I used to have this problem all the time until I found out that reason for this was dust on the fan, causing my laptop to overheat. Hopefully your problem is only this. I'd only had my laptop for about 8 months before all the overheating problems. The key thing is to get a can of compressed...

I had a Chelsea regen striker called Jacinto Teixeira on FM13. Although he was from Portugal, he only ever played for one club, and was so good that he was already in the team as a retrained AM at 18. After club captain Falcao got old, Teixeira took his place as striker and captain. He always...

As Chelsea, I bought Andreas Cornelius for ?15m after he top scored in the Premier League in 2013-14 (he seemed to do that in every save). First game, he did his ACL and was out for 7 months and never came back the same player. 2 season-long loans to Swansea and Roma didn't help, and I managed...

This guy is too cool

This video doesn't even show the worst of the goalkeeping. The ball was metres outside the box for about 5 seconds whilst the keeper tip-toed towards it with the striker still around the halfway line. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVAqioZ_8Tc

What do you think is specifically so bad about it? This is my favourite FM since FM07 but I'm interested to hear your reasonings as to why this is the worst FM/CM of all time.

Interesting. I only usually load two or three countries, and not all the leagues in the country. I find it takes too long between matches otherwise and is very slow after 10 seasons.

It depends how busy he is. If the keeper is only making 1 or 2 saves a match he's not going to get a 7.5 rating. My keeper usually rates the highest when I lose as he saves more shots, even though he concedes a couple.

Everyone remembers the late goals they concede to lose a game. However, a fair share of Fergie time goals seem to go our way every season. We just forget those incidents as we're too busy patting ourselves on the back for out brilliant tactics.

I always keep two tactics with the same or similar formations, and usually keep those tactics for the whole time I'm at the club, apart from one or two minor changes to player roles or instructions. When things get desperate, I start to innovate.

A useful way to overcome large wages for new contracts on your time is to pay the player more than he wants so that you can add the optional extension to three years, giving your young starlet a 5-8 year contract. How much do you make in sponsorships every season?

I was a bit annoyed at this own goal as I was leading 2-1 in a relegation six pointer at this stage. I still had to laugh anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nidFWwGrLg

I once made a solid start to the Skrill Premier with an attacking formation and style despite a very weak team, and got about 30 points in 20 games. I think I won one game for the rest of the season and my formation became more and more defensive as I seemed to get mild improvements whenever...

I might have exaggerated on the shots count. However, that also happened a few times before the patch, and I'm playing on 14.2.1 currently and it's happened to me twice in four years, the only years I've been on top at the start of a season.

The most annoying thing for me is when, after I've started the season with a 7 game winning streak and think I could be shock promotion or title contenders, I realise I next face a team who are bottom of the league and have a goal difference of -25 so far. Instantly I know I've lost. Sure...
