If SI requires the services of a proofreader, I am available for a reassuringly astronomical fee. It should be:

"...on no fewer than four occasions."

**** in a handbasket, I tell you.
 
It gets worse, Burkey, old boy...

How is any self-respecting grammar **** supposed to concentrate on winning the Champions League (...always thought that should be Champions' League, 'cause it's possessive, innit!) while heinous crimes against all that is proper and true - by which I obviously mean the English language - are being committed hither and thither?

Like an all-seater stadium, I will not stand for it! No, Sir!

We shall fight them on the PC; We shall fight them on the Mac; And we shall jolly well fight them on the handheld! For this is GREAT BRITAIN, Sir - not some tinpot Royal Democratic Republic of the Johnny-come-Latelies! Baaaaaarrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh!!!

(Obviously funnier if you read it in Stephen Fry's General Melchet voice - I've been up for a while. I'm very tired.)

I wonder if people would be less or more frustrated if they just reload if they get a "buggy" match?

(I do reload a lot when I think the game's messing with me, but that does bring its own frustrations of trying to just get passed that one obnoxious defeat.)

Reloading is a cardinal sin for me. I NEVER reload.
 
When I tell my players not to get complacent and Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero lose confidence.. How does that even make any sense?

What was the score? Did you play well or has it been an average performance?
 
When you lose 6-5 on pens to Swansea...

You're telling them not to be over-confident, because if they get complacent Paraguay could get back into the game. It's understandable that the two of them would lose a little confidence. Both performed very well and are buzzing only to hear warnings that the team has only just been good enough and that the win is in jeopardy if they relax.

Anyway, losing a little confidence isn't that bad when (I'm assuming) they were probably very confident (which borders complacency/over-confidence) already.
 
I am not playing this game again. Will buy 2015 game if they make huge improvements. So many things they still have not changed. The worst of all is that it is way too easy and the only time I lose is when the computer decides I am doing a bit too well and makes me lose a game. Just had one of those happen to me, which makes no difference as I am top and easily going to go up. But re-loaded to see if I could beat them and tried 4 times and lost every time, and my players look ridiculously bad every time. I reckon I could do that fixture 100 times and I would lose every time. What they need to do is make the game much harder but also not make you lose if you are doing well. Oh and I do not cheat, I am not playing it again as my experiment only shows that it is scripted, and therefore when a game comes along when the computer has already decided I am going to lose, whatever tactics I choose to play makes no difference whatsoever, and probably the same goes for some of my victories as well. **** game.

So you reloaded 4 times with same tactic and lost, and arrived at the conclusion that reloading infinite times with any tactic will result in a loss. Well done, bye.
 
Towards end of second season with stoke, at start of April to be exact, just had a long period of games and then had a 2 week break for internationals, dont have many players that are starters in international teams ie butland, trippier, oliver torres. I am in the quarter final of the Europa League against Ajax, away leg first, pretty confident i could beat them over 2 legs, and what happens in the 2 week break, Balanta out for a month, Butland out for 6 weeks and Vydra out for 3 weeks, Vydra i dont care about so much but the other 2 i do care as they are my starters and have played well all season, now Balanta i can replace with Muniesa but Butland i cant as i didnt sign a back up keeper to him due to funds so only have a youth keeper who is ****, when Butland got injured at start of season, youth keeper played 5 games and conceded 22 goals!! After the break i played Hull away who i had previously beat consistently, my youth keeper was shocking and conceded a goal from the tightest angle and also conceded a goal from 40 yards by Robbie Brady on his weaker right foot and i lost 3-2, i then played Ajax and lost 2-1, why does this game hate me? if i beat Ajax then i get championsiip side Norwich in semi final, i also have loads of games in last month of season and dont have 2 of my main players, the game just had to do something to me whilst things were going well to ruin it for me!
 
Why do I always get a premier league team away in every single FA Cup and Capital One cup draw??????
