davidbowie Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Season 2 (08/09) Early Season Update Pre-season update (year) Transfers Got rid of alot of crap, VDS and Giggs would not sign (lower) new contracts, so they went (giggs to sunderland lol). Evra went because he was crying about not being allowed to leave, and he was on the last year of his contract. Sotiris Ninis - AM/RC - 4m Hugo Lloris - GK - 20m Finding a new keeper was a complete joke, you need to offer nearly 15 million or more for anyone decent. I went through about 5 different targets before I finally signed Lloris a week before my first EPL game. Formation Using the same 4-3-1-2 Formation as last year. Expectations for the season Semi Final of Champions League Challenge for Premier League Reach Final of FA Cup Final of League Cup. Remaining transfer budget 14.1 Million. Was given a bump to 42 million overall (an extra 12 million or so). Might look for another player or 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Seddon Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Hey All, just got my game, and im Man United, sorry, bit of a late starter. Does anybody know how good those two Brazilian guys are from flemingo? The LB and RB who are due in 2009? Also im about to start my first competetive game against Chelsea in CS. Team is as follows: ----------VDS---------- Pique--Ferdinand--Vidic--Evra ----------Carrick---------- ---Ronaldo--------Giggs--- ----------Van Der Vaart----- -----Rooney-----Tevez----- Looks a good side, got rid of 'Surplus' players such as Saha, Park Ji Sung for 8m and 3.5m respectively and brought in a load of backroom staff. Nani and Anderson will take time to gel into the team so i'll bring them on as subs with 10-15 minutes to go for a while. Gibson Hewson Evans are on loan and im keen to see how these guys develop. I also got in Saviet, Josh Wright and Nsue 'apparently' they are stars for the future. Just about to sign Owen for £10m and i got Baptistsa on loan too. Wish me luck, updates soon. P.S. those two Flamingo brothers due in 2009? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

-TonyVain- Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Started a game with United yesterday and been busy scoping out potential signings and attempting to strengthen my team. After fiddling with my transfer/wage budget I managed to stump up about £20m to spend… Most of my signings have been investments for the future - besides Huntelaar, Ignashevich and Denilson (who I signed as a replacement for Fletcher). I’m gonna try to give Piatti some cup games and maybe a few sub appearances too. I also have… Anton Sosnin on his way to me for £625k when he turns 18 in January Alex (from Vasco, dubbed the new Ronaldinho) on his way to me in January for 200k Sergio Mota coming in January for £250k Ever Banega coming in July 2008 for £2.5m Lulinha coming in July 2008 for £200k Quite happy with my preseason: W 2-1 vs. Fenerbahce (Carrick, Tevez) W 4-0 vs. Mulhouse (O’Shea, Frazier Campbell, Piatti, Fletcher) W 5-0 vs. FC Gueugnon (Fletcher, Rooney 2, Wijnaldum, Tevez) D 3-3 vs. AS Nancy-Lorraine (Rooney, Frazier Campbell 2) W 4-0 vs. Bury (Ronaldo, Vidic, Frazier Campbell, Carrick) L 3-1 vs. Chelsea in the Community Shield (Rooney) Shevchenko scored two in as many minutes for them - he can’t even get on the pitch IRL!! W 2-0 at home to Sunderland (Ronaldo 2) W 2-1 away to Tottenham (Rooney, Ronaldo pen) W 3-1 at home to Birmingham (Ronaldo 2, Giggs) Going well so far I think!! T.V.

davidbowie Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Goalkeepers are incredibly overpriced. I could not even get a look at a keeper for less than 15 million. Ben Foster not good enough for first-team. Lloris was on Int duty, had to use Foster vs Chelsea, and he let in a 35 yard deflected (slow) free kick, and stood around whilst they headed in their 2nd.

phantom1998 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Just got an 8.25 mil pound offer from Sevilla for Fletcher.. it's the 2nd last day of the transfer window.

davidbowie Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 bytheway: Sell Saha. Dl Piero is a pretty good utility forward. Good enough replacement for saha, and also backup for the AMLC positions. Giggs can be stupidly good as a striker in this verison, so don't be worried about having enough backup. phantom: Fletcher. 8.25 mil is a steal. Don't bother with replacing him. You already have Carrick and Hargreaves, with Pique, O'Shea and Gibson able to provide secondary backup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidbowie Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Evon such a stickler for punctuation. Foster is not as good at one on ones and reflexes as lloris, plus all my scouts and coaches say he has reached his limit of developement, and that is only as a "good" premiership player. All my coaches and scouts say "Lloris is better than Foster" and that he has the potential to be alot better than Ben Fosters current ability (which as said above is basically his limit). He is rated as Leading Premiership Potential. ----------- Ronaldo on the left wing with this arrow: Formation Is brilliant. If he picks up the ball on his wing, he will cut inside, pass and try to get it back or try to beat his man on the outside and cross, if the ball is picked up on the opposite wing he runs inside and offers another problem for the defence. So good I've now moved him to retrain him as as striker, and moved him to my striker training, to improve his finishing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidbowie Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Enda89ie: Do you have a french guy named Jean-Luc Vasseur in your game? In my game he was at Paris Saint-Germian as a youth coach. Also, see if you can get Asamoah Gyan. Has 19 for Jumping, 18 for Heading, 18 for Finishing, etc etc etc. You might be able to buy him. He has 7 stars in Defence and Tactics (I use him as Defence coach, replacing Quiroz), 14 for Working With Youngsters, 17 for Player Potential, 15 for Ability, 15 for Tactical Knowledge and 15 for Discipline. jonahno6: Anyone who you can find that is rated as a future leading premiership keeper. Foster according to my scouts at least (click on the player, then Coach Reports, and you can push the up and down keyboard arrow key to see reports from each coach/scout) is only going to be a good premiership player. Foster is a good backup though, I just got him to sign a 5 year deal on "rotation" for 13.25k a week. As long as he gets a few league cup games, a FA cup game and a few premiership games here and there he should remain happy, hopefully. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dudley01 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Hello All, I haven’t been on the forum in ages but I’m back! My PC is so slow so I’m only into the January 09 transfer window. Here’s the story of my game so far:- Season 07/08 Ins: Rocchi – ST from Lazio for £11.25 mil Saivet – ST from Bordeaux (free – youth) Outs: Pique – sold to AC Milan for £18 mil Rocchi provided good back up to Rooney and Tevez and weighed in with a few goals. Tevez scored 37 in all comps and Rooney got over 20 with lots of assists and was supporters player of the year. I didn’t want to sell Pique but he was unsettled, wouldn’t sign a new contract and only had a year left on his current contract. O’Shea and Fletcher were surprisingly star performers for me also. I didn’t transfer list anyone and had a £25 mil offer from Barca for Evra but I rejcted it. I won the league on goal difference from Chelsea but was so far clear, I started messing around with the team. I also won the CL beating Inter in the final thanks to Rooney’s hat-trick. I bombed out of the Carling Cup and F.A. Cup quite early so the board were not happy with that. BTW, England won Euro 2008 beating Italy on pens in the final! Season 08/09 (up to January 09) Ins: None Outs: Kusczak – to Villa for £4.4 mil Lost to Arsenal 5-1 in the community shield which went down like a lead balloon. In my defence, I had players injured and at the Olympics so only had 5 first teamers playing. Also dumped out of the Carling Cup at the first hurdle by Chelsea again. I am third in the league behind Chelsea and Arsenal (about 6 points behind) and haven’t played in the FA Cup yet. I did beat Celtic in the Euro Super Cup and beat Boca in the World Club Champioship final so the board were pleased with that. Possible transfer targets: I have £55 mil to spend and £7.5 mil has gone on Breno. His WP has gone to appeal so fingers crossed. I am also trying to get Pato from AC Milan…. Is he worth it? I would like to buy the following (but probably can’t afford it):- A new first choice GK (Foster wants to leave) A young back up left back for Evra A young back up right back for Neville – does Simpson turn out to be good. A young winger A young striker. Any suggestions? Who are the best young players on the game for each position? Thanks, Duds Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
