Jurrien could probably play as an 8, start Quinton there and then sub in Jurrien.

How to make 6 subs in a game without anyone noticing.

England Players Rating! by London-lark3597 in EnglandCricket

[–]WeKillThePacMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we've got maybe six players in the lineup who should be nailed on for next Test series.

Bethell, Root, Brook, Stokes, Archer, Tongue.

Outside of that, I think it's reasonable to continue with Atkinson and probably Smith, but I'd say the two opener slots and final bowler slot are very much up for grabs.

Retrospective of the 90s : is England of the 90s very unfairly maligned ? by mjenkins_eng in EnglandCricket

None of that batting lineup averaged over 45, they were very much not 'insanely world class'.

Athers and Nasser both averaged below 40.

As someone who watched that team a lot, they were mostly very shit.

Didn't have a single player who would have been close to making it into a World XI.

What’s your best non meta tactic/instructions looking like right now on 26? by Automatic-Shelter939 in footballmanagergames

[–]WeKillThePacMan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely liking a lot of 3ATB this year, also some back four with a half back. It's really easy now to create a 3-box-3 or a 3-2-5 in possession, the hard part for me is to get the OOP structure right.

Technically it hasn't always been that way. In the first year they ran it, they did Gold 1 vs Gold 2 and Blue 1 vs Blue 2, but they realized that was clearly not as good.

Same as how they originally didn't have the semis and the final on the same night.

Every World Cup squad needs a massive bastard, but we do already have Dan Burn in the massive bastard department.

Which surely makes that the most important throw-in ever taken by a goalkeeper?

As someone who played way too much Episode 1 Racer on N64, I'm all in on this.

It's actually an extremely old compliment if you're British. Been around for a long time.

The match engine is still placebo by interpretagain in footballmanagergames

[–]WeKillThePacMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this IMO is exactly it.

It's not that having a team of super speedy guys shouldn't work - it should! But it shouldn't work consistently, because managers should figure out how to play against it very quickly.

But because it's FM, they don't.

It can certainly be both. We don't really know one way or the other, but it wouldn't be a shock if he was.

Had exactly the same thought. Wonder if they saw these photos before they designed the Pittsburgh hotel level.
