How on earth did you manage to get a team like that?

Surprisingly, Levy has given me a decent amount of money!  I've mentioned elsewhere that in my first summer, I had the board buy Sancho (which depleted my budget), then I sold Eriksen and Toby for like 200M which I used to buy Aarons, Maddison, and Dembele, and Dias.  I've tended to get good values for other players (Rose, KWP, Davies, Sisssoko, etc.) and a good bank balanace (so I get to keep most of the money) plus the money Daniel has given, means I've been able to afford a decent number of players.  Haaland, Butinek, Nacho, and Godfrey were cheap.  I said earlier in the thread that Ederson and City had  a falling out so he **only** cost 67M (which is obviously expensive, but not nearly as expensive as it could be).  The rest are usually fairly backloaded (because it's my beta save, and I was expecting to get fired and/or not continue).  I can provide a more detailed look, if interested, just let me know.

Can somebody please tell me how to set Tottenham up, im tired of rage quitting!!!

Here's my base formation

Finished 3rd last season.  FYI, in my first season, I struggled for the first half of the season (probably had too many transfers) and was on the verge of getting sacked for a few games in Jan.  Stuck it out (since it was a beta save) and been doing pretty well.

In my save, at the end of the second season, Ederson and City had a falling out, so I bought him for $67M.  Expensive, but Lloris has been declining and I was looking for a keeper to take over anyway (was expecting a younger keeper who could take over in a season or two, but I'll take it).  Hopefully we can challenge Liverpool who has won the EPL pretty easily in my first two seasons.

Interested to see how you do!  I have a Tottenham save going and am really struggling in the EPL (our next game v Newcastle has been labelled "el Sacko" because it's a must win for both of us).  Struggling to get Kane going (he scores 4 games one week then none for like 5 games).  May have had too many transfers (on top of the transfers spurs had IRL).  Good luck!

Gonna start with Spurs this year since you basically forced to sell Toby and Eriksen at the start - lots of money to re-invest.

I started with Spurs.  I immediately asked the board to buy Sancho.  Because he's young and English (club philosophy), they agreed.  Cost like $112M and drained my transfer budget.  Then sold Eriksen for $90M (could have been more, but I didn't want him in the EPL, so he went to PSG) and Toby for $30M, so I have those funds to use .  So I essentially had a $232M transfer budget!
