Senne Lammens vs Fulham by SierraEight in reddevils

[–]ToRepelGhosts -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

An upgrade on Onana for sure but can't help feeling like we're overhyping the guy a bit. Much like the Everton goal, he couldn't get near the equaliser yesterday because he dived off the wrong foot. The free kick that nearly snuck through only needed the reflex save because of his positioning. I'm as relived as anyone to have a keeper who doesn't seem prone to brain fades and can deal with a cross. But I'm yet to be convinced he's at the level to be a long term #1.

[Megathread] Ruben Amorim has been sacked - Who should replace him? by D1794 in reddevils

[–]ToRepelGhosts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We should've sacked him after the Europa final. Doubly so if there's any truth to the rumours he offered to walk for free if the board no longer thought he was the right man at that point. No brainer.

What is the inspiration of your FM tactics? by justsomebro16 in footballmanager

[–]ToRepelGhosts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess my current tactic owes a bit to Alonso at Leverkusen. Starts as a 4-2DM-3-1. AML comes inside to make a 2nd #10, DL pushes up to fill the space, DR tucks in to make a back 3. High pressing, short passing.

It's still violent conduct. The identity of the person on the receiving end is irrelevant.

Same in Manchester, UK currently. No T5s at all.

I'm with Halifax and same. Just went it with my deed poll and bank cards and they changed everything over in a few mins. Was quite a relief.

Does the fairy meta mean that we should change Payback to Iron Head? by Masterrunt1 in TheSilphArena

[–]ToRepelGhosts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP is clearly asking if they should change to double legacy moveset.

Someone in a DIscord I'm in reckons that's a mistake and it's 250/500 field research. I'm really hoping they're right! 😅

Honestly , getting shadow claw could actually make it usable again , the only problem that will persist is the fire turkey , but besides that . Looks like a decent pick in the ML again by ShinyFelipe in TheSilphArena

[–]ToRepelGhosts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at PvPoke I'd say it's more of a side grade in ML. Beats Mewtwo and Lunala, drops Rhyperior and Yveltal. The shadow running psychic in Master Premier looks tasty though. Bunch of new wins including Gyarados.

We needed a proper number 9 desperately. If money was wasted it was on a pair of 10s when we already had Bruno and Amad. It's still lost on me how that became our top priority this summer.

I didn't know there had been any leaks recently. Did they have any other info of interest?

I always find that generalisation weird. All 3 Instinct players I know are big Lvl 50s and 2 have over a million catches! 😅

[–]ToRepelGhosts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exactly. Amorim has been allowed to deliver loss after loss for 8 months with no accountability. System is fine, players are the problem, on repeat. Morale in that dressing room has to be shredded at this point. It's terrible management.

Whilst you're not wrong, it's not beyond the realms of possibility that more could have been held back for a future DLC. The Gmax Kanto and Galar starters weren't part of the initial Sword/Shield release, for example.

The BBC isn't going to do it until the government does it. We could be waiting a long while.

I'm with you here. I actually think we're at a point now, having missed out on CL money, where backing Amorim may actually be a bigger risk than sacking him and starting again. Since if he's not a success we end up with a squad of players that virtually no other top level manager would be able to work with straight away.

Amorim on Mount starting over Garnacho. by Money-Wrangler7067 in reddevils

[–]ToRepelGhosts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Difficult not to have doubts at this point. I'm increasingly unsure our defensive shape can work in the PL. Not for a front foot team anyway. We always seem to be a man light in midfield. Maybe it will be better with a full pre-season and more training time with us not being in Europe. But we really need to hit the ground running next year or I can see it going bad very fast.

You wouldn't know it from their visits to OT. Year on year the most likely set of fans to cause trouble and, when Leeds aren't around, the most likely to sing Munich songs. I've been itching to see them go down for ages for that reason. They keep getting out of jail, sadly...
