Good start against Bayern; let's see what happens in Germany.
The premiership continues with serene progress to the title, it seems.
I may have rested one of my preferred central defenders, Leon King or Toti Gomes (don't remember which of them), but the backup, academy graduate Arthur Brown, plays just as frequently as the other two, so I don't think I can use it as an explanation. It was just one of those games, I think. Or else it was a mental thing with me having my mind set on Bayern already.
2-1 against Bayern must be the highlight in European games thusfar in 4 (??) seasons (lost count)
- thurlow8852 years agoSeasoned AceI missed the part where you had Rutter in your team. He has been phenomenal for us this season, i get it's The Championship, but he's enjoying himself on the field which sparks good form and if we get promoted I think he'll show his class in Prem this time around. I also know Rutter is good to use from playing Seasons this year and a special card he has in FUT. I've already hit my Leeds United players quota for my career I think so maybe a future one 🤣

Yes, certainly a highlight there. I had some good runs in the Europa League, beating Spurs and Benfica on aggregate to get into consecutive semi finals. So I would probably still rate these games as THE highlights so far, but obviously this one will beat it, if it's won on aggregate.

You usually provide this kind of feedback, when I have someone from Leeds signed in my careers.
Good to know he's doing better now. IRL, where does he currently play? Centrally or wide? He played on the right wing, the last time I saw him, and I'm playing him as a secondary striker (a LF in my formation).

This is one area where Daniel Farke is frustrating me and some others, without diving too far off target he's been playing as a No9 and then Piroe as a No10 a guy who scored 20 odd goals in Championship last season. Rutter is not a No9 however since he's been letting Bamford play or when Bamford comes on Rutter drops back to No10. We would have all liked to have been Rutter at No10 and Piroe at No9 especially while Bamford was injured/not favoured

Makes sense. I suppose I wasn't wrong about him then. I did sign him to replace a departing number 9, but I've only played him rarely in that position. He's been so much better from the LF position, when it's not him playing with his back against the goal. Great signing for me, and despite him being a record signing for the club, I do expect a record sale too, when the time comes, and a nice profit.
