LOL, wut?!

I mean I saw it and all but I didn't really understand how big of an affect it can have on your guys. I'm quite sure I wasted many careers with my ignorance. In fact the first thing I did upon starting my new game is set up all my training regimens for everyone.

On the positive side, Eden Hazard may be coming to town.

Did you DL some training schedules or are you doing your own?



Circle jerk?

It pisses me off. Liverpool needs a left winger IRL. Have you heard his name floated out there once? Nope.

I do my own training schedules. I've had decent success with them from just experimenting with different guys.

I'm now part of the Eden Hazard circle jerk as he's coming to Anfield. Liverpool needs anyone with remote understanding of how to play winger in real life.

Its weird not seeing all the guys I've bought over the years now when I look at my team. Here's to hoping Torres puts up another 54 goal season at some point like he did for me in the second year of my other save.

15 minutes into the domestic season and both Messi and Iniesta go down with injury.

[Fappin Raptor]

WTF!

Everton are selling Rodwell for only 6.25! Apparently he requested a transfer. My bid was excepted but he claims he doesn't want to play for Liverpool.

I offered him a huge deal to maybe convince him otherwise.

Odd. I played a whole season with Everton and Rodwell hadn't made a peep as he was only a sub with the odd start here and there.

[Fappin Raptor]

Makes sense because I offered him that new contract.

Now for the bads new. Messi goes down for 4 weeks. Iniesta is down for 7-8 weeks with a broken collarbone.

You'll like this...

It reminds me of my Michigan dynasty I'm playing on NCAA. Forcier is out for 5 weeks, and Robinson is out for 6 weeks. I'm left with Gardner who has isn't exactly lighting the world on fire.

It sucks but gives the younger guy a chance to play. I'll get to play Jeffren/Adriano & Busquetts more than they'd usually get to play which will help me out in the long run.

[Fappin Raptor]

Just had a FM first: Luis Suarez goes to R. Madrid instead of Chelsea.

[Fappin Raptor]

Dammit! More injuries! Recently acquired Diego Renan goes down for 2-3 weeks and Masch goes down for a month. And those happen during international play.

[Fappin Raptor]

I don't know what the hell is going on. Jeffren goes down for 3 weeks now.

So that makes my injury list:
Jeffren
Masch
Messi
Iniesta
Renan

[Fappin Raptor]

And now David Villa goes down.

EDIT: It's only for 3-4 days.

Thats another thing I want to do this time around is go domestic more than I go foreign. Lets just say my Liverpool team was like a United Nations of soccer in my other save.

[Fappin Raptor]

Opening day formation looked like this:

-----------Villa--------
Pedro---------------Messi
------Xavi----Iniesta----
----------Masch----------
Abidal-Puyol-Pique-Alves

One month in it now looks like this:

-----Saul------Neymar---
Bojan----------------Pedro
---Busquetts----Xavi-----
Abidal-Puyol-Pique-Alves

That's what I want to do more of as well. Go for only the Spanish guys over anyone else. I usually ended up with the UN, too. Even with Everton.
