  1. It will. Not that it matters anyway since FIFA execs are the only ones who get a say. Smaller nations will be delighted at the chance to qualify, clubs won't care that much as they the tournament won't last longer or take more games to complete. Mourinho is already on board. I basically dislike this because I dislike fifa and I like the world cup fine as it is, but honestly, it's not that bad an idea, fewer dead rubber group games, knockout will be no different. I'm more bothered about the likes of Russia and Qatar hosting than I am about the idea of the format switch.
  2. estimated $512 million more revenue for fifa. compelling.
  3. Indeed, no offence meant, I just prefer not to take a single source.
  4. So, that got buried pretty quickly, anyone else have a decent answer for this?
  5. Genuine question, what problem does an upper earnings cap solve?
  6. It's not too big a shame, while it is beautiful and a great guitar I almost never find myself picking it up over my Tele or my Carvin
  7. Don't think he's ever set the world alight no, I've tried for him early in the game once or twice but always found him overvalued
  8. Given how easy it is to get him ranting about things I imagine anyone smart enough with plenty of access to him will find him quite easy to manipulate.
  9. Less than 2 weeks until he becomes president and this is what is occupying his time. His layer of tan is thicker than the skin its sat on.
  10. Andrew

    Gigs 2025

    Periphery in May is all I have planned so far.
  11. Fuchs was less than 2 million, Berge was 5ish I think.
  12. Berge does have higher potential, didn't get close to it in my last save though. Fuchs is 23/24 in my current save now and worth nearly 30 million
  13. 'Tar for sale. I know I'm the only lefty here but if you know anyone who might fancy it please share. https://www.facebook.com/groups/418321094942305/permalink/1193585354082538/?sale_post_id=1193585354082538
  14. I'm a fan of this show in general (even own a t-shirt) this is a good good episode though, very handy for me.
  15. Mikel is heading out there now, looking forwards to a "new challenge" apparently.
  16. Transfer window for 20/21 done and I'm feeling good about this season. Lost no major players and was able to add some class/depth to some other areas for a big campaign. I bought most of my players from Barca oddly Rulli/Costil Fuchs/Yedlin (this has been the same since season 17/18, no need to change either of them) Semedo/San Jose Koulibaly/Manolas(a steal from Barca at 9 million) Lazaar/Alonso (the one at chelsea irl) Sarr has been loaned out to get some football as he wasn't developing well enough behind my immovable first choice defensive pairing. Samper/Shelvey Tielemans/Berge Sturaro/Cataldi(another barca cast off, 10 million, bargain) Anita left for Ajax for 7 million, at 31 and not as good as any of my other midfielders its no loss. Sturaro got a big injury just at the end of last season and isn't fit yet, time will tell if he's dropped behind Cataldi in the starting 11 stakes as a result. Berardi/Odegaard(less than 3 million, hes been constantly loaned out, delighted to have got him, I've tried to sign him every season since the first) Pereira/Felipe Anderson(the last of my barca signings at 17 million hes the most expensive but is a certain star, absoultely brilliant player) Barbosa/Dolberg Odegaard as a backup/rotation option for Berardi is fantastic, especially as Berardi is my preferred backup striker as well, most of my front 6 can play in 2 of the 3 positions and can all interchange pretty much at will with no loss of quality.
  17. Odegaard if you can get him, since Madrid are trying to get coric stick him in on the swap
  18. I don't, I rule with an iron fist. I nab them with contract extensions when I need them around october/march when we're far enough from a transfer window that no major interest is happening and they've got over their sullks from the previous windows. I'f they get particularly whiny I ensure I do not sell them to their preferred destination, like Mbemba, who wanted to go to barcelona, so I sold him to wolfsburg.
