Tomaldinho Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 In my game Liverpool were nowhere for the first two seasons which allowed me to get the 4th spot each year. However, I'm in November of the third season and the top four are already flying, none of them have even bought anyone good over the summer. In fact, Man Utd don't even have a kepper, they have been using Heaton I think who is pretty appalling, and yet they are still running away with the league. The chasing pack of myself, Newcastle and Pompey are miles away and this season looks to be a write off. Which then means next season will also be a write off because I won't be in the Champions League Also, general question. What leagues and additional players has anyone loaded? I only did EPL plus all English players loaded. I now regret not putting ALL the other British additional players as the number of regens is limited.

Tomaldinho Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 January of Season 3 and the big clubs are circling for my players. Already bids from the likes of ManUtd, Arsenal, Chelsea, Man City, Spurs and Real Madrid have been rejected for players such as Giles Barnes, Joe Mattock, Ryan Taylor and Craig Gordon. Everytime a bid comes in I move it up to £50million and see if any club is stupid enough to accept it! However, even with all the money in the world the British talent is wearing thin so I'm not even sure I could sell them at ridiculous prices because there are very few replacements hanging about. Good news though, Joe Hart is way down the pecking order at Man City and his contract runs out in the summer having just rejected a new one. Any ideas when I can sign him on a pre-contract agreement? In previous games you could 'Approach To Sign' from December 31st onwards, how come it is different here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might run out of cash before I sort the defense though Squad Got Onuoho coming in soon, and then Downing.

Tomaldinho Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 That's harsh mate, hope you start again though!

Stomalomalus, it's far too hard to sell players on this game, even giving away my best players was far too difficult. It seems like my squad is good, but its actually terrible! Ive kicked off with a 3-0 loss at the Emirates and a 0-0 home draaw with Bolton. I Dont think my tactics are working, think I might change to 4-4-2. My squad is unlikely to change anymore at least until January. Im not happy about defensive covor though: squad transfers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stomalomalus Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 OK, so here is my entire team inc. reserves and u18s: squad squad2 Im quite pleased with the englishness now the window has closed. I still have Faubert and Quashie as they were both injured. I should be able to get rid of them in January. Hopefully Boa Morte will have a good season on loan so I can sell him next summer.

kroblues Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 End of transfer window- Shrewsbury Town 07/08 My Transfers As you can see, most of my transfers were loans, as most players that could improve my squad and were interested were too expensive to buy with my 50k transfer budget. Unluckily Ebanks-Blake tore his calf muscle in his debut, so I sent him back and replaced him with Coulson, who scored twice on his debut in our only win so far, 4-2 against Brentford.

Tomaldinho Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Aston Villa Season Three Review So this season went pretty well. I was fighting Chelski for top spot until a poor end of season saw us slip out of the top 4, but we managed to secure Champions League football again in the final few games. The Champions League again saw us as fourth seeds but we went undefeated in the group stage (only drawing in Shakhtar due to reserves playing). Over the games we scored 7 against Bremen, 9 against Lazio and a measly 3 against Shakhtar. Beat Bordeaux in the first knockout round but got spanked in the Mestalla in the quarters which sealed our fate. Again we had a nice FA Cup run reaching the final. 4-1 down against Arsenal at half-time before we surged back to 4-3. In the 93rd minute using a 2-1-2-5 formation we hit the post and had a goal disallowed within seconds which was annoying Some dubious signings at the end of the August transfer window as you'll see. Mark Noble was a rock though and with Barry out for much of the campaign ended up being a great signing. Cahill and Smith performed well from their back-up roles. Bad news is that Lescott just handed in a transfer request so I'll keep ignoring him and hopefully he'll just give up and be quiet Transfers Who played and their natioanlities Season Stats Premier League - 4th place Champions League - Quarter final FA Cup - Runners up League Cup - 4th Round Top Goalscorer - Gabriel Agbonlahor (28 goals) Most assists - Ashley Young / Shaun Maloney / Ryan Taylor (21 assists each) MoM - Gabriel Agbonlahor (8) Yellow cards - Ryan Taylor (16) Red cards - Nigel Reo-Coker (1) Highest Average Rating - Ashley Young (7.49) Next season I was surprised with the success in the Champions League this season so hopefully next year we will be higher up the seedings and will get an even easier group, but again once we draw a decent team we'll be out. The Lescott saga will drag on I feel and maybe it may be Micah Richards time having decided against him last season. Anyways I've waffled on because I need to go to bed but can't be bothered so sorry for going on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaldinho Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Alan Smith because he is so versatile, wage demands weren't too high either so I thought I'd blow £10million on someone who could cover pretty much every position from DM to CF. He hasn't scored many but that's because he was mainly used as a DM or a late, late sub for my strikers. Arsenal have so much money it's crazy, they just buy players for the sake of it I think. They finished 3rd this season behind Man Utd and Chelsea who were champions with 3 games remaining. Liverpool are the strugglers of the Top 4 due my 4th placed finishes, but they pulled together at the end of the season and got a UEFA Cup spot. You'll be pleased to know Newcastle looked to cause a major upset by finishing in the Top 4, but alas the big clubs (including myself ) powered through at the end of the season to see them drop to fifth.

kroblues Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Kroblues, Shrewbury, 07/08 Halfway As I come to the end of 2007, my Shrewsbury team are currently sitting in 3rd place in the league as I went 19 games unbeaten in all competitions, from a 2-1 loss to Wycombe in mid-September to a 1-0 loss to Wrexham on Boxing Day. This propelled me up the table after a start which left me in a relegation fight after 5 games. I currently have 3 more transfers lined up for January, costing a total of 26k for a defender, an attacking midfielder and a striker. The defender is likely to go straight into first team contention, possibly replacing Asa Hall as first choice CB alongside Langmead, while the other two are brought in to provide backup to Pugh and Constable respectively. My Squad As can be seen, Constable is easily the highest scorer in my team, with no-one else even in double figures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing it's 3 Auto Proms? Is Cotteril good enough for Champo, you think? Originally posted by SuperCupra:I have decide to give Spurs another go! Because i will not be beaten. It is the same profile as before, I will post my team at the end of the august deadline. Great stuff - I didn't realise but this challenge is unbelievably hard! More of a challenge and prolonged career I suppose! </div></BLOCKQUOTE> I didn't get Cotteril in the end, but it is 3 auto spots. I've managed to catch up to P'boro, and we keep switching between 2nd and 3rd. Bradford are still 7 ahead of me, so I might as well give up the title.

kroblues Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 \o/ I beat Bury 3-2, now 5 clear with 2 games left, only need one more win from two games, and I could clinch promotion against my rivals, Wrexham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kroblues Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 So I lost 1-0 to Wrexham, but I'm still going to be promoted as I'm 3 clear with one game left, and a +11 GD advantage of Dag & Red Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
