Yeah. I really want this. Barely played 13 just didn't feel right. Where's the cheapest place to pick it up?

Got to finish batman first though, so do you think it'll drop in the next few weeks?

Punted Bayern out of the Champions League by finishing behind Man City in 2nd whilst playing as Celtic and got Pep sacked before Christmas in his first season. :lol:

Let's see if that's true.

Pep is shite.

Did you have to deal with having no transfer budget in the first season too? I was reduced to plundering the lower leagues for players and in a moment of desperation/rank stupidity signed some boy band guy from Doncaster. :fp:

Had a strange few results in CL qualifying.

Horsed Kalju 9-2 at Parkhead
Beat them 4-0 in Estonia
Draw Sligo in the next round
Only win 1-0 at the Showgrounds despite the back line playing a lot better

I keep getting told there's too big of a gap between my defenders and midfielders but I don't know how to close it, anyone know? (playing a standard 4-4-2).

I remember there was an annoying thing in last gen's FIFA games where if you were still in the Carling Cup and FA Cup in January you had three games in a weekend :dread: I'm pretty sure it was like that for two or three years in a row before they finally bothered to fix it :fp:

Just realised that when I won the league the game was claiming I won the double. Is it counting the charity shield as a serious trophy like Liverpool did with their plastic treble? :dread:

But Liverpool's treble was the League Cup, FA Cup, and UEFA Cup.

Just got promoted with Derby :datass: and I'm furious that it doesn't automatically register you as a premiership team once the seasons have finished. I've missed out on 3 targets because I'm still technically a championship team. :x :x

Done a season with Hearts, who even with a 15 point deduction are quite a fun team to play as, primarily because the youth are of very decent quality (but you do have to pray for sheer dumb luck due to an embargo and being unable to reject player sales)...

I finished 7th, though with the 15 points lost I would've reached 3rd if I recall... I'm looking forward to the next season and some actual investment being allowed...
