that liverpool challenge is insanely tough. what happens if gerrard or carra gets injured?
carra's still playing for me at 36, safe as fuck It is mental. I managed to win the Super Cup and got through to the knockout stages of the Champions League - beat Juve 6-0, the cheating Italian scum. Then it all went Pete Tong in the Carling Cup 4th round, playing Everton three days after thumping them in the league, and lost 2-1. The main problem is the lack of strength in depth in midfield, and the lack of real quality wingers with good crossing stats. The key is to get two good wingers in right at the start - ideally Downing and Lennon if you can get them, but its bloody tough. Boro want 15M for Downing and you only get a 12M budget. In my game, Gerrard got injured for 6 weeks, but I reckon you'll probably play enough games to get to the magic number. Else just provide evidence of his injuries. I'm only at the start of December, and I reckon every member of the first team sqaud has been out with at least one injury. At one point, I had enough injured players to field a crocked 11 team! Its a good test of how good you are, and no-one has done it yet! |

I have Robbie Fowler for Swindon in the championship(my second season). He's alright, but his pace is 2.

I just signed Jamie Cureton for my Elgin (Scottish team for you uneducated folk) team!
Fuck knows why I decided to go with Elgin, perhaps I fancied starting with just about the shittest Scottish football team there is!!

Hence the "just about the shittiest Scottish football tem" Elgin are pretty shit as well to be fair. They basically can't sign anyone!! Oh, and Cureton is now sitting in my stiffs as he doesn't make my first team!!  |

anyone notice on fm2006 that if you play 2 up front the one one the right hand side bangs in the goals, where as the one on the left doesnt score as many!!
Gary Hooper played upfront with Marlon King for my Watford team for a whole season....Hooper scored 25 in about 35....King scored 15 in about 35ish....
Then start of the next season King has scored 10 in 6....and Hooper 2 in 4....
why the change in form....because they had switched sides.....
anyone else!!!

definitely noticed that myself. are you using your own tactic?
i have my left-hand striker slightly withdrawn from the right-hand striker, who is usually my poacher. cisse has scored shitloads there for me.
that said, my other striker often chips in with just as many goals sometimes.

If you play a right footed striker on the left side of the centre he'll get less goals than on the right.
