M.U.F.C....TSVR Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Playing a save recently (start unemployed), resigned in the summer from Stuttgart after 2 seasons. Took charge at Villa after they sacked Martin Jol. I grinded out 11th place. They were 18th when I took over. I only got £16 million to refit a pretty awful squad. So I looked at the free's, found santi cazorla! I managed to link him really well with Bent. Cazorla managed an average rating of 8.63 scoring 13 league goals and 19 assists in 27 matches. We made it to 8th, league cup final win ensures european football and more money to build. I put it down to cazorla but I must mention Bent. He scored 28 league goals, brilliant stuff. All of this is EXACTLY why I love Football Manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furai Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 On my Fm11 save with St Albans I got Benjamin Jeannot on a free transfer, he scored 20+ goals a season for 5 seasons in a row in the championship and helped us get promoted to the Premiership! He got 5 fans players of the year in a row and is currently a St Albans icon! We are in our first season in the premiership, and I hope he can continue his amazing scoring form!

sjm Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 In my current FM 2011 save, I signed Krisztian Adorjan (Liverpoool) on a free in League 1 (2013/14 season). He's now 32 and has captained the team for years, has won the League Cup (5x) and Premiership (1x), as well as League 1 and the Johnstone's Paint Trophy. For years he was by far my best player; while he's no longer the best player at the club, he's still good enough for the first team and the Premiership. He also has a nice habit of scoring extremely important goals in crunch fixtures. He's the only player who has been added to the club's legends who wasn't there at the start. Career (league) stats: P 344, G 69, Asts 105, MoM 45, AvR 7.24 The only other team he's actually played for are Accrington, where he spent a season on loan (BSP). Depending on what constitutes a "low transfer fee", honorable mentions may be due to newgens Jon Stringer (600K from Arsenal) and Benogo Drogba (750K from Debrecen). Stringer is a DC who scores a fair few each season (between 4-11 over 6 seasons) and is also a fan favorite (icon). Drogba is a creative MC/L and favoured personnel. Both have pretty decent average ratings and have attracted interest from practically every big club there is, but I've managed to keep them at the club. Ive bought some other promising youngsters for a few grand (6K-50K), but have sold most of them on (often for a few million) as they weren't quite good enough for my team. In contrast to previous saves on earlier FM versions, I've actually splashed the cash loads of times on FM11, buying loads of players for around 15M. On FM2006, I once spent 15.5M; everyone else was either a free signing or a couple of million tops. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Governator Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I believe I signed him at the end of the contract that he begins the game with. I had been barraging him with praise for so long that he never felt the desire to extend his contract; he only wanted to impress me . within a couple years of joining he was the best player at the club.

adampvfc Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 In my Port Vale save it has to be Jermaine Easter for 60k (in installments) scored 21 games in League Two!

Unknown Hacker Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 The Hajduk Split team that won me so much on FM12 was made up of free transfers and cheap Africans. My starting 11 for the only Champions League final that we ever got to was made up of 3 youth teamers, 4 free transfers, 3 Africans who came for fees of under £500k, and a single player who arrived for over £1million. After that final I had to sell most of that squad as bigger teams came in and I made around £60million in profit. The best player of the bunch was probably Augustine Gimbo, a centre back from Nigeria who was 7 foot 1 and had 19 jumping and 18 heading. He cost £425k at a tribunal, and was stellar...

Nearly a guaranteed league/cup/champions league/league cup triumph every year?. Brain numbing. I don't disagree, hence my final line! Granted winning cups every single year was harder than leagues, as you could still mess up from time to time. Although in older FMs I used to try to keep myself entertained by trying to set unbeaten streak records. Was so annoying if your record was 120 and you then got beat whilst on ~110 and knew you had to wait 2 years to set a new record again Thankfully FM 13 is a lot harder (if someone had posted a similar screenshot from FM13 my thinking would be more along the lines of your initial reaction, even though still slightly short of guaranteed) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
