lee_kendrick Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 I habe about £80 million to spend right now, cannot purchase untill the summer now anyway, so will be more likely well over £100 million. i think i need a rio ferdinand replacement, not sure how good sakho is a center back? thinking about a goal keeper to, although i do have 2 very good youngs ones, and foster does ok. Btw how many people have foster in the england team, he never gets picked in my game even though he plays every game for me. where else can i improve my team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then got an interesting one... Athletico Madrid. Sven Goran Erikkson was just sacked with the club placed 19th in the table and the expectations being for me to win the league by the end of a two-year plan... I accepted! The club is VERY low on morale, with many players wanting to move on, and Antonio Reyes being ****ed that I dropped him from captain role in favour of Franco on goal. Reyes didn't have the mental stats IMO. Seems a good challenge and hoping to build up some talent from a club famous for young talent. Thanks for asking!

I am used to play in Italy and I often play there mixed (litte bit to short) passing with a fast tempo. This works pretty good and have brought me soms major succeses.

rocketronny84 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Hi all, Just started my first season with Man U - and it's my first game on 08. I played 07 and CM before that, but I'm wondering if you've got any tips that I need to hear before I start properly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasjs Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Buy some quality young players on compensation like: Sankhare - PSG Sakho - PSG Aquino - Murcia Fleck - Rangers Saivet - Bordeaux Wijnaldum - Feyenoord Thiago - Barcalona Galvan - Cruz Azul Goldstein - B.Jerusalem You can buy other good young players aswell, like: Kroos - FC Bayern Defour - Standard (this guy should even play a cover role in your first season) A good recommendation is to get Bojan(Barcalona) on loan for the season. Buy his favored personnel and praise him monthly. This will increase your chances of a permanent deal in 2nd season. He does become class. To fins these just search for them or their clubs in the search bar. If you get these then that will be most of your budget, but you have a title winning team anyway, so don't worry. Oh and those up there have been my transfers for my first season... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinsanity666 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Okay, after a lovely Benfica save, my Anderlecht save getting a bit boring and a miserable Derby game. I have decided to finally have a go with my beloved Manchester United. I never really wanted to start as them because they don't have much work to do in the squad, but now that i ran out of ideas i just thought: Heck, why not? Pre-season I decided to go for a 4-1-2-2-1[/1], because of the strong defence the anchorman really tightens it all up at the back and the 2 wingers move into 3 striker roles when in attack. A short passing system really is in its place with such a good squad and shouldn't prove any problems. I moved Ritchie Jones to the first team, because i don't have alot of central midfielders. This is where i moved in for my first transfer. Alberto Zapater! I'm also looking at a new AML, since i'm a bit tight on the wingers with only Nani, Ronaldo and Giggs. A new FC, somekind of a target man. The Ruud Van Nistelrooy deadly assassin. And offcourse a new GK, Vander Sar really just isn't my kind of goalkeeper AND he's dutch... Transfer Targets GK: Sébastien Frey, Gomes, Mickaël Landreau, Roman Weidenfeller and Bogdan Lobont. AML:Vicente, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Hatem Ben Arfa and Andrés D'allessandro. FC: Adriano, Michael Owen, Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, Malik Mouath Al-Hawasawi and Mario Gomez. Other stuff Anybody got a screenshot of Ben Foster, Possebon, Chris Eagles or Febian Brandy in the future? How good do they get? I might also be looking at a new DC that can cover as a backup/rotation player with Vidic. Micah Richards would be lovely, but really hard to get. Pablo, Vincent Kompany and Christopher Samba spring to mind. Maybe i'll even attract a great AMC to take over from Scholes as he's getting too old for my liking. (although i love him IRL). On my list have been: Guti, Raul Garcia, Diego(my fav), Juan Roman Riquelme, João Moutinho, Steven Defour and Pablo Piatti. Any help and suggestions are appreciated and will be taken into consideration ~Vinny_out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

man united Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Alrite, just started a new United game yesterday and going well sofar. Heres my current squad i play a 4-1-2-2-1 formation with 1 defensive mid, 2 centre mids, 2 wingers and 1 forward. van der saar foster neville brown vidic barzagli ferdinand pique evra lescott makoun hargreaves o'shea moutinho anderson gibson carrick scholes nani giggs ronaldo rooney rooney benzema tevez nani plays on the left wing and he has 6 goals from 8 he has been on great form, ronnie has 4 in 10, benzema has been amazing scoring 8 in 8 and rooney has 3 in 4, he had a ban at the start of the season so he hasnt played as much as everyone else, benzema is keeping him out the team but with rooney i can still use him on the left or right wing to an effect. were 1st in the prem after 8 games 1 point ahead of chelsea and 2 infront of arsenal and spurs. Lost only 1 away to arsenal won 6 and drew 1 away to reading. I created my own tactic/instructions... i think its great when you know your own tactic instead of using someone else's, when things are going wrong you understand what needs changed and aslong as you really studdy the game your playing you can pick up what needs changed and for me this has been great. Valencia for example i read the scout report on them and used instructions which i best thought would work against them away. We were getting beat 1-0 at half time, had our half time team talk tweaked a few things. Second half we were pilling the pressure on but couldnt find the net then the subs came on, 1 of those benzema who got 2 goals in the last 15 to give us a deserved win. A few months ago if i were getting beat id just up the tempo and attacking play to try get the win but by analysing whats going on and making nesecery changes gives you a great feeling when it pulls off. I tried to sign silva from valencia but they rejected my 44mil offer so i cancelled, i wanted dani alves aswel but i cancelled again after my 36mil offer was rejected. so they will be end of season targets. youth players in etock saivet thiago sakho fleck aaron ramsey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

man united Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 not sure, this is the 1st time ive signed benzema, i offered 7.5 mil plus 5.5 over 12months, 1mil after 1 country app, 20k per game for 10 games and 2.5mil after 10 league apps It got accepted and i offered him the contract. Liam the main things that will drop in ronaldo's game are his physical stats e.i. pace... his technical and mental stats shouldnt really budge. You only really need to look at scholsey he has excellent stats but he can't make those bursts into the box as often as he used too. you could use him as a striker if he can't handle it out on the wing anymore.

Vinsanity666 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 This was quite a thriller! I didn't have 1 shot on target after the red card as it nullified my midfield. Chelsea started a 4-2-3-1 bombing of my goal. I reverted my style from short passing to direct, quick & counter and had Carrick man mark Sheva. Seemed to have work as Vennegoor was in an open space between both Chelsea defenders. This happened in the Community Shield too tbf. Vennegoor doesn't look quick with his stats, but he's pretty fast... I think Chelsea don't consider him a treath so they double mark my wingers leaving Vennegoor with an open slot to put the ball against the net.

Chasjs Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I might report on my first season soon... although at the moment I am a bit pi**ed off. Knocked out of Champions League in 2nd Knockout. First round beat Chelsea 4-1. Go to Stanford Bridge for the 2nd leg and get hammered 5-0. I'm 1-0 down after 10mins and Drgoba gets injured... I cheer... then Pizzaro comes on and gets a 25min hat-trick... I almost cried. I go for it in the 2nd half but they manage to seal it with a late goal... Knocked out in the 4th round of both domestic cups against Chelsea(LC) and Everton-Vaughen broke though my bombardment of there box and scored a 118th min goal(FA). Before being knocked out of the Champions league I lose away to Arsenal 3-0 and draw with Newcastle at home 1-1. So now, 2 games left and Chelsea have practically sealed it. Although after I was knocked out I did fine 5 players 2 weeks wages for poor performances (they got 4s) and I murdered the opposition 3-0 in the next 2 games. Shame really, was looking great in the first half of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheps. Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Dont sell Carrick He's a brilliant passer, and can control the tempo of a game from CM or DM. I've just entered January in the second season in my game, it's going okay atm, not great, but okay. I'm 2nd in the league, 7 points behind Chelsea, but I've still got to play them again, and so do Arsenal and Liverpool. Into the 4th round of the FA Cup, and I was knocked out of the League Cup 1-0 to Arsenal, but like last year I was playing my youths. Also, I'm into the next round of the CL, I forgot who I've drawn, but iirc they shouldnt be too hard to beat. Targets for end of year: - Retain Premiership - Retain CL - Make FA Cup Semi's at least.

Chasjs Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Carrick will be fine their. Use money to invest in youth. Defour is great. Bojan is great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
