Mattyboy89 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Just found that Vela is unsettled at Arsenal Ive just declared my interest as well. Hopefully I will be able to bring him in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooono Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I hate my Man Utd save. Everyone got the opportunity to buy Messi for £35m, Vela, Fabregas and for some reason my tactics = always suck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOSEPH! Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Buy Buy Buy! Im getting to the stage where the re-gens are starting to come up I hate re-gens. Dude, Messi's buy out clause is still 156 Million, Arsenal wont get out of bed for anyting less than 20 million for Vela on my game and they also rejected a 40 million bid for fabregas recently. Tactics are, generally, a hit and miss thing. Luckily ive found tactics that work for the majority of teams so I use them. Its boring and im dying for a 4-5-1 to work for me but it never does. You'll strike lucky with another team and win everything at some point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyboy89 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I'm not bothered about Messi in my game at the moment. Nani is playing amazingly well and theres no need to replace him yet while other positions need to be filled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOSEPH! Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 They ruin the game I think! By 2012 game-time every team usually has at least five abo****ely, unbelievably good re-gens with stats like the one Adiee showed us. It makes it too easy, plus they'll sign for you for a bargain price as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyboy89 Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Makes it a little interesting. Maybe the re-gens will be different in FM10. We will see! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Petty Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Hey JOSEPH what's up? I'm from Sweden I agree with about Briand. In FM08 he was amazing for my Tottenham. Scored 40-45 goals every season.. In FM09 he's not as good as he was in 08, but still decent. I've made an offer for him, 10m. I hope they accept it. CPS, I'll try Anderson in a more offensive role... But I have to say his long shots/finishing = worst I have ever seen! He can't score, but he is young and can improve a little I hope... I do not know if Anderson fits into my style of play. I play 442 with offensive wingers and high pressure... Maybe I could try re-train him to a left winger? Scholes is my playmaker. Like you said, he only has 1-2 seasons left, but so far he has been amazing. I have to mention Giggs also, 3 goals and 4 assist/9 matches in the PL. Rooney finally scored a goal in PL! I'm using the instructions Adiee gave me, and Rooney has been better and but still he doesn't score as many goals as I wish.. I have also re-trained Rooney too a left winger so now I have more options and can play 433 when 442 isn't working that well! I've made an offer for Briand, and if I get him I have 4 strikers... But I will sell Owen in the next transfer window, ha hasn't impressed me at all... And I took a look at Bangoura. He looks good. I'll make an offer for him when I have sold Owen (can't afford both Bangoura+Briand atm, plus I'm trying to buy Azpilicueta). It's alot of fun playing with Man Utd. Mostly I play with small Swedish teams, so it's fun to play with a huge club Some key matches this season are: 4-0 win against Liverpool, 4-0 against Arsenal and 1-0 against Man City Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adiee Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 And for the striker, you said Aguero or Benzema. How much did you pay for Aguero (if you have ever had him!) ? He might be to expensive.. But we will see Yeah definitely Aguero or Benzema. I have Benzema on my current game and he cost me £40m, but is worth it! Adiee, personally I would go straight in for Messi. World-class, cannot match him. As for your strikers... any of those players would be ideal, apart from the right footed and left footed only players. I see that as a big down fall sometimes when it comes to strikers. Bojan would be my first choice... if you can get him. So you reckon Messi and Aguero? I do like the sound of that! But if you look at Guilherme's stats, and he's younger than Messi, woldn't that be a better option? ALthough he'd probably cost more than Messi! Adiee Im taking it money is no object here so in my view go for the big names with a proven-track record i.e. Aguero&Messi. The Argentine link is apparent when these two play and Messi does wonders on the right-wing for me, being more of a success in past saves for me than Ronaldo has been. Given your situation with ten points adrift of City you need the big names to shine, so Aguero&Messi seem to fit the bill perfectly. Yep, money is no object on this one mate. I am in danger of losing my grip on the Premier League to City (God forbid!). Robben's been underperfoming, and Douglas Costa has been stepping in but I feel he needs more time before he becomes a First Team regular. I hate my Man Utd save. Everyone got the opportunity to buy Messi for £35m, Vela, Fabregas and for some reason my tactics = always suck. I have just made a bid for Vela (just to see what happens) - it got rejected but he's now unhappy with his manager for refusing it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPS Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Tom, another striking option for little money is Florent Sinama-Pongolle. Yes don't laugh, it is the same one who was something of a flop at Liverpool, but he has stats in the all right places for a decent striker. Everton signed him for £3.2m in the 2nd season on my game and he won Premier League signing of the season. Definitely better value than £10m for Jimmy Briand.

Adiee Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Cheers mate ALso, I've just noticed that Guilherme has a release clause of...£16m!!! So in theory, I could buy Messi for £35m, and Guilherme (who's rated as world-class too!) for £16m!!! And Daniel Aquino's release clause is a paltry £5.75m!! Update I've offered contracts to: Messi, Aguero, Guilherme and Aquino! I'm going to have to say goodbye to a few players though now. I may even have to change the system I play to accommodate these players. 3-5-2 Attacking I'm thinking - may have to re-train Dani Alves and Fabian Monzon in the CB position!

But you are right, 10m for Briand is not a good deal. If I get Briand for 6-7m I will buy him, otherwise I'll go with Bangoura and/or Pongolle.. I have also made a deal with Federico Laurito, a 19 year old striker from Argentina. He will join me next season. (1,2m) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPS Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 That's a good price for Laurito, he's 20 in my game at Udinese and a Wonderkid. Would cost in excess of £10m now (2010). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mooono Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I did it. I couldn't be bothered haggling for years so Messi will be signing soon for... £110m! All because Saivet said no. >_< Oh well.

Mooono Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Well its not my fault that I got the only game where he doesn't sign a contract with £35m release clause, which frankly I think is a rare thing.
