craigd84 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Awesome.. he did get me a 4 star potential number 10 which I was stoked about, also a 4 star GK natural at GK and Sgk and he got me a 3.5 striker but looks like I can get him better than his stars say. I am currently top but on level points with Inter. We keep dropping points when we could take a massive lead. Weird thing... we are in the semi final of the CL and the final of the TIM cup.

craigd84 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 OK so choking in the league... 2nd 2 points off inter. Lost cup final to Napoli 1 nil.. But I'm in the CL Final against Barcelona... so strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible squad, so much fun to watch the games I'm in Jan and Chelsea just bid £60m for Sandro (£31m + £10m over the next year, £10.5m after 30 matches, £10m after international matches, 20% of next sale) I accepted, as no way is Sandro actually worth that, but I need to find a replacement asap. I'm also hoping the other clubs interested come in for him as I'm not completely happy with the way the deal is structured I am interested to see how you'll replace him!

I was originally going to bring in a defensively solid LB, but I actually had another interesting idea. I moved De Sciglio over to LB, and brought in Odriozola who looks like a monster going forward. My philosophy for this save is to really develop a squad, with a focus on youth. I try to limit my spending, although I will let myself have a slight net spend if necessary. I originally started with Pjanic in DM, and Dybala at AM, with Cuadrado/Bernardeschi at RW and Costa/Kluivert at LW. However, with Marchisio back I decided I needed to change it up. I have moved Dybala to RW (with a lot of freedom), Pjanic to AM and Bernardeschi to LW. Very excited to see how it plays out! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigd84 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Ended my first season... Lost the league on goal difference.. had a run of games where I couldn' win in the league and lost by 3 or 4 goals a time. I learnt a lot about my team and that they couldn' handle pressure. During this run I thought I saved title dream by beating Juventus 2-3 at their place. Jack Wilshire scoring the hattrick. Lost the cup final 1-0 We were abysmal. CL final, With it looking like a trophy less season was happening I stormed past Barcelona besting them 2-4 two MASSIVE goals by Ünder and an assist paved the way for the win in extra time. So season in review... I wasted some money on a few but won enough to cover the rubbish buys but I have got a gem in Wilshire as my trequartista or cm on attack. I have bought in loads of youth, and I finally got D'Amico on the books. 7million probably over spent but I'm happy. Sold Manolas to United for 35 million, Strootman chose a new deal with me than a 40 mil deal to join Chelsea though I'm thinking maybe I should of sold him. Second season to start soon.

Aizo4576 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Just had my first youth intake, got two high potential players! Both are 15, with 4* (+1) PA. One thing I've noticed from my own club and scouting, there are a hell of a lot of 14-16 year olds in the youth intake. Not sure if it's just me, but I'm sure normally they tend to be 16-17 in general, weird. Here's the one I'm excited about. I've got Higuain tutoring him, so hopefully he can pass on his perfectionist personality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aizo4576 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Starting to plan ahead for the off season, specifically trimming the squad and bringing in good replacements. So far I plan to offload Barzagli (end of contract, old and wants a raise - no thanks) and Buffon (retirement) for sure. Of course these are both leaders in the dressing room, so it's vital I don't lose any others. Chiellini and Marchisio are therefore safe. Other players potentially on the chopping board are: Mandzukic - High wages, lots of interest, will never be more than back up and I have Kean coming back who could take his spot on the bench Matuidi - High value, high wages, but never a starter. He's averaged just below a ~7 this season. With Marchisio, Pjanic and Khedira all ahead of him, he has to go Cuadrado - Not sure on him yet, but he's got a very high value and wage for a rotation option I also think the update I'm on is ****ed, so Costa is leaving when his loan ends. Optional fee is £35m+, and he is already on wages of ~200k/week so, despite being one of my best performers this season, I don't think I'll buy him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El tactico Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Hey guys I've just started a new save with Sassuolo after losing 3 months of great result in my second season with torino, they have some nice youngsters in berardi, sensi, adjapong and others. Was wondering if anyone else has tried them out yet, if they've had any success and what the budget is like in the second season.

craigd84 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Second season update. Won the super cup on pens against Everton... strange. Won the first game 4 nil, but struggled in the next game to win 1 nil. So I changed tactic to a 433 wide using a trequartista in the striker role and other little bits. WOW I went on a 12 win streak. So it' now January and I'm top with two games in hand as I had the world club cup to play in which we won. I'm 5 points clear as I am. I' trying to flog Dzeko I just can' get him scoring or playing well... D'Amico has 6 goals in 14 games so doing well. Florenzi has been immense as has my two new cbs.

FlairRA Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Heartbreak for Roma, it seems like we're becoming the new Neverkusen. 2nd in ALL competitions, Juventus have been absolutely dominant. On top of that, European Golden Boot and Serie A Golden Boot winner Alex Di Maria hasn't made the Italy squad... disappointing. We can do so much better we're almost there, ironically our points total was higher than last year's, if only Conte leaves! So close yet so far, I'll make a few astute signings and change up my formation, and then I believe we can truly challenge for and win the treble! On the bright side, Rossi is easily becoming a BEAST of a center-back. Shame about the dislikes big matches trait, but you can't have everything I suppose.

Got rid of a lot of players: Radja 35mil PSG Strootman 40mil Arsenal Alisson 68mil Man City Peres 30mil Inter so glad he is gone. Such a card magnet and hates big games. Few other players gone too. Bought in: Florinel Coman for 6 mil. Scored a debut goal against Juve Nicolo Barella loved him on my.liverpool save as Italy boss so had to... easy replacement for Radja scored in his first 3 games. Sitting on 3 in 4. Promoted some youths. Also Signed Celtics left back whose name escapes me right now. Notable things... Jack Wilshire is one of the best midfielders on the game.

Aizo4576 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 So my philosophy of focusing on youth and not overspending went out of the window when I realised that Özil (my favourite player IRL) was the perfect player to complete my line up. These are the transfers I ended up making: I had planned to sell both Cuadrado and Matuidi, however both were injured until after the window closed so I decided to loan out Kluivert and Bentancur (I need them to get some first team experience) until Jan when I can then sell Cuadrado and Matuidi.

Ty Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I am currently coming to the end of my second season with Inter (started this game on the .2 patch, so no up to date transfers etc). My first season was horrific - my top scorer was Joao Mario with 13 goals or something daft finished 2nd, 11 points of Juventus. This season is a lot better, changed to a narrow formation with wing backs and I've scored so many goals. 84 goals in 31 games in the league. This comes down to signing Belotti who has 39 goals in 38 games (all competitions). Other signings this season include Gabriel Jesus, Asensio (loan), Manolas (from Barca, not directly from Roma), Conti for RWB (loan) and a few youngsters. Last season it was loan signings and Berardi on a permanent (who is now out on loan himself due to formation change). I am sitting top of the league on GD both me and Juventus on 77 points, 7 games left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlairRA Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Two seasons more, and we've been absolutely brilliant, winning the title twice with 103 and 105 points respectively! Unfortunately in the CL we've been beaten by PSG twice, in the quarter finals and semi finals. I've been experimenting with Flippo Galli (AC Milan) as my HOYD. The Roma youth products have also been doing fantastic, with a new world class addition, Swiss winger Lorenzo Ruttiman! All we have left is to win the CL, then most of these players will have won everything there is to in world football. Have to say I didn't expect this, but managing Roma's been great!

craigd84 Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 great job Flair. I lost the title everything is season three. Milan stormed the league they won it 3 points clear of me. We lost too many games. My scouts recommended i could get Messi for 35-51 million... so I had too i got him on a massive contract and fee of 45 million.
