thanks, sent over
Bro there are a LOT of errors on your database with Arsenal - are you sure you sent me a new database? :/

Here are some I noticed straight off the bat.

- Rosicky signed a new contract in March. Same money I think it's a 2-year extension (2016)
- Rosicky should also have Attacking Midfield right increased. He played really well there several times.
- Mertersacker signed a new contract at the same time too. He would have got a rise.
- Andries Jonker needs a major update to match other top-4 clubs HoD... keep in mind he was manager of Bayern!
- Steve Gatting is U21 manager.
- Carl Laraman is U21 assistant manager.
- Frans de Kat is U18 manager (and needs stats boost).
- Jan van Loon is U18 assistant manager


- Aaron Ramsey got the BEST tackling and marking stats when he was defensive midfielder!!! He needs to be B2B or DLP DEFEND. His tackle % were far superior to anyone else in the league for a very long time.

Aaron Ramsey Football Statistics | WhoScored.com

He should have stats similar to that of Vidal but just a little "less" if that makes sense. Right now he's basically a Wilshere which isn't anything reminiscent of real life. This season he's been the closest thing to Vidal who's been the best in that position for the past 3 season IMO.

- Aaron Ramsey should also be just "CM" with 14 for the other positions. He can't play AMR and he's never played AMC so it's stupid to have them there. Just a thought. If not I can change this myself if others want that still. I just don't think it's realistic personally.

- Sanogo needs injury proneness adjusted. He was never injured the second time. He was injured once as in he broke his leg. Anyone who breaks their leg cannot play. Since then he's recovered and for 3 months spent in France getting bulkier then came back trained 3 months with us. Arsene Wenger has gone on record for this and it's something I highlight when I talk about the dangers of Journalism to some of my students.

- Samuel Galindo is gone.

- Abou Diaby isn't injured for 9 months anymore.

- Hector Bellerin needs a MANUAL increase. His -9 PA is rarely if ever achieved because of this. He's currently got a few stats that are low I'm assuming in the editor and this impacts on his development. He's had an amazing season. It's bs that all other teams have such good youth players when in reality they have NOT had even remotly near the amount of youth players come through as Arsene era Arsenal have? Just count all those who started or came through our clubs ranks and you'll see what I mean.

- Our budget is a "fair" amount but our wages aren't. We can afford 300k wages. Wenger has stated so many, many times. And now that we've lost Sagna and lots of deadwood it should also be increased so I think that needs drastic adjustment.

- Thomas Vermaelen is no longer injured and will be most likely sold. His current injury status makes that kind of impossible in the first window.

- Francis Coquelin can do with maybe a PA drop.

That's all I can find for now. Can you please send the update with those adjustments? It's kind of **** to have to do it myself because it makes it less fun knowing. I want you to use your common sense but rationally see how unfair of a hand we've been dealt here especially in the case of some of the stats. The rest I can understand aren't that important to some but still I think eat out of your budget and annoy the **** out of you when you have to sign players to contracts they've already signed to IRL when I know other teams are well monitored.

/rant, lol

Will take a look, and send it over again
 
Oh, I forgot one. Monreal was used at LM a few times by Wenger late in games. He should be LB/LM because again... players who perform in positions CAN be recognised in that position. For a player who's either never played nor played well in a position then you shouldn't ever list it. That's why I said what I said about Aaron and why I think Monreal deserves LM too.
 
And another. Cazorla also signed a new deal. His should end either 2018. Pretty sure he's on 80k or 90k now.

Zelalem did too but that's easily done in the game by the user. These ones I'm mentioning because their pay hasn't necessarily been increased a great deal but if I try negotiate these deals Cazorla wants 120-130k which is ridiculous.

Ramsey is staying CM/CAM - you can change that yourself if you want to, Monreal ill make his rating a little higher for LM but he'll have to be trained to be natural

High wages on contract offers, get used to that on FM
 
I've been playing since 97.

FYI, he isn't CM/CAM. He's CM/CAM/R so I understand that yes you agree that he shouldn't be AMR. Because he currently is on your database. On the stock database he's just CM. If you make him AMC having never played there it's kind of silly. Leave him with mostly 14's so if someone wants to try train him there they can. But if he's never played there why do it? Even for Wales he starts deep and goes up... I've never seen him play behind a striker. But up to you. If you want to make him just MC/AMC I agree it's still better than having him play as a right-winger when that's when he played his worst. Defeats the purpose of it saying "accomplished" if he never played there and should be "uncomfortable" on the wings so that players are forced to train him if they want him to play there. Because he's never done it in real life.

I did a quick edit of what I think Ramsey should look like... only minor changes, dropped passing as it's not necessarily one of his strong traits and still misplaces passes. I improved tackling, marking, positioning and pace (by 1). Dropped passing and creativity as those other ones are more important. Again, up to you, but use as a guide if you find it handy.

Look forward to your revised update because currently Arsenal is terribly inaccurate while it seems other teams have had more attention. I could go on and on forever about the bias towards Chel$ki, Manure and Liverpool be it their youth ranks or their players but I won't go there.
 
I had a mistake:

Ran Ben-Shimon as manager of Maccabi Petah Tikva

Yitab/Yitav Luzon assistant manager
 
Eran Zahavi contract extension until 2018

Shimon Harush to Maccabi Netanya

Alban Bunjaku to Derby, 2 year deal

Any chance he could get a little potential upgrade? Seems a little low for a kid who was at Arsenal and Sevilla youth, cheers

Done, he has been increased slightly in both CA and PA

Aaron has played on the right wing though. I think it was only for a couple of games, it might have even only been one, but I guess it was at a point when we were really desperate.

I was quite a few, the reason why i added AMR into his positions

seemed Wenger was intent on putting his better players all in the side even if it did not suit them
