just1 - What do you mean check form? He's been purple ever since I bought him.
If you check Sembei's posts of his wonderkids stats. In between aggression and the weak foot stats is the form stat, Sembei's wonderkid has a form of 5 so it's likely he will be very reliable with his conditioning and rarely blue or purple.
I have a guy in my team called Villalba who has a form stat of 3 and he is blue or purple more often than the rest of the squad. I could be completely wrong with this, as I'm just going off what I see in my game, but ideally it's better to get players with a form of 4 and above.
Unlucky with the cup game, sounds like a great game though.
I've just gone through the Jan transfer window in my 6th season, no new signings but a few guys have gone for about £20M each. I don't use them anymore so nice to cash in.
Knew I would have some big contracts to consider, Zarate (93), Gignac (89) and Delph (91). Signed Delph up for another 5 years on 8M, which I can just about handle. Zarate and Gignac wanted 14 million each!!

I will probably sign them up for another season and try to sell them during that time to earn some cash off them. If no one bites then they can bugger off after that season.
Will replace them with my youth team players, my backup CF is Forsell, who came through my youth team, he's rated 78 aged 20... not great. But he has 10 goals in 17 apps this season, and virtually all of those apps were sub apps with 30-20 min left in the game. So he can step up if needed. I want my team to be 100% youth team products in a few seasons time.
