I've been here before, but I believe I have finally had enough of this. This random number generator just has too much control over my emotions and I'm over it.
I'm sick of spending hours crafting tactics that will get me more posession, more pass completion, more ccc's when all my opponents conjure up is a 40 yard Mauro Formica wonderstrike and go home with the 3 points.
I'm sick of having 6 CCC's and Man City beating me in the FA cup final 1-0 without even registering a shot on goal!!!
I am sick of my strikers missing a ton of CCCs despite being world class.
I am sick of the game arranging the absolute toughest draws possible - Man City, Arsenal then Man Utd in FA Cup, Inter, Man Utd, Barcelona and finally Real Madrid in the Champions league knockout round. Finally I just capitulated to Real Madrid.
I'm sick of trying to improve my youth set-up endlessly, just to have League 2 standard players come through year after year.
I'm sick of Man Utd absolutely wrecking the competion and matching my results round after round, despite having a vastly inferior team to mine.
I am sick of completely and utterly outplaying my opposition just to scrape by on 1 or 2 goal wins.
I'm sick of superman goalies single handedly stealing matches from me.
I am sick of the **** crossbar!!! I truly hate you, how many goals have you denied me.
I am sick of my years of experience with tactics, training and team-talks meaning absolute ****-all when it comes to facing sunderland and just lose to them for the 3rd time in the same season.
I'm absolutely sick of conceding from corners despite trying over 20 ways to defend those **** set pieces.
I'm sick of scouting players for hours just to keep up with Barcelona who just have wonderkids growing like mushrooms in their cantera.
I'm sick of wasting hours upon hours of my life, just to end up disappointed again.
I have been playing since FM 2005 and I have been taking it for far too long. I don't think it's unreasonable to lose a few games a season just due to bad luck, but bad luck has got to have it's limits too. It's just a stupid random number generator and all we are doing is trying to stack the odds in our favor. This is not a football simulation.
I absolutely love football and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time on this forum, but i've had it with FM.
I know it's ironic that I post this on an FM forum, but I know there's people out there that feel the same and I urge you to make this your new years resolution as well.
Let's get off the hamster wheel.
