Well basically did this game a few months ago and I have just decided to come back to it and I might as well update you on how I'm doing and what you guys think I can do to improve.

I took a few too many screenshots so you can see them all here: Album Guest Password= atletico

Basically I won the league first season with ease, with me also picking up the Uefa cup and Spanish Cup as well. Seemed to have a run of playing French teams in Europe, with me having the French national manager at all of them and while he may not have seen much of the other teams players it gave my CB a chance to become a fully fledged Starter for France (Armand) with him going from 0 caps too 11 and 2 goals.

Group Stage Atleti 5:1 Bordeaux

1st Knockout Atleti 5:0 FC Sochaux

2nd Knockout Atleti 5: 1 Stade Rennais FC

SMF Atleti 8:0 Marseille

Also a very good season for Forlan, Aguero and Maxi Rodriguez with:

Aguero 51 Goals 21 Assists 18 MOM and Numerous Awards (from midfield)

Forlan 27 Goals 12 Assists 5 MOM with only 32 starts (out of something like 60)

Maxi 42 Goals 21 Assists 14 MOM and Numerous Awards (From midfield)

Hoping to buy Torres at some point as he is someone who should at the club and so any strikers are only here for maybe one or two seasons.

Anyway all the information is in the screenshots and would like some information on best tactic to use with squad or players i could bring in to improve it or any other suggestions. Also if any specific info is required I will provide it.

Aguero was injured for about 5 months of the season so not too bad

Gonna be looking on bringing a few yth in to the 1st team next season assistant manager says Camacho is gonna be a leading player in the future and Pichu Atienza will be a good one

Started with Atletico from a savegame just after I finished my first season with them on 8.0.2. Came 4th in that season and won the UEFA cup, but it's very hard to hang on to my players. Already lost Maxi on a free to ManUtd. Chairman sold Aguero for 59M euros, and I got offers for Forlan (25M) and R. Garcia (35M) I couldn't refuse...

Will keep Pablo, A. Lopez and Leo Franco, but it'll take the better part of the transfer window to rebuild my squad. Hopefully the team will gel quickly.

It's been a very busy transfer window between the first and second season, especially since I already lost Maxi and my chairman found 59M euros too good an offer to refuse for Aguero, who I really was hoping to keep.

Transfers out

Maxi free (ManUtd)

Ze Castro 7,5M (Man City)

Cleber Santana 3,8M (Villareal)

R. Garcia 35M (Valencia)

Forlan 25M (Inter)

Aguero 59M (Juve)

Transfers in

Aquilani 16M

Chretien 6,25M

Coloccini 8,75M

Cavani 22M

Palacio 21M

Costil 3,1M

L. Jimenez 5M

Flamini 11,25M

Miguel Veloso 25,5M

Adriano 15M (Inter)

Total in: 134M

Total out: 130M (all in euros)

All in all only spend 4M on transfers, although the combined signing on fees for the transfers will probably be quite a hefty sum. Right now I'm playing a 4-3-3 with a frontline of Palacio - Adriano - Simao. Won the Super cup 3-2 against Barca, but lost the European Super cup 0-2 to them. Played 6 games in La Liga, sitting top, one point above Valencia and Zaragoza. So far, so good.
