You know what... Me neither... It´s hopeless sometimes. Currently on the WC 2018 (so about halfway in the career), and I really really really wanna finish this BAL before PES11. But you just have to allow yourself a break from PES once in a while to avoid throwing your ps3 through the tv...

Agreed, even on PC - where I usually chalk all sports games to "sim" like - PES10 fails in BAL mode.

The clearances by the CPU are straight to their forwards. If a midfielder on my team loses the ball, he doesn't track back - he jogs back as the opponent attacks. Even if he doesn't lose the ball, he still just lets the guy go through.

I am about to update though, it's time to get through this season.

Premiership Cup: Round 2, Second Leg
Wolves v Blackburn

1-2
Matteo 44'
Emerton 50'
Roberts 63'
-----
Caution: Diouf (Blackburn)

Wolves beaten 5-2 on Aggregate, eliminated
Struggling continues for usnure Coyle and Wolves

Johnson Peoples, wolves.co.uk



Even though there was a strong 3-1 cushion against them, it seemed that when Lam Matteo scored the opening goal in Molineaux, that his celebration was too much.

Blackburn continued to press on after the first half goal, and Brett Emerton found himself open in the box - neatly finishing. Jason Roberts is the super sub for Blackburn, and the pest for the Wolves defense considering they had to deal with Benni McCarthy yet again.

Roberts found himself on the scoresheet not too soon after entering the match - his powerful header left Murray no chance.

Final score on aggregate was 5-2, an incredible series performance by Blackburn - or just pathetic excuse of play by Wolves, Coyle feels it was the latter.

"We did not compete. You have matches where you're in it to win it - but this leg battle was not even one, we gave up before the match started."

Table Position: 15th, 16 pts
Next Match: v Manchester United (Away) - 6th, 27 pts

Matteo improves January resume

Blistering pace, left Rovers in shambles...

"At this point I am just going to score as many goals possible."

Hell of a run and the finish was clinical

Matteo indicates departing from Wolverhampton in January

According to sources linked within, Lam Matteo has notified Wolves boss, Owen Coyle, that he wishes to leave in January.

Wolves did not complete many acquisitions this past summer due to the fact they intended on keeping Lam Matteo until the end the 2020 season, which is more than two years away.

However, sources indicate that Matteo is unhappy with the club - and has possibly shopped around already - noticing clubs that are no in the Premier League, and could most likely be a move to Ligue 1, the French first division.

"There is only speculation at this point," according to an e-mail from Matteo's agent, Arthur Van Der Lay, "Matteo is proud to be part of Wolves, but at the moment he feels unhappy with the team's recent form and the stubborness of Owen Coyle has aided in the decision to possibly leave the club."

Despite already scoring 7 goals this early season, which is what the American totaled last year, Matteo's agent addressed one true concern.

"Matteo feels that it is in his best interest to start looking elsewhere. He feels that scoring goals is what he wants to do - and he wants to do that from the striker position."

So, will we see Coyle with a change of heart and place Matteo up front - or has Matteo's last match already been played? At this very moment, Matteo's name is still listed in the squad against Man United this weekend.

Whatever the club will be, let it be a better one than the Wolves. I´m sure that if Matteo has more great players around him, he´ll perform even better himself. And it´s about time he starts winning some freaking trophies! Finish strong with Wolves!

Please not a move to Ligue 1 I think it would be better if he played in the Bundesliga!

Welcome to the Serie A, Matteo

Naples, Italy -- American international, Lam Matteo, has finalized a highly controversial move to Serie A side, SSC Napoli - leaving the struggling Wolverhampton Wanderers of the Premier League. Matteo's transfer fee was undisclosed, however Wolverhampton have reportedly been paid "handsomely".

Matteo is the first American to be listed on the Napoli club, but according to manager Francesco Totti, the striker has a nack for finding goals no matter what position he plays.

"Matteo is an Italian name - I don't care where he's from - it's an Italian name, of descent, he belongs because he can make goals. I am confident in our signing - and I hope Matteo great success."

As for Matteo himself, the move from his beloved England, to the hard nosed game play that is Italian football - has already been a strain as he reportedly will miss at least two weeks with a broken wrist he suffered in Wolves last match against Fulham.

"I expect to fully recover and help my side," states the striker, "I know time spent on the bench will surely aid me in understanding this style of play a lot better."

Woohoo! That´s a great move. It sure beats France. And Napoli isn´t too bad either! Where are they currently on the table?
Hope a change of country will do Matteo good. Let the goals fly.

Thanks guys - I think this is a great decision, and the club looks really solid. Also - for those who haven't seen the difference in SS - this is back to PES 09. This time, it's for the PC - and I'm actually pretty happy with the results, combined with Smoke's Patch.

So - here we go. Bout to play the first match. Maybe Matteo will get some PT.
