    Can someone give me some advice for Football Manager? There's a defender who is apparently valued at 1.5m which Newcastle are willing to sell me for 500k, and his value is way more than anyone else in my squad (playing as Forest Green), but his tackling skill is about the same as my current defender in his position, but he has better other stats, but since he's worth so much, in theory he should be a much better player than my other player (who's worth about 2k), despite having the same tackling? I guess having consistently decent stats is better than having one or two good stats and not so good other stats? I just wanted to ask before I blow a large chunk of my budget on one player.

    ALSO, quick shout to Dean Stoneman for finishing 6th on his GP3 Series debut. He was due to move up to the Formula Renault 3.5 Series (pretty much the level below F1) in 2011, when he was diagnosed with testicular cancer at the age of just 20. Now 23, today marked his first single seater race since then, and he's done absolutely no wrong whatsoever :)

    Tackling isn't everything for a defender. Marking, heading, anticipation, positioning, strength and jumping are all important.

    League 2 with Forest Green Rovers. It's on my phone so I'm not sure if it's possible to take a photo, though I may try taking a photo of it on my phone with an actual camera. Though I believe their heading and tackling is about the same. I've got a budget of £1m, so far I've bought a central midfielder for about £140k and a right winger for £17k.

    Should be able to take a screenshot on your phone...check the Googles for your OS, I know that you can with Android and iOS (and god help you if you have Windows phone, not because it cannot, but because Windows phone).

    Saw a Steinberg comment on Reddit today. Upvoted it, obviously.

    Oh, and[SUB][/SUB] also, if anyone cares, GMI/Barry is getting slaughtered on SaintsWeb.

    See "Norwich going for it" thread, page four.

    May be wrong, but I swear Barry's age when on here said he was 43? It says he's 38 on his saintsweb profile! <laugh>

    On the basis that you often come up with reasonably interesting stuff, I fell for it. I swear that is probably the last time I'll ever visit the Saints Web.

    BTW, make your last posts here, or hold your fire. A new Beefy is coming up, if the forum server can operate correctly for 5 minutes. :)
