ArsenalFan7 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Thx for the work, but there's a problem with this save as you can see lol.I think i'll have to buy Angel, but he doesn't get me excited. You'll find it hard to get excited over many LB's... There aren't really many LB's out there who are sensational. I've found sensational regen LB's but the only real great LB's at the start who you get excited about are players like Clichy and Cissokho but you can't even get them without paying huge... Jose Angel is one of the best LB's on the game you'll find even if he doesn't look the full package. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArsenalFan7 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 I'm getting £5million out of selling my 28 year old Kadlec. ;--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------; Here's the landmarks over my time at Leverkusen. And my hot prospects. This kid has a 199 PA and it set to become the worlds best Right Back This kid went to Liverpool on loan last season for £500k and averaged 8.02 in 24 league games scoring 18 goals and getting 3 assists and 8 MoM awards so his future looks bright (So long as I sell Pato and make room for him in the squad) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viquitor Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 My scout in East Europe found an guy and gave him 4.5 stars. I'm curious, so I looked his PA in FMRTE. 200 lol. Do you use Genie Scout or something like that? I used to use, but i'm controlling myself in this save. It's being hard. Best prospect atm: The 200PA guy: 5 per week, almost a slave lol.

Britrock Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Sinkiewicz hasn't liked Adler or my U19 captain (who has 3 star PA) since the first season, but nothings come of it yet... This thread has made me feel really inadequate. I thought I was doing well finishing 3rd and 4th in my first two seasons, but seeing everyone winning everything in sight has made me feel a bit stupid. As has selling Derdiyok looking at what he's done for ArsenalFan7. But looking at his time at Valencia since I sold him, he's not exactly setting the world on fire.

Britrock Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 One quick question, for those a few years in: is there any way to get a bigger stadium or expand the current one? 30,000 is way too small for my liking, yet the council won't let the team expand it.

Viquitor Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 How do you guys play Helmes?

ArsenalFan7 Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 That's a nice tally you got going for Helmes there... I sold him for £9.5million to Hoffenheim as he wasn't part of my plans though.

Jazzfusion Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I bough Reinartz as backup for my Hoffenheim team in the first season, and he became a starting CB in season 2 He developed really well; so much so that he attracted interest from Arsenal and a few other big clubs at the start of season 3. I actually let him go to Arsenal for £7m as he would have become back up for me (it was a bit painful to sell him since I want to keep a German oriented squad) I can post a screenie if anyone's interested in his stats .

Dinu Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 Decided to use a 18 year old tunisian regen for my left back problem.

Looking at the picture in the first post, was it built for the World Cup in 06 (excuse the ignorance...).

ArsenalFan7 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Helmes is a good penalty taker aswell. Unfortunate that you lost on penalties, hopefully the fans are a little more sympathetic. You had a good season though. Edit: I've been busy in the transfer market this season, the january transfer window closed 2 weeks back. Although I still have £36million in my budget left. I also have Daniel Schwaab leaving to Valencia for £13.5million (unneeded, good price for him) and i'm also set to sell Reinartz after his abysmal performances as of late I finally found a LB better than Gibbs but as a LB he obviously costed alot. And he just scored a 91st minute equaliser against Werder Bremen () The table is tight though and my team aren't turning up for some games this season, so I've no clue who looks likely to win the bundesliga.

ArsenalFan7 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 We're nearing 100 posts for this thread finally You'll recieve your budget for the success in your previous season I would imagine, if they're as generous as they are to me the board will give you a hefty transfer budget. Got my upcoming round of 16 match against inter in the champions league next, Derdiyok is banned for this match though after he was given a two match ban in the groupstages for a late tackle, I get him back for the next leg though..

Britrock Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Looking at that, the first thing that jumps out is that Edin Dzeko is a monster. And that if I'd only persisted with Derdiyok I could have saved a lot of money and hassle finding a replacement. Anyway, had a change of tictacs, this time to this, which even I thought would be way too offensive. Incredibly however, it led to this (from Dortmund onwards) The most amazing thing about that run of wins? Look at the goals against: 1,0,0,0,0,0. Mental. [sidenote: The Werder Bremen result came about thanks to a complete dearth of full backs (injuries and suspensions took out all 4), leaving me to play 3-4-3. Which worked wonders in the UEFA Cup with Toloi as a sweeper, but with him also suspended it didn't go quite so well in the league (although I still only conceded once incredibly, and had a lot of attempts on goal).] As you can see from their form, Hulk, Blanco and Albin have come alive in the formation. I've got them swapping positions with each other: Blanco with Albin, Albin with Hulk and Hulk with Blanco to keep them totally fluid. The two wide guys are inside forwards with Hulk as an advanced forward. The midfield triangle is an anchor man (Vidal) holding the show together, a box-to-box midfielder (Rolfes provides support at both ends, arriving late in the box for a few goals as intended) and an advanced playmaker (Bender). Bender's stamina isn't up to much so he tends to get swapped for Augusto during games. The defence is two automatic wing-backs, a stopper (Sinkiewicz) and a cover defender (Toloi) with a sweeper keeper behind. With Toloi's reading of the game the defence works wonders, and the full backs mostly stay back (they're not really needed up front) but occasionally get in on the attack. Adler is, of course, amazing. And constantly wanting to leave. But in 2.5 years, not one team has even made an enquiry about him. All of that has left me second in the league at the Xmas break, 1 point behind ... FC Koln, of all teams, who thoroughly beat me 1-0 earlier in the year.
