That's a mouthful. That's royalty name, like it came out from Crusader Kings II.

Not sure if you're just making the connection because of Crusader Kings, which is a fucking brilliant game as we both know, but that's absolutely the case here. I've been trying to see if I can find out anything about him, but I don't speak German and he doesn't seem to be notable for anything, but that's definitely some form of nobility based name. EDIT: So, Freiherr is essentially the German equivalent of Baron, so he is Baron Christian of Aufsess. One of his relatives founded the Germanisches Nationalmuseum of Nuremberg

I'm a history nerd and even though I didn't know his name of his family it did sound like a royal name or at least the format of nobiliary titles in Central Europe.

In Chile at least it isn't that uncommon (there are around 10-15 cases in all history) also with 3 big teams (La U, Colo Colo and Universidad Católica), but never on that short span of time haha.

Blimey. Remember how good he was as a kid at Bordeaux? Played out wide then too. Him and Kevin Monnet-Paquet tearing it up for numerous sides of mine.

Henri Saivet from Bordeaux and Vaclav Kadlec from Sparta Prague out wide and some young Italian striker, Mario Balotelli I think his name was. You were golden after that.

There are a few fan made injury packs circling around the internet, I'd guess this comes from one of those. There even was a bit of a controversy involving FM's official twitter account about one of those packs including a Depression "injury", which obivously lacks class and is insulting for people dealing with that serious disease.

I think in CM01-02 players could develop depression, but I haven't seen it since. I guess it's too delicate a subject to include in the game, and quite rightly.

Surely a injury by a wild animal is nearly as bad. I was once cycling along when a pine Martin ran in front of me, to avoid such a fine specimen I had to swerve into a hedge.

Sometimes you just have to lull them in to a false sense of security before you bring them back to reality.

Well we've went from no green to one green. That's a solid return for our £6m investment in youth facilities, junior coaching and youth recruitment right enough...
