change to normal centre back the BPD is meant to do long through balls forward, unless they have extremely good passing and vision this will keep turning over possession

Fair enough.

Ball playing defender (to me) suggests tidy, short and sensible passing not hollywood long balls but there you go :p
 
I've had the game since beta and Steam is saying I've played 3 hours. Not sure what it is with this FM and why I haven't been playing it. Better get changing that!
 
i'm on 350 hours...however it does often stay open all day and not actually get played. Just sits running in the background.

Fm14 - 1033 hours...(I only buy every other release)

Ah! Yes, I feel better about myself as I must have let it run for hours while doing other things too. So roughly 150hrs of my life, not too bad.
 
Having a tough season with Wimbledon, first one in league one.

10 games in I've w5,d1,l4 having so many injuries that's wrecking any real progress.
 
Can anyone get the Flut skin working with custom stadium backgrounds? Mines seem to be working with the other skins apart from flut skin, which suggests i have them in the correct directory.
 
Yesterday evening, had9 games left in the season, 6 points clear of Juventus :) I still had to play them, Roma (3rd) Napoli(6th) and AC Milan (4th) though. They've also got a few games against top teams.

Of the next 3 games, 2 i only won with last minute winners after initially going behind.
Now it's 6 games left in the season, Juve have been choking, Roma are level with them, I'm 7 points clear and a game in hand. Juve, AC and Roma still to play for me..

Also got to the Euro Cup 2nd knockout round before being knocked out be St Etienne 5-2 on aggregate. Initial board expectation was to get to the group stage so they're happy with that. Also one of my wonderkid's is developing very well :) Will post screenshot momentarily

EDIT: I'm now choking against Lazio who are actually down in 18th at the moment. They've had 2 shots on target 2 goals, i'm on 7 so far,0 goals, 60 mins gone.

Full time. Annoying. https://gyazo.com/6b343375da57aeb5265b06626c5e17cb

I loved the old CM skins where clicking on a club would display their stadium as a background pic.

I really want a steklo skin for 16, always love that one.
 
Nice dutch wonderkid there.. Looks like he may turn into something special. How did you find him out of interest?

How are people getting on with work permits? I'm still in the Champs so that might not help me but I am struggling with permits. I have 8 players under 21's whom I have scouted and bought over the last few seasons. But they all require permits. 2 players were given permits almost immediately and have turned into first team players but the others are from the darkest depths of the planet and require Spanish or other feeders. I've got both a Spanish affiliate and a Belgium one but that one takes up to 5 years to gain a permit. It's a bit of a nightmare to be honest and its' a lot harder than it was in 15.

I bought him at the start of this season so can't really take all the credit; bought for 10m. Bargain ;)

Something i thought interesting;top 3 goals of the month from the same match? Must've been a pleasure to watch :p

3 games left, 3 points clear, decently better goal difference... Let the nail-biting ensue..

EDIT: Champions champions champions champions, with a game to spare (realistically) :) I can still lose the title, but only if I lose and Roma win by something like 9 or 10 goals. 1st time someone other than Juventus has won Serie A in 7 seasons :)
