sharkyvilla Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I did the Champions League, Prem and League Cup treble in my 6th season, even won a penalty shootout in the League Cup final which I was starting to think is impossible. The mobile version is almost a bit too easy really, not that I'm complaining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I've picked it up for free. I don't think I've played a FM game since David O'Leary was Villa manager and bloody hell I'm intimidated by this thing. Do I need to watch ten hours of tutorials before I even start or should I just pick PSG and Google the names of the best twenty wonderkids in the game? Also: If I do get into this does it mean I will become a smug git on Twitter next summer when I've heard of these semi obscure 19 year olds from the Czech Republic who get a move to a Champions League club?

villa4europe Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Not PSG, go with someone else like arsenal or inter, at least a bit of a challenge, I'm currently years in to a great ajax game, a top of the HoF type game, unbeaten in 188 league games... Dont try villa until you're fully familiar with it all, we're ridiculously hard imo And yes, definitely yes, whoever you play as get Esposito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still on the mobile version, I signed Mbappe for £225m plus Badiashile on £500k per week, I think I've got to the point where it's become ridiculous! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I got to say im not enjoying this one. Im city signed grealish for 55m and he is really crap in it. I have set up good tactics for my team. With sterling one side grealish in other and aguero up top. My last 4 results Lost 0-1 to norwich Lost 0-2 to liverpool Lost 0-4 to united 2-2 west ham who are bottom. Its **** shit game so unrealistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Winding mine down, had a great ajax game, with more time I'd reach fergie but as it is I'm about 1500 points off him in the HoF, 10 league titles, 9 cups, 3 CL, the world club cup and the nations league with Holland, I've got the euros coming up which if I win I might get closer to the top and then plough through 2 more years and do it Esposito had 40 goals before Xmas, he's been a machine, about 20 goals off being the eredivisie highest ever scorer Starting 11 is usually Regen Hakimi - regen - onguene - grimaldo Cuisance - szolazbai (sp) Stengs - unuvar - fati Esposito Grimaldo is old and finished so he's leaving, got gravenberch on the bench who is solid, kana who is quality and comes in as DMC for unuvar in big games, kulusevski in rotation on the right and then probably the regen 2nd best striker in the world as back up, did have Havertz for years but Statistically he didn't do anything Went 206 games unbeaten in the league... The club World Cup kept me interested so I did that, then got the Holland job (boadu is awesome) then started the fergie chase so it's easy but I've got the targets to keep me going 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I'm still playing the mobile version and I just got my son coming through the youth system. Never seen that before. He looks a bit shit but I've got Mbappe mentoring him so hopefully some of his brilliance robs off on Our Shaun. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird I assessed the new intake of players and then a bit afterwards I got a message in my inbox saying something along the lines my son has been promoted from the youth set up and to make sure I'm not to show any favouritism to him. He has come through at 18 rather than 16 like the usual youth players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have heard about it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have a player come through with my surname after a couple of seasons but I think that must have just been a random coincidence. Again this isn't the full PC version so might be unique to the mobile version. I've also been appointed the board, been asked to vote on whether to scrap transfer windows, been asked to name the new stadium (which I called Villa Park ) and a few other things.
