Dad, Husband, Geek, Mostly Acceptable Human Being. Work in TV. Will gladly bore you with the details if you really want. Once got a ‘like’ from Mark Hamill.
Has everyone, including Tuchel forgotten that Mainoo is in the squad? All this shuffling of Bellingham and James to fill Rice’s spot and Mainoo is RIGHT THERE! #noreng
@nocontextfm1 Yes, when you have time to be patient, but now i'm (annoyingly) a grown up with responsibilities that mean my time playing FM is limited, it's a No.
@DoctorBenjy Have you considered going back to FM24 with custom/updated db to do something? I'm sure your audience would be there for it.
I never got FM26 - laptop wouldn't run it and the reaction to the game put me off investing in order to play it. Still really enjoying FM24 even now.
@theoldzealand Kane tried too hard to make sure he went down. The way he locked his feet together and launched himself was totally unnecessary and made it look like a dive. If he kept running naturally he’d have been brought down and the ref would have given it I’m sure.
@Footballtweet Let’s all call out the only midfielder making an effort to run back, organise the retreating defenders (one of which had no man to deal with) and made a sliding attempt to affect the play while everyone else watched. 🙄
@FPLfrasier Defenders should just not try to mark/jostle with the attackers around the keeper, and if the keeper gets blocked/knocked by an opponent going for the ball then it rightly gets called a foul/obstruction. But we can't trust the refs to be strong enough to do that.
@WeAreTheOverlap I love the guy, but Keane is clearly bitter at his own lack of opportunities in recent years, maybe justifiably. But what were Keane's coaching credentials when he was given his first coaching job at Sunderland by his former Irish teammate Niall Quinn? Hypocrisy for clicks.
@DoctorBenjy I've played every one since CM2 but FM26 would meana new laptop and i can't afford that especially considering the verdict on the game. International football or not I think i'm sitting this year out.
When you say "or bust" - do you think/mean no more FM if things don't pick up?
Lee Dixon saying Rashford went too early to be offside rather than Rice holding onto the ball for too many touches and killing Rashford’s opportunity. Clown. #ENGAND
Remember the "Wally with a Brolly" photo that did for Steve McClaren as England manager? Well, I give you: "Fraud with a Tactics Board". #Amorim#ManUtd#GRIMUN
Arsenal still playing NFL at set pieces. It’s not in the rules to have all player running interference with no intent to play the ball, only obstruct the goalkeeper. It’s just not football. #MUNARS
@WorkTheSpace My concern is the leap in graphics quality is going to mean the game is gonna cost me about £800 to play as it'll have to mean a new laptop.
@DoctorBenjy Probably my team Man Utd to begin with to get to grips with it in easier/familiar surroundings then maybe Atletic Club de Portugal because I love their kit. Or holiday in 1 season and see if there's an interesting job to take with a fallen giant or someone on the rise.
While everyone else is getting excited about the improved in-game graphics i'm worrying about whether you will be able to set the quality LOW enough for my laptop to run it :( #FM26
