arsenalandaa4life Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Originally posted by purefun:Arsenal ... As promised Sakho is out injured so a little drop in his stats but quality.

Abenzoar Superb thats all i have to say. thx. thats alot of money per month for saivet and menez. you must be loaded. i played halfway through the season. i smashed metz 7-0 thanks to benzema. he got me 7. lol. im gonna take a break now because i have my religious education gcse next week. as the terminator said, 'i'll be back' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnetboyz Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 have decided to start playing my Lyon save, 2nd season, 4 games into the season and 14 goals scored and have decided i might create a 3-3-2-2 tactic to have a Toulalan/Bodmer/Kallstrom MC Trio have 42M to spend on a striker as i doubt vela will be good enough for 2nd season, any ideas?

Fr3$h Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Liam, Thanks for the updates, they make for an interesting read. Balotelli and Goufrann will be two excellent acquisitions.

liam_everton89 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 purefun Balotelli was too good too refuse on a free really, if he becomes anywhere near top of his potential I'll be pleased. Goufrann(sp?? drunk!) will be mainly as cover for the wide players, I've never used him before though so where would you say his best position is? Also if Robinho come's I'll be delighted just because of how much money I'll make, he's worth £26m on my game at the moment so thats atleast £40m profit the way I see it.

Purefun Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 BB Welcome again mate. Great signings. And a good season start already two cups! Kyle I would use Sakho in his second season. Anyway have a lood at Mensah from Rennes should be quality. Delpierre or Dervite or Bellaid are also good options. Strikerwise why not go for Guilherme if your on 8.02 he should be a beast. If your selling Delgado, options are Montolivio, Quaresma, Gourcuff, Ribery ... big names but quality and you could sometimes get lucky with there prices. Liam Ooh you won't be using Robinho than?? Gouffran is best used as an amr imo (thats what i did with him) he got me 15 assists a season. I sometimes used him upfront though, scored a few too.

liam_everton89 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 purefun No If I do get Robinho I won't use him, I've got Benzema, Saivet, Gignac, + about 3 other abit younger + Henry is joining me for £300k so no need really, I play 1 up top.

Intercept Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Finally got around to playing my save again. Was just before the December transfer window when I stopped. So I'll pick up from there! So to my horror, the transfer window opens and 8 of the first team starters are wanted men. I begin to worry for the titles I want to win. First to go was Toulalan to Inter after my board accepted the offer for him. Next was Stancu (Purefun, you were right, he REALLY isn't up to standard for Lyon) and Piatti on loan. That was the extent of the damage to my first team squad. Joaquin I nearly managed to grab but a late £20m bid from Arsenal ensured I would be gunning for revenge at them in the Champions League later. Another missed opportunity was Anelka who was transfer listed by request as well. I didn't notice it till PSG managed to sign him for £6.75m. Anyhow, with Toulalan leaving, I needed to find something to cover for him and it came in the form of a youngster who goes by the name of Sankharé. Didn't expect him to up his game as much as he has, and while his stats aren't impressive yet, he has been amazing off the bench and starting when Bodmer was injured. With the transfer kitty I also managed to bring in Matias Fernandez and two more youngsters in Aquino and Genero Zeefuik (my scouts rated him extremely highly. But I have learnt to never trust them). Once the transfer window had closed, I thanked what Gods I could remember for letting me reject the £23m bid for Benzema and moved on. Its now 16th of April and I have managed to secure the league title and a French cup competition that name eludes me at the present moment. In the Champions League I got the dreaded task of facing Barcelona in the last 16 even after winning my group. But after a strong 2-1 loss at the Nou Camp I though my dreams were go when Barcelona went 1-0 up at home. If not for an amazing off the bench performance from Fred netting a hat-trick, which kept my hopes alive managing a 5-1 home win against Barcelona. But to my horror, I get put up against Arsenal in the Quarter Final. I figure that I have already done what was expected of me, I may as well throw caution to the wind in the home leg. Much to my delight we managed to cap an impressive performance with a 4-1 home win and then followed it strongly with a 3-2 lose at the Emirates, but it didn't matter as I had done the job and proceeded into the Semi's where we now face the mighty Man Utd. I'm not looking forward to that :< In other news Benzema has now reached 35 goals for the season and has 21 league goals. Which isn't amazing but for me, its good. Another problem I have started having is that I cannot manage to not only keep clean-sheets but I'm throwing away 2 goal advantages very cheaply. I have tried anything and everything to stop it, I have parked the bus, gone into overdrive attack mode, done nothing, put 10 defenders on and make them all defend, I have tried EVERYTHING but I just cant seem to (once it hits the 70th~ min mark) not let the opposition score. Its beginning to drive me insane. Anyhow, a fairly long post, but I thought I would go into a little story as I'm bored ^_^ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purefun Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Liam In that case i will just say a very good season. Intercept What season are you in? How much did Toulalon go for? Sankhare will be great. And offcourse i was right on Stancu. Piatti should be good enough to warm the bench and get a start now and than. Zeefuik if trained and played well will turn out excellent. Some nice results in the Cl mate. Stick with one tactic it will work. If you change to much it won't work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 purefun What i will say is that the players originally brought inseason 1 are now good enough to warrant 1st team places, so many selection headaches this season I think, I'm also trying to flog Keita for around £10m but nobody wants him n=because of work permits, his replacement will be Ronaldo or Messi.

liam_everton89 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Thought I'd upload a SS of my current squad, Gignac is at the bottom of the list but just off screen, Theres still about 20 out on loan aswell. They're all fairly well known really, only one you wont know is Pereira, he's 19 at the moment and attracting alot of interest from Jose Mourinho at Porto, a great back-up/stand in to Lloris. Any other SS's you'd like to see I'll gladly supply. EDIT In the time it's took to upload the picture I've had my bid for Messi accepted so hopefully he'll be our new, Right Mid.

liam_everton89 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Right ermm.. Interesting tactic. Did you downloaded it from the tacticsforum? If so what tactic was it? thx Yes, it's by ww2 fan I think, very good defensively and going forward, in total conceded 27 goals all last season, scored 100+. Only change I've made to it is having My AML and MR Swap positions. Who made an enquiry for Adrien and who bid for Keita and Saivet? Adrien is wanted by Blackburn, Sampdoria, Celta, Villareal, Fiorntina - that's just at the monet, alot have already been rejected. Keita has got Newcastle, Marseille, PSG, At Madrid bidding around the £7.5m mark for him, I wanted £10 but £7.5 is as high as anyone would go, not bad really. Saivet would be easier answered with who doesn't want him lol, I've re3jected lots but at the moment...

liam_everton89 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hm not sure what to do with Saivet really, He's not listed for loan or sale actually, his stats aint very good but he plays OK, I may hold onto him one more season if it doesnt wortk flog him to the highest bidder. Lionel Messi has now signed a deal with Olympique Lyonnais, the young midfield maestro signed an £80k p/w deal with the French champions after they activated his £43.5m release clause. The manager (me) said, he better bloody play well, cost me an arm and a leg. Fans were also overjoyed with the news as shirt sales took a huge boost with thousands buying replica shirts.

Jimbob_BCFC Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hi guys. I havent been on here for a while, but im back now. I lost interest as my Lyon Save was corrupted . Since then i went on to manage Birmingham (the team i support irl), and then after that i took nottingham forest to the prem from league 1, then accepted the Everton job. However, none has really matched the fun i had when playing as Lyon, plus everyone on this thread is always helpful. So lads, i was wonderig if you could refresh my memory on what the do's and dont's are in the first season, even if you could copy and paste from a previous post on what to do would be appreciated ie signings ect. Anyway, its good to be back, hope everybody in England is enjoying the Sunshine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 The sunshine is great, especially now I'm on nights, sun and all day in garden with a few Vodka's = Heaven. Anyways mate I'll just pass on basically what I was told by most on here... GK - Vercroute(sp?) will be fine until Coupet returns from injury. Defence - Jeremy Mathieu does a great job as stand in LB also versatile and can take over once Grosso gets abit older if needed. Samba is a steal and a must really for CB to partner Squillaci. Midfield - Try and flog Govou for his maximum (£7.5m min release clause) or re sign him without clause and then sell. I personally brought in Jeremy Menez for £10m aswell. Strikers - A back up is needed with Fred being injured to begin with, S.Grax is a good cheap option also you could try and loan Bojan who you'll presumably know all about. Youngsters - Go for the usual bunch, Saivet, Sakho, Sankhare, Benzerga, Wijnaldum, Adrien etc etc. Don't forget about some of the players already in your U-18's especially Abenzoar, he'll be top class. One thing you could try, see if you can get Armand Traore very cheap, I'm talking around £3m, I seen a thread recently where somebody did in the fiorst few weeks of the game and he becomes top, I paid £17m for him!! Hope this helps, If I think of anything else I'll let you know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Remember to ask the board for extra transfer funds also, you get about an extra £20m I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some nice results in the Cl mate. Stick with one tactic it will work. If you change to much it won't work. Still in season one, hence why Sankhere is still not amazing stat wise. But I know he will become a great player as I have him on my Arsenal save and he is keeping Denilson off the DM position. Toulalan went to Inter for £18.5m which allowed me to bring in Fernandez. Had only limited experience with Zeefuik in my Arsenal save (he is currently at Inter there) and his stats are amazing and he is worth a fortune, kinda why I quickly went and snatched him before any major club did. I'm hopping I can bring in Vicente as well, as he is transfer listed and I've had a £6.5m bid accepted, which means I can finally start letting Ben Arfa wonder in my formation (he is playing as a mostly out and out winger and doing well, but I know he is a much better attacking forward). The CL has surprised me and I'm really glad we got to the Semi's. Fred who has been lack-luster for me since he has come back from Injury is finally putting in some massive performances and giving Benzema a run for his money. About the formation. I'm not really going to change it. I'm sticking with it, as I'm getting the results, I'm not loosing but I'm not winning, which is what is bugging me. Nothing worse then leading 2-0 for the whole game, dominating the opposition and with one error and a wonder-strike they are back on level terms. But I guess thats football. Still looking for a solid goal-keeper, to replace Coupet (sp?) next season as I'm not convinced with his performances, but I'll leave it till the end of the season before I make drastic changes in that department. Otherwise, all is looking good and I'll hopefully be giving you another update in a few hours when I have completed the season. Oh another thing. I have Chris Eagles and Thiago Motta both coming in on free's (if nothing else, but to sell on for a few £?m). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purefun Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Liam Keep Saivet he is for some reason always wanted by topclubs. I don't understand it either but i rejected bids from +70 mil euro for a player who only played one full season with me only scoring 15 iirc. Messi He will be my next target in season eight. New stadium well i can only dream from it. The neighbourcommitee (sp) has just dismissed my new plans for expantion (sp). Jimbob Nice to welcome you back my friend. It was fun last time indeed. Lets bring those times back. Anyway the players that Liam suggested are all just fine. You could also buy Costil for later if you wish. Also Felipe (Udinese) for DC is an option. Def. get Bojan on loan so there is no need to buy another striker if you only play with one upfront unless you play with two than Grax is your answer. Intercept Sell them on mate not good enough for Lyon imo. GK : Frey, french and fantastic but oh so expensive.

westmarsh7 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Well i got ma first friendly now so going to have that now then go huntiong for my players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intercept Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Purefun Well I would love to agree with you. Eagles has already gone back to the Premier on a season long loan to Sunderland with a £6.75m buyout on the end. But I'm not going to offload Thiago Motta just yet. Friendlies he has done the business in the middle of the park, so I'm not complaining. However, the main reason I'm not willing to let him go just yet, is cause he is on a £18,500p/w contract for 3 years and Keita and Kallstrom have both just gone out the window. I'm beginning to hate my Chairman. Keita went for £15~ million and Kallstorm for £14.75 with clauses (I didn't see what those were as the board accepted for me). So I'm slightly skint in the middle of the park for back-up. So I'm going to hold onto him for a season before I let him go. Although Ederson looks quite promising in the middle to take over the rotation business with Ben Arfa as my AMC. Anyhow, with the French Champions Cup (I think) just over and me drilling a lackluster PSG into the ground 2-0 (Ben Arfa double) I have about £40 million to spend and a mid-field that needs a little love. Mostly looking into a new versatile winger (probably Nani, but ill blow my budget on him then) and a central mid-fielder (Barry is looking tempting with me managing to unsettle him).

Purefun Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Intercept Could you post a s.s. of Nani? If you can get Anderson (Manu) he is great, Jimenez offcourse, Matty, Gouffran, Gourcuff, Adrien (the portugese one), Belluschi are some other players ... Barry isn't of top-CL standard imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intercept Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 purefun Nani - After looking at his price, I'm actually tempted to go after him (unsettle him and try and get him cheaper). Only reason I said it would blow my budget was cause Inter got him for £37.5m in my Arsenal save. Still not entirely sure, but I need to strengthen my mid-field before I go headlong into this campaign. I know Barry isn't top-CL standard, but he is cheap and he is effective. Easily replaceable but a very solid player. Or at least he is in my Arsenal save for Villa. Will probably need to poke around a bit more to find the ideal replacement as most of your recommended are now with new clubs and unwilling to negotiate contracts.

Purefun Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Intercept Have a look at Biglia from Anderlecht. Lulinha is very good even at a young age. Do you have Menez already?
