Rich for a man with 20 goals and 2 assists...

I'll take them as recompense for you re-gifting Pirlo... haha.

Some of the prices don't make sense, I sold Reus for 115,000. Who has that kind of cash on day 1? He's also not worth that much, I think it's a hangover from last year when pace was so valuable.

I'll be on tonight, anyone else about? I don't know about others but when we play 4-2-3-1 without Barn it seems more difficult than the 4-3-1-2, think the width in the former lends itself to a lot of crossing which is less effective without the deformed monster up top.

What was the result of the microphone conversation? Will we be using them to tell each other how shit we are in real time? If so does anyone have any recommendations? Was considering getting the official one for ease of use.

How did the early release thing come about?

That sounds quite the dire warning, shame I'm to lazy to cancel my preorder. I'll be in until I throw it off the balcony.

Don't worry Mak, the pass would have been fine if my VP had lived up to his ball control stats, I'm all for a little more indirect passing to make use of our extra men in midfield. I would also second making your VP shorter/lighter to improve speed but more importantly stamina! It's hard work...

Credit where it's due, you were good last night, whether you care to admit it you played wider than the night before! To good effect as well, particularly playing wider in the oppositions half, you were a good out ball and got some important goals! I on the other hand had a bad night, finishing...

How is everyone else finding 3-1-4-2? I've been enjoying the central midfield role, particularly left, not sure why I get a little disorientated on the right side. I think it's been working well with Phatmann, Sweey and I in the middle, though Sweey if you want to go forward don't worry as one...

For those that played, what are the thoughts regarding the formation last night? I thought we played quite well, with some excellent moves at time, I think we need to ensure Barn is part of the front two/three, no-one else really has the aerial presence meaning or crossing is little threat.

Sounds like a bit of a mixed bag and more testing is needed. I should be on this evening, think we should decide the exact formation to suit the personnel at the time but 2 up top seems a good idea in general.

How fared the experiments?

I agree about the CPU midfielders which is why I was thinking the diamond would work well, the CDM would sit and the RCM, LCM would be the human players. Giving the likes of Mak license to get forward a bit more and perhaps help provide the width you rightly worry about.

I don't know about the rest of you but I thought we played much better last night in the 4-3-1-2 formation. I know Mak said he didn't particularly like it (might have something to do with trying to play it while inebriated) but either that or 4-1-2-1-2 (i.e. same form but with a CDM) seems far...

It will depend whether I bother buying a PS4 at launch, which at the moment doesn't look too likely as the launch titles don't seem to make it worthwhile. I can only imagine Fifa 14 will be even more bug ridden in the next gen version.

While mine were good, they were difficult to finish off as the goalkeeper was out early and I can hardly complain given how long it took for me to find a decent pass!

I would suggest it should be Iron!

Everyone played very well last night! The only downer for me was my lob on the half volley hitting the underside of the bar and coming out, I feared we were going to get screwed at that point. Surely Mr Teale deserves more from you than that Barn. You haven't even mentioned why he won't feature...

Trying to time tricks with the kind of lag you often get on clubs would be nigh on impossible. I feel my crossing has improved of late, still don't seem to have a left foot for crossing though. I thought we played some really good football at times last night but some bad luck/inconsistency cost...
