In FM12, I brought in Xherdan Shaqiri to replace James Rodriguez who had terrible luck with injuries and it had taken its toll on his physical attributes.

But that Swiss tosser had me tearing my hair out almost every single game he played, considering I blew some $35m to sign him you'd think he could put a half-decent cross in. His shooting was well and truly scattergun and generally posed more threat to the people behind the goal posts than the goalkeeper. I put James Rodriguez back in the side by the end of the season.

Count me lucky stars I had Eden Hazard on the opposite flank basically winning games on his own.

Into the Hall Of Fame this. 85 seasons is just incredible, I struggle to play through 10% of that (I play all matches on Comprehensive/Full, probably doesnt help

Pratto is more useful as a Complete Forward tbh, Correa is more useful as the number 10/on the flanks due to his pace. Depends on what you need for the team.

Wham-bam-thank-you-mam and the Russian second division sorted out, good work at Volga with that terrible squad. Staying in Russia or heading back for unfinished business in Italy?

A few players earning far too much for being mediocre in that Volga squad (Khramov, Novikov, Salenko, Khalilov & Ricaud), hope you pack their arses off to Siberia and get some quality in. That Cypriot defender looks good though judging from the star ratings.

Surprised you haven't headed for South America, Dan. Good luck in Sweden though, if you land the Malmo job it should be smooth sailing to all the cups & top division.

Midfield looks decent, but your defence and strikeforce are non-existent.

And is that Thiago Casasola, the Argentine somewhat-wonderkid defender?

Is the Hero achievement obtained by doing it with a single team, or you can do it with multiple teams provided you go through every single division? I was always under impression that it was the latter. Any case, good luck at Coventry,.

Might as well take the Coventry job then, they are still in League 2 can allow you a chance to complete the Hero achievement for England.

After 2 consecutive promotions from non-League, League 2 was always going to be a bit of a challenge. But good to see your team not rolling over and making a good fist of it.

Sheppard + Connor, greatest striking combo in England

Seems like those 2 intend to get Woking out of non-league by any means possible.

I signed Bernard for something around 20 million Euros in my game. He always seems to do the business for me, but I have trouble finding a game for him with my stacked lineup. He's already scored four for me in a cup match! So far he's not been complaining about playing time, I hope that continues.

So yeah, hold on to Bernard for as long as you can. Try to get at least 40 million Euros for him from Moneybags West (Man City) or Moneybags Central (PSG)

AI-controlled Manchester United love buying Bernard too from my own experience in FM14, not entirely sure if they still have this tendency in FM15 but hey, more moneybags options isn't a bad thing?

Aren't Videoton the best team in Hungry these days? I definitely know of Honved but their glory days are as far back as the Puskas era and Debrecen did play in the CL in the last decade. But still, great start to the season.

Considering finding excellent coaches isn't all that hard, wouldn't setting this all the way to to Tactical Manager be more useful since it makes it easier to gain the respect of the players?

Maybe two saves, one a journeyman career save with the objective of completing all the Hero of (country) achievements. The other my yearly affair of world domination with Manchester United.
