Lisandro Lopez Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I would just look for a newgen GK to use as cover. Or look at Neur or Adler? Alternative to Di Maria = Giovinco? Ben Arfa? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
7zige Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Should I sign Mandanda for £30m?I'm going into the 4th season, I already have Akinfeev but I have absolutely no back up for him, so if he gets injured I'm screwed. Also, if I do sign him, who's the better of the two: Mandanda or Akinfeev? Also wondering if I should sign Angel Di Maria for £14m. He will only be back up for Nani. I was looking at Marko Marin, but his club wanted far too much. Any one have any cheaper alternatives to Mandanda or a better alternative to Di Maria? My squad is looking like this (if I sign them): GK: Akinfeev, Mandanda DR: Schwaab, Rafael DC: Ferdinand, Evans DC: Vidic, Sakho DL: Evra, Fabio MR: Ronaldo, Valencia, Ljajic MC: Carrick, Hargreaves MC: Anderson, Fletcher ML: Nani, Di Maria ST: Rooney, Tevez ST: Berbatov, Campbell I dont think you should...I have lloris playing for my team for 3 straight seasons 99% starting...goalkeepers are as fit as bulls...and 30M is a lot...Try get another striker etc bojan/saivet which are worth less than 30mil...Campbell is not good enough...

woolfc Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Alright guys, Liverpool fan here but I come in peace . I'm in a network game with 3 mates of mine, and we have all gone the big four, and I ended up going Man Utd. I'm just into February in the first season, and I'm currently 3 points off top spot, with 13 league games to go. Won the Charity Shield, Euro Super Cup, World Club Championship and I'm in the final of the League Cup against Villa. Unfortunately, I drew Chelsea in the FA Cup 4th round, and my youngsters crashed out 3-0 at Stamford Bridge. I have Juventus in the last 16 of the Champions League. Here are my transfers for the season; In Miguel Veloso - £10m Chinedu Obasi - £10m Cesar Azpilicueta - £9m Miguel Torres - £2m Jeremy Mathieu - £3m Mouassa Sissoko - £7.5m Artem Milevskyi - £10m Jeremy Toulalan - £14.75m Davide Santon - £3.5m Andrea Mazzarani - £8m Joe Mattock - £2.5m Tsvetomir Todorov - £1m Alberto Paloschi - £1m Vicenzo Fiorillo - £800k Fedor Smolov - £500k A few other youngsters such as Josh Lambo and Razvan Ochirosii, but they're not really future first teamers, more players I'll sell on for a big profit in a few years. Out Anderson - £15m Tomas Kuszczak - £3.5m Darren Fletcher - £12m Darren Gibson - £2m John O'Shea - £6m Park Ji Sung - £6.5m Lee Martin - £1m Fabian Brandy - £700k Dimitar Berbatov - £23m Wes Brown - £7m Jeremy Mathieu - £7m Zoran Tosic - £12m Gary Neville - Free Ryan Giggs - Free I play a 4-1-2-2-1 (a DM, two CM's, an AML and a AMR, and a lone striker). This is my squad (anyone not mentioned here who I have bought is out on loan); GK - Van Der Saar / Foster RB - Azpilicueta / Santon LB - Evra / Torres CB - Vidic / Evans CB - Ferdinand / Sissoko (retrained) DM - Veloso / Sissoko CM - Carrick / Scholes CM - Toulalan / Hargreaves AML - Nani / Todorov AMR - Ronaldo / Obasi ST - Rooney (can play AML) / Tevez (can play AMR) / Milevskyi Basically just after some advice. I don't think any of my youngsters would be best served as back up for next season, so hoping all of them go out on loan and get some first team experience. So with that in mind, I think I need; - A keeper to replace Van Der Saar. - A youngish centre back to be back up to the other 3. - A CM. Hargreaves has been OK, but injury prone, so am looking to sell him. Also Scholes isn't getting any younger and has been poor when he has played. Looking at either De Rossi or Hamsik to replace him - An AML to compete with Nani, as I want to send Todorov out on loan. Any recommendations, tips, just general advice on anything United related would be appreciated. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good signings, I bought Smolov in first season as well, he's absolutely lethal for the U18s and is starting to look like a possible first-teamer in the 3rd. GK: Akinfeev has been ace for me, cost me £16m in January 2010 so you could probably get him for less. CB: Sakho or N'Koulou. N'Koulou's the cheaper option but isn't quite as good as Sakho. CM: Joao Moutinho? AML: Sanchez or Montolivo (Natural at CM but he's assist leader every season for me at LM) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolfc Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Cheers for the advice lads. I had looked at Akinfeev and Mandanda, but they both seem to have been taken down on the 9.0.3 patch, and neither looked better than VDS. Both were recommended as a decent signing. May go after Lloris if I can unsettle him, and get him on the cheap. The lad who's Liverpool bought Sakho, so that's out of the question. But someone who is of a similar age to Johnny Evans would do me. Doesn't necesserally need to be a teenager. Is N'Kolou good enough to eventually replace Ferdinand or Vidic? They're some pretty big shoes to fill. I've a couple of possibilites for CM. It's just a case of deciding who to bring in at the right price. Always wanted to sign De Rossi, and I thought this could be the perfect opportunity. I'll check out Sanchez aswell. He seems to be highly rated by many, but I've never had him before. Just wondering how you all think it's best to use Ronaldo. He was a bit average up until Christmas, but then I gave him a free role, plenty of creative freedom and licence to attack. Aswell as focusing passing down the right flank, and it seems to have worked as he's getting plenty of assists, but just not scoring 30 odd goals a season!

Mooono Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 First Team Tactics I have Adriano (Inter Milan guy) coming for free next season, along with Marquinhos for £6m. Bar that no-one else coming in bar any good regens. Keirrison was bought then sent on loan because he didn't score for 15 games >_<. I'm doing poorly in the Premier League. First season - 4th, this season looking like 5th. I believe my side is quite good, and maybe it's just that they haven't gelled enough yet, but I can't get enough goals and have lost 1-0 and then drawn 0-0 with Cardiff City, lost 3-2 to Wolves and lost 3-0 to Bolton. Embarassing really. I can't stay up near top. On the other hand, I do well in the Champions League, won it last year and look like I will again this year. The difference in this line up is that Camacho usually plays at DM and Hamsik at MC. Any ideas on where to improve or how? I'll post my tactic and reserve + youth teams if needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevrin Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I would suggest that you change the forward run of Tosic and Ronaldo to mixed so that your DMC and MC can link with them. Post your tactic as well so that people here will have more info to help you. CheerS! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevrin Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Do you use global setting or individual one? I usually play like the screenshot I post, take a look on that. The reason I recommend you to give mixed forward run to your wingers is to avoid unnecessary move to the front while the defensive players couldn't link with the front men, just like I do for my team, all mixed forward run except DCs with rare. If you are playing attacking football then you need to play wide. If you get counter attack from a long ball of goalkeeper then you may reduce your defensive line to as high as your DCs' mentality. Try to use rare timewasting, I have been comparing rarely and mixed, my team play and attack better if I used rare timewasting. I give my DRL and DCs last notch of short, MRL with last notch of mixed, MCa and FCa with last notch of mixed and MCd and FCd with 1st or 2nd notch of direct passing. I like to focus on the passing so that my team can link well together. You may check your recent games and see how much pass completion of your team.

Nevrin Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I have seen your post at another thread. I think you have enough talent in the squad so you may make full use of your players instead of buying the new one to replace the current. I would prefer to play Alexis Sanchez rather than Tosic as Alexis Sanchez is a more complete player for me.

srezel Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Hi guys, currently looking for a new forward for the future. Hopefully a worldbeater. Looking at either Aguero or Benzema.

Nevrin Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 You can train him to play there. He could still perform as long as he is accomplished at that position. Miguel Veloso is doing well for me while his best position is DMC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess my only other option is Rossi, seeing as how Vela would be too expensive due to rivalry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooono Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I might sign Mario Gomez for £25m as Lyon won't accept £40m for Benzema and Athletico keep raising the price of Aguero (gone £40m now). I have £72m, but spending around £8m on regens (look really good). So with £64m, any recommendations on whom to buy? I'll post my team if you want - it's changed alot since last time.

lancer1 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I need some opinions here - who is the better keeper, Mandanda or Akinfeev? Akinfeev has made several costly errors and it's becoming tiresome. Mandanda on the other hand is getting unhappy at sitting on the bench, but when he has played, he's looked solid.

CPS Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 That's some youth squad Mooono. Anyone had any good experience with Rodrigo Possebon? He's come back on loan from Braga in the 2nd season and he's looking pretty good and has got the 'Dubbed the new Kaka' tag. He's currently being mentored by Patrick Vieira who I bought purely as I think he's one of the mentors in the game. He's still only 20 and has decent passing, creativity, technique and determination already for a midfielder. I'm sure there are better prospects out there but I'm trying to develop the existing youth players like Welbeck, the Da Silva's, Matt James etc and don't want to buy all the usual suspects again.
