Recommended Posts

Well, my game is quickly going up in flames. Lose to Lyon in Semi-Final of Champions League, lose in Semi-Final of FA Cup to Aston Villa, lost Aguero to Inter for £42! MILLION! Rip off in my opinion. Lost Pique to Zarragoza for £8.6 mil as the BOARD ACCEPTED it. The jebs. And on top of that. the £6-8mil players I wanted are now costing 30 mil, 25 mil, 20 mil, ect. Stupid season 2.

Messi cost 44.5 million. Pique was my first choice right back this season but i sold him to Barca to recoup some of Messi's transfer fee.

u overpaid for messi

That's actually a good price for Messi. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Its a really good price for Messi considering i sold Darren Fletcher for 20mil in the first season! It not that I dont rate Fletcher, I think he is a good player but he's no Messi.

I ned help to get rid of some players. I dont' know who to sell

I'm in my 6th season in 2012.

I need to sell 1 of these strikers

Rooney

Aguero

Tevez

Rossi

Huntelaar

Brandy

I wanted to sell Huntelaar but he is Everyone's favourite player so i'm worried it would harm morale

Attacking midfielders

Nasri

Diego

Matias Fernandes

Anderson

I'd sell at least 2 strikers tbh. Selling Huntelaar makes no difference to morale especially as he's so damn ****. And sell Brandy. For AM's, sell Diego and maybe Nasri though it depends on your wingers.

I need a right back i season 2 as i only have neville and brown. I can get M.Richards for £25m or Dani Alves for £30m. I can also get Behrami for £13.5m but not sure if he is better as a winger.

Which one would you choose or would you go for someone else.

Overpriced for both. If you want a right back, Richards is really not the way to go. He's hit attacking wise. Alves is better at both attacking and defending as a fullback. But £30m is steep. I got him for £16m. Try De Silvestri or Cassni. Look around. Maybe Lahm. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

sell brandy

I know mate, i got him for £15m in one of my Barca saves. Sevilla just were not budging this time even though he was unhappy and wanted a new challenge.

Tbh, i'm not that bothered as i had a good budget and wanted the best and Imo, he is the best.

Evon: Can't believe you still use near post for corners. Doesn't work at all now. Challenge CK is the best way now with no-one on near post.

Yeah sold Vidic, i feel i had to because he was unhappy about me rejecting bids plus he was being far out-performed by Rio and Barzagli who have been solid! I also have Pique and evans for back-up who coming along nicely.

Vidic went to Barca, Nani went to Blackburn and Brown went to newcastle. All were sold over 24 months icon_smile.gif

Hi, I just started as Man U and looking for a tactic guide.

The only player I bought is Thierry Henry so far.

Anyway, I would like to play very offensive attacking with very fast tempo and lots of through balls. I would like as little cross as possible unless someone is really wide open. I also want to exploit Ronaldo and Nani's ability by putting them as wingers and them scoring lots of goals/assisting instead of crossing.

But I dont know what kind of slider setting or even formation I should use. I think I should use counter attack but what else? What individual/team instruction should I give with what formation?

Thanks!

I meant he better hope he doesnt come back to score against him or something because he sold him to Arsenal.

Similar to mine but I don't aim the corners anywhere in particular. I've only scored 5 goals from corners so far this season and I'm in April icon_frown.gif

@Evon - try this thread mate, it's pretty close to mine, tho ofc as mentioned i've got both my CB's on their keeper

http://community.sigames.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/1519717/m/9602060673

I've just hit Jan and i'm on 15 goals from corners in all competitions (11 PL, 2 LC & 2 CL)

Rio scored 3

Vidic 6

tho ofc other players have scored from corners aswell icon_smile.gif.

My problem is that Tevez isn't scoring and Saha is :|

I bought Cavani just after the transfer window so now i've hit Jan he's just arrived.My theory was that i'd sell Saha (probably my least fave MU player IRL), but if anything it'll be Tevez i get rid of icon_frown.gif.

game too easy so you only using 10 players in a lopsided midfield? icon_razz.gif

I assume you got RAM: Ronaldo? Also assume LAM is giggs backed up by nani, and not nani backup form himself?

Giggsy may rotate with Nani tbh.
