  1. He isnt that good, and I can name many far far better players. Corks market value probably sits around 5m, whereas Morgans is atleast 20m imo
  2. Great for clyne to finally be recognised, gibbs gets a call too who has been reasonably steady for a while. Shaw needs to up his game and fulfill his promise he showed when he left here. Shelvey is a steady player too, more versatile then henderson IMO. Townsend ? Dont get that call up really but who else is there right now ?! Striking options are week, glad welbeck is showing how good he actually is, much better then the abuse he gets from the morons and Ive said for ages that he is better than the overly greedy sturridge. Lambert is in there because theres no one else. Its still an incredibly weak squad due to a lack of decent options.
  3. None of them groundbreaking, i get between every 2 fms maybe but every one is hardly ever very different
  4. Id of said its massively changed, for me best fifa yet for gameplay
  5. Dibden pirlieu in still being a massive **** shocker
  6. At the moment IF Reid, picking up for 13k and selling slowly at 19k
  7. Ive not played a single FUT game yet, just trading up. Ill give you a game at some point. Ignore ibra, he is on loan
  8. Certainly ill advised as they'll always be someone that takes offence, though Id find it hard to call it racist tbh
  9. Belfast museum is better, thought the southampton one was ok. Like you say the way it links to the crew is haunting. But I personally thought it was overpriced for what it was. Its a prime oppurtunity to get tourists into southampton and for me it felt rushed. But again, I think Im spoiled as I saw the Belfast one first which I found to be excellent
  10. Yeah will do now, made some investments. Waiting for things to calm as its so unpredictable right now. Prices go from being insanely high to quite low.
  11. Cant see it myself, if true it would be a gig Id kill to be at. I just cant see it though. Weller, as much as I love the man has too much of an Ego to go back
  12. I was recommended by fifa to play on legendary. So far ive played on legendary and world class, started ok but it seems the more i play the worse i get on career mode so far Dabbled a bit on FUT mode but prices are stupidly high and the servers keep crashing. Had 6 packs and packed van persie and hummels so thats 140k of coinage to start with
  13. Im assuming a few of you guys are pretty experienced at fifa ultimate team Any tips as to how to grind some coins out would be much appreciated right now, not a clue
  14. Really looking forward to this, got a quick meeting this morning then working from home. Anticipating another Europe victory though like Medina I think itll be tight. Medina was easily one of if not my favourite sporting moment however, lets hope for another epic
  15. Thats what I meant yes, thats what you get when your trying to listen to the wife in the background
  16. This really, and if you take the time to read it it isnt exactly inflationatory. Neither was the article that is mentioned in the OP either tbh. He has concededwe got away with it this year (so far) and we did, if you genuinely think it could happen everytime then you are sadly mistaken. You dont sell half a team and lose a manager and just dust yourself off like we have done, hence why the bookies and much of the press had us as relegation fodder. Realistically many of us thought we would be ok, I certainly thought we would stumble at first and recover to mid table but what the board and Koeman have achieved is excellent and Im full of praise for them. End of the day Samuals is right. With investment this team (academy willing) could propel itself to a top 6-4 team in a few years, with the right luck and investment. Realistically it wont happen, things like that dont in football these days. He is also right that if we continually adopt this years strategy then we will eventually fail, my main gripe about that is its obvious, and I just dont feel that it will happen. So I do ask myself, yes Samuals can be reactionary in regards Saints, he has in the past, but why the vitriol for his past two articles ?
  17. Dont necessarily know or want to speculate if it was a 'fiddle' though there were definate 'perks' As per the contracts, I believe some were written over his tenure that basically were no where near legally binding and needed sorting out
  18. Because we are crap. There are a multitude of reasons why we arent very good, in the main its attempting to press gang as many recognised players as possible into a system that suits rather then taking a more mourinho approach and picking the system you want and employing players that suit it. In short, the fa need to; reduce the cost of coaching courses to increase take up and pool of coaching talent Ensure that there is a large take up of players playing in the under age tournaments and bring a team through using the same tactics Somehow attempt to tackle the increase in foreign players that are reducing the game time of english talented youngsters
  19. In fact, I think its completely related, the courses need to be affordable to all, then we may catch up with the other european nations levels of qualified professionals and also hopefully increase the amount of 'minorities' involved in the game. Overall though, the whole 'lack of black managers' is crap, im sure if there were black managers with the correct pedigree and experience they'd be being interviewed.
  20. If they were good enough they would get the job, there isnt enough that are good enough unfortunately. Unrelated the FA need to reduce the entry fee to coaching courses accross the board though.
  21. Like I said because Davies doesnt know or has played with any other player in the team, its willfull ignorance and naivety thinking that you can just marry up 11 outsiders just because they are 'in form' its rediculous and doomed for failure. You moan about 'gelling' a team over summer yet believe you can chuck 11 random internationals together and hope for the best ? Make your mind up. There is a reason why more or less every national team and our past x amount of managers call up groups of players with a few one offs, its because of familiarity
  22. All but Lovren for the right prices. They dont turn into bad players overnight after all
  23. Fair enough dune
  24. Exactly is, he is the rolls royce engine in this team. Surely we cant keep hold of him forever ? What a player he is though, simply exceptional. Ive been saying he is our best player since league 1, and I honestly dont think he is far off the best midfielder in the prem, certainly in his position.
