valityr Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Club: Real Betis Division: La Liga Transfer Budget: ~2.5mil I think. (I got it up to 20mil starting my 3rd season, bought Veloso & Vidal) Key Players: Rafael Sóbis, Lima, Ricardo. Good Points: Incredible offense. Relatively large stadium, low expectations to start with. Bad Points: Terrible R/LBs, takes a while to get going. Stadium nearly always 10,000 short of capacity. Additional info: I'm into my 4th season in this and it's brilliant, came 3rd last year ahead of Barca and rivals Sevilla after being predicted to come 8th. Sóbis is a machine, has scored 35+ in all competitions each season. Club: Werder Bremen League: Bundesliga Transfer Budget: 3.5mil Key Players: Diego, Markus Rosenberg, Hugo Almeida, Torsten Frings, Naldo, Mertesacker. Good Points: Terrific all round really, Almeida and Rosenberg are goal machines if used correctly. Bad Points: High expectations with relatively low transfer budget, you can raise funds by selling excess players though. Relatively small stadium. Additional Info: Rosenberg & Almeida traded the league's top scorer for the 4 seasons i played this before i accidentaly deleted it. Never stop scoring if you use the right tactics. If you hadn't guessed my favourite colour's green. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomtuck01 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Can somebody suggest me a new game to begin? Recently I have started games with Manchester United, but could only manage 1 season before getting bored, and then AC Milan, a game which lasted 3 seasons, winning every trophy each besides the missing out on the Italian Cup once. I dont want something like dafuge's Challenge, just something a bit different. I dont want to be in England as watching that all season makes it a bit dull playing FM in the English league, and not in Italy. I also have a long-term Lyon game that is ongoing, so I dont want to be in the French League. Any other suggestions I am open to!! GPTG, help me!!

tomtuck01 Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Thanks for the suggestion jonahno, but Ive decided to start with Real Zaragoza. I have been editing my database to keep up to date with transfers, and have sorted all promotion/relegation in Europes top leagyes, so Im in Spains 2nd division with them. I have little money, and have had to sell some quality players to bring otherss in. Like I said, thanks for the suggestion nevertheless. I did listen to you a bit though; I am playing in Spain!

NDBrennan Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Club: Napoli Divison: Serie A Transfer Budget: €8 million Key players: Fabiano Santacroce, Marek Hamsik, Manuele Blasi, Ezequiel Lavezzi Good Points: Some excellent young players (Lavezzi, Hamsik, Gargano, Santacroce), Board living in reality (low expectations), Massive Stadium & Fan Base, Top Training facilities. Bad Points: Worrying lack of cohesion in squad, Full backs are poor, Goalie is dodgy, Midfield needs more depth.

Scott1990 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Club: New England Revolution Division: MLS Budget: 94736 (taken from editor) Key PLayers: Twellman, Joseph, Reis, Parkhurst, Ralston, Albright The Good: You have one of the best goalkeepers (Reis), one of the best defenders (Parkhurst), one of the best midfielders (Joseph) and aruguably the best striker in MLS (Twellman). No real weaknesses in the squad. Huge stadium that you will never fill. The bad: You have no money, both transfer-wise and wage-budget-wise, aging squad, many players underrated, your better players will likely be bought by European teams. Additional Info: In typical Boston fashion, the Revs have made it to the MLS final in at least 3 different occasions but have failed to win- including the past two years.
