I'd file it under "A game of 2 halves". :(

PS. You play v that team quite a lot? I seem to recognise the name for some reason.

Not sure when you're playing it but I played it a couple of seasons ago and used 352v Defensive Man on Man Mixed Passing Long, Counters - aim is to pull them up a bit and get 2 on 2 at the back. I think the first match was a stalemate 0-0 with very little chances either way (I didn't get to watch it). I therefore concluded it was playing defensive too. Started defensive in second, was watching, and changed to Normal after 10 mins. Won by 3 iirc. (I think Peter:rolleyes: played v this last season too),

Whenever I see an X-style up front I always at least match up to it in defence and go Man on Man. I even use 451v against 3n-2w-Xstyle which seems counter-intuitive.

PS My alt team has played against both 2N-3W-1-3W-1 and 2n-3w-2n-2w-1 this season and won both with 442 and 413W2 (but the first of those was a crap team).

Lol, Pawel is Polish name (Paul) and it seem to be very popular there... No wonder it looks familiar, many Poles play the game and many of them name their clubs by themselves...

Repe.

ML***MC****MR
**DMC**DMC***
DL****DC****DR

***ST***ST***
*****AMC*****
***MC*MC*MC**
DL**DC**DC**DR

43.3Q General vs 47.5Q (me).

now I will try all my reserves at last CL match due to no importants :rolleyes:

what will it bring?


..

Guess thats Mourinho style and some will hate me... well I don't care, I don't want any tired or injured players

United update

We were up against CL number 1, and I used all my reserves. CL were IMO I got three troll results and was already out.

Reserves was not well restet most in red, sometimes I wonder if its just a dice toss and nothing more :p

Another draw in the league...

Attachment 49382

League: Buffs FC take on 4th without their glorious leader and concede their 2nd league goal but triumph 3-1.

Again it appears that the team thought the job was done in the first half and delivered nothing thereafter. I really expected a good performance would've produced 6 or 7 goals. (But ofc the opponent went all asymmetric on my ass. ;) )

Ratings were a bit *meh* up front - 2 goal MC Henderson got MoM; but 3x8s and a 9 across the back line probably indicates what produced the win. GK Craig Gordon however picked up his first 6 rating of the season *oops butterfingers?*.
