Jazzfusion Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I've kept 12 clean sheets so far this season, unfortunately we've let 16 goals past in the other 7 games Matty F is AMAZING. He's probably my favourite player on FM, and the reason I start games with Villarreal. 9 goals and 6 assists in 15 games with an average rating of 7.59 says it all.

Jazzfusion Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Some nice signings, although I think you're probably lacking a target man. Good luck for the new season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzfusion Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Fortunately it came in the January transfer window, so I should be able to get a replacement. Looking at Zapata for £12.5m at the moment, also got a slight shortage at MC so will look to bring in a player, maybe on loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzfusion Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I've just finished my first season, finishing 4th. Valencia pushed us hard, but we finished ahead by just 1 point. Matty F topscored with 24, also had most assists with 11. Witsel, Bolzoni and Sakho are developing very nicely, Witsel is attracting interest from top clubs around Europe My two main transfer targets in the summer will be Camacho and Azplilcueta, I'll also be looking to pick up another CB, as I won't be renewing Fuentes contract.

Wilson7 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 well done in the season stupid valencia haha , and matty f did great with 24goals!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzfusion Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 How has Cazorla performed for you? I'm probably going to sell him this season, he's been really average for me (Matty F outperforms him everytime on the opposite wing!), so I'll bring in a young spainard as backup to Matty/Rossi on the wings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson7 Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 Cazorla has been mixed , usually a rating of 6.98 i think , i was kind of disapointed with his performances as im a big fan in real life of him , but i thought i best keep him as he is a local boy home grown player and its not like he was worse player ive seen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzfusion Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I made about £30m selling all the dead wood that comes back from loan at the start of season 2 I've manage to get Alexis Sanchez for £10m (£5m to AC Milan/Udinese), which I thought was a steal, Caceres for £5.25m from Barcelona which could be a great deal also. Other transfer so far are Aquino, Laurito and working on bringing Asenjo to the club. I was trying to bring in a RB, but my targets are all to expensive so I'll just promote Santon, who can hopefully step up to first team football. I've decided against bring Camacho in for the time being, I had a bid of £20m accepted (couldn't get him for any less ), but I cancelled at the last minute. My scouts also found a pretty amazing Italian regen, stats are unreal for a 15 y/o. I'll post some screenies when the transfer window is shut.

Jazzfusion Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Wow. Siena just paid £3.3m upfront to take Altidore on loan for the season, plus a future fee of £19.75m He's labelled a wonderkid and has been banging them in at international level, but I have no need for him this season.

Arab Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Just started a Villarreal game. Changed a few backgrond staff. Bought Erick Delgado Peruvian GK for £775 to replace Juan Carlos who wants to go. Also signed Roberto Canella as a back up left back from Sporting for £5 mil. Board also gave me more money when I asked. Only done the friendlies so far. Be interesting to see how things go.

Jazzfusion Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I've just finished my 2nd season, finishing 3rd in the league. No silverware, again, hopefully my squad will stick together and have some success next season. Half of Europe are chasing my players though I might sell Rossi as I have a bit of overload in the ST position, Altidore and Paloschi have both come back from loan labelled as wonderkids, and their values have gone through the roof.

Purefun Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Well Rossi should get you a nice +40mil imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzfusion Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Season 3 is about to start for me, I've done my business in the transfer market, I still have a remaining budget of £60m, but I'm trying to increase the club's balance in the hope of building a new stadium. Squad Transfers I got a great price for Rossi, I was happy to sell as he didn't perform great for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzfusion Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 That also takes my spending over to £100m under my spell at the club. Fortunately we've sold over £155m worth of players in that time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzfusion Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Faubert I went for him after Azpilicueta opted to join Ath. Madrid instead us, which was annoying after all the effort getting onto his favoured personel! I'd still like to sign him to add some natives to my squad, and he has a minimum release clause of £12.5m which is a steal imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzfusion Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I'm probably going to look at bringing in another AMC in the Jan window, I've got got Matty and Witsel, whom are both in my first team. Any suggestions for ~£10-15m? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcidBurn Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I gotta have a go as Villarreal once I do my Valencia game I am really hooked on Spainish football at the moment. Got a soft spot for these after reading about the town and the clubs players. Do you sell Nihat I have always wanted to buy him but he is a bit too old to splash the cash on him.

Jazzfusion Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Faubert is having an excellent debut season, worth the money I spent on him! I've not scouted the GKs, no, nor are they on any of my shortlists; it's very strange and annoying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJnr10 Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Mates, this weekend I'm going to start my first FM2009 game, my team will be Sevilla or Villarreal. Can you convice me that Villarreal is the best choice? It looks like a good team but is there enough challenge? I don't like to much money because it makes it to easy to buy a lot of great players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson7 Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 theres less money at villarreal then sevilla , but its a better challenge i think not as good players as its a smallish club in the top four if that makes sense Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzfusion Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 You get ~£6m to spend in the first season, unless you ask for more. Though there are some great players in the squad there are some definite areas of improvement, CB being your main concern at the start. You also have a great chairman who (atleast for me) doesn't get involved at all and is prepared to back you in the transfer market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
