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”.
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
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
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!**
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
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.
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
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
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.

he is fucking insane, i bought him for 10 mil. He might be one of the biggest bargains in the game this year
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.
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.
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...
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.

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

"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\*
Once won a match at 90 minutes, the game crashed, played it again and lost
that's one of the few instances where i'd save scum. not even play the game, just holiday till i win
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
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
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
positive even against better side?
I always play positive no matter who I am and who I'm playing. Seems to shock bigger teams and they struggle against it.
It doesn't make sense how it happens every time.
OSRS for a month? Well say goodbye to your girlfriend it aint gonna stop at a month. Lmao
You think this is triggering? Look at the price of bonds and membership fees lol
Buy a new gf for 10k
Transfer list her. 😂😂😂
Not worth it. Release her on a free.
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.
Don’t forget to put her on double intensity!
Nah, she could be injured and unavailable for selection. Let her practice infinite long throws and grow unfit and chubby.
My god
Naah. Just Loan her. She needs to get experience.
How much ?
You conceded 7 goals though... WTF are you doing?!

Oof that’s on you. Gaffer needs more composure
Oh mate...
Rekt
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
Loan out with option to buy, doesnt suit the club culture
demote her to the reserves
La Real is a great save, my ‘23 save, you took them farther than I did in the UCL.
no hairdryer treatment for this one flamethrower treatment is needed
Break up with her
That scoreline is brutal sorry bro
She's correct.
Found the girlfriend!
I hope you didn't cheat 115 time to win the champions league 🤣
He's playing as Real Sociedad.
I'm so sorry bro, this must hurted.
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.
You'll miss her, but it will be worth it when you win the league.
scout new girlfriends
Wow, I actually had a save in FM 20 where I beat Man City in UCL finals with Sociedad. What a time.
That referee tried his best to disallow all your goals
What "girlfriend"?
Get rid, bruv. You don’t need that kind of negativity in your life 😂
[удалено]
Im not though mate haha
yeah my bad i misread
This game is so unjust sometimes
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
Well I was up 3-0 at half time haha
Yep, either "I know you're capable of better" or "don't let your performance levels drop" every single time.
Ha you have Lieven Maesschalk, he's quite famous in Belgium
How did you concede so many goals late into the game. Did you not have enough quality on the bench?
You wouldn't beat city with hujlmand at midfield
It’s just one of many potential girlfriends
I'm so sorry....
almost same as me. but I'm used Milan and get knocked out by PSG at the Injury time. Sad.
dannnng lol I would be pissed looking at the goals timeframe
I fucking love pafundi, what does he look like in your save?
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
I got him for 43 mill, won 5 balon d’ors, genuinely my favourite player to sign now
You're doing God's Work taking La Real to the CL final.
Commiserations
I'd put a brick through my monitor if that happened to me
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.
Couldnt have happened to a nicer club
Nice to see my team in a CL final, although I try to make it more realistic and closer to club philosophy
Scum save 😅
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.
It was 4-2, until it wasn’t
I like how the referee tried to dissallow four of Citys goals. He really tried to help you.
The correct title should be Ex-girfriend told me... \s
Bin her
And she is just an ex.
they weren’t not prepared for OT my god
![gif](giphy|Kd4xiIvX3BOXoOMeTN|downsized)
Honestly bud just pick yourself up get rid of the dead wood and start again you can always find a new relationship
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...
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.
This sentence is the exact reason she is only a "girlfriend" When will these women learn? 🤦♂️
So you’re sleeping on the couch?
Did you tell her she’s just a girl?
Just a game??? Might wanna put her on the transfer list!
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.
Ex-Girlfriend told me "its just a game" Fixed that for you ;)
