    Ryan Babel has 13 goals and 4 assists in 16 matches from inside forward. Superb.

    Viktor Fischer's form is very promising, 6 goals in 6 starts. Training him as a striker. 4.5* potential.

    Doing pretty well in Europe with Metalist. Got drawn with Lazio, Tottenham and Anzhi. After 4 games I've beaten them all and drawn once, with Lazio.

    Lagging behind a bit in the league due to my fixture congestion being the only 'big' club from the league left in the cup.

    Le PSG is being frustrating. Can someone explain to me how you can get a team to play according to their tactics and actually pass to each other before the end of the season?

    i finally renamed Martin Olsson and Marcus Olsson to "Big Olsson" and "Lil Olsson"

    i keep confusing the two of them (they play the same damn position) and i keep starting Marcus Olsson by accident, costing me a few goals

    just beat Burnley in the 2013 FA Cup Semi Final. i'm through to the finals now where i'll play either Chelsea or West Ham. cmonnnnn West Ham... how do i get into Europa League via FA Cup? do i have to win it? or just be in the final?

    You have to win it.

    Finally found out what's messde up with my team. My assistant was taking over training and was putting effort to "very low" and always focused on something as pointless as attacking set pieces... He is so sacked next summer.

    If the winner of the FA cup gets into the champions league, don't you get a place in the EL? I think that happened when Stoke lost the FA cup to City.

    How on earth did they have the money for all of them? Neymar is easily 40M+, Hamsik at least 20M, the same with Dede and Menez is 15M. that's 95-100M pounds.

    it's all about pace/acceleration in the FM13 match engine again

    it's so painful watching nuno gomes play. he's so slow it's so easy to dispossess him

    I play him Attacking winger and his pace and flair just carries him through the games because he gets so many chances, so it works.

    CARROLL DA GAWDDDDD!

    I don't get it, there's nothing about that stat profile that would indicate a good player :/

    Edit:

    I thought managing PSG would give me access to money... but this damn CEO won't give me a penny.

    it happens once in a while. sometimes you get a shit player that just happens to do well consistently. i love those. i usually get about one every year. they have shit attributes and shit CA, but they just happen to do well

    Lukovic in FM10, Paolucci in FM11, Pettinari in FM12, none so far in FM13

    I had my first game as England boss. The difference between Rafael and Johnson was frightening, Johnson was unbelievably slow.
