Ah really? I just abandoned the save, it said you guys had left so I left too.

Maybe we can play one day when SI actually improve their online servers

In fairness to SI, it does all go through Steam. Think we'd need someone with a good connection to host though.

Living in hope.

I have four players with 5 star potential that have come through my youth intake. I took screenshots of them all. Here are those screenshots









They all look outstanding

Fuark, my financial situation is pretty shitty, might have to sell Shaw, Ramirez, Schneiderlin and Wanyama..

Mosor could be a good BBM. Rennes always produce good young players in my games.

What happened? My projection is supposed to be £80m by 2016.  

I signed Januzaj for £35m and am paying £500k a month for him.

Mosor will take over from Feret/Diallo as my new Advanced Playmaker

Hamon will come into the first team as a Complete Forward (I will train him well)

Colin will take over from Romain Danze as my right back

Dumont is currently being tutored by Benoit Costil and will take over as my number 2 in the next couple of seasons and then eventually take over from Costil

 



Offered a new contract in November  

Is that first season Mason? They did the same to me. Was surprised, considering under Cortese he used to leave it til May of my last year.

Same with Rennes, they offered me a contract in early November/late October

Are you sure about playing 15/16 year olds in the first team? Could be good for their development but I'm not sure it will work out.

Yep 1st season. Renewed until June 2018. Hopefully this new contract might presuade the board to rethink the percentage of transfer revenue.

These are the changes that have happened to my team



This is what my main starting team was last season when everybody was fit



now look at it



I just won the French equivalent of the Community Shield though

They aren't playing right now, that is the plan for all of them eventually though

You are playing a network game? I'll join with my QPR team if you are.

We were Pip but we can't get a stable connection.

I desperately don't want to let Rickie Lambert go but he's on £45k a week and he turns in shit performances whenever he plays.

Not bad for first league game of the season



I am very impressed

Perfect round of fixtures, with Liverpool being held and Everton getting slaughtered.

Just need Chelsea to beat Arsenal so i remain right up their arse.

Use wired connection. It's a lot quicker and nullifies the chances of your Internet cutting off spontaneously.

First home game of the season, first chance for Ademi to play in front of his new fans. BANG BANG HAT-TRICK!



Let's look at the stats more closely





DAT PAJOT

Nice win there.

My game is a little crazy. Tottenham 13th, City 14th and Liverpool 16th.  

LOL MY COUNTRY

not a bad group

My favourite thing about FM is when my players just forget how to defend all of a sudden

Gone from dominating teams and making no mistakes in defence, to dominating teams but making mistakes in defence all the time.

Intercepted back passes, defenders out of position, defenders not passing the ball and getting tackled

Toulouse are running away with the title (it is only like October, but they are like 10 points clear)

So close..

3 of your players on the same average ratings.   

Still 2nd is good. What type of budget have you got for next season?
