Yeah, probably doesn't help that FM has been disappointing for good couple of years now. I know plenty of people who still play FM2010 or something and see 0 reason to upgrade.

Do you guys reckon tomorrows starting line up is going to be a strong indicator (bar those who can't make it like Pogba) as to what our starting line up in the final will be?

Because if he plays the team he has in mind for the final of Europa tomorrow night, they still have a week off. On Sunday he won't play anyone he has in mind to start for Europa final I think.

Nope. Think a few players will play tomorrow.

I didn't even apply to be beta tester for FM this year. So disappointed in SI and FM from 14.

Can't see how they can really change the game much besides prettier graphics and maybe better AI. But AI isn't excatly easy to code.

That's exactly the problem though, they keep doing yearly releases that are nothing more than $60 transfer updates.

Are we on a reduced rate of sponsorship at the moment because of no CL or does it only go down if we fail to qualify this season?

The Adidas deal drops by 30% with no CL football again.

They're due to pay £70 million next year. So that would drop by £21 million. Just reading Utd's chief financial officer anticipating a £50 million or so loss in revenue next year with no CL football.

Talking of, this is an interesting read on the desperate financial times trying to stay relevant without the CL:

You can do a lot. You can make UI look better. You can put in new animations so 3d engine isnt as dull. Dunno about FM17 since I don't own it, but after playing FM16 for couple of months I could tell you if you would score or not based how goalkeeper took goalkick. I aint paying 60$ for transfer update like Tyton said.

They have not changed engine since what, FM12?

Allowing it to descend into some Muppets twitter feed probably drove a lot of people away.

More like people getting fed up of silly arguments that turned into petty name calling of each other and said clubs. And endless ranting after matches ;)
 
So what's people's thought on DDG? The talks already started, he was all but gone last season but for a **** up. He's not travelled with the squad and Mourinho has said that it's likely Romero and Periera will share the last 2 league games. And Romero will defo start the Final. So looks like we won't see him again this season or maybe at all. What's people's thoughts on the price we would be looking at or the players we would be looking at return, in some sort of cash player deal or just straight cash deal? Personally think he's off. Will be gutted and a miss, but not as bigger miss as previous seasons as we are a far better organised unit. I know one thing Mourinho and Ed won't let him go for anything less than his valuation. I would say 50-65m£ cash. Gotta feeling it could also have something to do with the James or Bale talk.
 
cash plus varane and bale dont want james dont need any more number 10 just hope he does not go and sees what mou is trying to build
 
Same deal as last year, cash+Navas. He still has 2-3 good years left in him and Idon't think there's a better goalkeeper currently on the market.
