    Thanks to Shaun for running the sim this year, even though he rigged it so my team would be an embarrassment to the sport.

    It was a lot of fun. I enjoy running it. I'll do it next time unless DelapThrows wants it back.

    I don't trust the commitment level of any of the rest of you. You might H/T it.

    Ok so I just finished taking our drafted rosters and getting the rosters correct in FIFA 18.

    Since we draft on real life form and FIFA 17 doesn’t have that accounted for, I thought it’d be interesting to see if running it with updated ratings would have a different outcome.

    There were 6 drafted players that are no longer in the game because they retired or moved to a league not in the game.

    Here is the list and my suggestion on replacement (basically the best player at that position not already on a roster). If you think there’s someone better, let me know. I’ll be doing the tactics sometime tomorrow or this week and then run it (possibly all at once, possible in installments).

    Topper Bottoms - Lahm - RB - 5th - Mario Fernandes CSKA Moscow

    MA - Alves - GK - 10th - Roman Burki - Dortmund

    DelapThrows - Alonso - DM - 10th - Lars Bender - Leverkusen or Fernandinho - Manchester City

    Shaun - Modeste - ST - 12th - Mario Gomez - Wolfsburg

    Cotton500 - Lavezzi - LW - 16th - Diego Perotti - Roma

    Druce - Valdes - GK - 21st - Sergio Rico - Sevilla

    Going to leave as is and let cpu run the subs but game changer for the next draft we do. Where FIFA 18 will let you do those quick subs, you can just do that from the main game not within a game mode so if people want to set a specific quick sub up (or up to 3 of them) that is now an option so we don’t have those random as subs.

    Actually just went to do your lineup and saw it was 3-5-2 with Lahm at RDM so Bender might make more sense for you

    I might be in trouble, Costa is out for the rest of the sim. Leads me in goals and assists

    Wish they had an injury page so I could post a photo of all the injured guys too.

    Sadly Bremen despite getting so much better ratings wise hasn’t been dealing with any injuries. Just a good squad on paper that for some reason does not play well together

    Congrats nexus

    Matchday 37, level 1-1 in the 2nd half and knowing 3 points would all but clinch the title with a +14 GD over Barcelona the best footballer in the world, Lucaz Vázquez nets his league leading 17th of the season to clinch the title

    Strongly disagree with Player of the season and would award it to Vázquez with it being a tight race between he and Messi

    I found it interesting to see if things turned out any differently.

    Looking forward to the next draft later in the season.

    Last time it was a 3 team race between City, Barca and Real but this time it was a 4 team race with those 3 and Juve before a complete collapse by City getting only 2 points out of a possible 12 the final month (none of those against the top 3). 2 points total out of last 6 matches. Team fell apart once Costa got hurt.

    Bernardo got hurt so made most sense to flip Alexis to RAM and put Baldé Diao in at LAM and then your team took off

    What a comeback. Dortmund score 2 away goals and win 1st leg 2-0. Werder Bremen score twice for a 2-0 regulation score in leg 2 and after a scoreless ET win 4-3 on Penalties

    Pffft I thought Popovio was relegated since he finished bottom of the table before? I thought it was decided that his spot was given to Coachman since they're so similar?
