I will try to display how some of the youth players have developed come 2014 later tonight, but the future looks good for my team Just try it! Would be good to see if you get a new stadium as I've never heard it happen before. 2014? Must have got a few decent regens by now I'd hope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have got a few decent regens by now I'd hope. Didnt bug them in pre-season for the stadium, I see how it goes this season with attendances then annoy them mid season maybe. Aye I got some decent regens now, both through my own youth and through those I have poached. Could have alot more but trying to dwindle my squad down. Just sold 9 players more then capable of being first team players, simply because I got to many. Arsenal have given me about 60m for 3 players, plus there about another 30million in goal clauses etc, and ofcourse my standard sell-on clauses Still got some players I will ship of as the season goes on. Now, as you talking about regens, I have got a few that will be in my teams this year. Going to put them in my next post. I have decided to make it more challenging and have an all british team and a foriegn team. Cant decide how to split the games so I am tempted to just rotate them every game so they get an even share and the same team will never play 2 games in a row. Just call me Benetiz Due to this decision a few regins coming into the team a bit earlier then they would have, however I reckon they can hold their own with a few experienced people around. Hopefully the uploads will be done in a decent time, but may get interupted by dinner so not sure how long it will take. Will also include a few promising youngsters that may form the bench for the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xx11 Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Ok. Warn you now. This will have a long list of players (2 teams + backup players). Of course there be some that you can skip unless you wish to see what happening to them at this stage of the game in regards to stats or caps for national team. Will note down which teams youth squad players came from alongside the link. It has been decided, I will rotate the 2 teams from game to game. Yes this will harm attempts for some player awards, but to be honest it team success and not individual success that matter. Hopefully it doesnt ruin my long run of unbeaten league games. I will begin with the British team. All these players are eligable or have played for a British country, this includes Benega whom forms part of the England squad currently, well he has since I became manager and called him up to aid us in the world cup 2014. Though we only came runners up after losing to my former nation, Italy. Seems I left them with too good a side British Team GK: http://img250.imageshack.us/img250/153/benfosterprofilenx7.png]Ben Foster[/url] DR: Danny Simpson DL: Jon French - Man United Regen DC: James Young - Man United Regen DC: Jonathan Evans MC: Ever Banega - English Citizen, called to national team. MR: Matthew Brown - Norwich Regen ML: James Miller - Man United Regen AMC: John Fleck AMC: Jose Baxter FC: Wayne Rooney Foreign Team GK: http://img186.imageshack.us/img186/7459/eroscorradiniprofilegf8.png]Eros Corradini[/url] DR: Loic Abenzoar DL: Fabio DC: Gerard Pique DC: Namanja Vidic MC: Lloyd Cruden - Feyenoord Regen MR: Cristiano Ronald ML: Lionel Messi AMC: Giuseppe Rossi AMC: Anderson FC: Bojan Backups, Substitutes and Regens Goalkeepers Sergio Arias Not an outstanding goalkeeper but seems to be ok when he gets a run out. Using him to bide my time to a decent young Englishman comes through Gary Smith - Man United Regen. Hoping his mental and physical stats will improve and will be a good prospect Paulo Cruzeiro Regen, hoping he will develop to decent keeper in early 20’s but still lacking in physical and mental areas so not looking too good Defense http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/10/patriceevraprofilefq6.png - Getting old but still a great player. Just didnt want to drop Fabio. Year or two of playing from bench at most and hopefully he become a coach Jamie Reynolds Man United Regen, why is he not in the British team? Hmm, even Im not sure why I didn’t give him the nod. Maybe it will change soon. Sean Winters Man United Regen, could be good, if only makes his way to the gym and also learns to mark. Peter Moore Man United Regen, could develop into a great player, but needs to pick up in training a bit to get there. Still does a good job when he plays any match, at any level. Maximiliano Oliva Solid defensive except for him never finding the gym! Fabio - Corinthians Regen, looked a great prospect but not developing quite as well as would have liked M Midfield and Attack Alessio Cerci - Ruled the world cup, been amazing from the moment I called him into the Italy squad and even after I resigned he still fires them in. http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/5808/tonikroosprofileyf1.png]Toni Kroos[/url] Well he is a quality player, but wants a new challenge and has done for half a season. If the right offer comes in he will be sold but he on a long term contract so until an offer comes in he can play of the bench. What he gets for not being commited. Giovani Dos Santos Quality player, just where can he really fit in? For now he probably continue to come of the bench into any midfield or forward position. Nani Decent enough, but he as good as can get and just not got that edge. Good performer at times but mainly in the team due to liking him. Aaron Lennon - signed for 20k due to Newcastle administration Abou Diaby - Signed for 20k due to Newcastle administration Paul Marples Man United Regen, versatile looking player. Could come in handy. Dave Varney Performs well as an AMC, certainly doing the business for England Paul Thomas - Arsenal Regen, looking like he may become a very good player Adam Cook - Man United Regen, may be decent in a year or two. Adam Webb - Man United Regen, may be decent in a year or two. Daniel Davies - Millwall Regen – Solid all round midfielder, slight let down physically Darren Grant Man United Regen, slowly improving and may turn out very good Ian Deakin Man United Regen, may be decent in a year or two. Jeffrey Platten Chelsea Regen, his let down is mainly in physical area. Marcelo - Corinthians Regen, Solid looking player, shame he cant mark, this is his biggest weakness when it comes to defensive side of his game. In closing I am praying this post has come out correctly, if not I think I pull my hair out. I do apologise for the long post, unfortunately I dont do things by halfs! With these regens they are not all great but show some potential. For every decent player I got 4 awful players. There multiple quality players from the outset that are not here because they are either about to be sold, or attempting to sell them, ie Lulinha. Didnt want to bore you any more then I have. Hopefully this is an indication of some of the quality that can come through the youth team. I may soon carry out a "where are they now" investigation to see where players transfered early on are now. For instance: Louis Saha went to Tottenham in 08/09 for 10million. He remained there until the completion of 2012/13 season when he retired from playing. For the last 2 seasons he hadnt played a game and he is now an unemployed coach.

However since I've been boss for "some time now" (18th December 2008) they have given me a choice of which feeder club type. So I can choose from: Any type National loan/First option Work permit Commercial link International loan/First option Which type of club link should I go for? What would benefit me/Utd the most? I have the following clubs as my feeder teams and their link type in brackets: Aberdeen (national loan/first option) Antwerp (work permit) Bury (no benefit) Connah's Quay (first option) Fluminese (first option) Gamba (Japan) (commercial link) New England (USA) (commercial link) Newport Co (first option) Paramatta Eagles (Australia) (first option) Shelbourne (first option) Sporting CP (first option) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xx11 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 i wouldnt go for commercial. I found that once got 2 commercial links they wont give anymore.

Often though they come back with "nothing suitable" if you got commercial and work permit clubs already. Hence say "any" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
