Seems like many of you guys need a place to vent your frustrations and complain about the injustice your team has suffered
Thus I decided to make this thread. Just come in and pour your grievances about Dreamfooty, whether is it regarding injuries to your key players or underperforming stars in your team
I hope messi contracts mono and can't play for a year. Because it seems a lot of people did the ronaldo/messi double and I didn't so I need a leg up on them =P
When berbatov plays he's an elite scorer. He proved that the season he won the EPL golden boot playing mainly as a sub. I never understood why fergie was so down on such a gifted player. Plus for 7M I think the risk is pretty minimal
I would've found a way to find 1m extra and pay for Villa instead of Berba tbh. But if the latter adapts quickly to his new club, he could be a great buy for 7m. We all know what he's capable of
Well, I thought Brkić (Udinese) was going to be a decent choice and a steal for a 5m goalkeeper and what, he gets a red card, on top of that it's controversial, on top of that Udinese score a useless goal that wipes my chances of double clean sheet with Juve defenders. Like someone said about Szczęsny in the Euros: "Don't buy a goalkeeper whose name you can't pronounce"
Hithere I would've gone with lazio's manager if I were looking for a deal there. He was only 3M and playing europa. But yeah, another brkic owner crying in my beer here =(
If you have a player who's gonna' score 80 goals and get 30 assists in a season, you sure as hell should make him your star striker Nice attacking duo btw
Did anyone else pick Parma's Rosi in defence? Cost £4m, I was gonna' rage that he wasn't playing but then he came on with 10 minutes to go and scored. Parma kept a clean sheet in that match. 18 points for a £4m defender who played 10 minutes! Woooooo. Also falcao not playing is ridiculously annoying, especially in the form he's in
Atletico and chelsea played in the uefa super cup last weekend. I'm sure most of us that bought him knew that and were willing to accept the one game missed
I just bought him a while ago and wasn't checking the la liga fixtures very carefully. Anyway wasn't the super cup on a friday? They could have played on a sunday too if they really wanted to. @Rubin tbh I wasn't expecting him to play much, I normally sacrifice my defenders so that I have a strong attack
Ahh Rosi just got himself sent off.... I knew it wouldn't last. I didn't really think about a sub defender either as I was so tempted by attacking players.
Yeah, tough luck there. In that same game (I have Fiore's keeper Viviano) it looked like a guarantee Fiore would get all 3 points and a clean sheet, but f*****g Luca Toni, the giant who is only good at being big, had to ruin it by giving away a penalty
Haha, jeroen something bad happens evrytime I watch a match for DF lol. Instead of letting me enjoy the matches more (which it should) it gives me heart attacks
I can't stand that some people who made their DreamFooty team early on got deals like Carrera for 3m or Vidic for 7. 5m (I think). It makes me feel so angry lol. If I got Carrera for 3m, my team would've been so, so much stronger. I never played DF before, except for Euro's this year. I didn't know that at first, some players/managers are vastly underpriced, and I made my team relatively late. As a result, I missed out on some of those deals/glitches made by FT. If I knew, I would've logged on immediately after it opened and would've gotten those cheap deals. Arrrrgh, lol. The whole thing's pretty unfair to me.
Lol a few years back when this game started I went on the first day when there were tons of bugs. So I got Rio Ferdinand for 1m, before they corrected the glitch. I happily watched as he went on to be my highest earning defender
I am angry that Falcao had to go and score 2 hattricks before DF started. I would prefer it if he picked up his form in September after the window closed. Falcao was one of my first players picked.... You don't normally see a 20+ goal scorer in the past season going for less than 16. 5 million.
Now after he scored the two hattricks I bet the number of people who picked him skyrocketed.
Yeah I saw 24 goals last season, for 14M, I thought autobuy. Everybody else that +20 goals is around 20M or more. Except one guy but I'm keepin him in my back pocket for later
I bought Milito for £13m. I am confident he'll have a great season with loads of goals. My main disappointment so far is Naldo's' terrible performance against Hannover, which could force Magath to rely on Kjaer maybe next week, who knows...
Other than berba I had an underwhelming day as well. Barca coughs up the clean sheet AND pique gets a yellow, as does di maria thus erasing his pts for the day, and of course ronaldo got nothing. Ah well, at least I still have dempsey and falcao tomorrow
Iniesta, Xavi and fabregas are bad choices in my opinion as they don't get on the scoresheet or assist as often as you'd expect. The pluses are probably the more or less guaranteed clean sheet points and the appearance ponts but still not good enough for their worth
Terrible, schmerrible I say. All depends on the relativity of the bad performances of your players. Di Maria, Ronaldo, Iniesta, Götze, Hazard, .... None of them performed this week, none of my defenders got a clean sheet, but thanks to Viviano (Fiore's GK), Messi and the Juve coach (2 goals from 2 subs) I'll be fine and even rise a lot in the rankings again.
As long as you get more points from players few others have, you're doing fine
Top 200 and climbing right now. Can't complain given I had brkic, dempsey, hazard, hoogland of stuttgart, falcao, and berbatov who all didn't play (or play much) week 1. May have to jettison dempsey though, much as I love him. Doesn't look like he'll get the playing time at spurs that he did at fulham. Also messi needs to get a red card and miss a few please soccer gods
Am I glad I followed your initial advise and went for Viviano TBS Go Fiore! Even with no European games, their team has much improved, and because of their increased offensive prowess, they'll concede less goals too as they'll dominate more games.
Oh and by the way: Carrera just got 25 points by subbing on Mirko Vucinic and Asamoah who scored two goals and assisted another. Not bad for a 3m coach
Pity Iniesta, Isla and Sakai are injured, but Isla is returning soon (he was on Juve's bench already), and I'm almost 100% certain he'll feature in many, many Juve games to come soon enough. Hopefully he'll remain without injuries now
Sakai is injured? I tried to find some info on him but found squat. Glad to hear that he is injured than not seeing him on the bench because of other issues
I planned that if Udinese really plays good then I can sell De Gea in coming transfer window to avoid rising stock of Brikic.... Smh Last year my Keeper earned me 27 points for entire season (shalke keeper who got injured) --- well this time I am just being cautious.... Lol
My star players keep giving me the run around. They never perform well together in one single week! I have Lahm as my star defender and he hasn't got single cleansheet until today as bayern always concede that odd goal.
Sad to say, hazard was anon this week. Messi nearly scored so many times but still didn't score (damn the defender's own goal's assist should count!)
Instead 3m and 5m defenders are giving me some cleansheets in place of star defender. Just facepalm lol. Started DF week one in the 680+... Now still not break into 100th... Only at 142th
I just starting to feel like this:
@Jeroen this wenger gif for you, not angry one haha
Messi is the only star player I'm happy with right now. Ozil is not on form at the moment but I'm gonna' be patient and keep him. Jordi Alba is another one I'm gonna' be patient with too
Hithere, I think your mistake was actually spending a lot of money on Ronaldo, who hasnt performed up to his standard yet and you could've spent the money left over from a cheaper attacker on better defenders/midfielders or on subs. But perhaps Ronaldo will pick up his pace soon. Football is so unpredictable.
Haha, I have exactly the same problem! Kompany is my star defender: not a single clean sheet yet. Iniesta is my star midfielder, and he hasn't even gathered 10 points yet because he's been injured for a month now. Only Messi, good old Messi, is raking in the points.
Ronaldo will score a boatload of goals, no worries. Ozil is a real dilemma though. I'm itching to sell him, but then I might regret it.... Arghh.... Being a fantasy football manager is so hard. :/
Link: forzaitalianfootball.com/2012/09/roma-awarded-3-0-... What happens to dreamfooty then? I have balzaretti and a 3-0 win would get him some decent points (cleansheet and win). I doubt I'd get anything for it, I know I'm clutching at straws
