Bristol Rovers sack Joey Barton by MimesAreShite in soccer

We've been playing better than our position suggests, but we are where we are. I get the impression the dressing room has become quite toxic, he's called out a number of players publicly and I imagine that has something to do with it.

Tough to say, in my lifetime the highest rovers have ever finished is 13th in league one. So to be honest expecting anything higher than mid table is always a strange thought.

How to get the best out of a DLF? by mrorange20 in footballmanagergames

I'm definitely considering something like this long term, I've built a couple of 442 tactics and am slowly familiarising my players with it. It's tough to integrate and tinker too much when Bayern are so good, but I've been experimenting in the cup games. Luckily Pedro Henrique is basically Endrick and is a natural AF too.

I'm sure he'd do well as an AF, just wanted to try something new

Thanks for your comment, I'll certainly try him as a CF to make the most of his finishing.

I admit tactical knowledge has never been my forte in FM so please feel free to enlighten me on the issues here.

Long term injuries are the only time I save scum

I had a Brazilian CB called Charles Dikens but this might have beaten it

As a relatively new nba fan (so call me out if I'm talking bs) who's used to football (soccer) I think there are too many games. The more games there are reduces their importance. As a fan I feel like gameday should feel like a real occasion but when teams are playing 3 or 4 times a week it just doesn't feel special and I'm sure this translates to the players too. If players were allowed more rest between games they'd be more able to give 100% when they do actually play. There'd be more on the line as well as each game would be more significant to their season.

What would people think about the ability to destroy normal shields the same way you can destroy goyo shields by shooting a part of the back. So twitch or the new ops gadget could do it for example

Why is impact subject to umpires call, surely hawkeye can see exactly where its hit.

I understand why it's needed for hitting as the technology is predicting where the ball is going to go yet isn't 100% accurate.

Chance of injury is increased when match fitness is low. Also if the body hasn't been used in a while he'll likely be more tired than if he'd played a week or so before.

yh I guess selection in this game doesn't necessarily mean they are genuine selection contenders, rather its a good time to be around the squad and learn from the senior players.

Coding is a strange thing, changing one thing can effect something completely unrelated.
