  1. Done with season 1! Ended 9th, almost snuck 7th but was never really going to happen, and Europe probably wouldve been too much strain on my squad. Fat Mike opened up his chequebook and I was given 8.5 million to get a midtable finish. These are my transfers so far: In: Marco Verratti (2 mil) Jack Wilshere (Loan fee, 825k) Victor Anichebe (Free) Felipe Mattioni (6 mil) Out: None I've been trying to ship on Perch, Smith, Best, and Williamson, but apparently theyre all too shite for the other teams. Oh, and Coloccini finished the first season with 4 reds.
  2. Its changed over the course of the season, but for the last 10 games or so Ive been using: ------------Lukaku--Vuckic Jonas------------------------Gosling ---------Guthrie------Nolan Enrique-Colo-De Laet-Simpson -------------Krul Lukaku was a great buy, 17, and most of it over 48 months. Nolan as creative playmaker, Guthrie has ballwinning midfield set to defend.
  3. THIS! Its unreal how many times my players have been sent off. Here are the stats: Coloccini: 3 reds, 3 yellows, 17 appearances Tiote: 2 reds, 3 yellows, 13 appearances STaylor: 2 reds, 2 yellows, 13 appearances Vuckic, Carroll, Simpson, Williamson, and Ben Arfa all have one red. Totally unrealistic that, I've also been given 8 penalties on the year, which is also quite a bit. Granted I've only converted 4 of the 8, but for that I blame Shola
  4. We should use our other secret weapon as well, the one who goes by the codename Near Omnipotent Leader of Newcastle, or NOLAN.
  5. Been playing Vuckic up front with Carroll, been doing meh. Have had some awful awful results, lost 6-1 to Spurs, 5-1 to Wolves, and a few others, but some how manage to float around 12th-15th. In January now, trying to bring in new players but Ashleys being a tight arse cunt as per usual. Has anyone progressed to the second season? If so how much money do you get for spending in the offseason?
  6. Yeah this is what leads to the rest of the problems with a lot of players... it also massively impares your performance as an athlete especially if abused over several years. I'm not saying all footballers should be saints, or that indeed many are... however i'm sure the likes of usain Bolt aren't pissed half of the time. Even Michael Phelps enjoys the odd toke Haha isn't there an urban myth that it increases your lung capacity? He was just training thats all By that logic I could be an Olympic swimmper!
  7. Kevin should class that as his first lesson in uni life. Trust no-one! Yep. Although to be fair jon gave me a lot of help, hes the only decent one here it would seem Fish? go get hit by a bus. anytime mate

  9. Id put in Donovan over Ameobi in a heartbeat
  10. Its not really stupid to write someone off at 21... history would show that most players who are in and out of trouble and enjoy a boozy trouble strewed lifestyle dont go on to become top top players. Yeah people can reform their characters, but usually they are the ones who weren't so off the rails to begin with. Yeah Barton may have turned it round a lot but he missed out on a lot of football and his development has suffered... are you telling me he is the player he could have been? What do i know about Carrolls personality? Well I dont know the guy but its clear to see he's hardly a shrinking violet... there's a reason he's in the papers and court and its not some sort of journalisitc vendetta against him. 3 assualts, booze and coke fuelled parties... regardless of whether he's dabbled in drugs is irrelevant... trouble follows the lad... this isn't the behaviour of a professional athlete, its the behaviour of someone who thinks he's made it already, and that my freidn spells trouble ahead. A call up to the England squad now would just further fuel his own self worth and ego... it certainly wouldnt do him any favours thats for sure!
  11. Its stupid to write someone off when theyre only 21. Apparently when Giggs and Lee Sharpe were younger, they were both getting a little wild, not to the extent of Carroll by any means, but Ferguson went and had a talk with them. Giggs adapted and became who he is, Sharpe basically faded. It is possible to turn it around, and wor Joey seems to be an example of that. Furthermore, what the fuck do you know about his personality? I assume youre basing this revelation of yours purely on the stuff read in the news and seeing Carroll on the pitch and in interviews. You have no insight into how his mind works that should lead you to this conclusion. And I'd rather have Carroll doing what he is than going about like Stephen Ireland being a twat of the first order.
  12. JonTheMag

    Carroll

    It would also be nice to see Carroll doing more from outside the box. Not that I'm loving how he's playing, but most of his goals seem to come from headers or knockdowns from corners inside the box, would be nice to see him take a shot from distance on occasion.
  13. Hes on 3 I believe, and hopefully Guthrie would get the call up instead
  14. The game is crocked! Tiote only has 88% pass completion, when in real life he has 92%. Unbelievable how they can let this sort of inaccuracy slide
  15. Brought in Faubert and De Laet on loan as cover for right and left back, bought a guy called Solari as an AM L, and I tried to buy Kadlec as well, asked the board to do it, they said they would, my bank balance went from 1.5 to 0, and I haven't heard anything since. Fuck Mike Ashley. Started off poorly so far, lost 4-2 to Sunderland (A) and 3-0 to Liverpool (A)
  16. The Messi lad looks alreet like, get him in
  17. I dont get that because I'm not in the UK Anyone got a torrent?
  18. Has anyone got a torrent of this? I missed the game and would love to see it in its entirety?
  19. Do they not fucking know what condone means? Dickheads.
  20. He probably will start to in the coming year. He was mediocre the first season, and last season was in the Championship, so its understandable he wasn't getting in the Spain squad. But now that he's in the prem and playing well he'll surely get a look in given Spain's shortage at left back. Didn't they have Capdevila playing there?
  21. Fuck steam. My credit card is American, but I got to school in Canada, so it wont let me buy it with my card. I've sent support an email but have yet to hear back. Wankers.
  22. Im a bit confused. How is it featuring them? Just by saying their names? Or are they involved with the music somehow?
