That's not my team, you silly sod.
THIS is my team!
Also not pictured in the Stoke squad were Ciro Immobile and Christian Tello. Literally JUST united.
>>69425972
How'd you sign Hazard?
>>69426038
Beginning of my fourth season I started with about 60 mil in transfer budget and Chelsea were languishing in mid table. Activated a 48 mil release clause after selling a mouthy 20 year old for 40 mil to Dortmund. He's on bonkers wages, but until his heel exploded in the last 5th of that season he was doing very well indeed.
Also Embolo and Hazard are supposed to be swapped.

Lads it's February 2017 in my save and I've found a player whose contract expires 30/6/2017, but it's not letting me approach to sign him on a free transfer. Can't you usually do it if there's 6 months or less left on their contract?

That's not how Florentino does things.
>>69437571
CR is getting older and older
soon he slows down and god forbid starts balding and his merch value goes down the toilet
buying pogba w world record fee would make him very marketable, though his problem in that department is, unironically, that he's black.

>>69439477
What did you expect a small country to play like? I'm sure you were rooting for Iceland like everyone else and they played like shit every game.
>>69439417
serious answer:
No affinity with a team in Suriname. all shit amateur teams, id say most matches get 50 people watching at most.
Football is in decline in the country
That really is not the reason but just to sketch a background in the state of football in suriname.
Most people watch football from la liga epl and serie a
Most people fans of barcelona
My dad fan of real madrid,watched them since I was a kid so you just you know, it grows on you.
You get favourite players some stay some go.
I cna understand if people go all boo bandwagoners etc and couldnt you have chosen a team that is more difficult to support etc.
Sometimes you cant chose, its a feeling
So yeah thats my main reason, been watching real for a good 19 years now?
>>69439477
I want Portugal just to prove how silly this tournament format is. A team with no wins in normal time until the semi final winning the whole thing.
Also, 2004 Greece win, 1992 Denmark win, the dodecannual meme team win tradition must be upheld.
>>69439577
But West Germany won Euro 1980 and they were not a meme team.
Although Belgium were runners up so meme teams making the final is maybe a thing.
>>69439563
>tfw go to bar in town
>Copa America finals on
>everyone is cheering for Argentina because of Missi
>cheer for Chile because of my goat Chilean regens

fair enough
>>69439577
I think it's duodecennial
>>69439577
>>69439637
And Yugoslavia runners up in Euro 1968 losing to Italy.
Safe to say if your nation doesn't exist any more then you were a meme team. So yeah meme finalists is the pattern.
>>69439637
Smarmy answer 1:
West "Germany" doesn't even exist anymore, how is that not meme?
Answer 2:
*since 1992
>>69439686
I googled it. Still couldn't find the correct answer. You're probably correct. Mine is Greek, yours is Latin.

Mitebcool desu.
But I thought that last year and stayed up late to watch it only to be very, very bored. The couple of years prior to that were pretty good though, Pep chimping out was fun.
Gotta think that midfield and attack is decent enough but defence and goal pretty shaky so might be good for a few goals.
this reminds a lot about something

Redders is cheese af at the start of FM16, makes sense that Southampton signed him irl.
I suppose there's no hope for him, or my AssMan has shit in his eyes. I suppose on a global scale that only two of the yuffs I've poached haven't developed is a decent success rate. Unlike the previous one, I'll wait for him to be labelled "HG" before selling him.
>>69440665

Nice save. I always liked Rui Patricio, though I think I like Griezmann a tad more.
I'm new to FM and I'm wondering, which version should I get? I'm reading reviews on Steam saying FM2016 is shit and I'm confused
>>69443904
He doesn't, he plays as a winger for some dumb reason although he constantly bangs on about how his best position is CAM
>>69443904
He generally plays as a winger because somehow he's less of a waste of space there than in the centre
>>69444143
>Listening to Steam reviews
>>69444143
Most people in here will say get 15.
>>69444078
Ha, I'm at basically the same date in my game and Jovetic is starting for PSG.
There's no way Payet will stay in West Ham.
>>69444143
I think you can try out the demo fro FM16, see if you like it.
>>69444369
Every sign points to the fact that he will, actually. They're competing for CL football next season.
>>69444233
