In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Was meaning to set subs but forgot so now Aurier is injured and my team is knackered so I expect RS to win on Thursday.
If you can be bothered, check out my game and the ratings. Also the stats!
Holy shit. I'd call match fixing due to their goalie being on loan from you but he somehow got a rating of 9 despite conceding 5 goalsIf you can be bothered, check out my game and the ratings. Also the stats!

1 shot, 0 on target, 25% possession
I even had a man sent off! Poor Coventry.

Coventry have been left unmanaged and players are knackered you flat-track bully

I have about 10 players from Ligue 1, thanks to RS who has smuggled all great talents from Serie A, Bundesliga and La Liga
Ah well, at least I've got the great English talents who have played lots this season like Chambers and Musonda
Looks like Bundesliga is next
Edit: is Serie A

How do ACL injured players usually play afterwards.
In SM? Probably no difference
Real life, wondering should i hold on to a talented kid or not.

Reminds me of certain talented kid I have with similar injury
In general:
Division 1 Clubs
Advantages:
Division 2 Clubs and Lower
Advantages:
So, by implementing higher economy, we will solve Division 1 clubs' issue for not able to maintain high wages bill. At the same time, the above issues faced by lower division clubs will not go away
Division 1 Clubs
Advantages:
- Higher squad value
- Stadium expansion
- Higher chance of winning (exponential to team's ratings)
- Higher wages
Division 2 Clubs and Lower
Advantages:
- Lower wages (although some Division 2 clubs are carrying high wages too)
- Lower squad value
- No stadium expansion
- Lower chance of winning (exponential to team's ratings)
- Player's valuation based on tier-system means less money to make from trading risers
So, by implementing higher economy, we will solve Division 1 clubs' issue for not able to maintain high wages bill. At the same time, the above issues faced by lower division clubs will not go away
So, what can lower division clubs do if higher economy is implemented?
Buy higher rated players (even if they are over 30 years old), at the expense of higher wages, hoping to buy their way out to winning, and promote to Div 1 as soon as possible

Clubs from Division 3 and below are not so bad now, unless managers go into hyper-mode spending
Think clubs from Division 2 are being impacted the most

Aurier increases. Thought it'd go either way after he didn't play much of late.
Verratti's now 93 rated so likely to be higher rated than Pogba for the foreseeable future.

England will be a boring review for me as none of my players will rise
I actually thought umtiti would rise today
Yago Pikachu + 1 today
Rule #1: Soccerwiki are useless douchebags.I actually thought umtiti would rise today
All my plans relied on Fabinho getting to 89 (which he deserved) instead Silva got it. The rating system is a complete joke. I hate this fecking game so much now.

Same here. I was hoping umtiti would rise to 89 and cover for Sandro. Hasn't risen for 2 years now during which he has become the mainstay of the OL team. Incredibly shit. Fabinho is the same, should have gotten his 89 ages back. All it will take is for them to transfer to a more well known club and wankers will give them a 90 straight up like they do with players. Remember vidal getting a +2 just for his transfer to barca being announced.Rule #1: Soccerwiki are useless douchebags.

Verratti isn't even the player getting all the plaudits for PSG this season, that would be Matuidi and yet he gets the fecking rise. It's all just the flashy Fifa names that gets the rating increases over and over again. This is why having people vote on who to rise is retarded and broken.
This is a post I made about Soccerwiki using Fabinho as an example. I'm sure their are loads more of examples tbh. But this was the first one I came across.
So Ligue 1 Finished and here's the top risers. Only 6 players have risen past 88. Aurier, Trapp, Lopes and Bats are fair rises. Silva and Verratti are shambles. They did at least give lots of rating deductions which is something they haven't done much before. Another poor Ligue 1 update in general though.

Good point well made. It's a moronic system.
Looks like they're doing the same with Italy.
If you look at the defenders that have been rated in Ligue 1 this review. 86+
You get 16 results and 10 of those results have been -1 ratings. So they're actually reducing the already small defender pool.
So here's Verratti and Matuidis stats for PSG, red figures are with Internationals added. Anyone care to explain how Verratti got a + 1 to 93 over Matuidi?

Newcastle on spending spree
@Damien better start accepting new Newcastle manager any time soon. AI is bidding for 21 players!
ugh
@Mr Anderson would you mind taking over them until after Thursday's fixtures?
