carlleeds999 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 ive just noticed that ive got like £38m in the bank! last time i looked i had about £20m. the reason for this is merchandising, i forgot that a few months ago i asked for a feeder club for commercial benefits, and got one in china, and noticed that last month alone i made £6m in merchandising, so now im going for another one and look for a american team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcidBurn Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Just started second season I had £7 million to spend and probably didn't spend it too wisely I got Andy Butler on a free(been a rock in defense) Miralem Pjanic 200k(3 games 2 goals 2 assists so far) Nadjim Abdou 500k Giles Barnes £4 million Simon Walton Part/ex Eddie Johnson £3 million Like i said I have not spend my money too wisely so i loaned in Lee Barnard as cover for Johnson, Stancu and Doudin although due to injuries he has started the season with 5 goals in 6 games. I also got Dean Bouanis from Liverpool as I haven't bought a goalie i feel is good enough yet. Got Adel Taarabt aswell to cover Pjanic and Barnes in the AMC position. The reason i spend most of my budget on 2 players is because i was getting so annoyed at not getting work permits. I tried for Altidore no luck same with Cardenas and Freddy Guarin also another but i can't think of his name. Anyways so far have won 6 lost 2 but fans are happy because i have already beaten Cardiff twice. Just hope i can get promoted this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shikky Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Well, about to start my 4th season and this is what my first team looks like: GK: Geoffrey Jourdren DR: Eduardo Ratinho DL: Guilherme DC: Alex Silva DC: Breno MR: Giles Barnes ML: Wijnaldum MC: Dzsudzsak MC: Eric Bicfalvi FC: Thiago FC: Ever Guzman That leaves quite a few quality people on the bench too. BUUUT due to work permits I had to send off half of that lineup to my feeder club, so I'll not be seeing that team until 2 more seasons have passed. GAH!

man united Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 finally got patch 801 after abut 4days. Ive just started my new leeds game and im starting fresh. I usually load tactics and training ive used from previous FM games but ive just made a new home and away tactic so hopefully theyl work fine. Quick question, when you guys set your training schedules, do you set each individual player his own schedule or do you just gropu the players together who play in a certain position? I usually group them together but i was thinking if i want players to develop better is it best to give that individual his own schedule? also does anyone know of any good right and left wing backs that i could sign with league 1 with leeds? anymore recommended signings? sofar IN dalla valle rusescu hobbs - loan samardzic mihelic doudin sburlea sorin hora stancu jourdren contract talks with piatti sabic danny senda cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andypants Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Originally posted by man united:also does anyone know of any good right and left wing backs that i could sign with league 1 with leeds? I was able to sign Hatem Trabelsi and Quinton Fortune my first season after clearing some room for wages. I would also recommend looking at Pierre-Fanfan(FREE) and Buonanotte(~100K from River, Italian 2nd nationality). Buonanotte seems to have random stats, but in my game he's an ace. I just rejected a bid from Man U (12M + Johnny Evans) in Nov of my 3rd season. Pierre-Fanfan is a very good L1 centre-back, but he turns to rubbish pretty quickly after the first season, so don't sign him long-term. Ryan O'Leary is another good L1 and Championship CB that's available on a free or for very cheap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you can maintain your great for and secure euro spot Good luck and keep us informed mate. I was actually surprised that my fans weren't excited about any of my signings right off the bat. I snaked Briand from some much larger teams by giving him an enormous contract ... he didn't want to join me, but I made him an offer he couldn't refuse . Barbosa is already a fan favorite though. He's been the best new signing so far just because he creates so many chances. A 7.5+ rating, 8 assists and 4 goals in 13 appearances!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shikky Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Update: Now totally fed up with the game engine, and I have uninstalled the game until the major issues have been fixed. It's absurd to lose several games in a row where I dominate and create three times as many chances as the opposition - sometimes more. With that said I wish you guys the best of luck, and you'll probably see me posting in this thread again once the game is playable. -Shik Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm working from a similar philosophy and I'm in my second season currently second in the league with two games to go - almost in the Prem! From first hand experience, I would recommend: Kostadinov - £65k from Hearts, he's been the top scorer in the league both seasons and now worth £3m. Alex - Got him from Vasco and he will definately be a regular for me when I hit the Prem. Also look at the Romanian teams, you can pick up some quality young players for next to nothing! Stancu and Piatti both come highly recommended by many people in this forum but I've not tried them yet. Good luck! T.V. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive had stancu and piatti before with my other leeds game. I only played about 10 games as i wanted the new patch and i can say piatti is awesome, scored 9 in 10 or something from att mid.

Bert44 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 hello Sirs I have started a new game with my beloved Leeds, but I have some problems with my tactic cant get it to work. My main problem is that I have slow DCs Heath and Huntington and the opposition always get a counterattack and score. I have tried deep d-line and have build my tactic with tips from the"building tactics for dummies" still I dont get it to work. Also Im using Flo as targetman and Constantine as the other striker but I cant score. Im using a normal 442 formation. Now I would be very happy if someone who has had success with Leeds could help me out with some goood 442 tactic? Yours sincerely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does your first team players play best? do the tactics your setting them match with their attributes? pointless having mihelic playing CM position defending when playing away... he cant do it. Also in your training schedules focus highly on tactics... its easy really played 3 games and won all 3, 1-0 so our defence seems solid sofar but we could do with more goals so il be looking at that.

My team is Ankergren Richardson Huntington Sbazic (sp) Sepsi Zola Torje Ochirozvski (sp) Piatti Doudin Hora Rest of the squad include Shawcross Valle Gonzalez Da Costa Beckford Stubbs McGoldrick Howson Prutton Mihelic A very talented squad but not playing to its full potential.

Out of johnstones and league cup in 1st round. Disapointed about the paint trophy as we hit the woodwork 4times and they scored a 94th min goal to snatch it 1-0 and it was against rivals bradford aswel! stancu is really hitting form at the min ive solved the problems upfront, only problem is now were conceding a few goals aswel, atleast were still winning though.

-TonyVain- Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Wooooo! Promoted again - two seasons in a row now! Just been given £22.5m to avoid relegation from the Premiership and looking to strengthen my team. I don't wanna spend it all straight away, I want to save some for January in case of emergencies. I'm also not going to overlook loan moves which will save me shelling out on transfer fees. I've already got Seol Ki-Hyeon, Michael Woods and Abdus Ibrahim coming in the summer. Seol will give me depth across the midfield; Michael Woods is a future star who is also homegrown Leeds talent and will be valuable when I eventually get into Europe; and Ibrahim isn't ready for first team football yet but will be a future USA international and bring me extra money through merchandising. Currently in negotiations with Kevin Mirallas and Wang Dalei (mainly for the merchandising in China). Specifically looking to strengthen the following positions: Goalkeeper - In desperate need of a good first choice keeper as I relied on loaning Tim Krul to get me promoted from the Championship. Ben Foster is available on a free but is not currently interested. I've been looking at Ochoa and Fraga. Any other suggestions? Leftback - Ben Parker was my first choice last season but I don't think he's good enough for the Prem. Scott Golbourne would come to me as Reading have just been relegated, he's valued at £4.8m though. Obradovic looks good and valued at £2.9m but might not get a work permit - anybody had experience with him before? Anyone got ideas who I could go buy or loan for the season? Centreback - I've got El-Mourabet who I think should cope ok in the Prem but I need a good partner for him, as I'm not sure Andy Butler or Andronic are good enough. Currently looking at Steve Von Bergen, Garry Bocaly and Ryan Donk. Ideas anyone?? Defensive midfielder - I play Ritchie Jones there with Pierre Ducrocq as backup but he is getting old so need another DM. Not had chance to look at any yet so any ideas would be appreciated. Striker - Not essential but if I could get a guaranteed goalgetter on the cheap then I would definately do it. Ideas welcome. And here is a screenie of my current squad: ('Parinho' is Wellington from Sao Paolo. Fuglestad is a highly rated Norwegian regen who has Newcastle, Blackburn and Portsmouth after him) Thanks in advance for your suggestions guys. T.V.

I'm also managing Excelsior in my Leeds game and have just signed Navas for £110k on your recommendation - I hope he plays as well for me as he has for you! T.V.
