Things that drive you demented in FM/CM

Nope
£60m upfront + some add-on

I meant in terms of what Forest were offering. They might be offering much more than 26 million when you take future incentives into account. Sounds a bit mad though alright.

What club are you managing?

Mars Bar

I've won promotion from League 1 to Championship and am trying to buy players before pre-season but because it's not July 1st yet, it hasn't registered that I've been promoted so players don't think it's a good career move to play in League 1. I've been promoted you dimwits!!!

Liverpool. League champions last 3 seasons, champions league winners last 2. Chelsea not in Europe, last 3 seasons in the league - 9th, 11th, 15th

Reekwind

That's the issue then. IIRC Liverpool are one of Chelsea's in-game rivals. Plus they probably view you as domestic competition. There's clearly a 'reluctance to sell' factor at play here

Ken.

An ex player warns you about a player on the next team you've to play and 7/10 times the guy isn't playing.

I was playing an old edition, maybe ten years ago. I was AC Milan vs Roma. I told Maldini, arguably the worlds greatest defender then, to man mark Batistuta. Said striker went on to score a double hat trick.

Yeah........

You cannot simply 'man-mark' the legendary Argentinian. Them blue eyes would have you trippin up over your laces :pac:

Can't get a job in Fm 14. So infuriating.

I get that all of the time. Play 3-5-2 against 10 men with a 3 man midfield, all of who are semi-professional to my top players and I'm getting overrun.

One that's been driving me mad lately. My captain, who's been at the club longer than all but one other squad member at this stage, was out injured for about four months a season and a half ago. Now every single game he's "having problems blending in with the team".

Wooden Jesus

Since the latest patch at least once a game someone boots a corner straight out for a goal kick. Annoying stuff to watch

Dolph Starbeam

Injuries are insane. I'm not getting one every game but every season I will get at least one long term injury. Wilshere, Ox, Will Hughes and a regen that cost me €65m have all had an injury of at least 5 months in 2 season. They also went from having 5 star potential to 3 or 4 star.

Players clean through on goal but will still decide to shoot from 30 yards also drives me mad.

Liam O

Just had a penalty awarded there, the player who tackled mine was injured so watched the physio come on walk around for a couple of minutes and then do some work on the player. The player walks back onto the field after treatment upto the referee and gets sent off! The whole ordeal took about 3 minutes.

Missed the penalty.

Chelsea: "Hey, want 17m for Smalling?"
Me: "No"
C: "How bout 17m?"
Me: "No"
C: "17m?"
Me: NO

Seriously, 8 transfer bids in the last 8 days, all for 17m. Jose not getting the hint :mad:

Accept it, then when they agree personals and ask you to confirm the transfer cancel it, trolling for the laugh of course, sure Smalling may get his nose put out of joint, he may not, but even if he does it will only be temporary

Anyone having a problem where corner kick takers just hit a curling ball straight out for a goal kick. Happens me almost every game no matter who takes who the corners

2017 in my current run through, playing as Man United.

Not been able to get a striker firing well in any game so far this generation.

60m on a 29 year old Cavani. Finally, something clicks; 15 goals in 12 games, top scorer in the league and Europe, talk of World Golden Ball.

Everything about the ai

Daniel Sturridge getting 90 minutes for the whole season, 4 goals in 35 games, couple of assists. Keep thinking that he'll come good.. Scores 7 goals in last 3 games of season, gets an anterior cruciate ligament injury in last game of season, out for start of next season, decides he wants to leave, back to Chelsea he goes. Suarez reveals he was having an affair with Sturridge, fecks off to Chelsea as well. Followed by Coutinho and Sterling getting pissed off with all the players leaving so they leave. Board gives me sweet feck all to spend, so now I'm trying to win the league with Iago Aspas as my main striker, and Charles N'Zogbia captaining my team.

Needless to say, I'm giving up.
