SCIAG Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I know who I want as my strikers, and I'm just going to get rubbish back-ups . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_296 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 How did I manage to leave myself with £17 million, especially when I did the midfielders bids with the fact that I had £90 million in mind. My midfields really good though so think I'll be playing 4-3-3 when I choose my managers favourite formation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My midfields really good though so think I'll be playing 4-3-3 when I choose my managers favourite formation. I presume with 2 of the forwards as wingers, otherwise it would be a bit silly!

Robert_296 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 haha yeah. Will go with Alonso, Hamsik and Modric in midfield and then Farfan and Silva as wingers but then I leave Fernandez out :/ Oh well, there is something called rotation.

PluckaDuck Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 So we can chose a favoured formation Robert? If so great news for me, Pack the defence and Midfielders and spend a few quid on a great poacher up front! Cornwall Cannon's for Champions! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert_296 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 yeah at the end of the bidding you create managers with their abilities, favoured formations etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCIAG Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Robert- I know this may sound quite complicated and very time consuming, but can we set our favourred starting XI? You could then simulate it by changing players' reputation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Zhivago Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Done my bids, I'll put some managerial details in before the start of the next round unless ssetig shows up (In which case I'll berate him for spending so much on his defence...)!

el sid Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I think I might have to play with 1 up front as well and pack the midfield. Palombo, Flamini and Deco with Zhirkov and Rosina/Jonas on the wings. With a proper manager, this could work Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeeman27bob Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 My predicted line up GK: Carson DL: Behrami DC: Ramos DC: Squillaci DR: Rafinha DMC: Mascherano MC: Hargreaves MC: Van der Vaart AMR: Elano AML: Simao FC: Who knows? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Sorry i'm confused. How would that work? We tell you who we would like to be starting. You set those players to high current reputations in the editor, making sure that you edit down the CRs of the other players. The players with the highest CRs get selected by the AI managers. That's how it can be set that a certain player gets in the squad, even though another one is deemed "better" by the researcher. It can be useful if a player has fallen out with the manager, for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert_296 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 ugh He could have posted in this thread.

Robert_296 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 erm I guess he could yes but then he would have to send in a new set of bids as he would have a different budget. That ok with you Dr. Zhivago? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
