2 nil win against 2nd placed Everton with yet another player sent off keeps us within touching distance of the playoffs

Wilberto

Does anyone else find that the game literally refuses to low your forwards to score goals? It's genuinely getting ridiculous at this stage.

Bas Dost gets a bucket load of shots every game in this league - yet to score (a league goal)
Origi gets a bucket load of shots every game (last season) in HAIeTWATWTL?! (only five 5 goals all season)
Had Tevez up front in the Copa League hitting a bucket load of shots every game - rarely scored.
Had several stikers up there in The Good League getting bucket loads of shots every game - (each of them rarely scored) - (38 year old Luca Toni seems to be the exception at the moment bizarrely)

I'm sure there are more examples as well. It's getting pretty frustrating at this stage and I could well be leaving in approximately 104 days time.

Nah. Ive lukaku on 8 and carrasco and martial on 5 each

KERSPLAT!

Firmino on 7, Muller on 4, Icardi on 2.

Firmino is on the wing most of the time so maybe you're right, not something I've noticed though. I've Lewa in one or two leagues and he's always on fire up front. Costa has 24 in 29(16) in the Copa, Muller is short there with 7 in 21 though. Reus is 4 for 4(3) in another... No issues for me it seems, my 10s always chip in it seems

This max bid changing of newly added players at the last minute is fair annoying!

Griezmann last season....


Complete joke. Not exactly on fire this season either

Needs a move, a change of pace if you will. I hear Dortmund are looking to offload Götze and maybe one or three others ... :pac::pac::pac::pac::pac::pac::pac::pac:

SL Benfica outclassed Newcastle United and thrashed them 6 - 0 in their The Boards.ie League Shield Round 2 fixture.

Modeste scored a brace and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.

Choupo-moting and Boufal were also amongst the goalscorers.

A record cup win against a severely NMF Newcastle.

At least my 2nd string can win a game

Le Reserves have earned them selves another 90mins!

FC Porto outclassed Chivas de Guadalajara and beat them 3 - 0 in their The Boards.ie League Shield Round 2 fixture.
Mitrović scored a goal and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.
Deulofeu and Zouma were also amongst the goalscorers.

Competition Message

Borussia Dortmund beat Manchester United 6 - 5 in a penalty shootout after a 1 - 1 draw in their The Boards.ie League Shield Round 2 fixture.

Navas was on the scoresheet for his side. First pelanty shoot out a team of mine has won in 100 years.

Colemania

Udinese reserves with a 3 nil win against the first team of Division 2 leaders Spartak Moscow in the cup. Not too Xabi Alonso!

JamboMac

Forgot about the cup again, but beat the mighty atletico Madrid 2-1.

Ah I don't think I'll let the little French lad go just yet!

Kagawa will be on the market soon though

My 88s reward for beating "bye" and Chivas respectively is a date with Taylor Swift ... in my gaff.

Not my cuppa that Swift one but unless we get Charlize Theron, Amy Adams or Mila kunis managing a team any time soon, she'll have to do

Blasphemer!

I did a cash deal with Liverpool!

Its only a small deal but he has been linked with the Toon ( I know, I know) ... I'm hoping this will open the door for bigger deals

GT_TDI_150

Guys,...

Frello Jorginho ... any good?

I've got a team of 86-87's with one 92.

I was offered Frello + lots of cash ( enough to get 3 * 88s in to strenghten my team.

Just want to be sure Frello is decent

I love checking the values and ratings of the young players in the player search option. Delighted this morning when I seen cruzeiro have 7 of the top ten rated 18 year olds and under.
It's the little things like this that keep me enthralled in the game rather than results

Lads,

Who fancies a bit of friendly (real life) football banter?

I do the Sky Sports 'Soccer Saturday Super 6' and I'm creating a league which willing participants can join.

So what you need to do if you are interested is:

Get the Super 6 app (not sure if it can be done via the site)
Register - it's FREE to play
Join my league (code: 347GN5)
Predict score in 6 games each weekend and predict the time of earliest goal in those 6 games
Have bants with other managers here (I'll get a thread created for this if there is enough interest)

Go on, you know you want to

eh i dunno

I'll join. Play it every week anyways.

Anyone selling a decent attacking midfielder? I might as well try and bring in another one and go with three of them behind just the one striker given that my strikers couldn't hit a donkey's arse with a frying pan on the best of days.
