Guys i need 2 good young CBS for around £25m for two of em.

Im getting rid of Toure hes been useless for me.

Garay, Lescott and Breno ... any two of them will cost less that £25m i think ... Breno has a £9m release clause i think and Lescott cost Tottenham in my game £10m ... icon14.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

David Luiz I'd also add. Only cost me 7m.

Hes gone need a RW now.

Saivet becomes lethal in the second season and you could probably start him in the first. He's started two games for me this season and scored 5 goals. Against Man United and FB Bayern. My other RW asive from van Persie (Traitor icon_wink.gif) is Menez who I really suggest--had a great last year but has been away on International Duty so far.

Closing down is on 6.

What's up with the posession?

Knoc, you still playing a more attacking formation for that match? I was getting pretty similar results on the demo with an attacking formation, practically zip possession, and closing down was about 6 (middle range) too...

but on the demo, I was also coughing up a LOAD of chances on goal too...

It seems that this Arsenal team really suffers from quality finishers? I'm not seeing much good news coming from Ade and Eduardo as strikers (although the way Ade finishes in real life, that's probably accurate)...

Keep the updates coming lads, I'm enjoying it. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I've started playing more direct now which is probably one of the causes of the low posession. Still, my defence must be ok if Birmingham only manage one off-target shot with 60% posession.

I'm still on the demo, can;t get the full game till after half term because ive got to use half-term to revise for mey GCSE mocks icon_mad.gif and even after half-term i wont play on it much for the same reason, any way my team doin well so far, approaching the end of December. 2nd in the league behind Chelsea, Liverpool were in the relegation zone last time i checked icon_cool.gif and things are going pretty well. This was only going to be a demo game to start with so the following transfers are pretty buggered up, you'll be amazed at my stupidity icon_confused.gif

In:

Van der Vaart - 11.5m (best signing icon_biggrin.gif)

Aaritalo - 50k (half-decent)

Ignashevich - Free (vice-captain)

Samba - 2.3m (breaking into the first team)

Zeefuik - 160k (reserves, playing well)

Thicot - 575k (fans hate him, half decent stats for a 20 year old though)

Saivet - 450k (performing well in the reserves)

Banega - 3.6m (Good back up so far, played a handful of games)

Marcelo - 5.5m (amazing, most assists by a mile, plays awesome where i've put him. To think, i nearly didnt try to buy him)

Kanoute - 17.25m (thought i needed a striker and they rejected my first couple of bids so i went straight for the release clause)

Future transfers in:

Vagner Love - 5m

Zarate - 2.8m

Micheal Johnson - 11.25

Alex - 240k

This is were it gets bad and stupid

Out:

Robin Van Persie - 11.25m

Tomas Rosicky - 12m

Alexandre Song - 4.1m

My team/tactic is:

GK - Fabianski/Lehmann

CB - Samba/Ignashevich

CB - Toure/Thicot

CB - Gallas/Senderos

WBR - Eboue/Sagna

WBL - Marcelo/Clichy/Traore

CM (defensive) - Diaby/Gilberto

CM (normal) - Fabregas/Hleb

AM - Van der Vaart

TS - Kanoute/Adebayor/Aaritalo

FC - Walcott/Eduardo

Centre mid running back to defensive mid, Diaby has stolen this position of Gilberto

Both Wing-backs running to AMR/L

Van der Vaart highest scorer by far

Marcelo most assists by far

Walcott is amazing at beating everyone effortlessly, shame he can't shoot

all strikers are on the same level atm. Hope Love can raise that level.

just beat Spurs 4-1 icon_biggrin.gif

anyways, back to geography revision icon_frown.gificon_mad.gificon13.gif

Hello

I have finally decided to buy the game and im thouroughly enjoying it even though I have only done a few months.

This is how my squad looks.

GK-Akinfeev £20mill + £10mill over 18months

RB-Sagna

LB-Clichy

CB-Gallas/Senderos

CB-Toure

AMR-Hleb/Walcott

AML-Van persie/Rosicky/Menez 12.25mill

CM-Fabregas/Rosciky

CM-Miguel Veloso £11.25mill/Diaby

ST-Adebayor/Bendtner

ST-Eduardo/Van Perise

I also brought is Sakho on a free from PSG as he looks promising and i have loaned him out to Caen as I feel he will play there and get experirience.

Fixtures so far

Aston Villa 1 - 3 Arsenal

Toulousse 1 - 2 Arsenal Champs league Qual.

Man City 2 - 2 Arsenal

They are my results so far not incuding friendlies and my squad is looking good apart from i have like 25 shots per game and only hit the target like 11 times. Is this normal?

Also Bendtner is out for 7moths with a viral infection with im annoyed at.

Any help on the squad and who to but or tactics ?

Thanks

I will keep posting here icon_smile.gif
