I’m guessing this had died a death since we’re all so sick of playing with crap teams.
If so how about 4.5 star teams and doing knockout tournament or something. Or a group stage like the champions league and knockout.
We could always pick the current teams in the CL, remove teams like Barca/Real Madrid etc or not and similar?

Liamalone

Yeah, I think it's fell to an arse for the reasons mentioned. I'd be up for a revised league with better teams, pick your own team within a certain star limit or something.

Can I just say if we do set it up again lads go with less teams and only with people that can comit to playing two games a week with no exceptions. Its no fun waiting around for people from one end of the week to the next and i dont mean that in a bad wau to guys that are busy or away during the week but it's too drawn out I've been waiting for 3 weeks to play my sixth game.

Do you mean less games?
I don’t think anyone fancies 42 games playing with Slovakia and the likes etc?

I also suggest we put the times we’re available
Ie I can play mon-Thur 7pm till late as I work Fri-Sun

The number of games doesn't bother me i mean i stead if having 12 players and trying to wait in all them to finish the games have 8 or 10 of players that can play most nights each week.

That's no problem your on nearly 5 days a week so it's easy to get you to fit in a game and its nearly same with me but some players are not home all week and then they out maybe one night the weekend and the person that's free every week night is more then likely going to be out a night or two over weekend so we need players that can play 2 games and are more flexible each week.

Better rated teams might keep people interested alright.

There is definitely 8 of us that play fifa most evenings a week that would be plenty for a fun league.

But yeh better teams would be good I think we should all suggest the 8 or 10 teams to use then randomize them instead if randomising what teams to use also.

Lets not drag it out for 20 games or so just in case people lose interest?
Maybe 2 groups of 4 with top 2 going to knockout?

And I vote for Napoli?

Shanee.

I’ll 100% play but can only be at the weekend. Have been extremely busy the last 2 weekend so haven’t got around to playing you Jayo. People have obviously lost interested as the teams are crap

Should we maybe create a different topic, in case the original league comes back? Rather than cluttering it all into one thread?

Anyway, sign me up for whatever. I'm usually on during the day time, though evenings can be a bit rough. I can sometimes organise times if people are accurate with their times though.

Carroller

Sorry lads I've been absolutely flat out the last few weeks and with getting a new phone I haven't had a good chance to update the old league table. But as said above maybe 20 off games with a 3/4 star team was a push. I'm in for playing I'm shift work so varies also but I think a cup tournament would run much smother and quicker. With loser of the first games put into a shield or something if there was enough peoplw

Pop your name and times into the thread
These are the list of 4.5 clubs. Some are just barely 4.5 ie Atheltic or Villarreal. The rest I think are nicely tuned with a few fast teams like Napoli, Liverpool and Dortmund in there but have weaker defenses so might balance out. Thoughts?

4.5 star teams
Arsenal
Liverpool
Spurs
Monaco
Dortmund
Inter
Lazio
Milan
Napoli
Roma
Athletic Bilbao
Sevilla
Valencia
Villarreal

probably makes sense.
Lets see if we get 8 players who play regularly if not 12 and we can take the format then after that.

jayo26

We have even six there now if no one else cone along i next day or so it would be a nice short league hopefully.
finish before Christmas.

One more and we’re sorted
We need to be strict on times.
For each fixture post the time you’re available in this thread for the fixture and the same for your opponent.
Follow the thread as we don’t want to be waiting for a fixture to be complete outside a week etc.

Ok I think we’ll schedule this for after Xmas and we have 8 people then.
I’ll narrow down the list of teams so we all have pretty good ones to make it more even

Is it league or knockout youre doing

A bit of both.
2x groups of 4 with 3 matches and top 2 in each go to semi finals etc?
What do people think of that? Not too much and we can see how it goes ?

We could even start it tonight and over the weekend if people thought they could manage it?

Fuzzy Logic

Just throwing it out there instead of listing the teams would it be better to choose our own teams up to 4.5 stars that may suit outside of the list?

Edit: don't mind me, I understand the reason for picking 8 teams to draw us one. I need coffee

jayo26

I'll take Dortmund if no one else wants them

Have a look at this site lads if you are interested in playing in Leagues which I play in:

http://fifaleaguemanager.com/

First off, its free. Its a bit like a combination of Championship Manager and FIFA. There are 2 PS4 divisions and 3 Xbox Divisions, run
2/3 seasons per FIFA, promotion, relegation etc. When you are admitted to the league you are given a team, random players, different levels. You can then transfer in and out players trading with other managers for virtual money. You earn this money by getting "paid" for different event nights that are run sporadically throughout the season. Last week for example was a golden goal tournament using the Women's teams randomly drawn. Depending on which division you are in you have around 36 fixtures, which you organise with your fellow managers to get played at mutually suitable times.

If you are interested hit me up, my gamertag on Xbox is same as on here. Join the site and go to the Introduce Yourself thread and play some friendlies so your level can be assessed to determine what division you should go into.

Looks very interesting. It is 36 games or so over the year?

Usually they get 3 seasons in over a year of FIFA, although it looks like because of a late start this FIFA of a reorganisation of the leagues there will only be two "seasons".

I joined about 6 months ago after getting fed up raging against the cheesy opponents in FUT. Mics are mandatory in the leagues so I usually end up in a party most nights with 7/8 other guys from the leagues playing friendlies. It never feels as bad losing to someone who you are talking to.

I like the management aspect of it, trying to get in players to suit your formation, negotiating with other managers.

Anyone but pool do me.

I got Inter stupid draw
Suggest we go 3 games for each group with the top 2 qualifying for semi-final knockout etc.
Top team in each group players the 2nd placed team in the opposite group in the semis.
Is everyone ok with this?
I went with this random generator as not sure what people was using? pen and paper maybe
I don't think we need a fixture list? We should all know what we have to play as its small enough.

Group 1
Inter Blazer (Airblazer)
Spurs Liamalone (Liamalone) 
Napoli Shanee. (S h 4 n 3 k)
Monaco Carroller ( Penguins Haooo)


Group 2
