"Trying" being the operative word! :pac: :P

Indeed. I'll get the hang of it one of these threads ...

Colemania

Up against my old division 3 rivals tonight in Sporting Lisbon. Haven't beaten him in all 3 of our meetings and knowing my form, it'll be another loss tonight!

mackeire

1st v 2nd in div 2 tonight. spartak moscow v palermo.
last time it was 7-3 to moscow. hoping for more of that but i'd take a 1-0er :cool:

Al Capwned

van Persie's -2 coming at just the right time as I have them at hom ein the league tonight.

Now watch as he scores 4.

Boom baby. Sung Yeung Ki gets his bump to 89. I now have two 89s in my team. All I'm waiting for now is for Steven N'Zonzi to follow suit!!

Could see this coming a mile away - an assist machine for Swansea last season - which is why I tried to sign him - which you rejected - which means I now hate you - cool?

Did you try to sign him? I honestly don't remember.

Although, that's probably because I just saw an offer for Ki and just rejected it straight away as he's one of my best performers this season! That is until he decided to hack a player down and get suspended for three games meaning I'm going to have a weakened midfield for tonight's match with N'Zonzi also out through injury.


I'll do a straight swap with you for Willian if you want? :P :pac:

Throw in Vergini (AKA the Alp of Sunderland) and we have a deal

KERSPLAT!

Come on Bayern!!! Badly in need of a win, with my form its a definte loss with everyone else winning around me

GLaDOS

Top two in the 2nd division facing off, good opportunity for myself to try grab an automatic spot.

eh i dunno

Lost as usual

GLaDOS

The match ended 1 - 1 between SL Benfica and Liverpool in their Division 2 fixture.

Cabaye was on the scoresheet for his side.

Can't complain with a draw really, pool had the better of the stats and missed a peno at the end to win it.

Dzeko out for 2 weeks

KERSPLAT!

Aguero brace gets me back on track, Barca win takes them 2nd 3 points behind me. On the home stretch now!

Hercule Poirot

This game is a complete donkey cock sometimes....

Vital win!

FC Porto beat Chelsea 2 - 1 in their Division 1 fixture.
Wimmer and Nainggolan were amongst the goalscorers.

Comic Book Guy

A brace from Luis Muriel gets us a first win in 3 over Chivas.

Playing 5th place Fenerbache next, a must win.

Ordinary man

Panathinaikos beat Celtic 1 - 0 in their Division 3 fixture.
Falqué scored the winner for Panathinaikos and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.

Another scraped win keeps us limping ahead of the chasing pack. At this stage any win is massive

I know, I felt that last season with psg on the top div 2 the whole season ended up in the playoffs.

The whole?? Really???? Seem to remember spending 5-6 turns there myself but whatever.....


Anyhow, 2-0 win for Lazio tonight, too little too late in terms of a playoff spot, 5 points outside and injuries and another red is not helping!

JamboMac

Once again I defeat the mighty Dortmund, should be fun with the amount of players I have out for the next match.

Paris Saint-Germain beat Borussia Dortmund 2 - 0 in their Division 1 fixture.
Mandžukić scored a goal and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.
Chantôme was also on the scoresheet for his side.

Colemania

1 all draw to Sporting Lisbon and my first point against them ever with that!

Oh lord don't drag that over here....

3-1 win v United, van Persie putting them one up, as (nearly) predicted. 3pts back now.... Push is on.

Estudiantes de LP beat Portsmouth 3 - 1 in their Division 3 fixture.
Ntep scored a brace and was later voted Man of the Match for his performance.
Kashia was also on the scoresheet for his side.

The win, thanks to Roma loanee Ntep nicely stepping up to fill the boots of the suspended Ki, keeps us one point behind the aforementioned Panathinaikos. However, I'm conscious of the fact that I'm 21 goals better off than them.

Come on, we can do this!

I'm delighted that Muriel scored given that he was my signing. Both himself and Schar!

Wanyama got +1'd to 89

Wanyama got position change from D,DM,MC to DM,MC

why don't we waste resources on some stupid single player game and still have a crap search function, crap text commentary and don't get me started on holiday mode..

Lord TSC

Going to look over my backups. Bolaise and Mane both got bumps to 88 and 89 respectively, so might look at who I can move on to bolster elsewhere.

Meanwhile, while Pedro is up for sale, his links to Man United have dented my hopes to sell him ASAP; he's more valuable to me as a United player if he moves

FC Porto outclassed Chelsea and beat them 2 - 0 in their SMFA Shield Quarter Final Leg 1 fixture.
Zieler had an impressive game and was voted Man of the Match.
Balotelli was on the scoresheet for his side.

On the positive side ... my hoard of 87s keeps growing after Bentaleb got +2'd

baza Rakus

Soldado drops again -1 to 89

Remember when he was the third best striker in La Liga? Argubly the best striker (As calling Ronaldo and Messi mere "strikers" doesn't really do justice to the breath of their play and movement on the park)

Give the reserves a chance in the league.

I was dropping high rated players for Icardi this season when he was banging goals in. I don't think it's all about having the highest rated team on the field, I'm not exactly how it works but it doesn't seem to be that!!

Ah, I wouldn't worry. At least there all but guaranteed to be a Division 1 club next season so that's good. Also, they still have a very real shot at qualifying for the Europa League equivalent.

dunno if anyone else has this theory but i notice that if you do transfers to freshen up your starting 11 at certin points in the season you actually win more games......it works for me anyway.

Yeap. 88 rated Kane has a better scoring rate than 91 rated Llorente for me.

I'm leaning more towards them being man u fans, all a players needs is to be linked and they get an automatic +2 and if a player leave them he get a -1 within a week. one thing that's a nailed on cert is that they have it in for pogba which again leads me to believe they're bitter man u fans and I'm not saying cause I own pogba, it's blatantly obvious he's one of the best midfielders in the world but sh!te midfielders like fellaini or scheiderlin will get a 93/94 rating before him :mad:

If Valencia doesn't drop in this review then it will totally validate your theory....
