Swan answered a few questions earlier lets see what he said. Reporter: Mr. Swan, how does it feel to manage what many say; the best club in the world? Swan: Well it feels great thanks for asking. I have always been a fan of this club since I was a young lad and now this is a dream come true. R: What is your goal for this club? S: Well to win the title of course! the Champions League title wouldn't be to bad either (chuckles) but I really want to change the style of play Spain use. R: Does that mean you want to manage the Spanish National Team? S: Yes, who wouldn't! R: One last thing. Who are you looking to sign this year? And how do you think Gareth Bale will fit in at this club? S: I am sorry but that is classified at the moment. As for Gareth? Well I'm sure he will be a big part of our team this year. R: well thanks for your time. S: No thank you, it was my pleasure. Since the first season has already happened in real life I decided to sim the first season but play against Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. I disabled the first summer transfer window and right when I go into January I get a offer for Ronaldo and guess who it's from? Barcelona! lol I rejected it but Khedira wants to leave so I'm going to have to sell him . Anyways i just entered January and I am in the QTR finals Spanish cup and facing CSKA Moscow in the R16 in the CL as for the league I am currently 2nd with 38 points behind surprise leaders Athletic Bilbao with 39 points. Barcelona are 3rd with 36 points. I will update at the end of the season if I get a reply but if not I will stop posting about this career mode.

Whoa whoa simmer down! We're all friends here lol

I like your career idea. Marking an end to the tiki-taka era. Real are making some great signings right now too so just in time.

Jetro Willems, Blind or Martins Indi they are around the mid to high 70's in the second season I think and play like they are a 80+ rated player should cost you around 7 mil

Before I start my career mode, a few questions:

If you edit a player how does it affect his growth? For instance I see Jesé Rodríguez is only a 76 which is rather absurd (and I read only 83 potential?), if I edit him to say a 81 or 82 will he grow above 83 or is that still his cap? Will he grow at all or will editing him make it so he doesn't grow in career mode? Aaron Ramsey and Alexis Sanchez are a few others that I would certainly edit...

Also, is there even a growth cap on players as there have been in previous games? For instance I saw on SoFifa that Serge Gnabry has a player potential of 84 but then I watched a video of some bloke who had got him up to 85. If there is, is there any way to edit player potential directly?

Cheers for any help or advice you can give...

*Edit: For clarity's sake, I am planning to edit these players before starting the career mode and using the custom rosters. That way of course I can move Suarez to Barca, Sanchez to Arsenal, etc.

Breaking News


Juan Dominguez has signed a contract extension to stay at his boyhood club RC Deportivo. Rumors of him moving on were running wild and Deportivo made it a priority to return their captain back to the club. There were several rumors linking Dominguez with a move to Newcastle after new manager Jamiec47 turned his eye towards the talents of Dominguez. Sources say that the board was close to reaching an agreement with Newcastle, but Deportivo's manager stepped in at the last minute and refused to let his captain leave so easy. In the end loyalty won out, and Dominguez will remain a one club man for the time being.

Press Conference

Q: What a second leg against Barcelona. The emotions must have been flying up and down throughout that game. How does the team move on after the emotionally draining heartbreak of this game?

A: First thing I want to say is how proud I am of this squad. They played their hearts out against Barcelona and left it all on the pitch. Coming in down 3-0 was a near impossible hole to climb out of and we took it to Barcelona from the start. Once we forced extra time we felt that we could pull it off, but ultimately scored in the 117th minute to put the game to rest. It's heartbreaking, but to reach the semi-finals like this is something that each of these players should be proud of.

Q: The news of Juan Dominguez's contract extension has been hitting the front pages all over the city. The fans are rejoicing at keeping one of their favorites after all of the rumors of his impending exit. How were you able to convince Juan to remain at the club?

A: As a said last month, rumors are just rumors. Don't believe anything until he put a pen to paper on a new contract. And sure enough that has happened, and I am happy to say it was with Deportivo. Juan has a very deep connection with this club after coming through the youth system here. He has been an important feature of my starting XI since I took over, and has become my captain after the departure of Manuel Pablo. I am very please to officially announce that he will be staying with Deportivo for another 3 years.

Q: Great results this month all around, both in Champions League play, as well as in La Liga. What is the feeling among the players now regarding both competitions?

A: Excitement. Lots and lots of excitement. To have moved into 2nd place in La Liga is something that was barely imaginable when I took over this club back in the Liga Adelante. The same can be said for the first leg of the PSG match up. We need to keep the emotions in check however and focus on finishing what we have started. We are all looking forward to the last few months of the season.

Interesting question. I made a google search for you but couldn't find an answer. It's been asked, but not answered. I want to think that if you edit Jesé he will still grow by 7 points. For example, he's currently 76 with 83 potential, if you edit him to 77 his potential will be 84. Makes sense no? Can't say for sure though.

On your other question, a player can exceed his original potential if you're playing him constantly and he's playing well. For example my starting goalkeeper Ross Worner was 59 overall with 66 potential according to SoFifa. I am now on my third season and he is 69 overall and still growing.

VfB STUTTGART SIGNS MANAGER

12 May 2013

Stuttgart -- Following a disappointing 2012-2013 season which saw Die Roten finish 12th in the Bundesliga table, the club sacked manager Bruno Labbadia. The search for a new manager ended this past week with club executives announcing the hiring of [Maelstrom-XIII]. The club has pinned their hopes on the newcomer out of the United States, to turn their fortunes around and go back to their winning ways. But [Maelstrom] knows this is no small feat, trying to topple Bundesliga juggernaut Bayern Munich.

"I have my work cut out for me, there's no doubt. But I took this job knowing the level of competition and quality here in the Bundesliga, and neither me nor my club are going to back down from anyone. I was born here, and now I've come back to Stuttgart to take us to the top of the table."

The VfB Stuttgart season begins anew next month in friendly contests before beginning in earnest in late August.

Yeah we feel you. The way I do it is I just write down all the goals on my phone's notepad.
