    Salim Khelifi - Worth a Punt

    I will say, this is in the Swiss league and I'm playing as Basel, so the opposition may not have the best defensive ability. But I picked him up for 900k pounds and he is the highest goal scorer in my team by some distance - 14 in all competitions and the next best is 5 and it is only...

    Seamus Coleman

    Coleman is picking up yellow cards every second match and also got 3 in match reds over the course of my season - 2 English comps and one in the Europa League. My tactics aren't set to rough up the opposition, and he plays as a wing back primarily. His aggression is 16, which I guess could...

    Players who hand in transfer requests

    So I tend to pick mid table teams to play as in the game. I always have one or two of my top players begging to be let go. I try to get them to stay, but if the usual promises of higher finishes doesn't work, I tend to give in just to keep the squad harmony high. I always find that at the end of...

    Your perceptions vs actual stats

    In my Everton save I bought Vladimir Weiss and over his first two seasons he has been outstanding...or so I thought. I watch him in the games and I swear hes getting the ball all the time and setting up every second goal and scoring heaps. But I must be imagining it all. I was about to come on...

    Junior Hoilett

    I can't seem to find a way to get him playing well. I'm in my 4th season, so he has developped well, but I've tried played him all across the attacking line with different tasks but he just won't function well. It is his first season and he may not have clicked with the team, but I have had...

    Everton - Targeting Europe

    A changing of hands... Everton FC have revealed that they and David Moyes are to part ways effective immediately. While the decision is being touted as amicable, there are reports that agitation between the board and manager, plus the lack of funds for the transfer market, have forced Moyes'...
