CaptainPlanet Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 FM09 as Benfica - I bought Pjanic for £55mill from Lyon purely to increase my reputation and needed to bring in a world class player to do so. Was definitely a one off, never normally spend more than £20mill on a purchase. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarkywigan Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 1. fm07 2. Playing as my world beating Wigan team and bought him off Liverpool in 2018 3. Hard to say view him as a Success but a complete waste of cash 4. £95mil for a goalkeeper (yes I know) 5. Mikel Serrano 6. Left on a free at the age of 32 in 2025 because I'd brought through an English youngster from my U18's to replace him in the first team and no-one would make a bid for him due to his massive wages Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlawrence00 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I just spent 80mil on Sakho. I am in 2016 - whilst he is ageing, he is awesome, so well worth the money. Prior to that it was 60mil on Pato. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilyoshi Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 not very good but: FM 10: 28M for a french guy called Yoann Gourcuff, in the 10/11 season, playing as man united, only played about 10 games so far but has been excellent! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death. Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 1. FM08. 2. Bought for Forfar Atletic, from Sligo Rovers. 3. It was a lot of money for a small, third tier Scottish club, but he was a star performer from day one. 4. £90k 5. Seamus Coleman 6. We played 4-3-2-1 so needed to get our width from the full backs. His marauding performances earned him the nickname the 'Irish Cafu'. 1. FM10 2. Bought for Liverpool, from Bayern Munich. 3. Early days. He hasn't shone so far but he's only played a few games. 4. £40m 5. Frank Ribery 6. We needed someone on the wings and maybe had more money than sense to address the problem.

Dumax Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 1. FM08 2. A. Madrid to FC Bayern 3. Aguero was fantastic. 4. £100M+ iirc 5. Aguero 6. He was great, but was still trashed in goals by bargain buy Cardozo who I'd gotten for £10M or so. 1. FM10 2. Spartak Moscow to Southampton 3. Been going good so far. Hope to see more from him. 4. $33.5M (USD) 5. Alex Meschini 6. Spartak Moscow made a killing from me this season and received almost $60M from my club alone!

Gandy Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 1) FM10.3 2) Toulouse FC to West Ham United 3) Absolute success. 4) £15,000,000 5) Moussa Sissoko 6) His second season was sketchy, having a few injury problems, but he has been immaculate since then. I am currently in 2012, and he has scored 4 from 4 in the Champions League. He pairs with Rodwell in the midfield really well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falahk Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 fm08, £80 milj for David Silva, from Inter, as Roma buying the then 28 year old Silva have to be considered one of the best transfers i have done, since it put me over the top to win 3 consecutive leagues, champions league, domestic cups, and club world championships, befor I started to play fm10, yet still he was not the main star of my team at that point, since i had a world class regen, De Lucia, that i trained up from my own youth section (20's in pass, long shoot, dribble, first touch, creativety, technique...and possible a few more nice stats i cant recall) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
viperk1 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 1) FM07.02 2) River Plate to Tottenham 3) Success 4) £11M 5) Fernando Belluschi 6) European Midfielder of the Year in 2008. Gave me my finest victory ever, too at WHL (against barcelona). He scored twice in the last 2 minutes of the match to give me a 2-1 win Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 1) FM09 2) Slovenian regen striker from Hull (I was Man Utd) 3) A bit hit & miss 4) £18m + 25% profit clause 5) See 2 6) He was on my shortlist when Hull brought him to England from Eastern Europe the previous season. They paid around £8m for him while I decided against bidding. During the season he scored over 20 goals for them and was U21 player of the year. When I enquired they initially wanted £35m + clauses but I eventually got him much cheaper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruyff14 Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Fm09 - Christiano Ronaldo 127 million to inter milan also bough Lionel Messi in the same season for 116 million. Messi was a complete flop after two seasons he was offloaded to Real Madrid for 60 million, Ronaldo didn't fair much better either to be honest he was later offloaded to AC Milan for 15 million after 3/4 seasons Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathxxx Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 52m for Sergio Agüero here too. Given I'm not normally prone to spending big, even with rich clubs, it was nice to splash out for once. The only reason the fee was so large, was my offers of player-swap deals were rejected every time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PitchPosh Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I bought Aguero during 2012 during my Arsenal save for his min. release at £52mil. I have never come close spending that much again, but seeing as I had £180mil in the bank and got the value of the club to about £500mil I figured I could treat myself, not to mention he's absolutely brilliant.

Yakutz Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 On FM10, I bought David Villa from Valencia for 53m at the end of my first season as Arsenal. Real had just bought RVP for 40m, so I desperately needed a striker, and ended up paying them whatever they wanted for him. I was nervous at first, but he was a roaring success. Despite being, I think, 29 at the time, he went on to break Arsenal's all time league goal-scorer record, scored 2 goals in my first Champions League Final, and became a club legend before retiring. Brilliant buy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeolo888 Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 125 mil for CR9 in FM09 from man utd to real madrid!! although under fm10, i have not been to a big enough club to attract the big stars!! under 2010, most i spent was 21 mil on a 21 year old russian defender who was a wonderkid!!

earmack Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 On FM 2008 I bought Rooney for around £70million for Tottenham when he was 28.

DrewM Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 £45M for a regen called Gerard in FM2008 . An 18-year old French CB who was an absolute beast. Kept him until he was 32 and he averaged a solid 8.5 throughout his career. Sold him for £30M considering he was getting on a bit. Never could find someone to replace him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 I bought Aguero on FM09 for his release clause of £52m (I found the money under the couch, I had so much) from Atletico for Barca. It was lloking very good for the first season then FM10 came out. This year I've just splashed £30m plus a youth teamer worth abvout £2.5 on a Dutch regen called Bart Wisse from Ajax for Betis. I don't know how good he is yet, but hes already a regular for the Netherlands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
