Interesting to listen. So much going on for the ref. There should be more restriction to players running into ref, must enforce it more that only captain can speak with them.

Dont think that rule will ever be enforced in football party through lack of will it seems and also what happens if your keeper is your captain and something happens down the other end of the pitch does everyone then have to wait for the keeper to run to the ref to talk about then back to the goal afterwards before play restarts

Then maybe make someone else captain?
A captain on the field has specific duties. Doesn't mean he needs to fill all leadership roles there are. You could have shared leadership or multiple "captains" who share different responsibilities.
 
As some peopel have noticed the discord server has been made for FM base.

"Madley is reported by The Sun to have shared a picture of a disabled man with an insensitive remark about the probability of being able to beat him in a school sports day race."

I don't know what's more idiotic here. The ref, the fact that he got sacked for what seems like sharing a meme that in on likelihood wasn't even made by him, or The Sun of all places calling people out for lack of social sensitivity.

How is Liverpool not seeded after reaching the final. What a bunch of nonsense this system is.

You can only get seeded into pot one by winning one of the 7 major leagues hence why Leicester when they won the Premiership went into Pot one, the other pots are decided by performance in Europe hence why Liverpool made it into pot 3 due in part to missing out on European football in 2016-17 season (coming runners up in the Europa League and Champions League in their last two European competitions actually boosted their co-efficient do well this year and qualify and next season they may make it into pot 2 or even pot 1 (if they win the Premiership). The seeding is quite fair if you look at it that way, the teams who really luck out are those that end up as league champions in their own country but due to their country's standing in Europe end up having to play teams in the qualifying rounds who came 3rd or 4th in the stronger countries.
 
*Top 6 current highest ranked leagues plus the CL and Europa League holders.

Whilst we’re on the subject, props to UEFA for making the draw even more convoluted, longer and more boring than usual. Unique talent they have for that.
 
If anyone could explain why PSG signed Eric Maxim Chupo Moting on a free from Stoke I'd appreciate it.
