Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?
Really surprised you didn't try to pick up another CB as that felt like a major need for me when I started my career mode. And I am also shocked you traded away Wilshere AND Ozil. I would have kept one of the 2, to build that midfield around. Are you planning on addressing the CB in the winter at all? If so who are you thinking of bringing in.Comment

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?
Hey guys, sorry I've not posted in a while. I've been dealing with some personal issues, a good friend of mine miscarried a few months ago and now needs to go to rehab for cocaine addiction, so I've been trying to sort that out. I haven't really been interested in gaming at all, and I don't think I will be for a while.
When things are sorted, I'll come back to Parma, but it will be some time, and I may start over from the first window. Not sure. But at this point, I will be away for at least a few weeks.Comment

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?
No apology is necessary bud, real life comes ahead of this everytime, hope your friend manages to kick the addiction, been through that myself and it's a long road but it can be done. Just be there no matter what when needed, having good people around will help your friend massively.Comment

Athletic Club Bilbao
Off-season
Cruzerr named Coach of the Year; accepts coaching job of the Spanish national team
Coach Javier Cruzerr has been awarded the La Liga Coach of the Year award, as he had a successful season with Athletic Bilbao.
After Bilbao came second 2013-14 season in the league, coach Cruzerr was brought in to improve the team. While many were sceptical about his work and his knowledge of the game, Bilbao finished the season in second place, infront of Real Madrid and Barcelona, losing the titlerace closely to Atletico Madrid.
Coach Cruzerr felt very honored, yet is not convinced that his work is done. "We had a good season that, hopefully, we can build on. I don't think the season ended as we wanted in to end, so I believe we have a lot of loose ends to finish."
That was not the only announcement. The coach has also accepted the coaching job of the Spanish national team. Spain, who is currently first in the European Championship qualifiers, has now got a new coach with a new attitude. Cruzerr will make his coaching debut in the qualifier games against Austria and Switzerland.
Bilbao announces new kits for 2015-16 season!
While most people thought Bilbao would make their first changed involving the roster, they have changed their kits!
The first kit from left will be their home kit, which stays the same from last season.
The second kit, the middle one, will be their away kit, which they will use in the league. Last year this kit was their away kit in the Champions League.
The third kit, which is the newest and oldest one, will be their away kit, which they will use in the Champions League. The kits design is identical with the kit used in the year 1902!
Whether these kits will actually help the team out, is not certain. However, this could be the start of a new and improved look of Bilbao.
Oprah is going to interview coach Cruzerr; leave your questions!
Yes, you heard it here first! The famous Oprah Winfrey is going to interview the new coach of Spain and the current coach of Athletic Bilbao, Javier Cruzerr!
Yet this time, Oprah wants your help! She wants you to leave your questions to the coach! You can ask anything you want and as many questions as you want, as long as they are not inappropriate.
Oprah will take your questions for the next 3 days, and then will present them to the coach!Comment

Williams fooled the defender into showing the wrong way before blowing past him and finishing on the far post to open the game. Kanarya took advantage of a bad throw by the keeper to score on the open net and equalize. In an embarrassing play for the opposing keeper, van Nieff played a ball right through his legs to take the lead once again. Williams played a ball through the defense for Grimes to strike first time with his weaker right foot to the far post and put the game away.
Crawley Town 2 - Exeter City 5
CRA - Keane 60', Harrold 72'
EXE - Wilson 13', 22', 63', 82, MacDonald 56'

MacDonald then headed one in after a great cross from Williams from the right side of the box. Crawley Town then got one of their own when Keane headed in a deflected ball after the Keeper saved a shot. Wilson added a third goal when MacDonald crossed the ball into the center of the box and Wilson tapped it back to the left post and in. Harold gave Crawley another goal with a nice left footed strike. Wilson then had an easy tap in for this 4th goal of the night after Robinson sent in a grounded cross in front of the net.
Exeter City 2 - Notts County 0
EXE - Williams 39', Wilson 57'

Youth Academy
Adam McCartan (Northern Ireland) 17 years old 50-54 OVR 74-80 POT.
- Adam has made great use of his technical gifts to be a playmaker in the CAM role with the youth teams.
Andrew Wynne (United States) 16 years old 45-47 OVR 71-77 POR.
- Andrew has yet to find his position for the future. He plays all over the midfield and as a forward for the youth teams, it remains to be seen which he will stick with.
Carl Little (Northern Ireland) 16 years old 41-43 OVR 74-80 POT.
- Carl Little has stepped up for the youth team playing as a center back. The 16 year old hit his growth spurt that the youth doctors were expecting and now stands at 6'1" giving him a bright future in the center of the defense.
Chris Dean (United States) 17 years old 45-47 OVR 70-74 POT.
- Combined pace with creativity has made him a natural for the CAM role. He is the first American signing brought over by Tex Bumosix to the youth academy.
Jay Holmes (England) 15 years old 53-67 OVR 79-94 POT.
-Jay Holmes has the look of something special. His technical abilities are far beyond his age and enable him to be extremely effective in the CAM role of the midfield. He is no doubt one to keep an eye on moving forward.
Josh Meenan (Northern Ireland) 15 years old 46-48 OVR 72-78 POT.
- The young boy from Northern Ireland has natural talents at keeper, but his future will be determined on how much he grows over the coming years since he is standing only 5'7" at the moment. If he hits a growth spurt as expected, his future seems bright.
Paddy McEleney (Northern Ireland) 17 years old 49-51 OVR 74-80 POT.
- Another giant in the academy to challenge for the keeper position of the future. Standing at 6'3" he isn't quite as tall as Tootle, but has plenty of the height required for his position.
Exeter City Player of the Month
Leon Robinson
Leon Robinson playing from his right back spot had an impressive month with his combination of defense and scoring ability. Even though he only scored two this month, what stood out was that both were game winners. The more memorable one was his big run and goal to win the J. Paint Trophy for Exeter.
Press Conference
Q: What an impressive month, let's start with the last match where you secured the J. Paint Trophy. In a match that went back and forth, you were able to pull through in extra time. What can you say about your player's performances?
A: I couldn't be more proud. We have taken home this trophy two years in a row now, and with how things look, we may never play in this competition again. That makes it all the more special to win this while we can. And of course, the play of Leon Robinson to score the winner in extra time was outstanding. He will be a very special player for us for a long time.
Q: You increased your lead over Sheffield united to 6 points with only 1 month of matches left to play. Is the title yours to win at this point? It is certainly hard to imagine the current form you are in running out down the stretch.
A: It is absolutely ours to win, but that also makes it ours to lose. Hopefully we can keep winning matches early and secure the title and be able to give some younger players a chance at the end of the month. However, until we know for sure that it is ours, we won't pull back one bit.
Q: The long awaited debut of Luke McClure looks to be coming soon. He has been called up to the senior squad, and one of the more promising players to come through the academy is poised to make his first appearance sooner rather than later. How early do you plan to have him out there?
A: Well I think he is ready to contribute, which is why I called him up. I wouldn't throw someone out there if they weren't ready, and I think he can handle it. With McDonald's current suspension you may see him out there much sooner rather than later to help on the wing. I think the supporters will know soon enough that he is more than just hype.

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?
The votes are in folks! I will be playing with Cesena from now on! I hope everyone who wanted to voted did, because the poll is now closed. There was an amazing 16 votes. The Seria A side came out on top by a clear 25%. They triumphed 10-6 over the super league career. First update SHOULD come tomorrow.Comment

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?
Congratulations on winning the J. Paint... Again!! Great work man and with your league performances it looks like you'll have the title as well. Leon Robinson was quite impressive this month. A right back that has the skill to run up front and score is outstanding. I didn't see Wilson score much though :/ I saw he scored 4 in one game which is amazing, but after that he only scored one more goal and that was it right? I hope he's at least putting in good performances on the field so he can go into the Championship with confidence.Comment

Re: How's Your FIFA Career Mode Going?
Oh, don't you worry about him! He has a chance to go for 40 goals in league play this season. Yes I said 40! Gotta love the combination of lower competition and a longer league schedule due to the lower leagues having more teams. He got more rest this month than he usually does, but the games he was in he really stepped up.Comment
