When I first played FM I lost the title to Liverpool and I was truly gutted, I couldn't speak to my mum for like 30 mins

It's the most stressful game ever when you're doing shit

I'm in the Champions League final against City, no way am I ruining my fantastic debut season to them

David Stockdale rejected me for Man City's bench.

Tell us how many reloads were required, k?

Rooney got injured 2 months ago for 4 months and so was Cleverley, but Cavani has scored over 50 goals

Mark Dzeko.

Fuck the January transfer window, I have 12 players wanted by other clubs.

Newcastle want £12m for Krul..

Rosi also has the most fouls/yellows/reds out of any player in my team. thats why he's a backup player ;D. he only played 60 minutes in Barcelona and that's only because Zuniga got injured

Zuniga is my first choice WBR and starts practically every game. i might sell him at the end of the season and go with Gary Medel. he provides better work rate, versatility, and is better defensively. i still don't feel Crescenzi/Nego are ready yet

i only reload to undo injuries/suspensions....

wins 15-0 against Barcelona, BRILLIANT WIN!!!!, Paloschi scores all 15 of them
... but Totti is suspended for the CL final, ^&*($%#@$, reloads game

OMFG Stekelenburg gets a fucking hattrick!!!!!
.... fuck, De Rossi is injured and will miss the CL final... $%^&* reload

just exaggerations lol, but i've thrown away good games before just to undo a suspension/injury. i'm too afraid to use FMRTE because it crashes saves and corrupts random data. had it happen before in FM10 and i was devastated

Do you still need to pay for FMRTE?

I keep injuries because it feels pointless having a squad otherwise.

The only thing I reload for is if I fuck up a contract negotiation on a player I care about.

I donated 50p and got it.

oh i keep injuries all the time. i only reload if a player becomes unavailable for an important match that i don't want him to miss, like a final or a derby

usually it's only Totti/DeRossi who gets this "treatment" from me

Tight cunt.



It's not the paying for it that's the issue, I've not got a CC and fuck asking my Mum/Dad for theirs.

use Genie Scout, it's free and it's better, and it doesn't fuck up your database

i actually donated out of good-heartedness

I downloaded it before but have absolutely no fucking idea how to use it.

Premier league team of the year
Aguero CM?

it's simpler than FMRTE -__-

he probably plays AM a lot for Man City instead of FC. Totti gets CM in the Serie A TOTY all the time

The website where you download it is down.

Can someone post a link to geniescout, thanks.

this is the official site to download genie scout, works fine for me

http://www.fmscout.com/a-fm-genie-scout-12.html

genie scout gives you a "PD" rating for each player, which is a % rating of how likely the player will continue to develop. it depends on his match fitness, age, professionalism, natural fitness, ambition, and probably a bunch of other hidden stuff

FMRTE does not provide you with a "PD" rating. you'd be surprised to find that a bunch of 30-35 year olds on genie scout that can still develop (or at least maintain): taddei, srna, heinze, etc.

genie scout can also give you the potential stats of a youngster or regen so you can see what his finishing/stamina/passing/etc stats will look like in 10 or so years

Back at my normal stadium in Crawley now and making money. United were sniffing around the regen I got from Crewe (David Park) but I signed him to a new contract.

I have West Ham now, they're top of the table. Have nolan, sigurdsson etc, gonna get fucked.

What a great season my team had, we've almost won every honour out there.

U MAD WEST HAM?

This game is too easy to keep hold of players.

All the top players want my best youth players, but it is so easy to keep them.

Wish FM was more realistic.
