You didnt mention Essien or Kalou. I ended up using Kalou and Sturridge as wings my first season when I got in a pinch, but I was always looking 2 or 3 games in advance to find a game to use them there. My biggest problem was a backup for Lampard the first half of the first season. I struggled...

The best way to tell if they are going to be able to sign and go on loan is through the scouts. If the scout says in his recommendation to not try and sign them because of a WP problem then thats your clue that he wont be able to come. If I am able to sign and then send off on loan to get the...

Is it really true that CCC's and shots dont matter because I have never seen a football magically teleport itself into a goal all by itself. Its always put there by a player in some way that is executing the skills and tactics they were trained in. But on the other hand, whats the point of...

I had a game the other day where I had 24 shots with 17 on target 8 CCC 3 1/2 chances 1 Woodwork 2 blocked. The opposing GK had 13 saves and it ended 0-0. Its very frustrating when the game just decides you are not going to win. 11.2.1 by the way.

His stamina does effect his game, he can make it a whole game but you will start getting the exhausted message around the 75th minute. It really effects his recovery though. He really doesnt have the stamina to play more than once a week. He complains a lot about his training also. If you have...

Also the reason that Lampard is unhappy is because Terry and Lampard are linked together very closely in the game. If you praise or get onto either of them you can count on the other ones morale going up or down also. If you want to get back on Terrys good side, start with Lampard. Then maybe...

I have him on my Chelsea save. He is a good player but a bit of a bother. I brought him in as a backup and was getting him some minutes at the end of some matches. I had a bunny cup game and started him. He started, scored a goal and ended up with a 8,4 rating. Immediately after the match, his...

I have a player who was on the team when I took over that needs a work permit. He was on loan at my feeder club when I took over the team. When my second year rolled around I sent him back to the feeder club no problem. Its late June starting my third year as manager and I send him to my feeder...

Wickham has been slow to develop for me so far. I am in Jan of season 2 (Chelsea) and so far his progress has been disappointing. I was hoping for him to be the long term replacement for Drogba. I got him on a good training program first season (dunc's) and tutored him with Drogba. Moved him to...

My game is starting to get a bit out of hand. I'm playing a Chelsea save right now. They have quite a few aging stars that are going to be replaced over time. I have been given good transfer and wage allowances so far so I have been trying to pick up a couple of replacements each transfer...

I brought Neymar into my team pre season of my first year, He played OK throughout the first half of the season. I was getting the messages about him having trouble blending in due to the language barrier. During the January transfer window the board gave me some extra money so I bought Neymars...

Santos is a pretty fun team to manage. There is a ton of young talent on that team.Neymar, Henrique, Alan Patrick Ze Eduardo, Kerrison, plus a few more. If I remember correctly the wage budget is pretty low and you have a little over 500k transfer budget. I only signed a couple of free transfers...

I was playing my Chelsea Save tonight. I am in the June Transfer window of the second season. Drogba is starting to decline some and he is in his last year of his contract so I decided to do a little shopping around. I decided to make a play for Hulk. Listed value was a little over 5 million...

Following this has generally given me good results. http://www.fm-base.co.uk/forum/f72/woifsongs-teamtalk-guide-t29092.html In short what it says is if you are favored, and there are reports of complacency, use "expect a win" as the general team talk with individual talks to the players that...
