  1. No-one will be particularly prolific. You'll draw 0-0 a lot but get a few 2-0/1-0. Most goals from open play will come from the striker though, who'll make late runs into the box, closely followed by the wingers and BBM. You won't concede often, I can promise that. Tnh, If you get a good set piece taker and good headers of the ball, that'll help heaps.

  2. Yes, I've had huge success with a counter attacking 4141. Its my go to tactic when results aren't going my way. Relies on an energetic striker, masses of pace on the wing and a good mover of the ball in centre mid. Its incredibly simple: GK-d FB-s CD-d CD-d FB-s A-d W-s BBM-s CM-s W-s DF - s/d Counter mentality and balanced philosophy. Literally no instructions, although I instruct full backs to sit wider and my forward to hold the ball up. You'll have all 11 players in defense, letting your opponent have possession and trying to play between the lines. Its incredibly difficult for them to do so. You'll often see one of your back 5 make an interception or tackle and pass the ball to the CM-s, who will wait for the wings and centre midfield partner to get forward a bit. He then has 4 options in front of him, or can play it back to either full back who are usually in space. You have Shelvey? He'll probably be good at this if you train him to not play 'Hollywood' passes. It kept me up in my first Premier League season with Blackburn and then let me build a solid premier league stint before I left. As I got better players, I gradually became more expansive until I was ready to set out and control possession. This works with fairly ordinary players, in my experience. You do need pace on the wings though (I'm talking >16). Pace in BBM can't hurt either.

  4. I felt a bit of a Gaslight Anthem vibe from it, saying that, I've only ever listened to '59 sound. But I'm enjoying it too. They actually seem to be evolving slightly. They're not trying to write songs that sound like when they first started, like a certain other band who have recently released a new album that's full of stuff that 40 odd year olds shouldn't be singing about and swimming pools to see dicks.

  5. Even worse if the clickbait article has been split across more than one page and you have to click over to page two to find out what the youngest kid from Malcolm in the Middle looks like as an adult. And close to the "next page" button, there's always a crude banner ad that has an arrow on it, trying to fool you into thinking it is the next page button, but it isn't. It's an ad, and if you click it by mistake, now you've got 70 pop ups about viagra, a case of harddrive AIDS, Bearshare has been hard installed into your OS and your search engine has been altered to BestWebSearch.biz and you have to rake around your browser settings to get rid of it, but it keeps coming back, so you throw your computer off a bridge and go live in the woods. I didn't even like Malcolm in the Middle.
