SG Draft Competition--FM Phase!

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah, I updated the first post. Can you try to figure out why only a couple of the images show up?

 

[Back Door Skip]

The Replacements 3-2 Legio III

Awesome!!!


One question though. Is there any reason Falcao isn't on the roster?


Edit: images were working then I refreshed and now won't load up. Weird.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah, the last image is all the injuries and Falcao was out injured. I don't think Nani was supposed to be a starter either.

 

[MaSsiVe]

Quite a lot of injuries all around, glad my players came out of the match intact.

Iniesta out for 2 months, ouch

 

[Pogba4Now]

Yes, I'm "managing" every team and go on vacation before every match telling the assistants to keep the tactic and squad selection. Each assistant is exactly the same in terms of attributes.

In that case, you are likely to be sacked by some teams within a few months.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

In that case, you are likely to be sacked by some teams within a few months.

This will definitely happen. Each team has the expectation of a mid-table finish. I'll just create a new manager and take over the team.

But for the record, the only time I go on vacation is for the games (so the assistants take control), I'm very tediously pressing continue a billion times between games.

Match Day 2:

 

[Back Door Skip]

Uh oh, Massive Attack is next. Hope Falcao is ready for that one!

 

[Arnau]

Great work ShiftyPowers, thank you for this.

 

[Mus]

Why didn't Criscito play for me? Is he injured? I wasn't on the injury screen..

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yup.

I've gotten PMs about this stuff too. Guys, I know you might not believe me, but I'm not trying to tank your teams. I want this to be as fair as possible. For my team I'm even using the weird asymmetric formation that I tried in the voting phase.

 

[Mus]

Cheers, I thought so I just wanted to make sure

 

[Alex]

Shifty, were players match fit at the start of the season? In real life they have a pre season to get match fit, I imagine on this they didn't? This would have lead to more injuries etc during the first week.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Yeah there was a pre-season. This is how my 3 stars RvP, Robben and Busquets got injured. How come my first, second and forth pick got injured right at the beginning? Why didn't Maxi Pereira or Luis Enrique get injured instead?

 

[MaestroZidane]

going thru this thread has made me want to try this out, I shall wait for next season (if there is one) to give it a shot.

Great job Shifty!!

Shifty, were players match fit at the start of the season? In real life they have a pre season to get match fit, I imagine on this they didn't? This would have lead to more injuries etc during the first week.

Of course there was a preseason. There weren't 30 players injured in the first week.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

I figured it out. Can't believe I didn't figure it out from the beginning. For whatever reason I can't post images AFTER a youtube video. Video highlights are now at the end of all posts.

What teams did they play against? Not that it's a big issue and I'm being a bit picky but if teams are paired against harder teams, and lose, their morale goes down. Winning easy friendlies is an easy way to get higher morale.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

It was random, but keep in mind that all the "good teams" lost a LOT of players to our teams. I noticed a lot of MLS teams in there.

EDIT: ahhhh fuck, I just noticed I don't have a striker for next week

 

[Dytza]

Why don't you make separate threads for each Round and let this only for discussions?

Great work!

 

[4ndr3i]

This is awesome! I have a feeling I'll trash Mus's Down Under in the next game. Pogba to be the hero. Don't let me down son!

Also, it's nice to see Xifio's team is off to a flying start.
