First season?

 

Gawd no! 3rd season

EDIT: Delph scored yet another screamer for me. What a player!!

 

Oh. Who did you sign?

 

OD, i will try sticking with him but if he's not scoring i cant afford to keep him in the team. Gotta be ruthless.

Just back from footy and ready to keep the tigers up

Thats my current 11, plus screenies of a few gems I picked up very cheaply

 

Kieran, I'm not OD.:icon_mrgreen:

I think he will start scoring. He has really good attributes, so he's just about to explode.

 

That's some quality SPL talent. Looks like your budget doesn't allow you more expensive players, but still it's a nice team.

 

Once Lewandowski gets going he is unstoppable. Kept me in the prem in my first season, sold him for 8million and rebuilt the defence. He was signing of the season for 950k, 28goals in 19games

 

People, that's what I'm talking about.

 

I started the game with no clubs getting an initial budget.

Season 1: In €0 Out €0
Season 2: In €1.9M Out €3.4M
Season 3: In €13.25M Out €8.75M

Hopefully we'll be building on that when I take the SPL

 

The table says you will.
I already see it: Season 4: In 20M Out 25M

 

My bad. I do this a lot nowadays

Thats some * record. Im playing him up with Geovanni playing just off him.

Any suggestions for partners for him?

 

Barcelona are after Allan McGregor (€2.5M, I have set a price of €15M :icon_mrgreen:

I'll sell him in the summer for less cos I have a youngster who is nearly as good coming on a free transfer :icon_mrgreen:

 

Yeah, some regens will show up. Why don't you bring Berra or Driver (or both), they would be good. Just a suggestion. But maybe they won't come because of Edinburgh rivalry.

 

I played him as a lone striker, I figured a counter attacking formation would help me stay up.

-----------GK------------
RB-----CB-----CB------LB
-----------DM------------
-------CM-----CM--------
RAM-----------------LAM
-----------ST------------

Focused passing through the middle with the team playing the ball wide initially, then a lob over the defence and Lewandowski would stick it in.

My only signings of the first season were Lewandowski(950k) and Zuculini(510k) and the rest of the squad were already there. Remember to use the time wasting slider with Hull, saved my * many a time.

 

Dont want them scumbags!!

I have Barry Robson & Taylor (regen who is being tapped up by several top clubs)

I also have Alan O'Brien and another good regen. Alan O'Brien actually is playing really well for me this season despite his stats looking *. As they say, speed is everything.

The GK isnt a regen, its Joris Delle

 

They're actually pretty good in my game. As you wish. There cetainly is someone who cought your eye. Maybe Magguire?

 

Club stature will be boosted again this season's end.

I dont need to sign anyone for RM despite me bidding right now for Aaron Lennon (transfer listed). Taylor has immense potential, there is no need to stifle him

Driver is already at Fulham and Berra is at Sunderland now. He was at Wolves starting out anyways

Reynolds is solid, had him at Celtic and look up Bakary Soumare, he's a solid CB

ML/AML & RB/WBR are the positions I will need to strengthen before anywhere else, every other position has good depth

 

Just missed out on Skjelbred, he joined Bolton.

I've had clubs sniffing around Zayatte so i offered him around for £5m and got a few offers. IF i sell him - any cheap replacements?

Ive looked at Wasilewski and Beevers.

 

Left midfielder... Maybe McGeady, if it isn't too ambitious. Or Leonardo.
RB and WBR... You can take Hinkel or Degen. Caddiss looks like player with potential.
Why don't you try McCarthy and McArthur? They're the spine of my midfield.
