Giovinco more than anyone in my opinion. Can't wrap my head around him. CL level player. Michael Bradley also ruined his career going back to the MLS.

Robbie from AFTV must go into every game win/win. Arsenal win, or his bank account gets larger.

You lot are linked with Marcos Alonso

Pretty sure it was a certain family that notoriously got famous for a certain football player's murder. That's what fucked him up.

They bought Danny Rose on mine. They bench Mbappe when you face PSG

NP. Worth mentioning that there around around 5 of them, (scout future star) in the catalogue, but they are only applicable for one a season. If you do two, the scout won't leave until the start of the next season.

Within a few weeks you should get an email indicating your scout has returned with a player. That player should be in your youth academy. If he is 16 or older, you can sign him onto the first team.

Is it a problem though? Stats tell a different story. For one, with Pogba, you lot faced bottom half clubs, so it would obviously make sense there would be loads of chances created. And with Pogba injured, you lot came up against Liverpool, Spurs, and us, to which Mourinho set up his side conservatively.

@The Rebel CRS The player is randomly generated. Height, nationality, position, foot, etc. So they could give you a defender for all we know. Dybala is my favorite player in this game.

Here's me thinking Las Putas was an actual club

Nah mate. Career mode secret (kind of). @The Rebel CRS You should try it too. Assuming you lot have been playing FIFA for ages, you should have a tremendous amount of points accumulated for the EA Sports Catalogue. In the Career section of the catalogue, there are a number of different options that are entitled (scout future star) which should cost around 2,000-7,500 points. What it does, is what ever career mode you are playing in, one of your scouts will tell you he is out in Europe trying to find the next best star. A few weeks later, he arrives back and a random generated player aged 16-17 from some country will be in your academy. His ceiling can reach up to 95 I believe. So, what you then do with this player is go in the catalogue again, and find the (focused training) option. Think there are about 7 of them. What it does, is every training session, experience grows double for 5 sessions each. They also grow tremendously on their own if you continue to play them. In FIFA 17 I did the same thing, and my lad was nearly 87 rated before he turned 19.

Because I am not a glass half empty kind of guy. Yes he made 2 clear mistakes that led to United's chances, but he was also the reason why those were only United's chances. I vastly imposed why having a 3 man midfield against teams that press us is crucial, even before you joined this forum. What I am bringing up is that you are so quick to criticise Christensen when he plays bad, (failing to even mention how poor the midfield was that directly led to him underperforming). Yet when Christensen plays well, you without a moment's rest come in and claim it was down to the midfield being so dominate. That is where my issue lies.

He's sound some times, but he often relies on what other people say to support his personal vendettas, to which 99% of the time backfire. I mean just look at this Like what the actual fuck?

None of which are as comfortable on the ball and can play from the back at the level Christensen is at. Throwing out random names you find on google when you search 'best young centre backs' isn't a reasonable argument.

Pretty sure he's 23? Basically said Matic is shit without Kante, which completely contradicts what you have been saying last week. Like I said, walking contradiction

Just finished my first career. Won the league and CL. Switched to a 4-2-3-1 as I was hardly creating anything against teams that parked the bus. *Horn is my 'scout a star' request from Germany. First season and I grew him from a 58 to a 73. The lad is 16 and plays like an 85 rated player. Morata (86) Hazard (91)-------Dybala(91)-------Horn (73) Bakayoko (83) ---Kante (90) Sandro (87)-----Laporte (86)-----Christensen (84)-----Azpilicueta (86) Courtois (91)

Is intercepting a pass not considered defending now? Pretty much cancelled any service that came to Rashford, Martial, and Lukaku. Were you aware he won the most tackles and won the most aerial duels out of our centre backs last night? Or is that one chance Lukaku managed to have all night, completely overshadowing that? Your judgement on him against Roma seems to be the only justification you need on him, which is completely absurd as our whole team was a mess. Against Spurs, City, and United, our defence has looked more organised and comfortable with Christensen in, and that is an absolute fact. But you yourself will claim that he only looked good because we had a 3 man midfield. So by that logic, that would mean he only looked shit against Roma because our whole team was shit. Our whole team was shit against City too, yet Christensen was the only bright spark and Pep definitely made sure he knew that after the game. I will ask you again, how many 21 year olds in today's game shows as much composure, reads the game just as well (surprise, this is considered defending) and can play from the back as good as him? (Bringing up John Terry is an absolute piss take) 5x the defender when he was fighting for playing time at Forest in the Championship. Come on mate.

Apparently, he was 'Let Go' according to some sources. It's no mystery that Emenalo and Conte never saw eye to eye, almost at times avoiding each other. Maybe Roman has realised the issues lie within the board, rather than the manager? And maybe Roman values Conte more than any manager we've ever had and wants Conte to have final say in football matters? A technical director of Conte's choosing? Nonetheless, not sure how I feel about this news as of now. Sure most Chelsea fans will be delighted, but I would be more excited if it were Granovskaia that got the axe.

The 3-5-2 gives us the most solidity in my opinion, but that is only when Kante is there. Same goes with the 3-4-3. Expect us to play the former against top opposition, as control in the midfield is crucial. Still think we need to go after a LWB and another ST in January.

Name me a better 21 year old Centre Back that has as much composure under pressure, doesn't misplace a pass from the back, and can intercept a pass just as well as Christensen. Not many I'd imagine. You have a continuing habit of only focusing on his mistakes, in which they have very little significance when you compare them to what he did well on. Your continuing dislike for Matic is also bizarre, as he was not nearly as shit as you make him out to be. Fact of the matter is, Christensen has appeared against every top opposition this season domestically (Spurs, City, and now United) and has come up with big performances comfortably. Sure, Lukaku spun away from him and got a shot off. Did he score? How many opportunities did Lukaku have after that? Or Kane? Or Jesus? or Rashford?

Hugh Jackman was robbed of at least a nomination. His best ever performance for me.

Taken @Batardat least late 20's Happy birthday mate

Rallying cry from our (real) captain

They lost two big players in Morata and James. A crucial injury to Carvajal (Real's 2nd most important player), Not to mention a very hectic pre-season. They can still pull it around, and sacking Zidane would be retarded.
