daylight Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Time for a new season and after a successful season last term and a couple of new faces I am hopeful I can win everything there is to win. 1st game is the community shield..ok no biggie but I do want to try and win everything......seems the game has other idea's.. 8 players on international duty and 3 injuries means I can only field 4 of my 1st team,I have followed football all my life(now 38) and have never seen a team playing in the community shield with most of there 1st team away on international duty. Makes matters even worse is I am playing Man Utd and not 1 of there players away on international duty...seems very odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackJCFC Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Can you not withdraw your players from the international squad? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daylight Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 Nope there was no option as it is not a friendly,I can;t help but laugh at the thought if this happened in real life what Wenger and SAF would make of it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cplpeters1900 Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Its because the game doesnt register the olympics as a major tournament and games dont get rearranged for it and you obviously have a fair few u23s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 The community shield has not been kind to me either. As Liverpool manager I got thumped 6-1 by arch rivals Man United even though I had the likes of Reina, Gerrard, Carragher & Carroll in the team. Hopefully that awful display by my team isnt a sign of things to come in the forthcoming season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krald Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Yeah I had that because of the olympics, was very frustrating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daylight Posted May 14, 2011 Author Share Posted May 14, 2011 Well it turned out the match was bitter sweet for me. Having had to play a few 1st team guys a few reserve's and a few youths on the bench I did not fancy my chances,things got worse when it came up that if I avoided defeat then that would be a new record and 25 match's unbeaten. Being the Steam achievement seeker that I am I was gutted as this is 1 I have not gotten yet(30 match's unbeaten).. Though the guys on the park did great and we somehow got a 0-0...we did lose on penalties 5-4 but the achievement only goes for 90 mins so we march on.....2 games into the new season and I have only gotten 2 of those players back from international duty but I have signed 2 more and the achievement is in sight. This really should be something that the devs look at though,amazed that it got through 3 patch's without a fix. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjm Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I hope I don't come across as a complete prat, but an apostrophe indicates possession (John's hat = the hat belonging to John); just add an s without any punctuation to make the plural (or -es or -ies if necessary): matches, reserves, patches. Apostrophes are also used if something is missing (rock 'n' roll, eight o' clock, don't etc.). I'm sorry, but being an editor/proofreader I just can't help it :| Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
