  1. I'm a little bit more confident now I know that 3 of their best players are out for them. Cheeky smash and grab, 1-0 to the Villa ( Gabby ). Wouldn't massively grumble at a draw as we seem to be good at getting those lately and they're also desperate for the points and are at home

  2. His lack of impact at West Brom bothers me more than his lack of impact at Man City. Has definitely got some talent but is he that bothered ?

    I'd rather go for someone like Campbell at Arsenal if he's available on loan

  3. I started a new season after getting sacked and it's been pretty mental so far. Wolfsburg brought Gabby of me after I counter offered saying I wanted £20m and they took it ( haha ), Guzan went for £15m to Bayern and have also sold Bent, ( recalled for loan and sold him ), Nzogbia, Baker, Lowton, Kozak, Hutton and Cissoko.

    Have picked up some cracking bargains to replace them in Moralez from Atalanta (£3.5m), Joel Campbell (£2m), Danny Ings (£3.5m), Babacar (£2.5m), Vilhenna (£2.5m), Tolisso (£600k), Gaya (£5.5m), Karius (£3m) and Musa (£8m). Also spent £12m on De Marcos from Bilbao as he's effectively a fast version of James Milner and can play pretty much anywhere.

    6th in the league and have won the league cup on world class. Okore, Delph and Benteke have been class. Great fun so far!

  4. I'm still not sure I'm fully convinced by Kane. He still looks a little clumsy to me and clearly has a bit of a lack of pace. That said, he does show some moments of real quality, is good in the air and is strong and direct too. Be interesting to see if he can keep this form going or if it's a flash in the pan

  5. ----------------Guzan

    Hutton---Vlaar----Clark----Cissokho

    ---------------Sanchez

    --Bacuna----Cleverley-----Grealish

    ----------Gabby----Benteke

    That would be my team as well but in a straightforward 4-4-2. Palace play with 2 quick out and out wingers so need to make sure our fullbacks have got some protection but also need some width ourselves too

  6. Why don't you guys alter the CPU settings and adjust the game?

    I'm playing it on slow with adjusted settings found online and keep tweaking them.

    I have got the CPU error rate bang on. The only thing I need to try and work out is how to adjust how they ALWAYS head clear a corner right to their lone striker.

    It's ridiculous. Also I am playing on professional to get used to controls and finess shots etc again before moving onto world class.

    It definitely looks more real in game play so far.

    Other bug bear is the they go on runs far too much. had Kevin Nolan try and do a Maradonna the yesterday...

    Care to share those settings ? ;)

    I'm playing on world class with some slider settings that are pretty good but would be happy to tweak them

  7. Did anyone see that bit in the first half when the ball was up in the air and about 3-4 players were going for it and he just does this nonchalant little flick to Cleverley ? Had zero impact on the game overall but was a real touch of class

  8. are we playing 4-4-2 with Cleverley out left, by the way?

    I think the reason Delph and Cleverly are playing on opposite sides to normal is because their 2 wide players Johnson and Wickham both play as inverted wingers so are more likely to cut inside

  9. We need to spend big on a quality midfielder. We have a very big break of luck coming up for teams like ours in that all players in Russian League are going to be looking to leave NOW. With 7-8m we can mop up and pull in some quality players.

    There are quality defenders out there to replace Vlaar if need be. Cesar Navas, Salvatore Bocchetti, Serdar Tasci, and many other excellent targets out there.

    In midfield there are players like Jose Manuel Jurado, Patrick Ebert, Tino Costa, Zoran Tosic, Rasmus Elm, Manuel Fernandes, who honestly I think would all be better offensively than our current offensive midfield picks, mostly due to the poor level of our team in that regards.

    There are also big guns we could go after with so many it's not unlikely at least one or two will end in smaller teams. You have Hulk, Witsel, Danny, Tymoshchuk, Maicon, Valbuena, Criscito, and Lombaerts who would make a excellent replacement for Vlaar IMO .

    We need to focus on this it's a excellent chance to bringing in a quality attacking midfielder and that would put our team much more competitive and probably stop our worrying about relegation.

    Some of those names are not realistic at all. One of the problems as well with the Russian League is that quite often players are paid a fortune in wages to go there so are on huge contracts.

    That said, Ivelin Popov who we were quite heavily linked with before is out of contract in 2015 and we could sign him on a pre-contract in January. Wonder if we will go back in for him ?

  10. I'd have picked Bacuna ahead of him all day long. Although he's not as good as Lowton on the ball, his pace and power helps him out of tricky situations and although his positioning can be a bit suspect ( so is Lowton's ) I've rarely seen Bacuna beaten 1v1 as easily as Lowton was on Saturday.
