Duh!

:p

Yeah, good idea Inter. Next match might be crucial: I'm playing the number 2 at home. I've set the agression level to 70%, let's see if that works out.

You know, promotion would be nice, but I'd like it far better if I just won those matches that you know you should win easily... but then lose or draw v.s. teams from the bottom of the league. That's just annoying!
 
It does happen in real life though... Although I suppose you mean that the frequency on footiemanager is too high...
 
Do you know what Cambuur means here in Venezuela? (Actually is only with one ''u'') Banana! :banana:
 
Funny.

What's that dancing banana smiley? :banana: ?

Cambuur is actually the name of a district in the city I was born and raised in. It's just a name, in english it'd be Camborough. Cam is afaik short for one of the noble families in that area, Cammingha. But hey, I like banana better.

We used to call them "zakkenvullers". Not very flattering, it means that they don't deserve the money they earn.

Oh, and they suck nowadays. They finished 17th this season. That is awful. Unfortunately, they cannot be relegated, what they deserve. Zakkenvullers. The last time I've been there they were still playing in the premier league.
 
Crap. I lost 1 to 2. And my players missed a lot of chances, really a lot. I don't get that many shots at goal usually...
 
Hmm thats odd I thought I didn't pick a team yet I didn't get the message saying that the assistant manager picked the team... So perhaps I did pick a team and just forgot that I had... :blush:
 
Heh.

BTW, some useful information about training:

Passing training: trains passing and marking.
Short plays: trains reflexes and tackling.
Long plays: trains heading and speed.
Shooting training: trains shooting and handling.

So, what to make of this? If you look at the main stats of your players, you'd notice that the average rating of the different types of players is made out of three different stats. So if you want to improve the average rating, you'd have to train one of these stats. When you look again at the above list, you can see that these training forms are best suited for:

Passing training: midfielders
Short plays: forwards, defenders and goalkeepers
Long plays: forwards, defenders and midfielders
Shooting training: attackers and goalkeepers

Heading is good for scoring as well (duh). If the game makes any sense, heading for defenders would be especially good is the opponent plays with cross balls (a tactic that I'm about 100% sure of doesn't do a thing), and speed should be good for any player. Especially midfielders need a high speed rating. Long plays might be the best overall training form.

General training doesn't do very much either, but I've found that it's good to switch between training forms now and then. So if you're training forwards, train long plays for some weeks, then a week of general training, and then some weeks of shooting. That single week of general training allows for a lot of upgrades in stats that aren't trainend.
For instance, this week I changed from passing to general. One of my midfielders got a shooting upgrade. Unfortunately, it could have been that he'd have gotten a passing upgrade if I hadn't changed training. I doubt that though. I see it happen pretty often that upgrades are received when the training form has changed, so I'm pretty sure of this.

Any thoughts?
