Well it is a game first, simulation second.

In real life cartoon_soldier would probably have to take an assistant or coaching position first having flopped at his first managerial position, or perhaps a youth team role. Or maybe it would take months and months to find a new job. But FM can't have long periods where the player just does nothing, it would be boring.

So there'll be some positions open soon, and he'll get accepted even above other better candidates that might be available in the database.

Plz its so realistic people use it for betting.

What a tank

Such a good big game player as well. Didn't he have some mad Wembley scoring record

Yep. I know it's heresy to suggest it but of the "great" Premier League strikers, I prefer Drogba over Henry. He was so dynamic and entertaining to watch in his prime.

Fuck leeds

Hey GAF are there players on a rival teams you wish you didn't like but wanted them on your team.

My Top 3 are:

Lampard (Prime)
Ferdinand prime (Him and Sol would've been beasts)
More recently Bale (I only hated him because he played for Tottenham )

Had a soft spot for Hasslebank too

 

[Salvadora]

Wow, Viva was right about Wilfried.

 

[Clegg]

Maybe it was a clean slate but Zaha fucked it up already.

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Wow, Viva was right about Wilfried.

He's itk!

Holy fuck, crazy news in my hometown. Dude three houses away from ours killed his wife and stuffed her body in a storage locker, then tried to burn the house down.

My mom says he was a wreck, pretending his wife was missing and he didn't know where he was, she actually held his hand and tried to comfort him. My mom has seen some shit :lol my god

Freddy Perez Rodas, 27, was arrested Wednesday night and booked into the Southwest Detention Center on suspicion of murder, arson and child endangerment in connection with the death of 25-year-old Laura Perez, an Escondido police officer.

Murrieta police Lt. Tony Conrad alleged that Rodas shot his wife in the chest during a domestic dispute sometime Wednesday in their house at 24562 Grand Oaks Court.

She died at the scene, after which the suspect allegedly transported her body to a Moreno Valley storage locker. Rodas then allegedly returned to the house and set fire to it. Fire crews arrived around 6:30 p.m. and extinguished the flames a short time later, immediately identifying the cause of the blaze as arson, Conrad said.

He said Rodas, who called to report the fire, had also reported his wife missing.

"During questioning overnight, Rodas admitted killing his wife and burning the location in an attempt to cover up the crime," according to Conrad, who said Rodas took detectives to where he had dumped his wife's remains.

The couple's 4-year-old child was not harmed and is now in the care of extended family, the lieutenant said.

Oi

I slagged him off before too

gimme some kudos

Not for me, but I can see why. Both fantastic though but Henry takes the biscuit. That Arsenal team was really exciting to watch.

You just said he was a flash merchant

Viv was ahead of the pack on the attitude problems.

 

[Mr Cola]

Still remember the piece Holloway wrote on Zaha last year and how he does himself no favours, who the fuck is advising this kid?

Nobody obviously

And sucks that he is what the 4/5th United kid with a lot of promise and a crap attitude?

 

[GorillaJu]

I also called Zaha being shit, but to be fair I call every United player shit. And to be more fair that makes me correct 95% of the time.

[Vivalaraza]

Henry was alot more entertaining that Drogba IMO.

There is something fascinating about watching a brute force like Drogba just outpower teams though.

 

[Mr Cola]

Half the issue is we buy young prospects with potential but they havent shown it and they assume, because we bought them, they have made it, all they got was an opportunity and they dont realise that.

 

[GorillaJu]

Henry was alot more entertaining that Drogba IMO.

More skillful? Yes. More entertaining, though... I stand my ground. Drogba just embodies everything about the PL. Speed, power, aggression, excitement.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Zaha vs Ince :lol


Both shite.

 

[Salvadora]

Henry > Drogba any day of the week.

But there is something about a physical player absolutely dominating the pitch like we saw in prime Drogba.

 

[Slizz]

SAF panic bought Zaha.

LOL, you'd have to be pretty dense to not get the hint when a new manager who is deciding most people's futures tells you something like that.

Is it regular season? I think they fire you on table position based on expectations, not necessarily for one specific result. That's quite the achievement tho, LOL.

Drogba never did this.

 

[GorillaJu]

Big teams lose friendlies all the time, especially their first few of the season.

Managers send them out to get their fitness levels up and to test formations while opposition teams often see it as their opportunity to get one over on the big boys.

The only manager who treats friendlies like balls out cup finals is Van Gaal, and we all saw the result of that.

 

[sohois]

Zaha vs Ince :lol


Both shite.

Can you imagine:

what might have been

 

[Ultimatum]

Zaha was never going to be good anyway

so overrated

even with good work ethic he'd crap

Will the board fire me or not? Taking bets!

loooooooool

Drogba never did this.

ridiculous... I love drogba, he was so exciting to watch, but plays like this are just magical

 

[Broder Salsa]

Drogba back for a season as a player coach is fine. Will be a good last backup and Lukaku can keep breastfeeding off him.

Drogba never did this.

Van Nistelrooy did and a lot of people call him shit.

I came pretty close to paying a ridiculous price for a CL RvN kit a year or so ago.

gigi_salmon: Guess who's back.....DIDIER DROGBA returns to Chelsea FC on a 1 year deal #returnofalegend #cfc http://t.co/0JzOEzbVvg

#returnofalegend

Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce the return of Didier Drobga. The striker has signed a one-year contract.

Drogba of course needs no introduction.

When he came to the end of his previous contract in 2012 it was only weeks after he had stroked the ball from the penalty spot into the Bayern Munich net to place Chelsea on top of the European summit for the first time.

His earlier equalising header in that Champions League final was his 157th goal in 341 appearances, a total placing him fourth in the club's all-time highest-scorer list.

On signing his contract, Drogba said: &#8216;It was an easy decision - I couldn't turn down the opportunity to work with Jose again. Everyone knows the special relationship I have with this club and it has always felt like home to me.

&#8216;My desire to win is still the same and I look forward to the opportunity to help this team. I am excited for this next chapter of my career.&#8217;

Jose Mourinho said: &#8216;He&#8217;s coming because he&#8217;s one of the best strikers in Europe. I know his personality very well and I know if he comes back he&#8217;s not protected by history or what he&#8217;s done for this club previously. He is coming with the mentality to make more history.&#8217;

His 34 goals in European competition remains a Chelsea record, as do his nine strikes in nine cup finals.

During the Ivorian&#8217;s first eight years with the club, Drogba won three Premier League titles, four FA Cups, two League Cups as well as the Champions League triumph. He has been named Chelsea's Player of the Year and Players' Player of the Year and has won the Premier League Golden Boot twice.

Since leaving Chelsea in 2012 he has played for Shanghai Shenhua and Galatasaray, memorably making a return to Stamford Bridge last season when we beat the Turkish club in the Champions League Round of 16.

He has continued his international career and appeared in all three of Ivory Coast&#8217;s games at the World Cup, taking his caps total to 104 with 63 goals scored.

 

[Salvadora]

[GorillaJu]

Drogba never did this.

No he didn't really score goals like that. He'd more likely take one touch with his back to goal, then swing around and rocket it into the top corner from outside the box. Different types of strikers. Henry is the better player, but Drogba is my favorite Premier League player behind Steven Gerrard, personally.

 

[Blablurn]

i really hate schalkes mascot

 

[Mr Cola]

His goal rate is obscene

Hope Robin remains fit this year

Not worried.
