In fairness, they were pretty hot picking up Saivet and Sakho for me.

well go by instinct unless a player looks crap. you know sakho saivet and kroos will become amazing! they are -10's so you dont even need to listen.

if you insist on using scouts then usually they think your players are a tiny bit worse than they turn out to be so if they say good then usually wil become great.

I always listen to my scouts, they can spot weeknesses, especially if they say a player is injury prone, was going to sign Messi before but scout said he was injury prone and was he right, checked Messi's injury history, he had like 25 injuries in the last 4 years.

thanks for the tips.

what do you mean they are -10s?

he cheat's icon_wink.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Checking a players potential ability in the editor is cheating but I never do that. Is starting a game all over considered cheating? Because I have done that many times because you then know which players are good.

its not exactly cheating knowing that the player is a -10 that doesnt mean anything if a player is a -9 then they could end up being crap but you wouldnt know that. i only use in game editors miniscouts when playing with big clubs because its boring you might aswell buy the best because your going to win the league whatever so why not use it.

Ronaldo's form at the mo

played 12 games scored 12 and 6 assists icon_biggrin.gif

He'll never outshine the real life Ronaldo though, but I hope in FM 2009 he is the best player in the game by miles. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

he should be by far

Once Aguero has been bought, has anyone ever been able to buy him off his new team? I just lost him to Inter Milan even though I offfered 20k more a week and 5k more a game.

Also, what do people think about Soldado and Briand on 8.0.2? Soldado is 4* so looks good but not sure about Briand.

btw, i tried to bid for benzema and lyon came back with 105m. haha

Good deal for Tevez and nice to see Rossi back at Man United.. lets hope it happens irl icon_smile.gif

Benzema's really hard to get for a realistic price.

yea! hes back, and tbh with my squad.. i feel much more confidence in winning with rossi in it. likes of aguero and rooney miss easy chances too much.

just unsettle benzema, but im happy with rossi, bojan is coming on a free! woohoo. just need a first choice leftback to take over evra. in 2011

I've just had offers accepted for Ustari and Akinfeev. Which one should I accept? I'm only in the second year and I'm also on 8.0.1.

Thanks.

Your squad looks very strong.

The only position you are lacking in is DM.
