The greatest goalkeeper of this generation (since Kahn), founder of the greatest defense in PPFMC (Monsters)

 

[Ibad17]

@Freelance: 11 subs play for friendlies, so none of your players will be rested..

 

[Sixhitter]

^ I can see this so-called "all-time great" defense getting exposed soon


Hope that Kebab-Land wins.

 

[Bhaijaan]

But i dont really want them to be playing Ibad.

^ I can see this so-called "all-time great" defense getting exposed soon


Hope that Kebab-Land wins.

Many have dreamt my friend, many. Games are played on ground and not papers, the spirit of Monsters has always prevailed over CA/PA crap.

 

[Canistani Hero]

Rossi out for 5 months?

 

[Canistani Hero]

Thats what you get for not selling Rossi to me Cani

That would not be fair on you

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Rossi out for 5 months?

I think injuries are cleared before the season starts, well I hope so

 

[Bhaijaan]

^ Not according to Ibad. Injuries stay with you.

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Cani has been unlucky with injuries early on..

 

[Ibad17]

this season injuries will carry on. But one new addition this season is a in-game specialist with each team. More injured player may be sent to a specialist and he can recover quicker than expected.

[kingusama92]

For a second, Leatherface I thought you were playing Cavani as keeper.

 

[leatherface58]

For a second, Leatherface I thought you were playing Cavani as keeper.

I dont have that much knowledge about football. But the lack of knowledge is not this severe

[Geordie Ahmed]

is it me or do all the teams look alot more competitive and balanced this season?

It's not you

8 teams have been cut and their star players have been shared around thus creating stronger teams/squads

 

[Bhaijaan]

You know things have become competitive when Yoann Pirlo sits on bench.

 

[Space Cat]

right back the only position i dont have depth in.

So of course my right back gets hurt.

End of the road for Gigi at Monsters of course, a sad farewell. Neuer takes over from here. Goodbye Gigi, Thank you Gigi.

 

[Bhaijaan]

This is just too sad.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Neuer showing Buffon's gifted jersey, signifying the exchange of baton to Neuer from previous Numero Uno.

[cricketjoshila]

Dude! 4-0. You think I am India or what?

My players will answer on the field.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Post #52 last pic. I know its Europeans but still too close for comfort

Brotherly affection.

 

[Canistani Hero]

FC, you predicted a loss for me?

 

[Bhaijaan]

Gut feeling bro. Of course, all of them can go wrong.

 

[Space Cat]

Astropussy



Free Kicks & Corners: Xavi

Subs: All remaining available players.

 

[Bhaijaan]

This is a cup winning formation right there. What a team!

 

[Space Cat]

I was happy to find that De Jong can play right back.

 

[kingusama92]

That back 4 is legit, Space Cat.

Especially if De Jong can fire. Lahm-Silva-Hummels is plain nasty.

I thought I had it good with Marcelo-Pique-Rami-Maicon.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Funny thing is that none of you two teams have the greatest defense in PPFMC.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Funny thing is that none of you two teams have the greatest defense in PPFMC.

 

[kingusama92]

Funny thing is that none of you two teams have the greatest defense in PPFMC.

The new inclusions of Marcelo and Rami will put my team at the top.

 

[cricketjoshila]

Only one team.left.Which one?

 

[Space Cat]

Mogudishu is yet to be named i think.

 

[cricketjoshila]

GL has been very irregular this season.

 

[Sidcricfan]

Just 1 team left.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Today is the day. Dont keep us waiting Ibad.

 

[Sidcricfan]

I don't think there will be any strike as this is a friendly match.

 

[Ibad17]

just 10 mins left.

 

[Ibad17]

times up..

 

[Sidcricfan]

I am guessing Ibad is simming right now.
