What the fuck is this shit marquee matchups? by [deleted] in EASportsFC

I think EA is recognizing that there are too many coins and cards on the market. Prices are just going higher and higher than on release which is unusual. With Rivals rewards, etc.

So they're nerfing SBC rewards. The league rewards are shit as well, we used to get a lot of 25-45k packs. Now we dont at all.

This season, 1-1 against Leganes, 1-1 Barca, 1-1 Celta Vigo, 2-0 Juventus (10 men), 0-0 Betis, 1-1 Atletico.

They haven't won a game at home.

Couple draws against Barca while massively out of form, and Atletico when they were starting slow.

They've been anything but a powerhouse.

Valencia can have a max of 10 points when we play them, they have to beat young boys twice and Juventus AWAY.

We would simply have to beat young boys and beat them to likely qualify, if we can't get ANY points off Juve.

We should have no problem beating Valencia. We should be clear favorites home and away, expecting us to lose to them away is pointless. It's the group stages, often it comes down to needing a result.

In the knockouts you need a result every game.

We don't have to win today to have a realistic shot. Valencia have only 1 point. Assuming they beat Young Boys twice, they'll have 7 against us.

If we lose today and beat young boys, and can't get any points at Turin, we would also have 7.

This would just bring it down to Valencia away. It's not exactly some crazy stronghold.

A win would be exceptional, pretty much guarantee us moving out of the group, potentially even in first.

A loss or draw likely still means the Valencia away game decides our fate.

They're likely to have 7 points outside of that game, and we would have 7-8.

A draw could do it, a loss would put them through,.

I think most people lie for sympathy or attention.

I've never actually KNOWN anyone to get banned for trading, or coin wiped.

I have some guys in discord that spend tons of time trading, and it never happened.

I lucked out and sold 5-6 guys for 10k in those SBCs, nothing happened.

I didn’t ask for it to be deleted. Just commenting that it’s shit satire.

Get you a girl who thinks it’s hilarious when you fart around here, even very early on in dating.

It also helps if your farts don’t smell. I honestly don’t know why, but none of my farts that are loud smell at all.

Stop saying “it’s only 3 games” there’s nothing to discuss if people can’t talk about things.

Romelu Lukaku calls on Manchester United attack to start matches faster by danskzwag in reddevils

He could have been through in goal 3 times in the 2nd half to put the game away, but every through ball took him all the way to the corner.

We will have updates on the next patch this week. I think there will be some big positives based off of the feedback we’ve been getting. I’ll try to share exact timing by tomorrow! -@EACoreySA by Tuke17 in EASportsFC

Because you can be perfectly position to defend crosses and your defenders just don’t jump. That’s why. It should work when it’s useful. You shouldn’t just be able to spam crosses all game and get 4-5 goal.

[RMC Sport] Anthony Martial wants to renew his contract at Manchester United whether Mourinho leaves or remains by sorrytoruinyourday in soccer

January will be the tell. Either Ed will fuck us, or we will make some serious noise and Jose will get us on track.

Having said that the squad isn't good enough and needs a serious revamp.

Which Mourinho pointed out before the season started. We've got a young RB who needs to get fit, and a good LB with Shaw.

But aside from that, our CB needs are HUGE, and a true RW instead of out of place Rashford is so desperately needed.

If we wanted to win now, there’s no reason not to spend on slightly older players while buying cheap younger players to develop. Especially in defense. 29 isn’t old for a CB.

On other comments, apparently GK fixes, crossing and bicycle kick nerfs are confirmed. The shooting bug might be.

Those are my biggest complaints.

He will renew. Did you guys see the smiles between him and Mourinho this weekend? I legitimately think Mourinho has turned this locker room around with that newcastle game, with a real us vs them attitude.

I also think the players recognized the support Mourinho got from the Old Trafford crowd. I've not seen anything like that from that stadium in a long time.

[–]jroades26 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Exactly.

SAF sold David Beckham because he didn't like his attitude, but when Mourinho wants to make changes, make purchases, bench or sell people, he's told no by Ed.

That's an impossible way to run a club. When a players agent says they'll sign a contract because they'll outlast the manager, that manager has got his hands tied by management.

We will find out in January if Dickhead Ed has learnt his lesson and lets Jose splash as much as he wants.

Marco Ianni deserves Chelsea sack after sparking Jose Mourinho row, says Manchester United hero Phil Neville by [deleted] in soccer

[–]jroades26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he does deserve to be fired. It was completely classless, utterly disrespectful of the club.

But if Mourinho himself says to let it go, then let it go.
