I've started the new season as a regular season.

We will have a Champions League season next time round, which features a group stage and two-legged knock-out ties.

To but a new defender, or not to buy a new defender? That is the question..

[CHOULO19 24,332]

@, I was wondering if one manager can manage two teams. There is a vacancy in League two and I wouldn't mind taking over. If the two teams ever reach the same league, I'll give one of them up. What do you say?

[BlueLion. 21,491]

You'd have to have two separate accounts though, which Xpert 11 don't allow. If you get caught you'd face expulsion from the game...

Okay, never mind then. Thanks.

Damn, I lost. I need to buy a striker. I only have 2 and ended up playing both, 1 got injured and the assistant replaced him with a defender :S not even a midfielder. Is there a way to not let this happen? Surely the game should sub on a midfielder instead of a defender if my striker gets injured.

Your defender probably has the "all around" trait which means that he will be affected less by playing out of position. When a player is injured, the game brings on the player that will have the best skill when played in that position.

On a different note, I won?! Was not expecting that, tbh.

Holy Shit I forgot all about this. Was fun until the youth academy kept churning out a load of shyte. That really got up my nose considering the money I invested into it.

Big upset of you winning Super Villains, well done. Hopefully there is someone who can trump Villains and Xrated this year around - why not you?

Rule number one: DON'T put any money in the youth academy. You can get much better youngsters from the ones that are recommended to you in the market.

Thanks, but I really doubt it. I probably have the worst squad in the PL in terms of skill levels.

PS: @Bir_CFC, are you by any chance psychic?! How did you manage to guess that I would be playing 4-5-1? I hadn't played that formation since the previous season!

[DDA 9,690]

Ok so I just checked my team, must have stayed in the same division as last year narrowly missing out on promotion but off to a perfect start with 3 wins on the trot. Promotion to the Championship is inevitable. Time to make a few signings.

Yeah that makes sense, I'm just trying to find an excuse for loosing at home.

Well I saw that you had played either a 4-4-2 or a 3-5-2, but I didn't think you'd gamble on a 3-5-2 with only 3 defenders since I had played 4-4-2 this season and also thought you'd want at least 5 in the mid to overpower my 4, so 4-5-1 was the only option.

And of course, based on that I played a 3-5-2 to match your 1 forward, dominate your 5 in the mid with mine and then still have 2 forwards attacking. Lack of striker depth cost me, and of course you got your defensive tactics spot on as well.

Sigh i'm done with this since last season i've been forgetting to go in and change my team. I'm just not into it like i was earlier on, sorry.

Should i just leave the team unattended or what?

X-rated played me off the park while playing at my home ground. Good job, mate! Sinised JK 0 - 3 X-Rated

Stay until the end of this season then Alex can give your team someone else.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Indeed. Or if they get promoted and Fake Madrid get relegated, I can have it
