Some game today. Emre Can is just immense. Hercules. Ubermensch.

Man Coutinho has been so excellent since we switched to the new formation. I wonder when Balotelli is getting a chance to play up front with Studge again.

I think you mean "If". I'd say B-Rod has frozen him out and probably rightfully so.

Not really. I remember it having the most impactful knees and elbows I've ever seen in a martial arts movie, and some impressive displays of agility by the lead, but other than that it's a bit of a blur.

Took over Man City in an FM game after 3 years of coaching MK Dons. Meh, it's just too boring being a coach of a big team on here. The best part of FM is growing players.. am I really gonna bench Aguero and co? Meh. Reloading my save before I took the job.

Players were fat and lacking motivation, continue to play them instead of benching or shipping them off.

Moyesus.

At least Gaal has almost completed the clear out. Valencia and Young are next, followed by our group of misfit broken CBs unless they show a serious turn around from now til May.

Inky please watch that video and respond.

Yea, I did m44! That's what I remember, the way he just jumped into fools and elbowed everything. You actually see the hits make contact and push the guys back.

I was looking at another video and saw the street parts where he is kinda running between cars and through a market and does splits on tables and jumps back like nothing. Crazy shit.

Valencia and Young are his favourites. He'll sooner ship Rafa off than either of them. Jonesy is taking corners and free kicks and stuff. He's the true #prospect.

But what about Falcao? He's fat and lacking in motivation.

Just watched the Bolton/LFC highlights. Coutinho has become a proper #10. Scary.

I hope Izzy Brown or Ruben Loftus-Cheek are the next Sterling for us. Or we just buy Sterling. He's brilliant.

Im not sure I would be willing to sanction another £50m+ Liverpools way after Torres :p

Dortmund won't go down. But Klopp surely will leave at the end of the season, I think Tuchel will take over (kind of ironic in some strange way I guess).

It'll be weird to see Dortmund out of CL, tho. I hope Schalke stay out of CL too.

Bayern, Gladbach, Wolfsburg and Leverkusen in CL

Augsburg, Hoffenheim (lol) and whoever in EL.

edit: damn it, Bremen are back on track
