Read the second line.

You know you're fucked when that's the case.

I won the FA Cup on penalties.

One of the most exciting games I've played. Second leg is set up really nicely for me now, any win will see me in the CL final.

The return leg was even better!

At 1-2 I was getting really pissed off, thought Craig Dawson had fucked it for me. Got a goal back through the counter and though "fuck it, I'm not going to win it if it goes to ET" so just set out an attacking formation and went for it.

OM won the CL last year too, so they're a good team.

oh boy..... oh boy..



time to roll up em sleeves

don't think i've ever lost that bad in any FM, PES, or FIFA game

omg what?! i didn't even get to play until the next match because they fired me! wtf! first time i ever got sacked in FM. all because of one match?! its a shit derby no one even cares about. i beat the likes of barca for crying out loud and despite the 0-7 loss against napoli, roma was still on track on winning the treble! we're still 11 points ahead of 2nd place in the league! and not to mention the 2 scudetto's, 1x italian cup, 2x european cups i've won for roma over the past 2 1/2 seasons

....

reload.... sigh. if i get sacked again, i'm quitting this save. or better yet, hell maybe i'll join lazio

poor Schnix

I want to be 1860 Munchen because of the Youth Facilities and that, but then again Stuttgart also have good youth facilities

Manchester United drew with Spurs! I'm a point clear with one to play.

i looked up napoli on the editor. apparently FM takes the napoli v roma derby very seriously even though IRL no fans on either team really gives a shit. but still, even though i lost 0-7, that shouldn't result in an immediate sacking. it's unrealistic. it's like the 2nd game i've lost in like over a hundred matches

First time Roma sacked me I got knocked out of the Europa League first knock out round by Manchester United

Apparently that was unheard of. At that point I had prioritized the league so I was pretty much sitting 2nd trying to play catch up to the impossibly good AC Milan.

replayed napoli. won 3-1. meh...

I'm also on the club icons list!

Started my Crewe save again. I hadn't saved it for a while.
Also I wanted to make a new manager.
I called him Glen Matthews.

I think I may have got there with QPR but can't quite remember.

Yaya Sanogo definitely did, he had like 150 goals in 180 games.

12.2.1 update now out.

Nothing much then.

Fair play to Hutchinson.
He came back from injury.

i hate how "instant-star" regens come out of nowhere

i have lamela, who's been slowly progressing over 3 seasons and finally starting to make his first apps (and goals) for national team and having a successful season with roma. trains hard, works hard

then suddenly a 21 year old Argentine regen winger with a 151 CA comes out of nowhere, plays for some obscure lower division Argentine club, and gets selected over Lamela in the national team

You know what's fucking hilarious.

When the transfer window started I went looking for a young CB to be Zouma's partner for the future, my two options where Johan Martial and Willy Boly, Johan was my first choice so I enquired about him and Stade Brestois wanted €20 million and they wouldn't budge, so I decided to get Willy for €1.3 million from the recently relegated Auxerre.

Now it's the start of the new season and Stade Brestois offered be Martial for €1.6 million.

Did you buy him as well?

Think my steam account might have been hacked...


Hope not!

Really want to turn a average prem side into world beaters but I've not got the tactics for it.

I fail at FM.
