robiddybob Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 How are the transfers in your long saves. Ive only played up to 5 years and Man City don't seem to spend much. Year 1- 50mil Year 2- 0 Year 3- 0 Year 4- 30mil Year 5- 30mil Liverpool outspent City by about 70 mil. Surely City should spend more, not realistic!

achilles-the-victorious Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 The team is pretty strong right now. What do they need to spend big on? Got Toure in midfield, Kompany in defence, Aguero, Balotelli, Dzeko, Nasri, Tevez, David Silva... Thats a strong team w.o spending at all, for about 6 or 7 years.

Bababui Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Well, Toure is demanding to be transferred elsewhere for one thing...things like this should be happening in the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryknow Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 2011/12 - 72mil (Danny, Hamsik, Jagielka, Kameni and others) 2012/13 - 24mil (Vidal and others) 2013/14 - 9.25mil (Promising newgens) 2014/15 - 2.1mil (Promising newgens) They still have their current squad and those additions, but notable sold/released are Adebayor, K. Toure, Weiss, De Jong and with Balotelli getting loaned out. So they keep hold of all their good players and get rid of the duds while adding quality. I see no problems in my save. They have plenty of promising newgens as backup aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris0710 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 2011/12 - £59m (Danny, Dede, Srna and Nilmar) 2012/13 - £22.5m (Hazard and Sanogo) 2013/14 - £101m (Eriksen, Zhirkov, Busquets, Ruiz and Fellaini) In the same three years they have sold players to the value of £43m with the biggest sale being Costel Pantillimon to Southampton for £6m. Arsenal have spent £83m for the same period Chelsea have spent £78m Liverpool have spent £93m Manchester United have spent £123m Tottenham have spent £139m and finally my club Newcastle have spent £55m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceOwl Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 City already have a pretty fantastic squad without need for more investment. It seems that Chelsea spend the most but always end up struggling to finish in the top 4. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
achilles-the-victorious Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Demanding? I haven't seen or heard anything about that. Sure its not the typical agent talk when a contract is coming up for renewal? Well, Toure is demanding to be transferred elsewhere for one thing...things like this should be happening in the game.

Things Could Get Messi Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Chelsea always spend the most on my save but never finish higher than 7th! Man City sometimes spend loads and other times don't bother. To be fair though if I managed City then I would be buying the best young talent each year and not spending a lot of money in doing so.

Webby123 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 11/12 £38m 12/13 £112m !!! (40m on hazard) 13/14 £1.4m 14/15 £60m 15/16 £43m 16/17 £13.5m Their manager list is also a strange one. Two years of Mancini, then jose for two (mancini took the madrid job), then rafa for one (jose went to Inter) then finally Mancini again when benitez went to spain after euro2016 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudester Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 I find city spend more then enough money but the players they bring in never get a game anyway and sit in reserves for couple of seasons before leaving for fraction of the price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redbyrd Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Maybe they are trying to comply with the financial fair play rules. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
