Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

You're right Chico, that would have been a cool quote. I could link you the movie if you really want. It's online and free.

And since DutchAki asked the question, I'll also ask it. How's my English? Do you understand me? What should I work on?

Haha thanks man but that's okay. I might just buy it actually. My brother and my dad would probably want to watch it again too.

I think both you and Dutch's English is great. If you guys wouldn't have said anything I wouldn't have even noticed it's not your first language.

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

I'm having crazy FIFA withdrawals today. I've only been able to play 1 match in the last two days, and the store I work at plays at least 4 songs from the soundtrack. Making me go crazy! I can't get away from it... The walls are closing in!

Rabbit, good to see you back man! You didn't come back with another wife did you? Lol how was the drive? Must've been boring as hell as soon as you crossed into the desert. I like driving to California, but every time I drive deeper into Arizona or up to Nevada it's a boring drive. Just a few cacti here and there lol great results in both your careers! 3rd place in La Liga is impressive and in a promotion spot with Dagenham.

I like the new idea Jamie! I don't like having many foreign players in my squads (maybe 1 or 2 to avoid Human Resources from knocking on the door ) so I'm looking forward to the first update!

Regens, I'm getting a little worried with the Welbeck phase you're going through right now... Lol

And Texas, you gotta get back on that auto promotion horse and ride it! I want to see you promoted before Rabbit!

Very well. Wouldn't have ever noticed you weren't a natural born English speaker if I hadn't already known you were Dutch.

Certainly better than a good chunk of American 16 year olds.

Get used to it. Lmfao the only way it'll end is if he's only a decent player. If he's great, it won't end. If he completely flops, it won't end and there will be comparisons to Bendtner, Chamakh, etc.


SHOTS FIRED! Cover me, reloading.

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?

Great to see you again, Rabbit! How was Vegas and did you spend a lot of money? I want you to update already! I want to know if you can continue the amazing job in La Liga. Just don't run out of time, FIFA 15 is near.

If you want a fast striker you could try to get Nahki Wells from Huddersfield. He won't be cheap, though. That's everyone I can suggest.

It's not your first language? Never would've known. Speak it perfectly. I kinda got it with DutchAki only because of his name lmfao

Friday I put $100 on a 3-team parlay with Michigan State (+ 12.5), Raiders (+ 5.5) and Bengals (+2.5). I would be $500 richer today if MSU hadn't given up a late touchdown on 4th and 2 from their on 14, or thrown a pick on their prior possession. Not to mention they were winning by 9 in the 3rd quarter. At least I was able to win $75 on Texas Hold 'Em on Monday so I only really lost $25.

I posted a couple of updated yesterday but I think you already read them. Thanks for the Wells suggestion but if he'll be pricey then he'll be out of my range

Your English is ok

Press Conference

Q: You went unbeaten this month and closed the gap to second while having a game in hand as well. How do you feel about where you currently stand in the league?

A: We are happy with the results this month leading us back up to 3rd in the table. Sitting only 4 points back, we also have a game in hand to help close that gap if we can take advantage of it. I think we have a great shot at moving into 2nd by the end of the season and winning automatic promotion.

Q: You have forced a replay in the F.A. Cup with Derby for the chance to move on to the round of 16. How important is F.A. Cup success this season for you?

A: We really want to put in a great performance this year in the F.A. Cup. This is a big competition, and a great chance to show the rest of English football where our standing is among the rest of the clubs. I think we are good enough to compete with any club we come against and we aim to prove that.

Q: You sold two players and brought in 2 others this window. What do you like about the new players brought in? How will the club adapt to the loss of Restrepo and Hussey?

A: Chris Hussey and Cristian Restrepo have been important players for our club the past few seasons. Cristian had put in a transfer request and we decided it was best for both parties to find a new club for him. Chris had fallen in the selection list recently due to the need for improved defense. It was a shame to see him go, but we needed to adapt. We were able to bring in two young but promising full backs. Declan John is good enough to immediately challenge for first choice on the left side, and Saidy Janko will essentially be on trial for the team the remainder of the season with us having an option to purchase at the end of the season. We are excited about the potential of these two young players and look forward to their development.

Morecambe F.C.
Season Four


The Shrimps

Morecambe Goes Defensive In January Window

With the January transfer window now officially closed, Morecambe appear to have made a defensive minded shift with the additions of two young fullbacks. Young Welsh left back Declan John has officially been bought from Cardiff, while Swiss right back Saidy Janko has been brought in on loan with an option to buy in the future. Going the other way, Morecambe has also sold unsettled midfielder Cristian Restrepo, and parted with Chris Hussey who had been first choice left wingback prior to the movement back to the 4 man back line.

Declan John


The young Welsh international grew up in the Cardiff academy and has featured for the senior team on several occasions pegged as a future first choice leftback. He made his senior debut for the Welsh national team in 2013 and looks to be a player likely to earn many more caps in the future for the team. Morecambe manager, Tex Bumosix was able to agree to a price with Cardiff to pull John away, and the promising defender is likely to compete with Youssouf Sabaly right away for first choice on the left side of the defense.

Saidy Janko


Another young defender joining Morecambe this window is Swiss fullback Saidy Janko. Janko is a product of the Manchester United youth system, but has found it tough to break into the first team at Old Trafford. Bumosix negotiated a deal with United to bring Janko in for the remainder of the season on loan, with an option to purchase. He will have to compete with Gabriel Graciani and Tosin Olufemi for playing time, but is expected to see the field sooner rather than later.

Sevilla FC 3 - 0 Hertha BSC (3-2 agg), Champions League Quarter Final
Bacca 8', 19', Callejon 108'

Hertha BSC, last season's champions, are out of the Champions League after a terrible game against Sevilla. Hertha won the home leg 2-0 and they had an advantage going in the second game but they surprised the footballing world by losing to Sevilla, thus getting knocked out. With this catastrophe the Champions League won't still be won by the same team twice in a row.
Carlos Bacca started the game off by scoring in the 8th minute. Vitolo crossed the ball in from the left but it was parried by Kraft. Bacca reached the ball and put it in with a bicycle kick. Ten minutes later the Colombian made it two when Kraft came out of his goal. Jose Callejon passed the ball back to Bacca who had an easy job in putting the ball in the net. After that the Berliners woke up and started playing but Sevilla's defence was superior. The game went to extra time and Jose Callejon managed to score from a counter attack in the 108th minute to put his team in the semi finals.

Hertha Secure Bundeliga Title!

In the game between first-placed Hertha and second-placed Bayern Munich the difference was eleven points with four games remaining, which meant that a win would secure the title for Hertha. It looked like Hertha would need another game for the trophy when Bastian Schweinsteiger scored in the 26th minute after dribbling past Hertha's defenders. At halftime Bayern were leading and they had more possession. It took about fifteen minutes for the Berliners to equalise with Christian Benteke scoring from a corner. Only seven minutes later Gareth Bale got himself a goal after cutting in from the right which secured the title! Five minute after that Kovacic scored a third to break Bayern's confidence. Hertha are the Bundesliga champions!

Congratulations on winning the Bundesliga title!

Thank you! It was awesome to win it twice in a row, this time with four games to go. The guys and the fans really deserve it after such a season. Alltogether, the season was a disappointment.


Why do you think so?

Because of our runs in the Champions League and in the DFB Pokal. We were the holding champions in both of those competitions but we weren't able to reach either of the finals. On top of that we were really inconsistent and we lost a lot of points in the last fifteen minutes. We will improve next season.


That means you won't get fired?

I think I can reveal that I'm staying here in Berlin. I think I'm the right man for the job and the squad is made by me. Maybe we didn't have a good season but I'm sure we will be better next season.


Your second ban of the season is over now. There was speculation around about you getting banned from German football. What's your opinion on that?

You know, I don't like how in modern football you can't be yourself. You have to always think about what you are saying and if it will insult someone, somehow. I can tell you that me getting banned is complete bulls**t, they wouldn't to that. Unless they want Bayern to start dominating again.


Who are you looking to buy in the transfer window?

Two words: squad depth. That's all I can tell.


What is your objective next season?

My objective is simple. Win at least two of the competitions we are challenging in. Make the fans happy and show the people who's thee best manager in Germany. Maybe even in Europe.

Guess if I was able to get over it... I went in the game pretty confidently with my best players and I tried to play like always. I haven't got a clue what happened, they played like Real Madrid and got two goals. After that it was a bit more even but I couldn't get through their defence. After the game I was sitting still and looking at the sealing thinking about what just happened. It was terrible. Next season I'll win the Champions League, just watch!
