Bought Cavani. Bargain for 36m as he has scored 15 goals in 10 games.

Sold Skrtel for City for 18m and bought Lovren for 12m... Hope it turns out well. City is my direct rival for 1st right now.

Nvm. Skrtel rejected City based on salary... How the hell am I supposed to resign him now if even City can't afford his wages

Rage quit this game. Started with Vauxhall Motors in the Blue Square North, tipped to finish dead last and somehow won the playoffs and got promoted. So what do the board do? They decide to build a new stadium and put me into administration.

CornerFlag · « **Reply #2683 on:** December 30, 2011, 03:31:03 AM »

to be honest with Vauxhall Motors a new stadium's not a terrible idea, I remember being in the Championship at one point with them with last year's game and still being at a 3,700 stadium. Absolutely killed me for ages til I got something bigger.

How are you using him? He's got 11 for me this season in about 25 games. I expected more of him for the £36m I paid...

Fancying a game like that but dont have a clue on lower league players. What signings did you make to get promoted?

All my goals come from midfield. Got Suarez and Benzema playing the lone striker role between them and they have about 10 goals between them by Jan.

4th season, and all the good strikers cost too much now (Benzema was 6m and I sold Rossi for 25m, thought I'd turned a good profit but Benzama is shit)

Wolves just offered me 10m for Jack Robinson too, I declined even though he's not gonna displace Enrique any time soon, selling Cissoko instead.

You should be off getting us the lineup not playing video games...

There are sources to obtain it for free... but if you've got a few quid it'll probably come on the steam holiday sale. Or play CM01/02 thats free now, and someones made an 11/12 update.

Tried signing Leandro Damaio and had a bid worth up to £17.5m accepted (something like £9.5m up front and the rest over 24 months) then it got cancelled because I didn't have enough money! I definitely had enough for the up front payment, do you need the rest in the bank?

You need the initial £9.5 and then half of the remaining £8m. So in total you need £13.5m transfer budget for the transfer to go through mate.

What is the transfer budget like in the summer? Hopefully decent...

I won the league first season and got about £40m+ to spend, so pretty good.

El_Pistolero · « **Reply #2699 on:** December 30, 2011, 03:33:45 PM »

Beat United 3-1.
Lose to Wolves 3-1.

A point behind City and five above United/Spurs.

Le Jake · « **Reply #2700 on:** December 30, 2011, 03:48:13 PM »

We won the league last year, but this year we're stuttering along instead of cruising. The bank balance was looking really healthy, 100mish. So I just decided to sign Ramsey, Cavani and Huddlestone.

Lets hope we win it now!

edit - as I typed this we won 3-1 away at Fulham to go top

Cavani with a goal on his debut!

Twats throwing away the league at this rate.

Denmark can piss off.

Eriksen and Agger out for a month. My midfield is desperately thin now, just lost Jali for a month too.

It came up on the Steam sale on Christmas. It might come back on the encore, which should be the 2nd.

Just took over Newcastle second season, and they sold Ba to Genoa for 11 million just before I came in. Promoted Adam Campbell from the 18's he looks class.

U18's won the league with a 100% win record. Cup too.

New youth intake yields my 3rd British 3 1/2 potential striker in 4 years. Boom.

Finished my first season on 2nd spot .Lost the league to United on GD.Suarez scored 26 goals in 42 games.Now in the 2nd season, signed Bendtner ,Navas.Some suggest me best way to use them.I still have Big Andy and Bellamy in the squad.

dotmotion · « **Reply #2713 on:** December 31, 2011, 07:49:30 AM »

Ugh. Disappointing end to second year. Last out to City for title by 3 points. More or less decided at Eithad Stadium where I lost out 3-2. Got knocked out in the 3rd round of FA Cup to Sheffield Wednesday... at Anfield. Knocked out Round of 16 in CL by Porto 2-2 on aggregate.

I signed Kagawa on free though. My AM players (I play a 4-2-3-1) are now: Gerrard, Suarez, Di Maria, Kagawa, Gaston Ramirez and Downing.
- Got Di Maria off transfer list (16.5m) first summer
- Bought Ramirez for 8.5m first summer
I want to buy a poacher this summer though. Might have to splurge on someone big (Cavani?) cause I need a great finisher if I want to overtake City.

I can also move Gerrard to MC and Suarez to ST, so this is quite beast. Most likely going to sell Downing after I acquire more HG players. His wages are just too much for a squad player.
