I'm in 2016 too and he's worth 29m on mine, had him since I started and got him for 3.7m. Has Liverpool as one of his favourite clubs too.

His record for me is immense. P182 Goals: 120

I play him as third striker to Siggurdsson and Cavani.

I have Fierro since early on, he had a decent first season followed by a pretty good second season, both as second fiddle to Quintero. Third season Quintero went out to Benfica, and I got in Abel Hernandez on a free. Fierro's struggled since then. When he's played he hasn't been very good. Just got a brilliant Rwandan regen CB. Will be awkward when he comes to me complaining about homesickness and wanting a few months back home..

How are you playing him? full back/ wing back. My full backs never seems to be able to get over 5 assists in a season. Its always the front 6 and my CB (who score bucket loads from corners). It would be good if they could contribute more to assisting or scoring.

45 games this season and 44 assists

. He takes all my corners and so get loads of assists from them,

Scored 31 goals from corners this season?! Dont even know how

Yea I've scored loads from corners as well. It's pretty easy. I just edited the set pieces and put most players on the back post, put otamendi attacking the front post then get the ball swung to the near post and he got 14 in 18 games last season (joined in january). James Rodriguez got 45 assists in 40 games and luis was on fire with 47 in 53 games.

Caston · « **Reply #4731 on:** May 13, 2012, 09:51:34 PM »

Think thats how I score them, front post to Cavani/De groot and they score bucketloads

And Could He Play · « **Reply #4732 on:** May 13, 2012, 09:53:27 PM »

One match. One fucking match, lose 2-1 to Sunderland, Di Maria breaks his arm, out for 6 weeks, Lucas tears his calf, out for 5 months, Glen also injured, out for 4 months.

andymanlfc · « **Reply #4739 on:** May 13, 2012, 10:24:23 PM »

Damn, Lost to PSV away 2 - 1. 3 Penalties in the match which led to all the goals. That was they're only two shots as well, oh well at least I got an away goal with my reserves out.

And Could He Play · « **Reply #4740 on:** May 13, 2012, 10:25:28 PM »

Was it due to a work permit? I had the same problem in my first season trying to sign him. Had to sign him the next season for double the price instead.

Fierro joins 2012, that worked out better, gives him another year playing first team footy.

Yeah think it's because he's a kid, Bueno joins from Pachuca at the start of your second season aswell.. He was on fire for me in his pre season, but just been loaning him out since then, had a dream of him and Fierro being a lethal pair of mexican strikers but Fierro was shite for me so fucked that idea right off.

Just beat Arsenal 3-0 in the first leg of the last 16. Maybe I can get to the final again this year, looking likely to win the league too. Abel Hernandez has been unbelievable since signing on a free. Still miss De Bruyne though, and wish the board didn't sell him. Hopefully I don't meet Liverpool and their front 3 of Suarez, Cavani and Doumbia, supported by Griezmann and Lucas again.

Caston · « **Reply #4750 on:** May 13, 2012, 11:19:25 PM »

Probably the most important win of my season, 6 points behind City who are top and I just beat them 3-0 , 3 points behind and I have a game in hand. 6 games left.

It's called Infusse Dark mate, you can get it on FM Base. The first time I've used a non default skin, I really hated this years UI and skin.

Cheers lad

Just started a game with Valencia. Got bored of England and never been Valencia on any FM before, first thing I noticed was £3.8 mil (may not be accurate, but definitely over £3 mil) per fucking month is going out on some interest loan. Just what I wanted to see!

after trying and tryin and trying

im top of the lerague 11 games gone, just beat everton 6-0 and arsenal 4-0. I was giving up.

Right, so i'd rather not be judged here, but did anyone else lob on a shirt and tie and run a comb through their hair and take a picture of themselves before starting their game for their fm pic?

Not sure if you can add one mid game, let me know if you can though, i want to age my pic on photoshop as my character gets older.. don't wanna look 24 when im meant to be 60, gunna give myself a proper egg in the nest and jowls.

Also im fucking fuming, just had a run of 16 wins ended by the fucking mancs of all people at anfield.. what is it with them fuckers always beating me, and that street rat De Gea always pulling off worldies against me hes shite in reality!

I love Regens, Got a striker called Iain Rush who has a decent goalscoring record for me so far and a CB called Steve Gerrard.

Also got these Regens who are boss and are forcing their way into more game time :-
Liam Bain (GK)
Benjamin (CB/RB)
Leon Johnstone (CB)
Ander Diez (LM)
Carlos Monroy (LM)

Have been blooding them in games against small teams and in games before big games to rest my players.

Got a clean sweep, Won League,F.A Cup, League Cup and CL (My 4th league title, 2nd F.A Cup 3rd League Cup and 1st CL trophy)

Now 2015, Steven Gerrard is retiring, I feel gutted for him, he has 124 caps for England. Tried in vain to get him to go 1 more season and would have given him 2 5 minute cameos just so he broke the record

I like managing bayern in the bundesliga but the u23 system is shite. There's an under 19 section with fixtures, once they reach 19 they get moved to the u23 squad that don't play fixtures! It makes it really difficult to give game time to some players, a lot are always lacking match fitness, needs some type of reserve league.
