Fastest CDM in the world

In other news, Fleck, Lundstram and Duffy are all rated higher than Coutts.
 
FIFA 18 surely?

Interesting to compare the Blades players' ratings in the most recent download with the original, out of the box ratings - several players have had their ratings substantially increased.

I'm feeling slightly grubby, having just sold Leon.

I spoke to a 12 year old family freind over Christmas- lovely lad, Blades season ticket holder. Whilst talking about David Brooks, he told me he needed a good run as “Cam”. “Whats cam?” I asked. “C.A.M.” he said, looking at me like a fusty old buffoon. “Central Attacking Midfielder??? God- dont you play FIFA?”.

A kid I used to teach asked me who I supported once, when I told him I was a blade he said 'No, who's your BPL team?' A common FIFA abbreviation - he actually couldn't believe that I supported a team that wasn't in the premier league.

The use of the abbreviation BPL deserved a lifetime of detentions.

The sad thing is, its only going to get worse. As football becomes a “TV Show” rather than a sport, you see young kids wandering around Sheffield in Man City, Arsenal, etc shirts. Go to Meadowhall and you cant find Blades or pig shirts in the sports shops, but Liverpool, Man U, even crap like West Ham are on sale.

Saying that, you cant find pig shirts in their own shop most of the year!

In all fairness that’s been the case for twenty years apart from the brief period where streetwise sports in town used to have United shirts. Sheffield to me seems like the last bastion of proper football fans. At schools and soccer camps the majority of shirts are blades or Wendy which Jake Wright testified to in an interview just before bouncing day. In all honesty I would consider myself more of a failure as a father if my offspring grew up to be a Man City “fan” who goes once every two years more so than if I raised a piglet who at least goes to Sty every week. It won’t be a problem cos “it’s in yer blood” but I genuinely hate the thought of buying arsenal shirt at Christmas for lad.

My lad is regarded as the school eccentric for his passionate commitment to t' Blades: everyone else is as Chelsea, Arsenal or Man U 'fan'.

It's unfortunate.

However, he will have the bonus of actually GOING to watch HIS team live.

I lose patience and confidence in someone’s football knowledge when I hear any of the following:

EPL
Don’t you support a big team as well?
He has that X-factor
I don’t really support anyone
Referring to us as Sheffield
False 9
Any formation that can’t be presented in 3 numbers

It’s not like the good old days. And I’m only 33.

Lets not forget the old favourite PK. Then there is cross ball and offence that the Yanks have kindly given us
 
Living in Australia I find it strange to see adults and kids wearing “EPL” (as they call it) shirts in every town.
My local “Rebel Sport” stocks almost all “EPL” teams, as well as Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Aston Villa and Fulham(?!!), but only a handful of the Australian A-League teams.

I dream of the day I can go there and see a blades shirt!

And I have to agree that I think Sheffield is unusual in having such loyal fans - so refreshing to come home and see kids everywhere in blades shirts!

Also, intrigued by the original post, I went to this FIFA stats website, and to my great disappointment discovered that Leonard is only the 12th fastest CDM in FIFA 18 :(

Any child asking for a Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal shirt for Christmas should be leathered to within an inch of their life.
