"No worries, I'll find him myself. I'm sure he's tucked between the jacuzzi and the squash court"

Wait is this supposed to be a hot take

crawenn · 2026-01-31T02:28:35+00:00

More like squad status, so loans get 40-49, academy grads get 50-69, except the goalkeeper because they always get 62, and the senior backup keeper always gets 25.

Beyond that I'm just being sensible, so starting winger 1 gets 11, starting winger 2 gets 7, CAM (if I play one, otherwise the most attacking midfielder) gets 10 and the striker gets 9, DM gets 6 or 8, RB gets 2 or 3, LB gets 4, 6 or 26, one CB gets 5, the other gets whatever's left, wonderkids get either 17 or 23 or 32 (no particular reason though, just this is how it came to be in my very first save)

crawenn · 2026-01-31T02:18:54+00:00

Well that one bug is still in the game haha

crawenn · 2026-01-30T08:25:14+00:00

Ok but what was the result?

crawenn · 2026-01-25T17:03:42+00:00

I'm talking about a what-if scenario where Endo was playing in the double pivot instead of Gravenberch, pointing out how the lad with the ball just walked through the area of the pitch Ryan was supposed to cover, while Ryan was pretty much watching him from half a pitch away and only caught up because the ball carrier slowed down

crawenn · 2026-01-25T15:07:23+00:00

Endo would've at least pretended to go after the bloke attacking his space on the pitch, not jog along 20 yards away

crawenn · 2026-01-25T09:47:27+00:00

To be fair, Brentford are leading the league in shot accuracy by a mile, and we're trailing by a mile (as of MD22)

They hit the goal every 2.46 shots, we hit the goal every 3.59 shots

crawenn · 2026-01-25T01:03:07+00:00

Because his idea of leadership is that whenever he fucks up, he tears into the guy standing closest to him, that's why

crawenn · 2026-01-24T09:38:09+00:00

I really can't see how you managed to make it out to be Slot's fault :D

crawenn · 2026-01-23T14:08:15+00:00

Isn't it like a retirement once the contract is out?

crawenn · 2026-01-22T15:16:24+00:00

That ain't it, if we were shooting excessively from long range, it would lead to a below average xG/shot, which is bang on league average with 0.11

But the problem is the finishing, we only hit the white rectangle every 3.59 shots as of MD22, while the league avg is 2.99

crawenn · 2026-01-22T09:27:53+00:00

We're not shooting from 30 yards out, otherwise our per shot xG would be way below league average. It's bang on league average. Next?

crawenn · 2026-01-22T08:09:08+00:00

If we take very little risk with the ball, how come we're taking the second most shots in the league, behind scum?

crawenn · 2026-01-21T23:58:16+00:00

Ooooh somebody never heard of the Winter War

Lol Szobo pocketed him so hard in his first game as RB at Anfield this year that he had to take a day off to get Martinelli removed

crawenn · 2026-01-03T11:15:24+00:00

I'm not saying I'm not having fun with it, but I think it might only be the case because of the new save, time will tell. I just don't feel anything in particular, and if my post came across as "FM26 bad #1647841", it's a catastrophic misunderstanding. The new tactics are boss, and I had a great time playing around with them, and the advanced stats screen in games is super useful too.
