Anyone else feel like when you play in the Journey that the other players on your team are way too passive. My wingers play like Claude Makelele and I feel like I have to do everything myself (I understand they want you to be the star but still, a little help guys).

Entirely agree. But it's always like that for me. My wingers don't really run unless I make them. My fullbacks on the other hand run forever. I have Gaya and Rangel (playing as Swansea now in my first season) they run so much more than Routledge or Montero.

Finally got it.... played 4 games. Struggling to score with River plate. I create enough chances but can't finish. Missed 3 penalties in one game but ironically that was the game I finally scored and won.:laugh:

Also from the looks of it some players on sofifa are not actually in the game...bummer.

Everyone on FUT just rushes you with 2 or more players anytime you try to build up an attack. Total BS. Sit back deep and put 2-3 fast fwds like musa and vardy

Bradley not the Swansea manager in The Journey :rolleyes:

Decided to go with Liverpool and Kloppo instead. Like what I see so far.

That guy who insults you in the beginning :laugh:

Yeah, you can't request funds anymore which sucks, especially when you have a poor SA team.

What I really like about this game is the player development. The training sessions actually work.

Shame. I always start out in career with an English league two team and try to take them to the Premier League. Budgets for those teams are ridiculously low.

I did one with Cambridge last year, and got up to the championship in 3 seasons. My goal for be season was automatic promotion for some reason and I had a budget of 750,000. Just ridiculous

Did anyone else get sent on loan from their Premier league team in "The Journey". And yes, Gareth is a *****.

As far as I know that's the defined way the story happens, I'm not even sure it's possible to avoid going out on loan.

Thought so, I was wondering if people who were straight A's throughout training would stay with Liverpool/ Man United / Arsenal, etc. I ended up going with Burnley and I didn't get much time but I didn't really deserve it.

Playing career mode with a league two team and they want me to make a profit of $11,000,000. I have a starting transfer amount of less than $2 mil, I need to buy a scout and send them out as they want me to find and grow a youth player, none of my players have even $1 mil value so can't get there in transfers, even winning the FA cup won't give me enough money. I haven't been fired for this but my reply is hurt and they annoy me with not only track emails, how do you pull this off?

WOW that is a low budget.

I won the EPL (more a super league) with River plate 3 years into my career. I had a 15 million dollar budget to start.

I know. When I started out on League 2 I had around 600,000 or so, which I expected. I got promoted the next year and went up to like 700,000 which was a little frustrating but kept going. Once I got to the Championship with that 750,000 budget thought, I was done haha

When you return from loan and Gareth curses you out. **** you dude. And then he joins the rival lol. Yes it's scripted drama but I was yelling at my lungs for Gareth to come at me bro.
