Marc Lister Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 For that money for a squad player, I'd sell. You're getting a few more million than he's actually worth. You look like you have 10 homegrown players, soon to be 9 perhaps so if you have a youth player to promote into his place or want to invest the money from Bayern in a better option, go for it.

duvels Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 I started a new save and this is the PL at the end: Quite frustrating as I felt it was one of my better seasons on FM in a while. Lost it at Leicester at the end of April with a 2-0 defeat, just before another loss at Liverpool. After that we weren't in control anymore. We won all remaining games, but so did Liverpool. Ā On the other hand: So we won the CL on penalties against Dortmund. Together with the League Cup, it's a weird double to win. I had a big summer transfer window And managed to get rid of some surplus players too (Mata ā¬850k, Bailly ā¬30m, Lingard ā¬7.5m, Pereira ā¬9.5m, Telles ā¬45m and Chong ā¬2.8m). Didn't manage to sell Fred though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varane needs a decent partner, with a bit of pace ( probably look at Kounde here). I signed Pau Torres in the January window as Varanes new partner and am trying to get rid of Harry.

I will then use Greenwood as the main striker and Elanga as backup.Ā I also have Alvaro Fernandez out on loan who looks really promising, as well as some newgens coming through the ranks.Ā I really recommend playing this way as it becomes a tiny bit more challenging and it is also quite fun to see so many reach their potential.Ā The only regret I have so far is selling Tuanzebe for 60m to Arsenal.

One position is "critical" - GK- because DDG is 33 and Henderson is unlikely to improve to his standards.

stevemc Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 (edited) I'll be starting a Manchester United save once the Winter update is out, I've run out of steam with my current Glory Hunter save about 10 seasons in, don't know if it's the current ME or what but seeing tons of high-scoring games (AI too, not just me), regular AI 7-0, 8-0 wins, I won twice consecutively 7-3 away at Manchester City with my Newcastle United team in the EPL and FA Cup and that sort of stuff ruins immersion for me. Hoping the new patch will be tweaked and I can settle into a save with the club I support. One thing I'll probably do is use the editor to move Ralf Rangnick upstairs before I start so I can work with him.
