    =============

    Situation before the match (squad, bank, table, results of matched
    before yours if any, opponents' line-up):
    http://rssclash.altervista.org/staff/0340/index.html

    You agreed with Dan.

    OK OK, no more 3-5-2

    Perhaps if we had more competent passers, we could probably build some
    passing moves on the ground, and bring a bit more bodies in the
    opponent's half when we attack. But with our pure Drillo-ball, leaving
    just two strikers to fight for the long balls against 4 defenders is not
    going to cut it.

    The gamemaster would probably recommend that we improve our defenders'
    and midfielders' passing skills.

    Well that was just a brilliant debut from Eggen.

    Ugh. Maybe it was just the emotion for playing his first game in the
    glorious red of Jakobstad.

    But for da Bull and Mazzantini that could have ended quite badly.

    Amazing double save by Mazzantini to keep the score 2-1. And who knew
    that Da Bull could also be such a great provider? That was a peach of a
    pass for Piirainen's goal.

    New choice
    ==========

    What do you want to do?

    Let's make drawing lots difficult for the gamemaster:

    5/17: Release J Viljanen, we have a surplus of LWs
    6/17: M, let's inject some money
    9/34: E, I want to learn more about what makes Puputti so great
    1/17: T, let's just make Puputti a better passer

    Are you renouncing to 1/34 of your vote?


    Ugh, the last option was supposed to be 3/34. But yeah, let's keep it
    this way to make things even more difficult for the EGM!

    When you change the formation, the game tells you which players are
    supposed to perform worse (red X) or better (green tick) in their new positions.

    Hmmm...
    - Puputti performs worse in 3-5-2 (joint DM) than in 3-4-3 (single DM)
    - McGinlay performs worse in 3-5-2 (joint DM) than in 3-4-3 (advanced
    MF)
    - Sorvisto performs better in 3-5-2 than ... on the bench(?)
    - Piirainen performs better in 3-5-2 than in 3-4-3 (closer to goal, I
    get it)
    - Da Bull performs worse in 3-5-2 than in 3-4-3, (further away from
    goal) but he is still Da Bull and doesn't care about formations.



    (Let's just pretend to
    ignore that this crucial piece of information has been hidden from us
    for about 170 matches...)

    Try again. :)

    Hmm again...this is pretty valuable information, that may or may not
    have affected our decisions in the past. I think that at the minimum you
    should compensate us in the form of a free ladies' intervention of our
    choice. Actually no, make that 3.
