All I'm saying is that there is absolutely no reason to have loads of players in your squad that will never get a game. Youths aside tho!
With smaller squads, you actually have to manage your team. You won't have 70 player to choose from so it makes it more interesting.
And it opens up the transfer market again and makes the game fun again.
The game world is dying and seriously needs a shake up!
Sure it will be hard to enforce a squad cap rule but it will make the game fun again!!

Game engine supposedly fixed, feeling worried.

I get where you're coming from, but "fun" is subjective.

90% of the fun I have from this game right now is scouting and signing obscure players. The game engine is so hit-and-miss, I try not to let results dictate my enjoyment. I tend to cycle my team regularly, but even that has limits.

But going on obscure websites, reading who is scouting who, who is rumoured to be after some weird player from the Czech leagues....thats where I find the fun in the game right now. And if squad caps came in now, after all that time researching, and buying players and following them in the real world....that would kill 90% of the fun for me

thisyear

Well lads, relatively new and playing with the mighty Wolfsburg. only suggestion I'd have is the transfers. It is a killer starting out and trying to build a team. I've lots of cash at mo but don't bother looking too much as nobody puts a lot of value on it. Need to figure out some way of making players accessible. Nearly gave up before Wolfsburg but squad is ok so by playing a bit with it at least not getting bet week in week out.

With 2 away games to come next we could have done with a home win to kick the second half of the season off but concession of a late goal means Malaga have to settle for 1 all draw with Valencia.

Just 2 more points for theoretical safety!

The mind games start, your username is very apt!

Speaking of usernames think it's time for Panathinaikos to upgrade his and add an "Extra" to his current one!!

Now you're dragging me into your mind games;) we're screwed soon anyway once they fix the match engine and realise how bad the players actually are.

AS Roma beat Barcelona 3 - 1 in their Division 1 fixture.
Hernanes scored a brace and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.
Gervinho was also on the scoresheet for his side.

Boom.


We're quietly going about our business in Rome and are now in sixth, still only nine points clear of relegation though, but with a considerable amount of of teams between us and those dreaded relegation positions.

We're also 19 points behind the runaway leaders! :eek:
