I'm 9 years into a save in Romania and managed to win a few trophies so thought I'd have a look at the hall of fames to see where I measured up and discovered that the Hall of Fame is full of online players, this never used to be the case did it? I thought it was just me competing against real managers records and managers created in my world in the save file. I started a new save and the same was also the case including trophies won in years I've not even reached yet, this can't be right can it?

Isn't the news about EPL license the Q2 announcement?

I'm not fussed about what new features or match engine or anything like that currently, I just wanna know what the game spec will be now they're moving to Unity and they've said that there will be an increase in specs to accommodate required.

Just heard a fact on a podcast that we have the most players (7) playing in a second tier league (English Championship) out of all the squads at the tournament. Speaks volumes and I'm not saying that in a way to big up the English Championship .

While I agree we had nothing moving in front him I actually thought McGregor was quite negative with his play. You could see him instructing others to pass backwards and towards the end when we did start trying to do something he was telling lads to calm it down. I think he's been a great player for years and he was the one who set up our goal last game but he hasn't impressed me this tournament, not that anyone did but I was looking to the likes of him and Robertson to be the on the pitch leaders marshalling the side through games.

I think Clarke should be given the up coming Nations League run see how he sets up and performs against sides that are bigger than us, maybe an arguement to say Poland maybe on our level but probs a cut above. Utterly pointless campaign though as I don't think Group A sides are playing for a playoff, playing to win the tournament aren't they?

The beeb taking the absolute p*ss with that montage of Patrick Schick’s goal against us last time out at Euro 21

Great shout tbf. Fantastic calibre but, is his style of football really gunna be any different to Clarke's? Wasn't that the reason a lot of West Ham fans wanted him out even though he gave them a trophy for the first time in decades?

Sadly I agree with this statement. For me it would depend on the manner of the performances in the next 2 games. Back to back qualification for the Euros is no small feat for us after years out in the cold. And let's not forget we were one of the first sides to book our ticket but aye, on the flip side we've been poor since. Also, who would we get if Stevie went?

I dinnae ken wit aspect you’re referring to but going 5-4-0 after half time and the sending off and then bringing on a striker last 10 mins…wit was the point of that? Pure mental. Honestly, folks in here have been overly critical of Clarke at times in my opinion (no saying you @gothenburg83 even though I’ve quoted you) but that was a pure baffling decision. The start we had to qualifying and the fact he’s taken us to consecutive finals is brilliant but if we get pumped the next two games I’m honestly gunna start thinking “Clarke out”.

We’re f*cking dreadful. And aye we’re playing the tournament 5th faves with 10 men but we’re pure pish. 5-4-0? It’s like the Harry Potter days.

I mean I don't know the numbers but I don't think half of the championship would be in that narrow window, it will be far more varied in my opinion. If, from what you are saying, you are looking for ready made players then have your 3 star CA but increase the PA to 4.5. You're still going to get the 3 star players you want but doesn't restrict the search so much. To have only a half a star wiggle room in your search is so specific. That means anyone above that 3.5 star is omitted, why would you do that?

So your focus is 3 star CA with 3.5 PA? That is very specific player you are looking for.

They do drop off in time due to new reports generating.

I have each scout scout 3 countries with my preferred focus (15-23, 2 star CA, 4 star PA, ongoing, transfers, current tactic used) while having no other leagues loaded other than the country I'm in but I do set my database up like @SecondYellowCard suggests so I have all the newgens come through and my scouts are returning a good amount of prospects. In 4 years they've returned 592 options.
