CenaJohnno Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Man City pay way too much for players and make some decent signings I admit, but this one.....shatters any confidence in the Man City's boss transfer dealings. Glen Johnson (Portsmouth, who has VERY average stats, 6.91 rating in 20 games) for 14 million pound plus Elano..... Pretty damn ordinary transfer deal for Man City, Portsmouth must be having a laugh I will get a screenshot if you dont believe it What are some weird transfers you have seen ?

speedphlux Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Talking about weird transfers ... Look what Mark Hughes did in Man City in the first season ... Part from Ramires and Lescott, the others had so much troubles blending into the squad that by the start of the second season, almost out of them were wanting go ... home ... or somewhere else Else, I've recieved a 50 million pounds (10 mil + 20 mil after 50 league appearances + 20 mil in monthly installments in the course of 24 months) for Ryan Nelsen from AC Milan :confused: That offer got declined however - couldn't sell my captain.

BazzaMUFC Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 i got £55million offers from city for fletcher and carrick at the start of the game but city only brought carrick as they didn't want fletcher as well so i had to sell him to a mere £40million to tottenham.

achurchill Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 so is it possible to essentially take over an average club, sell your average players to city for huge profits, pricing them out of making any moves for the better players in the game, which you can now afford due to your transfer profits? Sounds like a plan! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakers Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Start of season two: Michael Own to Arsenal for £31,000,000 - yes Wenger is still in charge. Start of season three: Micah Richards to Arsenal for £30,000,000 - yes Wenger is still in charge. I'm sure they said something about the transfer system being completely re-written - so why on earth did they re-write that stupid part of it back in?

treble_yell_:-) Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 AI managers have much too high buying players stats, it was tested elsewhere if the likes of mark hughes had his rating dropped from 14 to 8 then he only brought in players of a certain calibre and even then only for weak areas of his team, the managers buying players stat needs dropped across the board unless they are known to be **** poor in the transfer market.

gasband Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Using Liverpool. Not the weirdest but Real Madrid allowed Higuain to come to me in the first season for just 7 mil pounds, I was trying my luck and viola I got it.... Jack Wilshere for 5 mil pounds, i tot Arsenal will never let him leave for Liverpool but I got him. I got Chris Gunter for 5 mil pounds too. and Behold, HUNTERLAAR was offered to me for just 12 mil pounds, but did not take it up cos I got Torres, Higuain and Pandev already.

BazzaMUFC Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 On FM 08 i was manager of Mk Dons in the premiership and all my transfers sold were payed in 24month installments which meant by the premiership i was making £7million every month due to getting £30million after 24 months for loads of my players such as wilson palacios, valencia, breno, anthony grant and others. This made my board love me as every month i was making huge profits. The only problem with this is not all the money goes straight into ur transfer budget so if u need the money straight up u will get about 20% less money but all up front. For example on Fm 09 i had the option of selling Rio Ferdinand for £37million after 24months or £32 up front so i took the £32 and brought Micah Richards and Carlos Vela!!!

DWolford32 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 this new system seems a lot cheaper than last years. i got gago for $14m, matias fernandez for $6m, benzema for $12m, and players like balotelli for $25m when last year they were much more expensive. also for a good striker the mark-up isnt there like before. i only got $45m for adebayor when he was worth $38m and last year i would have gotten at least $50-$60m. i think the transfers this season are a bit unrealistic to be honest but im not going to complain about some of the players i pick up.

I also tried with Gerrard -- 56m again. In reality, you only sell Lucas and Aurélio to Man City before they run out of cash, assuming you go for Hamsik.
