SZJ - I was a fan of your tactic some months ago. Just getting back into FM and got a new laptop so I don't have it anymore. Could you e-mail it to me or post it in here? Do you have a new 1 too? I'd have a bash at using your latest version too...

Here's how my season is going icon_frown.gif

33 games in and sitting in 6th. Team has been conceding stupid goals and not being clinical enough on front of goal. I've also been horrifically unlucky with injuries.

Sold Kuyt to Wham for 12.5 mil and got rid of Pennant for 4 mil to SundIreland. Brought in Aguero for 11.5 mil initially and 20 million after 30 appearances.

Transfers I have due to happen are Alonso to Inter for 27.5, Aurelio to Betis 3.6. So now I'm considering who to buy come the summer to shore up the team. Here's my starting 11 now.

GK: Reina

DR: Rafinha

DL: Riise

DC: Carra

DC: Agger

DMC: Masch

MC: Gerrard

AMC: Fernandez

AMC: Van der Vaart

AMC: Aguero

FC: Torres

Suggestions?

I have had Gerrard in the AMC position but he wasn't really doing it for me. He seems to be contributing alot more in MC.

I'll have a look at Zaccardo, been hankering after D. Alves but I'm guessing he'd be the same deal as Rafinha, too attacking?

Another update.

Lost out on Zaccardo to Barca, sold Arbeloa for 9,25 mil and then Roma bid 20 million for Lucas and my chairman accepted it. So now I gotta buy good young back up for Mascherano and Gerrard.

AC have also bid 19.25 million + Pirlo for Reina, should I accept and buy Akinfeev or someone similiar?

Is it possible to not win the league i the first 2 years and keep the job?

I challenged last year but won nothing.

Im challenging this year...(2 point of top) but not sure if i will win. And they havent offered me a new contract yet.

im i the fa cup final but went out of champs league early (first knock out)

What you think of my chances of a new contract?

Very unlikely if you don't win the league in 2 seasons mate.

my.php?image=season0910mk3.jpg

Agger wants a new challenge should i sell him?

Arsenal are stupidly good on the game, and even worse, stupidly rich.

I'd sell Agger, there's better out there- Sakho should be good enough to take his place now, just started my 6th season and he's my first choice center back- even look at Vidal, i've posted a few screenshots higher up the page. You'll still get about 7-12 mill for Kuyt, so sell him.

i like the look of Vidal, sakho is coming along excellent i've gave him plenty of games and hes done well!!!

is that omid zaferani a regen? he looks awsome!!

yeah, zaferani's a regend.

definitely strengthen your attack, take note of Pacheco, couple of years he could become your leading striker. Look at Pandev, Pazzini, Berbatov (regarding you have the money) and maybe Adriano. Saivet, IMO, isn't good enough yet.

Saviet will get more of a chance now as i'me selling kuyt

i gave pacheco a few sub apperencs and he scored one goal in the champions league group stage looks real promising!!!

do ever get bruna to develop into a good player?

i like the look of ayew he would cost me 9mil

i have scouted vidal and he would also cost 9mil provided i cant get enouhg for agger i will get him as the replacement!!!

Just won the Prem in my first season: W25 D6 L7, +80 -36.

Played a ridiculously attacking formation.

GK Reina

LB Rise / Aurelio

CB Agger / Sakho

CB Carra / Breno

RB Finnan / Arbeloa

CM Masch / Sissoko [Tracking back]

CM Gerrard / Lucas

AML Fernandez / Benayoun

AMR Babel

ST Torres (24 goals in prem)

ST Briand (18 goals in prem) / Kuyt / Saivet

Not sure what to do for next season. Probably get a fullback (or two) and a left mid, and possibly a striker.

Good first season, although I lost twice to Wigan. icon_smile.gif

What you think of my chances of a new contract?

Yes it's possible. However you need to win something else instead, something big - like champions league. I've have a liverpool save where I did'nt win the PL for 3 years but won CL instead. I got a new contract and the board was pleased. However they still wanted me to win the PL at the end of a two-year plan...

But since you've been knocked out of CL it doesn't look good. Not sure a FA or LC win will be enough. Good luck though.

AMC: Gerrard

AMC: Van der Vaart

AMC: Aguero

ST: Torres

Isn't Aguero a ST not AMC? Are they playing wide as well? Try using Gerrard to play through balls, and let Torres run on to them.
