Gooner88 Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Brighton get about 3 million, its a great game because everything is in place to build a great team with the new stadium and really good chairman.

5legend Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I've rounded down my choices of starting a new save with down to a few teams but I'm stuck on choosing out of these couple of teams: Gladbach, Bordeaux, Parma, Zaragoza, Ajax and CSKA Moscow.

SRL88 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 Out of those I would go with Gladbach. They have quite a young team, plus ter Stegen . Germany is a very fun league to manage in as well. Any one from 8 or 9 teams is in with a shout of winning the league (not including Gladbach), so you could be in for a bit of competition which could make for a very fun long term save .

Anyone have any experience with any of these teams? I'm mainly looking for a team where I can help build up into a dominate force in their respective country and Europe. Gladbach - Had a save with these, didn't get very far but i'm not sure why because they have all the things I usually like. Great young core to the squad (Stegen - best young keeper in the game, Nordveit, Reus and a few more all exceptional), good history, strong training & youth facilities. Bordeaux - Really don't appeal to me. Lots of very average players on above average wages. In my opinion will take a lot of work to compete at the top of that division. Parma - Attractive squad (Galloppa, Giovinco, Crespo etc) and a club playing a bit below the level where it should be. Could be fun. Zaragoza - Don't know much about. Spain is a fun league though. Ajax - Too easy in that league. CSKA Moscow - Great squad and finances. Full of goals, decent level of competition in the league and potential to compete in europe. Another good-sounding game. For me, I'd be choosing between Gladbach, CSKA and Parma. Hope that helped a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a great save with Udinese and Gladbach, and would highly recommend. Gladbach have no money for the 1st season though, in my experience. I won the Scudetto with Udi in my first season with the original squad(plus Jensenn and Kara in January), and got 3rd in my 1st season with Gladbach, again the original squad. My current save is with Monaco. It's great fun, although financially challenging. Relying on loans and frees is good though, because it means you're not stuck with mediocre players on long contracts while you make your way up. Ligue 2, incidentally. A sleeping giant.

With a -6 point deduction makes for a good challenge and they have a good squad to build on. If you're wanting to play 4312 though you might have to retrain Schelotto to right-back.

With a new stadium, you should be able to receive a healthy gate receipt.

Deportivo Alavés in Spain's Segunda 'B2' division. They once reached the dizzy heights of the Liga BBVA, managing to do the double over Barça, before managing to achieve a runner-up position in the following season's UEFA Cup tournament, losing to Liverpool in the Final. Their rise to the Liga BBVA, before gradually stooping to lowly Segunda 'B2' standing; I have no personal experience with them at all, but I would think it would be fun to regain their La Liga status, and potentially better on their previous record, which was to come runner-up in the Europa League.

serek Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Ok I hope this is how it works Here goes. Nation: any. Strongly prefer Europe, and possibly a nation with good reputation. Division: top. Can be second, but would need very strong rep and great finances European Competition: doesn't matter Media Prediction: doesn't matter Board Expectation(s): also not important Transfer Budget: at least 3 million pounds Wage Budget: at least 20% left, without asking board for more Finances: positive bank balance. Doesn't have to be rich at game start, but needs fluid finances Other: must be a league with not too many games per season so I don't need to have a large squad to keep everyone fit. And MOST IMPORTANTLY: no stupid league match restrictions. Stuff like "only X foreign players" in Russia is out of the question. Work permit is fine, severly limiting my player choices isn't.
