Ardja's only win came against me in a game I should have won about 4-1 according to Xg. 

 

The team just need to trust the process. 

 

@Bruce Spanner please do not saying anything to any of my players, as morale is in the balance at the minute, however, should I want to completely break up the team and also play a different formation from Jan, is this possible or is formation locked in. 

I can’t change everything, but I can change some including formation.

 

But it has to be at fixed points or it’ll be a pain. So now, Start of Jan for transfers etc and then maybe March/April for the run in.

Sorry, the league cup is all over the place, the game doesn't give me notifcations of games etc.

 

Here you go, solid victory.

 

What the fucking fuck. What the fuck are my team doing? FUCKING READING!!!!!

 

What is my assistant doing the absolute fucking dickhead? Who is he pocking and what formation is he playing?

[rb14]

"Guys, just get in there and give me everything you've got." I said, in the changing rooms before kickoff. And that's exactly what they did. Each and every one of them. By the time it was all done, they were exhausted, spent. Each and every one of them had nothing left in the tank. And maybe this is where we're going wrong? We still had a footy match to play. Perhaps we should have played footy FIRST? 

 

Anyway, we're clearly fucked.

My team is absolute muck. I can see now that instead of choosing the best strikers in the world I should have plumped for some Championship-level shit that the game has decided to turn into Puskas and Di Stefano. 

 

Oh well, at least there's still the cups.

[Guest Alex_K]

Clinging to the final unbeaten record. I'm satisfied the simulation is working as it should.

I'd look at your system as the 4-2-4 is being overrun.

 

I'll post info after and if you want you can change formations etc.

[sir roger]

That would be really useful , Bruce.

We need to think of damage limitation with regards to the auto managers.

I fully expected to concede goals with an attacking formation, equally however I expected we might occasionally put one in at the other end. 

 

A change in formation to account for all the bus-parking Allardyce cloggers may very well be in order.

Griezman has palyed 7 and scored 0.

 

That'll be something to do with it.

Was there a second set of results for this gameweek? Assuming the other 4 games were Sunday/Monday?

No, randomly they’re played after the CL game.

Ta. Seems odd. Oh well.

 

Any reason why I didn't play then...?

At the end of the day, you get what you deserve for trusting the French.

[Bruce Spanner]

Here are the squads and their rating, I chose to go with avarage player rating as it's the easiest way of seeing how they are doing, think about these players when you think of formation. Think about prefered moves when you think about these players...

 

The only thing I can change is formation and preferences, if you want to change anything let me know, we'll play the next round of games after that.

 

They are in current league order.

 

 

 

 

[sir roger]

Sorry for being a pain Bruce, do you know whether any of my injuries are long term ?

JARG HISPALIS

Gomez, Grealish , Hudson-Odoi, Maignan.

[Strontium]

Hmm, I'm still not sure why I'm playing with two defensive midfielders rather than two central midfielders. Is my manager right in the head?

They’re not set to defensive midfielders, they’re set to what you asked me, it’s just a stylistic thing I assume.

They’re all fine a couple of days to a week at most. 
 

In red it’s over a week and more serious, Orange is fine.

[Pidge]

Haha, poor Vardy getting bombed out. Stuck in the U23s with the evertonian!

Okay, it's a bit confusing seeing it say DMCL and DMCR when other teams have MCL and MCR.

 

I can see the big problem I have is Szczesny in goal.

[Captain Turdseye]

When does this ‘formation window’ close please, Bruce? And can I have injury updates on Trent and Kounde?

He's recovering from injury.

When ardja gets back to me as he's in upsidedownland, so by tomorrow morning?

 

TAA two weeks the other two months!

[Allan]

There's a good few big players with long injuries. 

 

For me, Joe Gomez hasn't played a competitive game this season, and I notice that Cristiano Ronaldo is in the same boat for The Lamb & Flag (Golden Eel).

Ronaldo was injured, so missed the first games.

 

Gomez did his cruciate, out for a while!

 

He can't even stay injury free in a simulation...
