    I see I’m not the only one using City tactics.

    Was expecting to possibly see Napoli as well from someone

    16/22 have posted in here. Waiting on the other 6 to finish so we can have a sim.

    Ideally today, tomorrow won’t be the end of the world but I’d prefer if I wasn’t having to do all 6 tomorrow.

    They should all just get Tony Pulis tactics as punishment.

    Oh I wasn’t counting you because you had a lineup. 15/22 and need 7. I’ve at least got your lineup and set piece takers so you’re like 2/3 done

    That’s the “narrow” (LAM/RAM instead of LM/RM) right? Or LM/RM?

    That name is narrow vs wide but they’re both still wide. The only difference is if the LM/RM are further back or pushed up more as LAM/RAM/wingers

    Owsley this is basically the setup of the “narrow” and in the “wide” it would look more like

    ------------------Suarez------------------

    ———---------Malcom------------——-

    Nani———————————Robben

    -------Gundogan-----Iniesta----------

    Rose ------Chiellini----Hummels----Ivanovic

    -------------------Oblak----------------------------

    SugarShaun will you check to see if Kane is my penalty taker, and put him there if not? Koke took the last one. Many thanks.

    I wasn't sure if we were supposed to wait to switch out, or if it was ok to do so after a dip in form. That's why i was asking. No big deal if i cant do that.

    This is my first year so I don’t know the rules. It just seems like an odd way to draft if you can instantly change out your lineup.

    I know my lineup would be better if could sub out one of my other league player.

    You guys remember a few years back when I picked Harry Kane when he was doing great IRL and his fifa rating sucked, so halfway through the season I tried to sub Falcao for him b/c of his 89 overall rating, and was shit on by the group. Good times.

    I don’t remember where I posted it but my request/rule was if you wanted changes before match day 10-11 (25% of season) that you make changes that stick with the draft rules of 2/2/2/2/2/wildcard.

    Fine making any switches now provided the rest of the lineup is adjusted to match the 2/2/2/2/2/wildcard format
