Just smashed my first opponent (HSV) in the first division 4 - nil :shocked:

That feel when man city is unsettling your star players Sad

Who needs Thiago when you've got Suso? tongue

Fernando Belluschi has been such a beast for my Granada side. Currently 7th having only lost once in 10 games, which was to Real Madrid. It was expected, but at the same time I'd just lost a 46 game unbeaten streak (carried over from the season in Liga Adelante).

I played Arsenal in my 4th game of the season @ Emarites...went for 4-6-0, parking the bus, playing all Spearing-Lucas-and Meireles as DMs, benching Carroll and Suarez, playing Hazard and Kuyt as CMs.

Wenger raped me after the game with his comments, but I got my 0-0 Very Happy

tactical genius eh Razz

top of the league after 7 games with 5 wins and 2 draws. Only 1 goal conceded

I'm managing Real Madrid and I'm wondering why no one bids on my bench players that I've transfer listed like Lass, Granero, Diarra, Kaka etc.

Also I spent 81m on Fabregas and wondering why that's all I get for transfer funds. :coffee:

I picked up Granero in my Hertha BSC save on a free, he's class

They don't bid for your players because most of them have very inflated wages. You know how Madrid pays everyone, well, most clubs can't afford them. Try offering them instead of just transfer listing them. They'll go at cut prices but at least you can sell them.

Messi: How the hell did you sign Neymar and all those stars in Berlin? Do they have a huge transfer budget or what?

Monthly installments, lol, I got alot of players on free transfers and Neymar was my real only big signing, I got Pjanic on a free too. C. Ronaldo is unhappy at Madrid I'm gonna try and trade Pjanic and buy him, lol.

by KMD Thu Jun 23, 2011 1:58 pm

C Ronaldo wages for me is like 170,000 pounds plus all the bonuses... he is a great player, but not worth that money, i get no profit at all

by Sushi Master Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:13 pm

Unhappy at Madrid?! That must be a first.

How are you going to afford his wages, though? You'd have to sell half the team or put all transfer money into them.

by Albiceleste Thu Jun 23, 2011 10:43 pm

Yeah its gonna be ridiculous, I'm going to try and get him but probably fail.

He's unhappy at being fined for getting sent off, lol.

by Onyx Fri Jun 24, 2011 12:29 am

Ronaldo managed to get sent off in my first league game. :coffee:

by Albiceleste Fri Jun 24, 2011 12:41 am

I had to offer Neymar, 24 million $ and 30 million in installments to get to offer a contract and he didn't want to enter talks Sad

by Albiceleste Fri Jun 24, 2011 12:56 am

Barcelona just offered 90 million for Neymar, what do?

by Guest Fri Jun 24, 2011 3:58 am

I am in mid December now.

only 1 defeat in 16 league games, still I am 4th. Suarez misses so many chances, Kuyt is my top scorer. Knocked out of EL in hands of Dortmund..but I've conceded 4 league goals in 16 games.

solid defense FTW :coffee:

by Sushi Master Fri Jun 24, 2011 4:46 am

Am currently growing a 4 and a half star youngster. He's gonna be a beast! 17 years old, 18 finishing, 16 in composure, acceleration, fitness and dribbling. I've got a few more 3 - 4 star guys. The problem is I can't tutor them all at once!

Anyone have good growth from loaning players?

Bayern sure gets shit transfer money and I might as well concentrate on the kids.

by Guest Fri Jun 24, 2011 5:02 am

AHAHAHAH

Just beat Chelsea away @ the Bridge on boxing day. It's CFC's first defeat of the season in HANDS OF ME !!

Played 5-4-1. Won 2-0. Goals scored by Skrtel and Suarez !! Spearing won MOTM. Take a bow son...TORRES scored 3 offside goals Very Happy

TOP OF THE LEAGUE HEADING INTO NEW YEAR EVE CLASH.

Yeah, you should loan them out at 18-20ish so they can get playing time and develop more, make sure that when they want to get him for loan it says 'valuable first team' and not cover for the first team

by Onyx Sun Jun 26, 2011 9:29 pm

Modric definitely is a cheaper alternative to Fabregas. :coffee:

Hamsik is pretty neat, too. Pastore if you get him early. Kroos if you don't mind waiting a few years.
