    injury prone players

    highly debatable, ask most Liverpool fans.. when Sturridge is out injured, there are calls to sell him at the next chance.. and when he is fit, he's among the finest finishers in the game and IRL.. what do you do with players like these? talented, but injury prone. high wages comparatively...

    Players with a "competitive streak"

    There are a number of players you'll find in the game who have a competitive streak.. Most of them have a higher aggression rating, low composure etc, and often pick yellow cards, senseless ones.. and also at times pick up the red jeopardizing the team's chances.. even if the instructions are...

    Giangliugi Donnarumma

    Can't really find a thread for him.. so here it is.. I picked him for my Liverpool team at the start of 1st season as a back up to Mignolet.. I guess by November Mignolet was benched, and Donnarumma started most matches through the season.. Second season I picked Rulli for free, but...

    Look who is back: "IL Capitano" taking over the Red & Black!

    It was probably scripted somewhere, and had to happen one day.. It wasn't about if or not, but rather, when! Though there was no way I expected this day to come so soon, but missing out on Europe, doing so bad in the league, a deteriorating team, performances, ambition.. my team lacked soul...

    Brendan Rodgers IRL...

    Couldn't find another apt place to discuss on the topic.. With the latest news from Liverpool being that of sacking BR, what do people here think of the same? I mean he took us to an awesome 2nd place finish, but imho it was more to the individual brilliance of Suarez rather than BR's master...

    4-1-2-3: Attack, Control, Score, Defend!

    My first time posting a tactic here, and I wanted to try a style where possession while not the most important objective, was still something I wanted to maintain- take control but not just for the sake of it.. make something happen for real! The 4-1-2-3 formation is what I like the most...

    the correct FB/WB to use behind a Raumdeuter?

    With the Raumdeuter expected to roam around the pitch and leaving his flank exposed to opposition's wide players, what sort of player role should the full back behind him occupy? LFB/WB/FB/IWB/CWB and what duty for the same? Also, what sort of duty should an IF on the opposite flank have...

    Making a 3-4-1-2 work...

    I am attempting to make my team play 3-4-1-2... reason to play 3 at the back is mostly due to the lack of a top left back, and to suit the players I have... I am in the summer of 2019, and the following players would be more or less the primary starters: GK : Marc Andre Ter Stegen CD ...

    How would you rate this guy?

    How would you rate this CB? I just bought him for my team, and when I scouted him earlier, he had 1.5* CA, and 4* PA. Now that he's in my team, the black part of the 4* is missing, and he is rated at only 1.5 full golden *! Personally I think his attributes are very good for a CB, and he...
