Then why doesn't he just play him so he can develop a bit, on games where he picks a weak squad?

That’s one of the problems with AI mgmt. I often see Foden rotting at Man City playing very few games (waste!)

Its one of the disadvantages of drafting young / high potential players in this draft - as you’re not controlling the teams they may not play + reach their potential.

It’s one of the few advantages of drafting older players (though that has different disadvantages)

Guess i should just hope for a miracle

You could loan him to me for season 2. I’ll be playing in Europe (hopefully) and with all the old players I’ve got, I get lots of injuries. Also I play with 3 CMs, so he’s likely get games. 

Herrera played 15 times (despite being injured a bit) and Lopez played 17 times (despite being rubbish), so I think Bellingham would get games.

Thoughts?

Ouch. Harsh, but fair.

[DanEnglish]

Loan agreed for the duration of season 2, with a release / recall clause (for any reason) available for @YungGaffer at both end-Dec and end-Jan in season 2.

@YungGaffer / Yung Kings are delighted for this promising star to have greater game time, while DanEnglish FC are delighted to have the extra squad depth given they play with a 3 man central midfield.

With both the player + DanEnglish FC having agreed to the loan, all that is needed is for @YungGaffer’s final confirmation.

[YungGaffer]

Yung Kings are happy to announce that Jude Bellingham will be joining DanEnglish FC on loan, thanks to @DanEnglish 's quick thinking and good eye for a deal.

Quick question before the season results reveal

What would cause the manager not to play someone (Eg, Bellingham has only played 3 games this season)

Bellingham is one of the players that I had to realease and re-sign in a previous update, cause your manager demoted him.

 

edit: I just checked and he played a total of 13 matches for you

Messi Rumours

After an amazing 1st season in the EPL, sources close to the world’s greatest player suggest he wants to move on.

“He doesn’t like being played as a Poscher.” states our source, “He’s so much more effective as a IF cutting in from wide, or as a AP / DLF dictating the play. Once he’s recovered from his injury in time for the start of next season, he is ready to move.” 

Some other teams are interested in either Messi or fellow team mate Aguero, with 3 teams having already enquired about their availability TODAY alone*

* Note - admittedly 1 of these 3 was me proactively asking one of you, but we’ll keep that quiet)

If you are going to sell Messi for £5m, I’m in the race.

Likewise. If you are going to sell Mbappe for £5m, I’m in the race also 😄

23 years old Mbappe for £5m and 34 years old Messi for £5m? Doesn’t seems worth it to me 🤔

Oh I didn’t say that was what they were worth. Just that if you were going to sell for 5m, then yes I’d buy 🙂

What must happen before the next season can start?

• @broodje kip may do 1 transfer with a team not owned by another player

1. Cash only deal
2. Player (75% value) + cash deal (player included must have the same (green) position as your target, so a CB for a CB)

 

• @DanEnglish may choose 1 free player to join him (this may not be the new player that broodje brings in)

 

• Update latest transfers

 

• After that a new draft round will come to choose sponsorships for Season 2

 

 

 

If you see a mistake or have a question, let me know 😉

Wow. And on goal difference. Wow.

[Kun Aguero]

At least I'm still above @broodje kip 😄

Edit : Just realised I had won the the FA Cup against @Rich, at least not a trophyless season then

[geordiekrispy]

How Rashford got top scorer but isn't in the team of the year I have no idea!

 

But the top of the table is enough to give you heart issues! I'd love to see the last day of the season games as they came in.

I think I need some more oomph in midfield, or someone who can create something out of nowhere. I drew too many games, and my GA is rubbish!

Same for Tadic 🤦‍♂️ while Kouyate and Alonso from Crystal Palace that concede 73 goals are in the TOTY

[Rich]

Lose the FA cup final and lose the league on goal difference, what a great end to the season for me 😂

Congrats @DanEnglish 😁

[Victor77]

Bottled it at end I would have been happy if we at least finished 6th

[Victor77]

Am happy to announce the signing of angel di Maria💛 to vice City ..... a deal that involves the swap deal of two players trippier and bale

Well done to @DanEnglish for winning the league

Out of interest - is the Player (75% value) based on current value (end of season 1) or original draft value (start of season 1)?
