((First time trying this, so expect a few hiccups

Would appreciate some feedback.
About a month into my career mode so got some catching up to do. I've started with the most recent squads, so my team already has people like Shelvey and Townsend in. Wondering if I should factor them in with my transfers or not.))

Cheers. Playing World Class on full manual controls. Finding it a lil difficult at the minute
Don't give up though... Good luck!
Garry Monk's competitive debut was a disappointing defeat at the hands of Southampton. Newcastle never really looked like scoring a goal, with Tim Krul being called on a number of times to keep the scoreline looking fairly respectable. Southampton could have won by a much larger margin.
Newcastle put in a strong performance against their managers former club. Swansea dominated the opening half hour, with Ki Sung Yueng netting what was an excellent team goal. Swansea held the lead for only 7 minutes before Mitrovic, in for the injured Charlie Austin, headed the ball into the back of the net after a great cross from new signing Townsend.
Newcastle were the better team in the second half. Former Swansea city man Shelvey looked to have won the game after finding the net in the 80th minute. Emnes had other ideas however, scoring Swansea's 2nd goal just four minutes later.
Charlie Austin scored within 10 minutes of his return from injury at Manchester United. The new signing latched onto a defence splitting pass by Jonjo Shelvey, and went on to beat De Gea at his near post.
Manchester United were limited to a handful of chances in a superb defensive display from Ashley WIlliams and Fabricio Coloccini. The victory came at a cost for Newcastle, Saivet was taken off in the 61st minute with what looked like a serious leg injury.
Things started well for Newcastle in their game against Arsenal. Townsend cut inside from the wing, and was brought down in the box. Laurent Koscielny was lucky to escape with just a yellow card. Charlie Austin scored the resulting penalty in the 3rd minute.
However, Arsenal quickly took control of the game. They were on top for the rest of the match. Tim Krul mishandled the ball in the 55th minute following an ambitious shot, allowing the ball to roll into his own net. Newcastle had a chance to win the game in the dying seconds of the game, but Townsend's resulting shot went just wide.
Will do next months game soonish hopefully.
Neither side impressed in a bore draw at Upton Park. At the end of the game, there had only been 2 shots on target. West Ham were gifted a chance to win the game in the 80th minute after Andy Carroll was brought down in the box by Janmaat, but Carroll's penalty was saved by Krul.
Newcastle United were dominant in their 3-1 victory over newly promoted Watford. Siem De Jong was the man pulling the strings in midfield, scoring a spectacular goal from outside the box in the 48th minute.
Watford looked like they were back in the game after Abdi made it 2-1, but some sloppy defending led to a penalty, which was easily dispatched by MOTM De Jong.
Next up is the Capital One Cup, and we've been dealt a tough fixture, Manchester United.
Try changing the background color of your score boxs to 'R: 247, G: 247, B: 247' it should then blend in with the background
September 2015 Pt. 2
Manchester United were knocked out of the Capital One cup by Newcastle this evening.
Both sides rotated a number of players for the cup match. Newcastle in particular fielded only 2 players that had featured in their last match, Siem De Jong and Daryl Janmaat. Newcastle got off to a flying start with Mitrovic making it 1-0 in the 3rd minute from a corner. Their lead didn't last long however as Nick Powell capitalised on a horrendus back pass from Colback, latching onto the ball before dribbling past Rob Elliot and making it 1-1.
The 3rd and ultimately decisive goal came from Siem De Jong. Scoring with a thunderous strike
after picking up the ball on the edge of the box from a corner.
Newcastle United claimed a hard earned point against current league leaders Chelsea. Charlie Austins brace cancelled out goals from Oscar and Diego Costa. The home side had to cling on near the end of the game, as Chelsea looked the most likely to claim a winning goal.
Didn't even deserve a point tbh, not that I'm complaining ^^
Man City wasted a host of chances against Newcastle. They managed 14 shots, with 8 on target. Tim Krul put in a good performance to only allow the one goal. At the other end, Newcastle were much more clinical, scoring 2 goals with 5 shots on target.
Newcastle edged out Norwich in a lacklustre encounter at St James Park. Aarons was the most lively man on the pitch, and he set up Janmaat for the only goal of the match.
Newcastle booked their place in the Capital One Cup quarter finals after a tense encounter with Tottenham. Both teams only managed to create a handful of chances, with Wijnaldums goal separating the sides.
The remaining 8 teams in the cup are:
Newcastle Sunderland Liverpool Crystal Palace Everton Leicester Chelsea and Arsenal.
Stoke City were outclassed by Newcastle as the snow fell down over St James Park. Austin and co. were simply too much for Stoke to handle.
And new graphics:
Heavily inspired by Wyojasond's ones I must say
Ye. Will see if it lasts a bit longer before making a decision on difficulty. I guess I've had a lot of home games, and those definitely seem easier.
Don't jinx it ^^
Thanks. Loved yours so went the same website-style route. Just need better scoreboard ones now I think.
Is that with the scoreboard/individual games or the website/top scorers one?
Cheers.
Sorry, it's for the individual games
Sunderland made Newcastle work hard for their victory in the Tyne & Wear derby. A superb strike from MOTM Townsend was the difference between the two sides.
Bournemouth should have beaten Newcastle at Dean Court. The Magpies were well below par, and were outclassed for most of the match. De Jong opened up the scoring against the run of play, but Newcastle didn't have another good chance for the rest of the game.
Leicester frustrated Newcastle with a resolute defensive display. Kasper Schmeichel was in excellent form, and for a time it looked like Leicester might win the game. It took Newcastle 56 minutes to find an equaliser, and the game ended 1-1.
Townsend seems to be putting in good performances for you. A couple of tight games but still picking up points!
Crystal Palace grabbed a late winner against Newcastle United. Crystal Palace led 2-0 at the break after a poor first half from the Magpies. Saivet scored to halve Palace's lead in his first start since returning from injury. Ashley Williams appeared to have grabbed a point for Newcastle, but substitute Adebayor grabbed a winner with the final kick of the game.
Shock relegation candidates Liverpool were taken apart by free-scoring Newcastle United. Liverpool have now lost 8 straight away games, with their home form being only slightly better. To say Jurgen Klopp is under pressure would be a massive understatement.
Newcastle United booked their place in the Semi-Final of the Capital One Cup, courtesy of a fine individual performance from Moussa Sissoko. Sunderland never quite got going in the match, and were beaten fairly easily.
Tim Krul put in a fantastic performance in order to keep 10 man Newcastle in the match against Aston Villa. The game seemed to be heading for a goalless draw, before Wijnaldum stepped up and scored a wonderful free kick.
I don't know, easiest game of the season so far :c
You're almost as bad as you are in real life.
