fm will expand to cover women's football as well, including players and staff, board members etc. definitely a good thing.

pes. the 2006 edition had the most realistic version of okocha ever ... EVARRRR!! i scored goals from direct free kicks and from runs across the entire pitch, pretty much what you can see in the countless videos of him on youtube. the player names were atrocious due to missing licenses, though ... 😬😬😬

nothing is wrong with the vector, on the contrary. andrea just posts pngs so that they are usable in-game immediately without the need to be converted first. 👍 i for one am glad you post vectors, because that’s what i’m after, saves me time to redraw logos.

Transfer Thread
on a more on-topic note, i’ll be interested to see how perišić, son and kane will click. to me, that could be a very very nasty attacking triumvirate for opponents, plus conte is a proven master manager and coach. there could be bright days ahead for hotspur.

Transfer Thread
the problem is the system and that includes the vast majority of fans who support it as long as their own club benefits. once corporate heads and shady businessmen from north america, europe and asia realized how profitable football is, it was basically the beginning of the end. everyone was screaming about qatar buying the world cup, but these same people stayed silent when it was the case with germany for 2006, england for 1996, usa 1994 and so forth. the former just learned from the latter and applied the same techniques. then you have this prostitute infantino trying to install a world cup every two years and someone like wenger is at the helm of advocating it … and he was a club manager, so familiar with the strain and exhaustion it puts on players to cover all competitions in a season. anyway, could go on forever. selectively deploring the outfall of that survival of the fittest mode won’t change anything. i’m positive that the bubble will burst eventually, even current and former professional players are losing interest in the game (most recent example is neven subotić, he gave a great interview some time ago, where he says this whole construct is making him sick and he doesn’t watch football much anymore, instead choosing to focus on his foundation for clean water in africa, which is what really counts to him). just one more thing: football for SPECTATORS is entertainment -- so something you do in your free time, to either relax or distract yourself for a bit. but ENTERTAINMENT industries (film, music, games) have become dominant in our everyday lives to the point where everything else is mostly neglected … pretty insane.

yes, absolutely! i was being unclear -- markitos had it spot on, it’s from their social media page. this was more a follow-up comment to my wikipedia statement, where the article on the club has the argentinian historical logo. i’ve edited the post to clear it up.

@Markitos, great job. 👍 @handarugema, this is another case where wikipedia has the incorrect logo, they just copied the historic logo of the argentinian club (spanish wikipedia) -- markitos took the correct logo from their official facebook page: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_Atlético_Nacional_Rosario_Central

Which team do you support?
damien duff, robbie keane! ❤️ what a team they had @ the world cup 2002, shame how they lost against spain on penalties, that was some knockout game. i’ll never forget how they couldn’t run anymore but kept on marching to score that second goal in extra time, massive display of willpower. hajduk deserved that reality check -- we had too many inept boards and managers over the years, also a load of players who overestimated themselves. this time, it looks promising, looking forward to seeing who will be signed.

i highly recommend livetv.ru -- live streams of pretty much any sports event. you can pick the language as well in most cases.

Which team do you support?
shelbourne, you say? mate, i will have to instantly block you, i’m afraid … 😬😆 https://www.thesun.ie/sport/football/5236698/shelbourne-hajduk-champions-league-qualifying-round/ hajduk 👈 club from my first homebase split. europe’s oldest supporter/ultras group - torcida - is the club’s 12th player. they won the national cup this past thursday, ending a 9-year drought without national titles. eintracht 👈 club from my second homebase frankfurt am main. they famously breezed through the europa league 11 days ago, ending a 42-year drought without international titles. also national cup winners in 2018, ending a 30-year drought without national titles … do you spot a pattern here? 🤣 i have three more that i like for personal reasons and hope to see them progress to higher leagues: split 👈 younger »brother« of hajduk, their stadiums are several hundred meters away from each other. had a very good spell in the first croatian league when they played the europa league qualifications (fulham and torino were the opponents on each occasion), currently in the third league. my father used to play for them in the second yugoslav league for half a season in the late 1960s before he moved to germany. in his local club, omiš, he’s among the legends and was best scorer / player during his active time. omiš is also the same club where ivan perišić started his career. frankfurt 👈 shares its origins with eintracht, and played in the second league during its best times. currently in the fourth league. had a very successful section for women’s football and won the national title and cup a few times. kickers 👈 from offenbach am main. eintracht’s fiercest rivals, currently in the fourth league. two-times vice champions of germany (1950, 1959 -- lost the play-off against eintracht) and cup winners in 1970. won the hesse cup last week and thus qualified for the german cup. 99% of people would freak out if i told them i support eintracht and like kickers -- that’s probably the equivalent to liverpool and everton, just a few tads crazier. they have a positive score against eintracht, damn … 😂

International Logos in packs
i would go with federation logos, as that is the kind of logo every federation has. i believe in the next ten years or so, most national sides will have their own logo (the so-called »bigger« nations have individual logos for the female and male teams even), but currently that is not the case, so you’d still end up with a mix of federation logos and team logos, and not one consistent category of logos. however, i’d again want to point out that i’m not playing fm, so this isn’t a vote, just something to consider.

wikipedia in many cases isn’t reliable, sadly. there is a steady decline of editors, because often you have a few users who have hijacked topics/articles and then they gang up on others who edit against the former’s point of view (edit wars and the like), administrators do the same. it’s a good starting point, but no more than that. depending on which language edition you end up on, you will find conflicting information: example of racing club de france -- it’s an omnisports club, meaning there are sections for different sports, among them football. german wikipedia with outdated logos, but not the correct current one for the football section: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/RC_Paris spanish wikipedia with the logo of the main omnisports club, but not the one of the football section: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racing_Club_de_France_Football russian wikipedia (same as spanish): https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Расинг_(футбольный_клуб,_Париж) french wikipedia with the correct logo: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racing_Club_de_France_(football) english wikipedia has the correct logo as well, but often the logos are outdated or incorrect there. primary sources (official club sites, official club social media, official league/competition sites, official municipality web sites, official federation sites) are the ones that count, not wikipedia, regardless of how convenient it is to go there. @Derek has elaborated more on the flags, i wanted to keep it short. but here is the issue with the many flags of martinique -- there are at least six flags that have been used to represent martinique: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Martinique locals strongly oppose the use of the snake flag (it was used for ships in the transatlantic slave trade) (in french) -- french president macron ordered the martinique branch of the national gendarmerie to stop using it as its emblem (in french): https://la1ere.francetvinfo.fr/martinique/citoyens-refusent-que-drapeau-aux-quatre-serpents-represente-martinique-545373.html https://www.sudouest.fr/france/martinique-la-gendarmerie-n-arborera-plus-l-embleme-aux-serpents-vestige-du-passe-esclavagiste-2932188.php

those aren't official flags, and the use of some is strongly discouraged (like the snake flag). furthermore, there is parallel use of different flags for a region/territory, so selecting one would be arbitrary. it's best to keep these in the »alternatives« folder, because their official flag is the flag of france as they are overseas territories of france. generally speaking, just because there is something online doesn't mean that it's correct, it has to be researched on a case by case basis.
