Bedese Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 I'm really digging this 4-1-4-1. We outplayed Kobenhavn big time, should have scored a couple, and had a goal ruled out for offside that wasn't. Onto the away leg! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bedese Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 Notice the goalscorer? @Jimbokav1971 has had his keepers banging in free kicks for a while (and has a theory on why they're pretty good at them), and our new tactic was winning us loads of free kicks that we couldn't convert. I decided to give Muraccini a chance with them, and he absolutely drilled one into the top corner. We're back in the groups Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here it is: There's a few players that have no business being there at all (the LCB and LB in particular), but it actually looks pretty good. Problem is, I took a two month break from this save in the middle and FM removes nicknames when players retire, so I genuinely have no clue who a lot of the players actually are 1 hour ago, Bood said: And if the right back has had a growth spurt, or still makes Valbuena look like Peter crouch He's up to 5'1!

Bedese Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 Here's our current keeper: He is, very clearly, the best player we've ever had at the club. He's easily good enough to play at a higher level, and he knows that, because he won't sign a new contract. His runs out in a year, and we're probably going to lose him on a free. He also has four goals this season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so many anymore, but we were getting bids of 150k for him from some Greek/Belgian teams a while back. I'm resigned to losing him on a free this summer now, but I'd rather use him for as long as we could and lose him for nothing than make 150k but not have him for three years that we could have.

Bedese Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Youth Intake Day! Hello... I was expecting a bit more than this, to be honest. He's two footed, and has some decent stats, but nothing really stands out. It's all going to depend on how much he can grow. Now him, I can get behind He looks very tidy, and I think we've now solved our CB problem Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocke Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Really like the look of Berardi (80b) too, he's got some very nice physicals for his age and his Team Work and Work Rate are pretty superb. Obviously got work to do (3 Composure and 5 Decisions seems a bit suspect) but I can definitely see him being a mainstay in the team for a long time if he develops decently, especially since you're pretty lacking at CB otherwise Nice that he's coming in only a year later after Della Valle (79a) too, hopefully the two of them will have a lot of time to form a good partnership at the back Bit weird that Morone (80a)'s supposedly built to be a target man (and to be fair 13 Heading is quite solid) but he has 5 Bravery... Definitely has some very nice attributes on there though, like the 14 Acceleration and 12 Off the Ball (14 determination ain't bad out of the box, either), but you're right in that it depends on how much potential he'll end up having since it seems like you're only playing one striker at the moment and you already have a few decent ones?
