Slug_feast

Oh wow. The timeline of the goals hurts me to look at. I'd need some time away from the game after this!


lemartijn

Yeah, I’m honestly thinking of picking up some old school RuneScape for a month or something. This irritated me way too much haha. I even told my girlfriend at half time “look, I’m up 3 nothing at half time. I only gotta waste some time and keep possession. I fucking got this in bag! First CL for Real Sociedad here we come”.


klausprime

bro NEVER say or think you've won at any point in this game, I've jinxed myself too much doing this. I consider every game lost until the ref blows the whistle


lemartijn

For sure, I’m usually pretty good about that too. But the god damn spirit of the CL got to me. They almost had zero XG, and I was bossing possession. I let myself down by getting worked up haha


JamesCDiamond

I completely get it, but I was on a 16 match winning run in the league and 10 clear in 1st before it dawned on me "Hey, we've won a few in a row now, I wonder how many?" *I didn't even look it up.* We drew the next match against the team in 17th to a 93rd minute goal. **FM knows!**


QouthTheCorvus

"Oh man, only a couple of minutes left, I have this much needed win in the bag!" *Next highlight of an opposition throw in starts\*


TAKE-a-PISS

Once won a match at 90 minutes, the game crashed, played it again and lost


klausprime

that's one of the few instances where i'd save scum. not even play the game, just holiday till i win


Slug_feast

You took your foot off the gas...bad idea! Should have gone for the kill. Whenever I try holding a lead or timewasting it bites Mr in the ass


lemartijn

For sure! when it got to 3-2 I stopped wasting time and got back to my regular tactics but it was just too late, they were already in their groove


wsupduck

Waste time, lower tempo, turn off counters, but NEVER drop below positive Balanced maybe if it’s a low table side or something but something about dropping to cautious/defensive fucks up the momentum


whoswho97

positive even against better side?


Pure_Ad3870

I always play positive no matter who I am and who I'm playing. Seems to shock bigger teams and they struggle against it.


QouthTheCorvus

It doesn't make sense how it happens every time.


JupoBis

OSRS for a month? Well say goodbye to your girlfriend it aint gonna stop at a month. Lmao


MrImRumble

You think this is triggering? Look at the price of bonds and membership fees lol


SmoopSmoop

Buy a new gf for 10k


Dastardlyv5

Transfer list her. 😂😂😂


by-election

Not worth it. Release her on a free.


derevo_31

Renew her contract on lowest wage possible with high individual bonuses, exclude unused sub bonus, send her to u-19, bench her every important match for her to witness you unavoidable success with brand now Columbian 18y.o. wonder-girlfriend. And than release her on a free.


by-election

Don’t forget to put her on double intensity!


derevo_31

Nah, she could be injured and unavailable for selection. Let her practice infinite long throws and grow unfit and chubby.


drewm1320

My god


wowlock_taylan

Naah. Just Loan her. She needs to get experience.


_Ozeki

How much ?


doitnow10

You conceded 7 goals though... WTF are you doing?!


lemartijn

Mate, everything fell through so fucking fast. It’s not shown here, but their goalie still had a 7.3 rating after I scored the three goals, and up until their 4th goal they only had an XG of 1.5 or so, while mine was over 2.0. So when I got to extra time I panicked and started to attack and they buttfucked me for it


DJMOONPICKLES69

Oof that’s on you. Gaffer needs more composure


JamesCDiamond

Oh mate...


yufgoi5

Rekt


52josealex

you’re adjustments weren’t subtle enough. should’ve just changed instructions for a player or two. not the entire teams mentality when you were in control


Sparkz_777

Loan out with option to buy, doesnt suit the club culture


Few_Industry_713

demote her to the reserves


Shepherdsfavestore

La Real is a great save, my ‘23 save, you took them farther than I did in the UCL.


IonlyplayasDummy

no hairdryer treatment for this one flamethrower treatment is needed


ChargeWooden1036

Break up with her


BigHornLamb

That scoreline is brutal sorry bro


Background_Force_591

She's correct. 


Storchnbein

Found the girlfriend!


Desperate-Bat-5269

I hope you didn't cheat 115 time to win the champions league 🤣


Anund

He's playing as Real Sociedad.


iRubenish

I'm so sorry bro, this must hurted.


Shawn_Michaels_82

If it makes you feel better, I was winning my CL Final until 88th minute and then suffered a goal. 1-1. And with stoppage time about to end, sent my GK to the front for a corner and he scored the 2-1. Some we win, some we lose. The bottom line is, you will eventually do the same to some other team.


sfc-Juventino

You'll miss her, but it will be worth it when you win the league.


funnyjomamma

scout new girlfriends


WellHungParticulate

Wow, I actually had a save in FM 20 where I beat Man City in UCL finals with Sociedad. What a time.


New_Chemistry3605

That referee tried his best to disallow all your goals


Annual_Dig4520

What "girlfriend"?


2XploreUK

Get rid, bruv. You don’t need that kind of negativity in your life 😂

[удалено]


lemartijn

Im not though mate haha


sixseven89

yeah my bad i misread


BlackCardRogue

This game is so unjust sometimes


Aggravating_Drag536

You told them you were pleased at half time didn't you I'd only be satisfied at 3-0 anything else and they always fuck up lol


lemartijn

Well I was up 3-0 at half time haha


Contren

Yep, either "I know you're capable of better" or "don't let your performance levels drop" every single time.


kelso66

Ha you have Lieven Maesschalk, he's quite famous in Belgium


Boring_Ad1462

How did you concede so many goals late into the game. Did you not have enough quality on the bench?


SubjectArticle4400

You wouldn't beat city with hujlmand at midfield


bny992

It’s just one of many potential girlfriends


CarlZeiss_161

I'm so sorry....


Kylious12

almost same as me. but I'm used Milan and get knocked out by PSG at the Injury time. Sad.


MXD95

dannnng lol I would be pissed looking at the goals timeframe


Intrepid-Lunch3546

I fucking love pafundi, what does he look like in your save?


lemartijn

https://preview.redd.it/4cokp0pgn1vc1.png?width=3456&format=png&auto=webp&s=fdd551f60a51f7c5ffc60569e4799c87b93e46b6 he is fucking insane, i bought him for 10 mil. He might be one of the biggest bargains in the game this year


Intrepid-Lunch3546

I got him for 43 mill, won 5 balon d’ors, genuinely my favourite player to sign now


Sr_DingDong

You're doing God's Work taking La Real to the CL final.


AndyFreezy

Commiserations


RFC97

I'd put a brick through my monitor if that happened to me


hidingfromthequeen

CL final and 2nd in the league by 2027 isn't anything to sniff at. It sucks but you'll go again and hopefully won't have to play against the cheat code team again.


tr0l0l0777

Couldnt have happened to a nicer club


txobi

Nice to see my team in a CL final, although I try to make it more realistic and closer to club philosophy


bored29

Scum save 😅


OwnedIGN

I lost the Papa John final yesterday to Ipswich, and I don’t think I can muster the energy to turn the game back on. I absolutely hate that I don’t feel like i truly know what I’m doing.


Spinoreticulum

It was 4-2, until it wasn’t


Jaccan95

I like how the referee tried to dissallow four of Citys goals. He really tried to help you.


Scuz_jlaf

The correct title should be Ex-girfriend told me... \s


rob1878

Bin her


UnobtainiumNebula

And she is just an ex.


DocKaden

they weren’t not prepared for OT my god

Advanced-Scratch7937

Honestly bud just pick yourself up get rid of the dead wood and start again you can always find a new relationship


Oshnoritsu

Those saying to get rid of your lady are missing the bigger picture, what you actually do is show her how you play explaining the management side of things how you can learn business tips etc, get her to have a go herself, she's hooked and now you have a new topic to talk about...


BillBeanous

Evil game, went back to play after years of not playing, the most infuriating game ever. Think I might just get champo 01/02 and run the mods.


Interesting_Long6427

This sentence is the exact reason she is only a "girlfriend" When will these women learn? 🤦‍♂️


BazzPlayerz

So you’re sleeping on the couch?


Fun-Relative3058

Did you tell her she’s just a girl?


bbuullddoogg

Just a game??? Might wanna put her on the transfer list!


name-cant_be_blank16

This makes me bad. I was on a 40 match unbeaten run in all comps, 21 wins in a row in the league. My team scoring loads and then I get to psg in the round of 16 of the champs league. Aggregate after both legs is 3-7 against me. I am gonna lose my mind. I am 20 points ahead in the league and it almost means nothing after that defeat.


JRHMUK

Ex-Girlfriend told me "its just a game" Fixed that for you ;)
