      This game is making me want to take a sharp blade to my wrists

      I quit.

      Driving me that crazy i googled to see if anyone else found it difficult and the nerve of some cu*ts to say it's "too easy"! With F***ing Newcastle! Gimme a break.

      Some say last year was hard. Last year was piss easy. This year is F***ing impossible.

      Regretting buying it I am like. It's sh*te, you can't even modify the tactics properly like all the rest. What ever they have done they have seriously fu**ed the game up.

      As for people saying it's easy, bet that's only because they have downloaded the editor and save it before every match!

      I think that training is significantly more important in this game, my form seemed to turn around when I decided to handle the training schedule and my players became more familiar with my tactics.

      I have variations but this is the main tactic I've been using:





      My team is doing well so far - conceding a lot & scoring even more - but I haven't had much time to play so it's still only October in my game.

      I can't stop conceding goals. Southampton put 5 past me at home.

      Was 1-1 in the 80th, 55% possession v Liverpool.

      Lost 5-1.

      3-1 after 89 minutes to Southampton.

      Drew 3-3.

      I just quit this game. I keep saying that but i mean it this time.

      Not worth getting then? Kind of bored of '13, but not sure I'd be any better off with '14.

      Comfortably in 3rd with 4 games to go. Needed 1 point to get CL football.

      Lost 6-1 away to West Brom, 4-1 to Chelsea (who won the league) 2-1 to City (finished 4th on goal difference) and 2-0 at home to Everton.

      At the end of my first season I sold Sturridge for £15m, Agger for £20m and Lucas for £35m. Only one who ever did anything for me out of those 3 was Lucas. Really not happy with how difficult it is for players to get decent match ratings on this years game and the opposition instructions thing is bollocks. It doesn't change the way my team plays at all.

      Won the league in my second season by a point. Went down to the last game, I went 1-0 down to West Ham but managed to win 2-1; needed United to drop points against QPR, they got RVP injured, Rooney sent off and they drew 0-0. Just managed to sign ter Stegen on a free which I'm delighted with considering I had a £20m bid rejected earlier in the season.

      Whenever I go 3-0 up, even against a lower league team it suddenly becomes like I am playing against Bayern Munich and Barcelona combined and get totally destroyed all over the pitch and end up 3-2, 3-3 or losing 4-3, even if it's near the end of the match when i get the 3rd

      FFS can't help myself but play.

      Just putting random players in random positions with random roles and seeing what happens.

      YOLO.

      Are you in it? :D


      Myself and a few of the lads know lads here that play for League of Ireland teams. One of them will always sign them lads for Barca etc to play them in Champions League games!

      Coutinho is unreal for me in the 2nd season, just played him in the hole the majority of the first season and his rating shot up. Then again, feeding Lewandoski isn't that hard ;)

      Injuries are killing me. I'm still doing well, apparently better than most on here (though still in the 1st half of my 1st season), but it seems I never have all my CMs available - at least one is injured, often 2 or 3. Always central midfielders. Grrrr

      Signed Lucas Moura for £29mill along with Lewandowski and Vitinho on free's. Trying to sign James Rodriguez now. Sold Sturridge for £19mill, he has been so under rated on the game!

      What a load of sh*t!! Loaned Sterling to Reading with the option of being able to recall him and Lucas Moura has got injured so want to get him back but I cant, the option to recall isn't even there!!

      I know pretty much all of the Barrow U18s lads. Quite depressing considering they're younger than me and I play against them (and beat them) on a regular basis at five-a-side. I should be on the game. :(
