 31231, but its much better defensively against the bigger sides and if the players are up for it, can easily destroy the best teams as Arsenal found out in the 6-0 FA Cup final drubbing lmao. Tactic: -- -- -------------------

	quote harbin91 Thanks for that, hopefully my players will just start pass-pass-pass movement now. Just hope they don't allow themselves to get closed down. We did set a benchmark with 22210 completed passes over the course of the season. Hope we can top that. Yann M'Vila being the pass master, with 89% of his attempted 2,314 hitting the target. How do you check for those stats? quote Amazingly, we've only scored 3 goals from direct free kicks. Got joint first with 13 goals from IFKs though. Don't you have anyone with free kick over 15? -------------------

	Want to buy more clean sheets: It's just stupid that the cpu score with their first attack every time (long shots/fk/corners), yet my players somehow miss simple chances with the goal wide open. Maybe Reina is getting past it lol. quote harbin91 quote xpronic quote harbin91 Thanks for that, hopefully my players will just start pass-pass-pass movement now.

Overall team passes are on Club > Information > Stats Individual passing stats can be found on [Player] > Stats > Playing Stats although I have got a custom squad view that shows me them for all the players on the squad list. You can right click the heading bar and add more columns didn't you know? Thanks. I have different things showing on squad view. -------------------
