    Timber by Ke$ha came on a playlist while I was driving and it made me sad all over again…

    It WAS going down.

      Convinced that he’s gonna be amazing for us. Definitely not just cuz I signed him on the same Arsenal save I signed Fabio Vieira in my first FM save…

          Federico Dimarco is the only one I find still interesting, cuz we need another defender; though IRL we obviously went and signed Zinchenko instead and changed up our tactic. I don’t think we’ll be signing Ruben Loftus-Cheek any time soon XD though I wouldn’t mind signing Youssoufa Moukoko (though hopefully less than the 92m I signed him for).

            Checking the save cuz it’s been a while, I signed Ruben Loftus-Cheek and then sold him on to Palace for profit, same for Kyle Walker-Peters, and Strahinja Pavlovic of Monaco (who now is at Salzburg irl), and Daniele Rugani of Juventus. (and Sekou Mara, whom I lost money on cuz no one would buy for me and he didn’t reach his potential)

            Then Andre Onana on a free, who iirc was unhappy with doing basically funnily what Raya is doing now (having two really good goalkeepers fight it out) and moved to Newcastle for 50m, Ilias Akhomach of Barcelona (who is now irl at Villarreal) who went to Bayern after two and a half seasons, Martin Satriano from Inter still at the club as of 2030 when I stopped playing the save (now irl on loan at Brest), Matteo Gabbia from Milan whom I sold to Barca after two seasons for profit (irl now also at Villarreal but on loan).

            Then DCL, who I sold at a 30m loss after a good 5 seasons, our boy Vieira, Federico Dimarco as I mentioned, who ended up being the most stupidly good deal ever as Juventus signed him on loan + obligation for like 120m as my backup LB behind KT, and Mohamed-Ali Cho from Angers whom I ended up selling to RM for profit and irl now plays at Sociedad

            After that is when regens started being meaningful but I did sign Tyler Adams & Weston McKennie (cuz the latter wanted a suitable signing to settle and I didn’t know how promises worked; ironically the former was more useful due to his versatility), Leonidas Stergiou who I sold for profit after being a squad player for a while, Jarrad Branthwaite who I don’t remember signing but apparently he went back on loan to Everton and then sold to Sevilla at a loss having never played for me, América’s Richard Sanchéz who I sold to Shakhtar at a profit

            and at last Moukoko, one of my last real signings (though I did trade Adams and money for Diogo Costa).

            I bet we don’t see like, anyone else from this list sign for us irl lol

    I wonder if West Ham could’ve gotten the best out of Maguire if that transfer had happened. Maybe he would have been happy in a stable and non toxic environment.

      He’s honestly not bad for country, he really does need a team that he fits in. Tbh, if Leicester comes back up, I could see him going back to them if not West Ham

      I saw someone say Tomi was all over Kai like a rash…and yes that’s basically it.

      But man Tomiyasu was a brick wall today and had a couple of good tackles. Probably the best I’ve seen from him in a while

    Forgive me but I’m so so happy for Tomiyasu, what a performance! Can we technically play him at CB?
