liam_everton89 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Aah cheers purefun, will keep an eye on him then, already made my transfer now though, signed Obertan for £8.5m (His min fee release clause), Everton wanted £22m for Menez!!!. I'll get an end of season/start of new season update up sometime today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ville Valo Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Ligue 1's a bit easy tbh Played 15, won 14 and drew 1. 2nd in my CL group, beat Celtic and Fenerbache, but after a disasterous 1st half, we lost 5-2 to Madrid. Fred's back from injury That means I have Delgado Godoy, Fred, Benzema, Briand and Bojan, not bad imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Ligue 1 gets harder mate, the French teams will start rivalling you in Europe to, I had to Beat PSG in the Champs League Semis this season, they beat AC Milan and Barca iirc to get there. Need help guys, it's silly season in the game and bids are flying in all over the place, Chelski bid £13.75m for Bodmer, who scored 37 goals last season lol! obviously that amount is laughable so I negotiated so he didnt get upset. Now they've cam back with... £13.5m upfront 50% sell on fee Buy back Price £20.5m £40m after 1 int appearance. So really I could get him back for £10m Worth selling and then getting him back? Buying him back would mean I couldnt buy anyone else that season because of the rules I set myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purefun Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 No don't sell you still need to replace him now!! Maybe if the upfront fee was higher though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Yeah i've rejected now, if I wasnt sticking to these rules I probably weould of accepted in a flash tbh, then brought him back next season, £40m+ profit for a season long loan, Obertan is settling well in pre-season, thanks for the recommendation, in the end Menez went to Chelski for £27m so I couldn't get him.

liam_everton89 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Should also add that from having a look at the players who's contracts are signing I can pretty much **** PSG up by taking some of there players, these all have contracts expering so I could get them for free come December 31st.. Sakho - Nothing needs to be said anout him Didier Digard - Looks a handy DC/DM to have around Sankhare - Great DM but with Cana, Flamini, Bodmer and Mathieu not much need. Charles itandje - Coupet is over the hill now, so may be worth a look although I have signed a free GK, all be it not the best Costil could also be free along with Gavanon, I love the free players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 tomtuck Where did you get those real competition names from? I've had a search but can't find it anywhere, the search function on here is crap though, thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purefun Posted June 7, 2008 Author Share Posted June 7, 2008 Liam I would sign them all tbh. And Sankhare should outshine everybody at DM position in you are on 8.02. (imo) You could still sell a few of them and make a nice profit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep an eye on all the tournaments, Euro's, World Cup African Nations, After they've finished you'll sometimes get a message of all the managers that have been sacked, or check the jobs screen if you miss the news Item, obviously they can be sacked at other times but these are the most likely. And all you do is click apply, when offered the job you don't lose yours you just control both, I think international management is something that needs alot of work on in the game, it's annoying how every week you get a message askin what game you'd like to watch, and the fact you can hire staff but they have no actual role there, like you cant train them.

Just ask anybody playing/played in here. In my game France usually have the last four teams in last eight in Uefa (PSG, Rennes and Le Mans have won it) and usually two in last eight in Cl sometimes three. So to conclude for some reason the french comp. becomes the best around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 New formation is working well, I'm being adventurous with 3 at the back. New GK I signed for free is *************** crap, so Vercoutre is in goal for now, Obertan is brilliant coming off the bench! Scored in most games from ther, Bodmer is still being ridiculously good and has scored in every game so far, if he scores more than 40 this season I'll pay him £100k p/w. Also he rejected AC Milan for me <3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Season 2 Review/Update thingy Only a few SS's, I've started season 3 so cant access all the stats etc Transfers Fixtures - 1 Fixtures - 2 Fixtures - 3 Ligue 1 Orange Champions Trophy 4th Round Coupe De Ligue - Again!!! French Cup Euro Super Cup Champions League - Vidic in goal for last 10 minutes lol Club World Championship Thrashing ^^^ Looking at Bodmers stats in his sitory, brilliant for an MC!! Start of Season 3 Just my signings really Transfers First team squad Le guen said pre match that PSG would take over Lyon's dominance in France - Yeah right **** off Think tha's it really, any SS's you'd like to see or questions answered then just ask. purefun I've uploaded these to the maximum size it'd let me so hopefully you can see them lol.

liam_everton89 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 purefun I'm already on photobucket, will use pictiger to please you lol, i like using SS's for the updat to, easier than writing it out, although thats no where near like the one that I put my whole squad in lol, about 70+ in there. jonahno6 Look at Gavanon, not the youngest but a very good Juninho replacement, and cheap.

jonahno6 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I went for Meireles in the end. Cost me 11.75m. He looked better then Gavanon and is younger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_everton89 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 OK then, In January I'll be on the look out for 3 new players on free transfer deals, I want a GK, looking at Costil and Itandje(sp) at the moment, costil the prefered option Another CB, Sakho looking likely, unhappy, wants to move and likes me telling him he'll be a star. Lastly another CM I think or a ST, Saivet was available until Marseille brought him so hopefully will get a young CM to eventually replace Toulalan but provide cover for now, looks likely to be Arnold Mvuemba Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

liam_everton89 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Lol I'm in the middle of my 3rd season and have only spent £14m on 8 players. Will likely jump to £24m at the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonahno6 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I have Jose Bosingwa coming in for 2.8m at the end of the season. He was transfer listed at Chelsea.

Purefun Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 Jonah Thx for the ss. Looks a good player overall tbh but you maybe overpaid him imo. Is that chelsea player any good?

glory utd Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Dunno what to do in my game. I have gone crashing out of the CL and don't feel enthusiastic about my side as much now. Would like to leave, but only to the right team. Would love either Milans or Barca or Madrid. Though I doubt I'll get an offer so I'll most likely be staying with Lyon for another year. Saying that, the board haven't offered a contract yet! Anyway, will be in France until Friday which will give me some time away from FM and maybe come back into it with more enthusiasm.
