  2. Hey Tigerman - modelcitizen answered that question earlier in the thread:
  3. 2 left feet, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
  4. Clive English - Back to the motherland - APOP Geroskipou 2037/38 Season Review Despite winning the league, Clive still had his suspicions about the refereeing in Cyprus. Going back over the stats for penalties, he saw that Omonoia were given a massive 17 penalties over the season, and APOEL and Nea Salamina both picking up 15 over the season. The mystery in corruption was now a shut and closed case in Clive's eyes. Because of APOEL's performances in Europe, there was now an automatic group stage position in the Champions League opened up. If Geroskipou could win the league next season, a much easier route into the millions would open up. Harnwell's buyout clause was sold to increase the clubs bank account by £282,000. Iosifidis was now the club's most capped player. In terms of goalscoring, Blichfeldt had a breakout year with 41, and Leiva left the club on a positive note, as he grabbed 26 assists over his final season before leaving on a free transfer.
  5. February 2029 We continued our sluggish start in the league with two defeats against Estudiantes and Argentinos Jrs. After that we picked up our form with three straight wins, including an impressive away performance at Boca where we dominated the match. The draw against Defensa y Justicia was fair and hard fought and we seem to be back on track and closer to fighting for the top 6. In the Copa Argentina we waltzed past Patronato in a very entertaining game to make it to the 6th Round. Transfers Out Some loans out to help developing players and in the case of Luján and Figueredo take the opportunity to loan out fringe players who would have complained at some point anyway. Next Fixtures Our group was confirmed after Millonarios beat Botafogo in the last Qualifying Round. I am glad we dont have my former club and two Brazilians in the Group. Millonarios will probably be competing for second place with us as I see Fluminense a class above us both. The month will be busy as we start this campaign, some of the league games look kinder this month so hopefully we can balance domestic and continental football effectively.
  6. Season 2066/ 67 Okay, here's news from the Earl, we won the EFL One at last and go back to the Championship after the surprise promotion 10 years ago (!!). Okay, we're back after ten years. I still have some players in my team from that year. Loric Kalala has been our hottest prospect those days and couldn't leave too early, always demanding a move for a PL side. Guess what, he captained the team that gained promotion again this year. Maybe it was the best year we'd played so far. The Earl of Grey dived into tactics before the season started and showed a balanced 433 fluid counter-attacking style of play. After we managed to reach the top spot he changed it into a possession but still balanced counter-press. The key aspect has been to tinker with OI's, turning off the oppositions attack and spotting the weaknesses in defense. Well, it worked wonderful. Billericay leads in lowest final third passes and is in the top 5 of all relevant defensive statistics. We only lost one League game in September, two in October and the last one in December. Our Goalie Turkish Taner Subasi is named a favourite for the Player of the year award. The offense worked as well, striker James Graham won the Goal Scorer Title (27 goals), at last the lad is producing again. He had some tough years but this one has been his best so far. James Graham, he is on his way becoming a legend. Rhys Platt would be proud of him. Loric Kalala, he's been with us the last time we were promoted into Championship and is now the Captain of that bunch. Clearly our best man since years. Always on the move to bigger club but somehow we kept hold of him. He has been injured a lot this year. He is a player who delivers. In the youth team days he managed to score 10 goals in just one league game, now he's with the first team. His stats seem not that brilliant, lacking speed, strength, off the ball but as soon he's on the pitch he gets his engines running. My man! I hope he can cope with championship football. Our Goalie, Taner Subasi, check on his bravery (6) but our keeper for years. We had a better one but sold him for 5 Millions to cover money drain. Well Taner it is the, he's nominated for the Player of the Year award. Player to watch: Lorne McPhee, he's been nominated for England U20s for his first time. He is a very, very promising defender.
  7. Well, this changes the outlook dramatically. Full suite of upgrades in progress and I'll be able to resign my players to full time contracts.

  10. Thanks! Great advises! I changed it and as you say the high pressing with RPM was the reason. I had to use him higher up as well as: Shadow striker. So he is more where the transtions happens. I also added a DLP with Eriksen against weaker teams behind him. The results is good. I also tweaked the some other roles: So far we have won against: Arsenal, draw Liverpool (with 10 players) and won against Napoli.
  11. Today
  12. No idea. But, I tend to look at a range of stores anyway and just recommend what is best value that I see and it kinda goes in waves. When I started doing recommendations a few years ago, PC Specialist often came up cheaper than pre-builds, and for quite a while until recently pre-builds were coming in a lot cheaper. Currently it's fairly comparable, so in those cases a custom build is going to win because you won't get the manufacturer bloatware included. I also used to like using box.co.uk for latops because their search function was far better than all the other stores, but then they became uncompetitive before going into administration! They are back again, but I'm a little bit wary about them given their recent struggles.

  14. Yes OK right, this line up is better indeed. As previous people said, did you try to micro manage players ? But to be honest, I don't really how to make things work with Marseille on first season. Just... bite the bullet and try to make it until summer mercato to get rid of dead woods and do a proper scouting session.

  16. I believe it should be available somehow through your previous purchases/owned apps - I'll have to ask someone from QA to explain it more fully as I'm afraid at the moment I only have an iPhone/iPad and I'm wary of talking you through it in case something has changed since I last used the android store myself.
  17. Clive English - Back to the motherland - APOP Geroskipou May 2038 As the league was over before the month was even started, Clive used the oppertunity to finish the season off experimenting with different rotations of players. This started poorly, as the trip to Omonoia ended in a 1-1 stalemate. The next week, Clive rotated once again to save players from suspension for the upcoming final. This seemed to work, as Nea Salamina were beaten 2-0, with Eiriksson getting a brace for a now rare start. The cup final was covered in the previous post, but just as a recap, Geroskipou managed a 2-1 extra time win against their new rivals APOEL to win the double. For the final game of the season, a tired Geroskipou team travelled to face a tired APOEL side. The game finished 1-1, with Mariano grabbing the only goal for Geroskipou, who were unfortunate not to finish their season off with a win. Final Table When all was said and done, Geroskipou had won their maiden First Division title by a massive 10 points ahead of the chasing pack led by APOEL. It was a sweet moment for Clive being given a guard of honour for them in the final game. The win had also broken APOEL's streak of 13 straight league wins. News Clive had also managed to squeeze his way into the Cyprus HOF for managers. The list contained mainly APOEL managers to no suprise. But now his sights were set on reaching the top.
  18. I wonder if PC Specialist would consider a "sponsored" link which gave people a small discount and donated to charity... Or another PC builder of course
  19. Nope, no sponsored links here! I'd feel bad resorting to that, it'd be like I was doing it for the wrong reasons lol. The exception to that is my affiliate link I have for when the game itself comes out, which last year the SI forum mods allowed me to post, But nothing like that when it comes to this thread, as it'd feel kinda underhanded. A few people have offered to Paypal stuff to me as well, but I've always refused and asked them to donate to charity instead.
  20. Hello @Watkins_fmsite When loading up your save file this did not occur for me. Reiss Nelson, Anthony Gordon, Raphinha and Joe Willcock all went for the correct fees that was listed in their contracts.
