I would venture a guess that you both are using Abuyamang as a poacher and relying on through balls and pace to score goals - whereas after one successful season (even as one of the best teams in the league) - other teams will always start playing deeper against you.
At least that would explain why Abuyamang doesn't score and one of your wingers does. Try playing with two strikers for a bit, or maybe three - mixing it up a little.
Moussa Dembele is the striker.
Ousmane has turned into a complete beast though.
FREE-SPENDING West Ham bought Luciano Vietto for £54m and Kyle Walker for £40m this summer (2019).
They aren't even good.
Just been drawn with Real Madrid, Inter and Anderlecht in the CL group stage. What the fuck?
£100m in the bank, board wont build a new stadium
I'd been getting constant extensions to St. Mary's up to 54,000 but nothing in the past few seasons.
Bought in a load more newgens (my under 23 loan farm is TASTY) along with Kroos. Just wanted a properly class midfielder for a couple of season until I get a permit for Katic, so I thought I'd get someone older rather than splashing £100m on Koke or someone only to bin them off in a couple of years.

My average is always just below capacity. Though I'd say the money isn't there because of the wage bill.
95% of 17,800 is 16,910 unless I'm mistaken:
So 5 years in a row above that (this year is skewed as we've only played 1 game).
We've also hit our max at least once for 8 years:
Done the first transfer window with United. Top target Passlack was a back-and-forth that ended with him staying at Dortmund but I reckon I'll get him in January.
Done A LOT of business:
I made a save with every player loaded and holidayed ten seasons to see who got good so some of them are from that, such as the two no-name p/x players.
Dybala for £60m+Blind was shrewd, even if I do say so myself.
EDIT: Oh Fellaini's off to China in January for £6m and I'm also getting these:
I'm a twit
Steam's just installed another update for this, what's changed this time?

Oh, glad that's been sorted.
'I don't think there was anything wrong with it'
Probably the most niche post I've ever made, this.
Liverpool - Season 2021/2022
We're getting close but I think we only finished 2nd due to our matches against those in and around us however we still dropped far too many points and again it had to be those ugly bastards who finished above us.
Away from the league and we finally secured the only cup that has eluded us this far. The EFL.
Everton semi was a heartbreaker I'm sure.Oomf!
Our domestic cup success went some way to avenging the Chelsea defeat in the FA Cup.
PSG can get fucked though. Poor form.
I'm hopeful we're on course for a good season next year as the past two have seen numerous first teamers improved. Karious and Winjaldum both left meaning Origi and Sakho are the sole survivors now since I'm not including the likes of AA, Woodburn and indeed Klopps own Marko Grujic since all developed under me and not him.
I'll upload the starting eleven when we get to the seasons big kick off.
Financially the wage bill is still at £1.1M, I'm struggling to alter that at the moment as it means ridding ourselves of Origi and we're another season or two away from doing that sensibly.
£900M in the balance and we're just £200M short of both Arsenal and Man United in our quest to become the richest, most valuable club in the world. Phwarr.
However, that's going to change and then some....
Two more years.
An increase in 18,000 odd.
I am anyway. That's where my games seemed to always lock up.
Does that mean I have to delete a random folder in the steam folder to avoid holland and Germany breaking?
I'm a twit
The summer has seen Mamadou Sakho, Andre Wisdom and Divock Origi all leave. Andre wanted £250K but that wasn't happening.
Commited wage bill spend....£733K.Cracked it!
Here's a rundown of the squad for the upcoming campaign. It's coming to an end regardless as when we move into the new stadium I'm opening the cheque book and dominating. I like to think I've proved I'm able to look after financies if I just don't buy anyone.

Some of the newgens on here are stupidly good.
Pilkington was much better than that when you first posted him. What's gone on there?
I figured it was a poor loan move but I clocked it earlier. Dropped at least 2.
EDIT: Pretty much.
My transfer budget with Norwich in season 5 has been set at £112m and perhaps more shockingly, I've spent some of it.
I've somehow got Wigan from minus £8 million to plus £8 million in a summer, whilst also signing almost an entire new first team squad to replace the ones I had to sell/let go. Christ fuck knows what the previous regime(s) were up to.
We celebrated with a 2-2 home draw with Burton in which we had 34 shots and they four, before crashing out of the League Cup to Morecambe.
Bring on the bloody Antiguan internationals.
What is more noticeable in this version is that even though I have a warchest, attracting anyone decent and already established, that isn't transfer listed, is quite tricky.
Not being in the Champions League seems to hit harder than ever.
Buying seems to be ever harder. I had to overpay like hell for this lad before the windows shut as half the players were moaning that the squad need strengthened. The squad that won the Champions League and hit 100 points in the Premier League. Hopefully he'll live up at least, though naturally he's out for a few weeks after getting crocked in this first game.
My fixtures are so odd. I just had 4 straight Home games in the Premier League.
Get me a new stadium lads.
Liverpool - Season 2022/2023
I thought our second placed finish last season suggested we're close to "coming of age" but as it turns out I couldn't have been any further from the truth as we slumped to an almighty low under my reign.
Manchester City winning the FA Cup is actually the only reason we're in Europe for the upcoming campaign and even that's the Europa. Poor form.
The departure of Andre Wisdom and Mamadou Sakho were costly as both alongside Gomez were our best defenders but it was going forward where our true problems lay. Defensively we conceded just 30 league goals, the third best in the league despite our poor position. Sixty league goals just wasn't good enough however.
Our poor league effort wasn't limited to just the division.
We lost our EFL honor against a dominant Man United.
The FA Cup faired even more unforgiving.
Away from the domestic disappointment, Europe ensured it was an unforgiving season.

Our new stadium plans have been complete and we shall be moving into our new home June 21st 2026. The YDWAWK experiment has failed however and the clubs purse strings are about to be open in a bid to give Anfield a perfect send off and ensure our new era is one of trophy filled dominance.
That stuff about 'the squad needs strengthening' is absolute balls. I can bring in six players in the position, but unless one of them is Maradona they carry on whingeing.
The main whinger was Odegaard and the guy I brought in to strengthen has replaced him in the team
It's really annoying, despite making signings my main striker is still complaining about the forward line needing strengthening. I only play one up top anyway so if I was him I'd keep it shut.
Still can't get Katic a bloody work permit, although it looks like he's started picking up caps for Serbia so maybe next time round.
He looks insanely good.
@Smiffy I wouldn't call it a failure. Consistently in the top 8 in the league with the most money in the world and not spending a penny yourself isn't bad. You're just unlucky you haven't had any proper world beater through the intakes.
If I were you I'd buy up other home grown lads from the competition. Give yourself more of a chance. Turn it into a HGH save. Money wont exactly be an issue either.
Buy up as in on youth take day or any HG player they have, Fox?
I finally got round to finishing the season of my game that Smiffy finished about eighteen months ago, and the game has fucked me right up the arse at the end of it. With one game of the season to go my first teamers were all worth in the region of ten to fifteen million, but immediately after winning that game and clinching the title, their values have all been cut to about one fifth of what they were, and eight of my first eleven are demanding new contracts. Normally I'd be delighted that so many of my players want to stay, but they all have those shitty non-negotiable, agent insert release clauses based on their new values. Like fuck am I giving a four million quid release clause to someone the game was telling me yesterday was worth fifteen.
I can't fathom out a reason for it either. The league reputations don't update for a while, the club reputation can't have taken a significant hit from winning the fucking league, and the players themselves all played up to standard. I'll play until the start of next season to see if it corrects, no doubt fighting off a hundred bids a day from clubs sniffing the incredible bargains the game's created, but if it stays as it is that might be it for me on this save.
Both.
Go big or go home, right?
There's a lack of quality centre backs in England.
Dele blends in with those newgens.
Half way through his second loan spell and I've just broke the bank (£10m) to bring Jeff in on a permanent basis.
Filthy pace.
They had better give me a new stadium.
Had a youth intake with two 4.5s, one 4, and three 3.5s according to my coach reports, which is assigned to a guy with 19 Judging Potential.
Game crashed. Hadn't saved.
Class of 92 stuff gone right there. I feel your pain.
Seeing as I think we're the only ones playing the mobile version, what's your take on it? I think it's maybe a little bit too easy, but otherwise pretty good as I wouldn't have the time for anything more complicated and time consuming.Dele blends in with those newgens.

Just did my first quadruple and won the World club championship again with Bolton. Might start a new game now as its getting a bit boring apart from the last month or so.
I'm 3rd in the league after 7 games. Three of us on 19 points and the goal differences are 14, 13, and 12 (mine). Every media thing now is complete doom and gloom and I'm being asked about players I have on loan if I wished I had them to resurrect the situation.
It's been a while since a had someone score a 'glut'...
And he's only 19
This game is still annoying sometimes.
This guy has been my right back for 2 seasons. In the last game I had made all 3 subs and my keeper got injured, so I had to stick him in nets for 23 minutes. I get this..
Fuck off.
Those minutes in goal have obviously made him realise his true calling, and he's wondering why you kept playing him right back.
In other news, Dybala has stepped his goals per game ratio up from 1.4 last season to 1.6 currently this season in December. if he keeps it up, he'll get the 100
Dibs on 99.In other news, Dybala has stepped his goals per game ratio up from 1.4 last season to 1.6 currently this season in December. if he keeps it up, he'll get the 100
The further along I get into this current season (approaching the final stretch now!) the more I realise I wasted £70M on Dele Alli. I thought he'd lift those around him but I should have just stuck with Allan, really.
What a joker.
Pilkington on the other hand is definitely going to be a beaut now he's getting the first team football.
I paid 85M or so for Griezmann and he kinda sucked the first season, Smiff (for 85M, anyway). Give it another season.
