I used to play about a year ago but it was a bit bug riddled for my liking. Has it improved? I might have another go if it has

ok dinga in that case you are head coach, we will offer adivce as would assistance typcially offer. I would say have a look through the list and see what sort of squad you have ie forwards, defenders. Players do have a prefered position so have a look .

Yeah, I'm happy with my draw against your team - it was my first game as well!!

My saints had more of the ball but we couldn't kick the goals. I was expecting a thumping.
