Asunto: Premiership

I was good for my wins! had a 10 men and won v reserves, since i sold my keeper I got beaten up, but I am actually looking forward to training more English and selling the older players again :)
like I said before 5th should never be a playoff certainly not from the Premiership , better having 12 teams then bottom 4... 5th relegated :( last season 6th was an improvement.

Jundullah yes, but the others not so much.

Your defending is always ropey, always has been. You shouldn't be shipping 7-8 goals on a consistent basis as you did in the middle of the season with the ratings your side was pulling in. I think you may now hold the dubious record in terms of ratings, the highest rated side to ever relegate, in an era that there is not even close to the depth of quality in England that there used to be.

(editado)

I think that selling my keeper should not have such a huge affect as it did, this new slower unearthly keeper never made a single save literally for games on end!!! what a joke!!!

Dlreserves was a well deserved double victory thanks, 1st time I played Jundallah he hadn't logged in for a while and fielded his reserve team.

and defending was since i:
a. Got an injury to keeper v you tragic keeper
b. Sold keeper
c. new keeper was terrible so sold and got another
d. other keeper wasn't that much better, lack of tacticial discipline? gwad knows
e. Sold best defender
f. I train players miles more than results always handicapping myself with U23 players
g. I am training mostly U23's, your buying the best players to win matches like ermejo and sponge, I'd be embarrassed if I wasn't thrashing me!
h. If i think you will beat me anyway I throw the game away and loose by 6 and train more, I have always done this

Playing the game the way i have has made my 22/23yo's some of the best in sokker they are in the best 20 in sokker mids lists for there age groups :)
I don't think i'd enjoy this game nearly as much if i played it like you sponge ermego and in the past evertonians.

If I played the game like you then your opinions would be valid, maybe when I come up again I will play to win every game, I suppose you could say my team is a feeder to bigger clubs and always has been.

I will be back with a stronger side you can count on that.
I honestly believe if i had not of sold my keeper and got 1 more older defender in [was trying] then i wouldn't have gone down, yes I am the biggest team on average points to go down, but 5th should not have a playoff or chance of going down 5th is a great position.

Sokker really needs to put more teams in the premiership and then have bottom 4 playoffs/relegation

A good stat for you for when I beat you 8-2.

Southend youth players playing in match: 2
Mcoi youth players playing in match: 4

Just remember aswell, it was not just that game in isolation, you conceded 7-8 more than once this season and conceded the most goals out of all teams.

Keeper is never a player to rely on, it's always the last roll of the dice. A GK will never win you a game unless you have them set as a penalty taker.

What SK is now is all it will ever be, development stopped some time ago so don't count on expanded divisions.

Out of interest, how many NT players have you produced? Not counting U21 because you can just call up your own anyway.

8-2 cos you played v tragic keeper
The point at which i sold my players was the point at which i started leaking heavily remember i had 3 injured [2 defenders and a keeper]

No excuses my keeper was rubbish and my defense were in useless form and injuries, never got replacements. I wanted to train the ones I had but form was killing me. but i have been playing a incredible defender in cb at times and magical other 2 are unearthly so no divine defenders so really killing myself, i didn't need to do that but spent my money on younger players instead, I would have changed that for next season.

The keeper made a stupid difference :( like ridiculous difference , say what you like i watched all the games

I have only had 2 main [would have been 3] national team players, Petherbridge will be in main team soon so will Reakes they are proper beast's & why I messed up a lesser 5th [wasn't from my school] would be NT player

I hardly had any through my junior team...last 1 is nearly 23yo, i have had to buy so i can train some English, now I am down in div 2 i can have some more coming through.

Younger English players were not good enough in comparison to the ones I got
I am considering having all English that would hinder my team, severely so if they were solely from my school.
You are making me want to come back and try and beat you, hmmm
I am gutted I was relegated played it so fine and somehow came 5th then that game v padstow was strange, we agreed i could have won it yet i lost 3-0

*Oh and if they are U21 players they are all my players ;)

*I will bringing youngsters on in div 2 though, I do enjoy that part of the game, so it's not all bad although i was gutted I got relegated in a match I should have won even in that my main striker was on a red card.

I look at stats of you qualification match and I can't believe what I see... I have seen some enginge jokes, but that was usually 1 goal for the opponent who didn't have any chance. Here you had every stat in your favour. Shots, %, everything. But the score is a biiiig surprise.. :(

Yes and in the match my team played great, Padstow saved loads he got a penalty with a not much of a shout for 1, i could off had 3 pens, I was saying this is a joke when I was watching it

I honestly think you are making way too much of your goalkeeper situation this season.

The reason I say that is that if you compare our keeper ratings from Week to Week, you have a higher keeper rating 11 of the 14 weeks of the season. Just some food for thought ;-)

And to expel another myth, the 2 keepers I used all season were only aged 20 and 22 so you're not the only one who trains youngsters in the top division ;-)

Lol trains 1 player

yes but you needed to see the games new keeper saved nothing in top form, last keeper saved loads in no form, tactical discipline and pace only real difference , ok I am totally cack then ;0

Keeper is never a player to rely on, it's always the last roll of the dice. A GK will never win you a game unless you have them set as a penalty taker.

Unless his name is Courtois!

To Lipa91 I say the only stat that matters in sokker is goals. You want stats play hattrick. The stats can be made to lie here easily.

To Mr G I say let Bryan be. He plays his way and you play your way. You have been more successful but so what? He is doing what he wants.

My team had to play that way and it was a success (for once) Robson has players way up the pitch and my old timers cannot run or last so had to camp back and hit on the break. Keepers are important I train at least two (sometimes 3!!!), he was in divine form as was the young main striker.

Remember its only a game and everyone can thrash me next year as I am still rebuilding.

ha, it did when watching the game, you'd of blamed the keeper every time is all I am saying

I had some top chances that just had to go in.... your keeper saved everything & mine saved nothing
Lot's of if's and buts, but if ;) I hadn't sold my keeper or got another top 1 & got another top defender and my main striker wasn't on a red, playing with a div 2 type defense didn't help me.

I suppose you could say I thought it was an easier game and chanced it, although I did think he's dangerous, been in the game longer than me, I did respect you Truff, but thought surely he can't beat me I just beat dlreserves was 2-0 up & down to 10 men he scored then just drew with herbs 2-2 and herbs scored in the 90th minute! so I calculated I could not be defeated as you play virtually same tactic as me, missing my main striker didn't help that's another reason , still thought I'd win and it was a shock 3-0 massive shock game engine or not

It's not the end of the world, you'll walk promotion back to the PL anyway.

Also played a striker with mid orders cos I thought I could get away with the training
Should have trained pace then wouldn't have needed too, but our own Reakes was/is injured and needs pace so that decided it and Tech it was as Reakes has most of that
