skogmantore Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I had a tough time getting out of the Championship 2008/09, but succeeded through playoffs with a memorable 5-1 victory over QPR. I had the best Chamionship team I've had in a long time, and still it was tough as hell. Then after the season Jimenez gets annoyed because I turn don 6-7M bids for him. I lose him to a 7.5M bid that the board accepted, which was not according to my plan. Anyways, I made some replacements on my team, and I am just about to start my first game in Premier League, with aquad that looks like this: gk: Hennessey/Jourdren dr: Ansaldi/Omozusi dc: Santacroce dc: Filipenko/Bärengrub dl: Yao/Olsson dmc: Carioca dmc: Roberto/Anita amc: Piatti amc: Buonanotte amc: Marko Marin/Yakovenko fc: Stancu/Nazarith/Monnet-Paquet I good team for the future I'm sure, but I wonder how my offense will be without Jimenez, who was my key player to get into the Prem...

GeesusChrist Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Originally posted by dexta200:hey guys my mate started a leeds game and recommended it to me so i thought i would give it a go! here are my transfers: i see your all having a question as too how he spent 6m but tbh i dont think it would be hard, sell alot of players and once i had 3m in the bank i asked the board for more money! which i got and spent on Gioda here is my current team and tactic. and so far my results have been pretty good! Leeds 2-1 Millwall (Michalik, Kenton) Macclesfield 0-3 Leeds (Kenton, Nordtveit, Stancu) League Cup 1st Round. Leeds 4-2 Tranmere (Michalik 2, Mihelic, Stancu) Crewe 0-2 Leeds (Piatti, Murphy) Sheff Utd 1-5 Leeds (Michalik, Murphy 2, Hora, Stancu) League Cup 2nd Round. its a bit annoying knowing you have won all your games but still be in relegation but i hope that will change soon lol! bring on the rest of the season! its looking fun so far! you must have put in additional payments because 650k for stancu - on my game he is valued at 1.3 million pounds same for some other players too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

skogmantore Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Geesus: Just a note on selling the players from the original squad. For example, you should get much better than 70k for Rui Marques. On the other hand, you got 85k for Flo which is more than I ever got. Good to know. Sweeney can bring in much more than 60k. More like 150k. Same thing with Johnson. I can never get anything for Kandol. And if I do, he always rejects that team. How did you do it? Beckford should bring in much more than 160k. 300k minimum, and if you're lucky more than 400k. Huntington should bring in at least 600k. Just some thoughts to help you maximise your budget. On the "In" side I think Nylén and Salomonsson are ok for that little money, but I think they are not League 1 quality. Good price for Stancu! That must be fantastic timing or something. I rarely pay less than 900k. Piatti came incredibly cheap too. I'm typically paying around 250k. You got Mardare and Sarghi cheap. congrats! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeesusChrist Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 skog you know that transfer screenshot isn't mine dont you? they rejected my offer of 650k so don't know how he did it? i started again and no-one wants : - huntington - at least not for 500k beckford hughes kandol westlake flo this time heath rui how can you get more money - i remember last years game let you get double their value on 24 monthly installments? I always manage to get rid of most people for £0 i.e to brentford etc but also when your income from transfers is at 30% then that is very poor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bihdhdhdhbd Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Terrible start to the season lose to reading then liverpool beat fulham lose to man city who i may point are my boggy team. Then the worst part in the 3rd qualifying knock out round of the champ league and i get ajax beating them 3 - 0 at half time at home like a fool i put on 3 of my new guys ajax score 2 away goals . Away to ajax i have 20 shots of goal and not a single goal there goalie playing out of his skin and yeah you guessed it they get a penalty in the 93min lose 1 - 0 out to away goals. I hate this game some times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bihdhdhdhbd Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 if i was u id look at a striker a left bk cos ive never heard of ur guy and sum better amcs and a dmc but thts cos ive only heard of mihelic vidal(who was awful for me) ferrari(rb) and maduro. id try veloso he's amazin will cost alot tho but worth it, posibly gignac, anderson i got him for 6mil steal. My striker cardozo is probably my best player he won the golden boat last season with like 70 plus he plays very well with kimz tactic now my back up striker yeah replaced him this season with some player that my scouts said were awesome well we see. As for my left back yeah picked him up as i was running out of cash last season for like a 1 mil but he he ended up playing better then ferrari at RB, as for veloso yeah great player but i haven't got a hope in hell getting him he is worth 15m and at valencia who won there league there even if i had enough cash i he wont come atm, but right i did need to replace my DM still playing eggert was a mistake along with ionescu and mihelic. Anyway went out and bought a new goalie yet again a new dm and a new CB who looks like he he has a lot of potential. plain fact is i aint got enough cash this season and this season looks like just need to ride it out and hope for euro spot either league or cup spot. The bright spot is who i got in my youth team for nxt season check there guys out. and this guy hello new playmaker oh and i just got this guy thought the youth program tell me what you think.

I always manage to get rid of most people for £0 i.e to brentford etc but also when your income from transfers is at 30% then that is very poor I thought those were your screenshots, but never mind. I wonder again if it's a timing issue. I start in March and I always get rid of Huntington (if I want to, which is not always) for at least 500k. It's really a game of chance on some of the original players. Like Rui for example, I have gotten 250k for him on some saves, and on others no-one wants him for 0! I could post my transfer screenshots but they would be in Swedish krona and not make much sense to anyone. I have really worked on optimizing the value I get from player sales, as this is a crucial success factor since your future success depends heavily on who you can afford to sign first season.

bihdhdhdhbd Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Well this was my first season look got me up and that was the main thing: GK Jourdren DL jorge rojas who i got 250k my game DR hosain kaebi Free but offer him lots of cash DC Now the two CB i used the clubs own hunting and michalik becuase i ran out of cash plus i thought they were good for cc1 however Skogmantore picks for cc1 i would see if i got the cash left to get his picks who look better. DM eggert jonsson retrain for DM and he plays great but he was expensive 500K for me DM Nengomashe 200K AMC Piatti Pablo quality bought 110k sold 30mil to milan 2nd season in prem sweeeet AMC richard witschge 6k he only lasts one season and i be honest thats all you need just go take a look at his stats AMC walter centeno FREE but you need to move fast and offer max wages or other clubs will get him fantastic at cc1 FC Stancu enough said back up GK i try and loan a player with zero wages to save on the bill DC/DM seyfo soley FREE get him great cover DC Esmir Sabic nice 26k AMC Nacer Barazite loan from gunners FC Beckford in you squad alrdy Just telling you who i got in my first season probly do it a little diffrent nxt time Skogmantore has come up with some good choices for the 1st season i work with very small squads like to keep wage bill in check how ever i do not spare on the coaches get 7 stars asap and best scouts asap dont care about wage bill with those guys and push the board to improve training youth every season.

bihdhdhdhbd Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Don't ask me about goalies 5 seasons 5 different number 1's one of the things i plan to fix on this new game. DL i used rojas until i got to the prem was good enough for me plus i had a soft spot him he scored the winning goal in the semi and final of the CC1 play off This time i will be more ruthless with my players i keep ed too many of the champ and cc1 players i e jonhson, mihelic , ionescu and niculae ect i still kept thinking they were good players well they are at there own lvl. But again lack of cash u cant rebuild a whole prem team with 30m in one season well lets see how it go's. Macsoz if you look back a couple of pages here on the forums i was 4 games from winning the prem but crashed and burned lost 2 of them one of them against my boggie team Man C, i can beat Chelsea manu liver pool ect but City my track recored sucks. Sunny was already at villa and banega is at Valencia who i might point out in my game are bloody fantastic they kicking barca and real asses, they got so many of the top players yeah i do have the Spanish league running.
