Ams07 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Thought you were meant to be struggling? :confused: i was but idk my team simply turns in a good performance against man utd:thup:. Maybe cuz its my preferred team in my manager profile:D. Its a great result, almost stole a win but i still have to wait to see how the next two play out as they are extremely important. Only then can i comment if i recovered or simply stayed in that slump. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe__the__man Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 im in 5th spot. My comment was more directed at that statement, 5th is a good position for Fulham. When you said you were struggling I presumed you meant that you were at least threatened by relegation... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you said you were struggling I presumed you meant that you were at least threatened by relegation... I was in third spot and a CL spot was possible. But after winning the carling cup we struggled and I was in 5th spot but the other teams hadn't played yet. Now I am in 7th spot, which is my highest position. I want to finish at least above 7th. I will play my remaining 2 games (arsenal and burnley). I need at least 4 out of 6 possible points to get a good position. And then will post as to how the team ended the season. Still struggling or playing like we used to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ams07 Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 Finally finished my third season. Managed to win both of my games with a comfortable 2-0 score. Secured a CL spot with 4th place ( a new record). Excited with the start of my fourth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ams07 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Look abit lightweight at RB and LB. I chose to have only two players in those spots. Smalling can play RB too and I really have never needed more than 4 fullbacks total Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgreenio Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Masilela > JVD, although from what you've said Konch is still there so look at a right back (not to mention Shorey if you're on 10.3), unless of course you're an actual fulham fan in which case use Baird who's better defensively than Pantsil, then Kelly and Baird can be taught LB .

SRL88 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I have just started a new save with Fulham. I was looking for an actual challenge for once. I had a Portsmouth save which I thoroughly enjoyed but that was on my laptop and the game crashed. My Liverpool save was good, but after winning everything it got a bit boring. I have completely re-shaped my staff, sacked pretty much everyone and brought in new people. So far I have brought in Jonjo Shelvey for £3m, Danny Wilson for £3.5m and Anthony Annan for £3m, all on 48 month instalements. I am also in talks with Javier Garrido on loan from Man City to replace Paul Konchesky who is out injured for 8 month, Vincent Enyeama for £850k over 48 month, Artem Milevski for £5m over 48 month, James Rodriguez for £3m and Grygoriy Yarmash for £2.5m. I have sold a few youngsters just because they are crap, and also sold Erik Nevland (Sevilla - £1.3m), Frederick Stoor (Stoke - £2.5m), Andranik (Parma - £1.5m), Bjorn Helge-Riise (Sunderland - Loan £375k, future fee £2.5m). I am also trying to sell David Stockdale, Pascal Zuberbhular, Chris Baird and pretty much most of my youngsters in the reserves. I am looking into trying to sell a few 1st teamers as well such as either Painstil or Kelly if I gert Yarmash, Etuhu or Dikgacoi and possibly Damien Duff and/or Andy Johnson.

SRL88 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Well having just finished my 1st season as manager of Fulham I have to say it was one of the most enjoyable games I have played. It was a very good challenge. I finished the league in 7th place, 4pts ahead of Everton but 7pts behind Spurs. I got to the Semi-Final of the Carling Cup, losing 2-0 to Chelsea over 2 legs, lost to Arsenal in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup and got beat on away goals by Hertha Berlin in the Europa League 1st Knockout stage. My signings included Jonjo Shelvey, Anthony Annan, Abdoulaye Konko, Artem Milevskyi, James Rodriguez, Danny Wilson & Vincent Enyeama. They all played very well throughout and I was pleased with how things went. Juan Roman Riquelme is arriving ojn a free transfer in July so things are looking bright going into the new season.

lpool14 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 just about to play my first prem game of the season with fulham had £6m to spend and i have signed Tafer (loan), Rochina (1.1m), Assulin (1.5m), Enyeama (800k) and Coentrao (loan). Sold two fringe players giving me an extra 1.3 to spend and in my first two europa league 3rd qualifiers Tafer smashed in 5 goals over the two legged tie against Dinamo Tibilisi.

deejay10 Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Just started a Fulham save. Looking at signing Mathias Jorgensen, Skjelbred and Danny Wilson. In january maybe adding James McArthur, Jonjo Shelvey and Alex Smithies. Looking to play 4-4-1-1/4-4-2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejay10 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Reached December 1st season, 5th in the league and finished top of a group containing Valencia in Europe. Andy Johnson and Stefano Okaka has been a deadly partnership, with Okaka deeper lying/targetman (10 goals), Johnson as poacher (17 goals). Hangeland has been a rock at the back, Duff/Dempsey/Gera have contributed well from the wings. Signed Alex Smithies, Danny Wilson, Phil Jones and Per Skjelbred. Danny Wilson is coming on very nicely. Michael Potts and Aaron Spear coming for compensation in January. Sold Nevland, Hughes, Baird, Stoor and Andranik plus a few youths for a total of £18m. New transfer targets are James McCarthy and Anthony Annan. Desperately need a left back as Shorey has been poor and is out for 4 months and Konchesky on a very poor run of form, but can't find anyone. Anyone else playing as Fulham ?

deejay10 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 The inevitable mid season slump has occurred. No win in the Prem in 8, lost the last 5, including Stoke and Burnley, at HOME!! I mean losing to Burnley at home is appalling!! Hit the woodwork 8 times in the last 4 Prem matches - obviously when the team is losing and is low on confidence, everything hits the woodwork. Just beat Burnley 4-2 away in the FA Cup, so maybe that will turn things around. Knochesky has been really poor all season, Schwarzer started playing worse, Smalling has been terrible. Really need a LB, CB. Masilela has gone to Villareal already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe__the__man Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Rakitskyi (sp) and Kana-Biyik are good players who can play at both centre and left back. Also look at Antonini if he's still at Milan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falahk Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 im testing to see if I can get a save going with this team, mostly to get a reason to play a flat 4-4-2, so far so good atleast crushed reserves 2-0 and then managed to beat Liverpool 4-3 dispite low fitness levels. I prolly wont make any major changes in terms of playing staff for my first session, still with the aging gk's and my best central defender prospect escaping to united there's a need to do some transfer work atleast, hence im eyeballing Shawcross and Enyeama (I have never used any of them befor), Im also looking a bit extra at Ben Amos since pretty much nobody seems to play him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMPL Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I'm giving this a go with Metal Guitarist's update. Doing ok so far (5TH after 10 games with 2 in hand) despite losing the first game to West Ham. These are my signings. I was given £16M starting budget which didn't seem right, so by selling the players I have I feel less guilty about spending so much. There's quite a few players there i've never signed before and one or 2 like Aquino and Assulin and Khasri will probably be replaced once I can get a few better English players in.

Sparky_07 Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Right started my Fulham game using a transfer update and really enjoying it. First Transfer Window closes Transfers In Marco Verratti £1.2M Pescara Thiago £650K Barcelona Anthony Annan £3M Rosenborg Jonathan Cristaldo £3.5M Vélez Maxwell £5.25M Barcelona Steve Finnan Free Transfers Out Gary Steven-Mackay - Mansfield Loan Robert Milsom - Rochdale Loan Matthew Briggs - Oxford Loan David Elm - Crystal Palace Loan Fixtures so far West Ham (H) 3-2 Everton (A) 0-3 Bolton (H) 2-0 Oldham (A) Carling Cup 2nd round 4-0 Blackburn (A) 2-0 Very pleased with my transfers and squad I have now, only downside is Zamora is unhappy and wants to move too bigger club. I am now looking to push on in league and go and a couple of good cup runs. I do hope more people play as Fulham very good challenge to make them into bigger club.

craven1 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I just started a Fulham game a few weeks back on an updated Xfer DB (Summer 2010 LFC Marshall). As SMPL said there's a bit of cash flow, which im not used to initially at the cottage. I was given 15M GBP, but with the downside of an expected european qualification place. That's a big ask for little Fulham, so there may be money, but there's pressure. FM'10 gives you a lot more Xfer leeway with long-term payment plans, so i took advantage of that and, unlike SMPL, experienced no guilt in spending it all and more. The fans did go completely ape**** and protest when i bought Keisuke Honda, however. I really wanted him so i paid 15M over 4 years and the backlash was immediate. As you can see im doing pretty well, beating Brum 5-1 in the opener, holding Chelsea scoreless at the cottage before going down 3-0 at Citeh and then beating Wolves 2-1 (fortunately Zamora did not break his leg for me). Despite my good results, i am still not in the euro qual zone, so its going to be a very tough season. xfers tactics Table Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
