    In last year's game, this would have been pathetic, but thanks to the way players older than 30-32 decline this year, he's a steal. I have a cup match against Gillingham coming up, and I plan to unleash him at RCM in my 4-3-3. I think being the lone CDM is bad for him, because he doesn't have the pace to get back if caught out, and he's too good with the ball to be sitting back.
    I hadn't thought about that. Im going to get back to you when more research is done, however for now it is just players who's in game nationality is English, Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish

        Time to get better this offseason and them come back even stronger to aim for the title!
        Going to be hard to strengthen with the transfer budget I've been given. Considering I'm the champions league it's lower than last year we

            Also meant to say as of this season i've changed to manual controls for the first time ever on any fifa (first one was 2003) so don't be surprised to see some funny results. I'm changing between world class and legendary to find the difficulty for it

              I hate that my internet at home is not working, I refuse to do the whole update on mobile, to much pain in the ***. I'm now done with Alcorcon and Dagenham seasons and need to post

I was not impressed. I definitely need a backup striker right midfielder defensive midfielder and right back so it's going to be very tough

                    Hope Bojan is not one of them! :0

I will take a break from posting and I don't know how long it will be. Maybe a couple days, maybe a week, maybe a month.



                    There are few reasons behind my decision. Like I mentioned, updating has become dull and repetitive since finishing my Hertha career. I don't have a good vocabulary which makes me question the words I use. Lastly, I can't find a reason for updating anymore.



                    Thank you for being with me and for reading my posts. Remember, this is not a farewell, this is just a good bye. I may return next week. For now, this is all.

                    I will also miss your updates Simmpu. And by the way, your vocabulary has always been fine don't remember seeing anything wrong with it at all.

                      I always enjoy your updates, FWIW, but the important thing is that you be happy and enjoy the game. You're still gonna hang aroudn and read our updates though, right?

                        Thanks for he nice words! Thank you too, Chico. Of course I will hang around here. I always read everything, even though I don't post that often.

                        Yes, I'm enjoying the game and I'm happy. BUT. Today I have been thinking about updating and not updating and I felt kind of sad while playing FIFA. I realised two things: You guys are important to me and I actually enjoy updating and it makes me happy and the other thing is that Swansea isn't the team for me. What does this mean? This guy here is continuing updating and he's ending the Swansea career after this season which will be recapped in few days. Because it's ending, something needs to take it's place. What team will it be, you might ask. Well, I'll give you hints: blue, white, Germany, Berlin, FIFA 14, me. Did you guess it? I think so. I'll try to post the first update on Friday.


                        PS. I'm sorry for changing my mind so often and for being a crybaby.

                            Q. So how would you describe your first season in charge Stuart?

                            A. Well words can hardly describe what the lads have achieved. To win a major trophy and qualify for the champions league is more than we can have dreamed of at the start of the season.

                            Q. So would you describe it as a lucky season then? I'm sure Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool will be hunting you down next year.

                            A. Lucky is not what I would describe it as. We worked our socks off every session and match. What we have achieved was earned not gifted. As for the other teams, let them hunt us and they will see we are no one season wonders.

                            Q. Who would you describe as the inspiration behind your success?

                            A. No one person. We had a lot of new players come into the team and some established players who performed well. I expect a few phone calls regarding some of our stars availability.

                            Q. So will you be able to hold on to your players then?

                            A. I would be lying if I said everyone will stay. If the big money comes in and turns a players head sometimes it's hard to stop a move from happening. But do I want to sell them? No!

                            Q. Will you be looking to sign any of your loan stars permanently?

                            A. If the deal is right. Absolutely. Last question.

                            Q. How will your team cope with the added pressure of European football next season?

                            A. The honest answer is I have no idea yet, but the lads are relishing it and I back them to perform even better next year.
                            Probably one of the interviews posted here closest to what a real English league manager would say. Excellent work! Great, realistic writing.

                              I find this odd, really. I used the wages trick and got 16 mil for my second season. Maybe Stu didn't, or maybe he had a bug?

                                Agreed. First Orlov and now Ganchev. The forum will be a lot quieter without you around, Simppu, that's for sure. Hope you enjoy your time away and come back more interested. From my experience, a break does wonders.
