Iniesta leaving Barca - he can finally show up for me!

This link isn't working for me, can anyone else see it?

Think Twitch is down atm as keeps saying network error for me.

Working now

He's only 270k on transfermarkt if anyone wants him.

Who

The guy who scored the wonder goal in the video, Riley Mcgree.

I see it now, originally was an empty dialogue box

Better than Giroud's scorpion kick?

Nah hit and hope

Well either way I prefer this one to both of them

Morning all

Morning from Mexico. 4am here

Why the feck are you on here then! Get to sleep and then enjoy yourself!

Morning.

Are you on holiday?

Body clock hasn't adjusted Hero I plan to enjoy myself with booze and sunbathing. But will be on this too......well in between reading the Zlatan autobiography

Yep Afro, officially it's my honeymoon from when I got married last year.

Ha, have a good holiday bud!

Have a good time.

Where in Mexico are you? I am looking at booking 2 weeks in August there so I'll be interested to hear what you make of it.

I went out here 2 years ago and got engaged. Staying at same hotel....Riu Palace Peninsula. Well worth it mate, it's a lovely place and everyone's friendly.

Cheers. Its also cheaper to go there than to stay in Europe. The only downside is the 10 hours on a flight with my kids!

Let me know when you're going, I'll be sure to avoid ...

I've updated the tables in the Google Doc so the team / player of the week will populate once the weekly data is filled in, have chucked in my team to test it

Please can everyone fill in their own games

Fully charged tablets with videos on. They have films on the plane too for kids. I was told the best idea is try and get a early morning flight and they will be asleep for half of those 10 hours

mornin all

shame to lose Cutrone but a nice addition in Vardy

Short term loss for long term gain for me. Opposite to you. I think it's what we both needed as now I can raise some cash tomorrow hopefully

yea I think so, Cutrone will get a nice boost on FIFA but thats about 4 months or 2 seasons away yet

which leads me on to.....lets say we're midway through a season and FIFA 19 comes out, do we migrate mid-season or finish the active season on FIFA 18?

Anyone want Javi Martinez or Fekir?

Hmmm. As much as I hate to say it I would suggest when comes out we do a reset.

I think we would get another season after this one. Then we would have sorted out any problems or issues with fifa tactics.

Then when it comes out we can start with a TM limit again (or maybe a FIFA level limit). I think it would be brilliant to build up teams from those small beginnings. We could cycle it around fifa releases then.

Surely we would finish the season on the current game before thinking about moving to FIFA 19

I would also say we don't need to do a reset, the whole point of moving to FIFA was to build towards a longer term league.

Anyone like me buying old players (Naldo, Ribery) will just have to lump it

I only say reset because I quite like the idea of starting with lower players and building up. With the cap being lifted the stars of all come in.

I don't mind really. I'm of the championship manager generation so that kind of thing appeals!

Today is the start of my 12 days off work
