These things are really starting to f**k me off. Hopefully a rant will make me feel better.
My keeper watches the ball hit the woodwork, then watches as the ball rolls harmlessly across the 6 yard box. Easy pick up for him, or easy clearance for either of the two defenders in the vicinity. Opposition attacker runs from wherever they are, edge of the box, wide angle, outside of the box - it doesn't matter - and the goalie and two players watch him slam the ball into the goal with no attempt at defending.
I win the championship, yet the players I am trying to sign in the off season seem not to believe i will be in the premiership next year. However when i progress through to season the summary screen and 'officially' move into the premiership, players with no interest yesterday suddenly have an interest in signing for me today - have missed out on countless future free transfers because of this.
Entering premiership with just a £7 million transfer budget (after taking a bit out for wages) despite the projected balance of £40m and TV money alone accounting for more income than the club is spending per year. This is nowhere near enough to attract real talent, so I asked for more at the beginning of August, board says no. I then can't ask for any more money for the rest of august despite the rapidly rising bank balance. Able to ask board for more money just after transfer window closes, am given a huge increase in wage/trans budget but cant F*****G spend it now can i?
Cant get work permits for players who have had 30+ international caps or play for top european clubs and no explanation of the criteria for WPs so I don't know what I'm looking for in a non eu player.
The number of injuries and 'knocks' which see to it that a player has a bad game is INSANE
Assistant's advice during games often completely ruins the teams performance and pieces of contradictory advice offered with no more than a few seconds between them are completely stupid. Shouts only ever have detrimental effects. Changing mentalities seems to confuse the team instead of providing benefit (wouldn't mind all this failure with my sideline instructions/in match tactics if SOMETIMES something you did from the sidelines made a positive difference.)
Some of the best assists I've seen against my team are made by my own players.
EVERY SINGLE THING YOU ADD TO A PLAYERS TRAINING SCHEDULE MAKES THEM PLAY TERRIBLE AND COMPLAIN ABOUT TRAINING - I KNOW, SHALL WE ALL JUST SIT ON THE TRAINING GROUND AND DO CROCHET? WILL THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY? BECAUSE LEARNING HOW NOT TO SHOOT INTO THE F*****G STANDS WITH EVERY SHOT IS OBVIOUSLY TOO BIG AN ASK FOR A PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALLER.
This is probably all my own fault for not knowing tactics etc. but ranting about this F*****G WASTE of a game makes me feel a little bit better
