@green_smiley I had just finished my Premier League post based on what you said... and it turns out the La Liga review has actually started instead. Took me ages to make that post as I've got 14 players :( Will save it for another time.

Surely Vinicius gets a small rise.
Nah. Barely played all season. This is his minutes since his last rise:
  • 976 minutes Brazil Serie A (4 goals, 3 assists)
  • 359 minutes Libertadores (2 goals)
  • 168 minutes Copa del Rey (1 goal, 3 assists)
  • 118 minutes Champions League (1 assist)
  • 57 minutes La Liga (1 assist)
And they'll ignore everything but the 57 minutes in La Liga which isn't enough to get him a rise.

He will be on par with Rodrygo.

Yeah but still working out the logistics. @RedSky really wants a trial of the form.

@The Stain will be pissed about no rise for Romagnoli but should be happy about him finally having a fullback above 90.
Serie A review in general was a joke. Romagnoli is 2 ratings below Skriniar and Manolas? Feck off. If i still had Suso i'd be raging.

One good thing is they give Icardi a rise which he deserved a season ago.

Alright turds.

I've setup a form with the following options:

Manager Name
Password
Skip (if yes the form closes and you dont get the player selection)

Next section has 5 dropdowns with every player Stoke has listed, you select the ones you want in order.
If you want to select more than 5 names there's a textbox at the bottom, so simply list them out i.e. 6. De Gea 7. Rooney 8. Giggs

I can also set a deadline so the form automatically closes after any time period we wish.

4:2 away win against an extremely strong Nottingham Forest signed (boosted by Pjanic rising to an almighty 94 today). Griezmann scored all four goals - three of them from direct freekicks.

De Gea (95)

Kimmich (92) Ramos (95) Boateng (93) Alaba (93)
Goretzka (91) Eriksen (93)
Martial (90) Kroos (95) Isco (93)➕
Griezmann (95)⚽⚽⚽⚽⭐

Subs: Roberto (91), Christensen (90), Stones (90), Dele (92), Sterling (92), Brandt (90), Mbappe (93)
Injured: Pogba (93)
Suspended: Gaya (90)
Did not travel: Shaw (88) - if anyone wants to loan Shaw for the remaining games, feel free.

Key:
⚽ = Goal
➕ = Assist
⭐ = MOTM
= Subbed off
= Subbed on


Next three games:
MD31: Manchester City (H)
CCR2L1: Real Betis (H)
MD32: Darlington (A)

I'll be sending everyone their password on SM as a PM. I'll throw in basic instructions as well (the form is super, super easy).

The link will probably be active later tonight and i'll post that in here. A little bite more tricky sending it to people who aren't on the Caf as links don't work in SM. But i'll figure out a way :p

Does this mean us with higher squad value finally get our hands on some remaining talents?:p

When will the stoke draft be?
Can we do it after Xmas? Not sure what everyone's schedule is like but me personally don't really have any time to go over the roster.
