Wow, this thread has exploded since I quit to do my exams. Anyway, not posted since page 50 or so, but I've managed to find a little time to finish my 3rd season.

The squad is fantastic, don't think I'm really going to need any changes for the championship, although I'm sure to lose my best players again as they seem to get sold every season.

Heres the results:

Here's the Squad:

Both more than happy to come as long as I guarenteed promotion, and paid them rather large apperance fees.

I spent around 6m getitng the tweo of them though (pretty much the entire budget)...got 5m for selling my great winger to plymouth (board accepted over my head).

holidayed like the last 8 games or so since i can't await to get to league 1. icon_wink.gif lost the JPT final to leeds 0-2. totally undeserved. we dominated them in 1st half but were unlucky not to score. lafferty scored two quick goal for leeds after HT and that was it.

Hi starting as Oxford as it looks great. Who will I sign, who will I sell?

nice Frazza Pee! welcome mate!

GK: Get someone on loan (Edwards was good for me, also Forecast)

DR: Loans are the best option if you want another try Zakuani or Chris Riley on loan.

DL: Paul Tierney comes highly recommended, also Ludovic Mary from some obscue French team as well as Cristian Fernandez. Also Cristea if you can get him.

DC: Sabic is fab. Andrei Cordos and Mehdi Makhloufi would also be good signings. Loans also great eg. Leigh Mills

MR: Salomonsson is a must buy, good enough for the Championship imo. Get him and you're sorted.

ML: Johnatan Estrada can come in Jan after his loan finishes and comes highly recommended. Ditto Robin Nylen and Erik Grendel.

MC: Soley is fantastic, scores heaps from the corner bug as well. Devineau is another French youngster. Magnus Svensson is old but still pretty good. Boubacar Balde has also been great and can also play right wing or upfront. Loans are very useful, Maghoma and Josh Wright are great ones.

FC: Loans are fantastic here for first season. Harsanyi, Coulson, Ebanks-Blake and Charlie Sheringham all rip up the BSP. Permanently David Faderne and Bas Savage are good as well. When you get into League 2 Ganea is god! Sburlea also good.

Get a parent club as well: good luck! Smile Thumbs Up

thats the list that Matt has compiled during the thread. if needing any more help just ask.

just make sure you pack out with loans!

Ebanks Blake!!

here's my squad for the 2nd season. the board gave me just €1.1M for transfers so i'll bring in some loans. still there are some players left who'll be sorted out like ledgister, murray, blomkvist, ibrakovic, maybe nylen.

bawbag, great decision rejecting the offer mate, United has got nothing on Oxford! icon_biggrin.gif

As for the MR Salomonsson was great for me even in League 1, only lost his place in the Champonship cos of Lulinha but Sburlea can do a great job there. icon14.gif

Tom, should have copyrighted that list. icon_wink.gif

jaaaws, I would say a new DM would be good, and seeing as you can't get Bernardo and your squad is pretty young I would suggest getting someone experienced in for the time being, look around the Premiership reserves for the best options. Also maybe a loan to cover at DC and if you sell Ibrakovic then a loan at DR as well.

I would keep Nylen btw, his versatility will come in useful and he's much better than the coaches say he is.

GK: Jourdren

DR: Dembele

DL: Tierney (defensive)/Dubarbier (attacking)

DC: Chalwe

DC: Sabic

DMC: Soley

DMC: New signing

AMC: Salomonsson

AMC: Scanell

AMC: Puri (new signing if he's not good enough, maybe a loan)

FC: GANEA!

You should breeze past the league. Good luck icon_smile.gif

Craig:

GK: Scribe, Makriadze, Jourdren, Czaplinski

DL: Tierney, Dubarbier

MR: What's wrong with Salomonsson? icon_wink.gif Try Grendel or Nylen

ST: Seeing as you can't afford Ganea, try Musasa, Agouda, Sburlea or maybe a loan again.

Good luck mate. icon14.gif

I think i am going to be ok. 11 games in and i am top of the league. Tomi Ameobi + Harsayni upfront for me and they are both working a treat.

Also managed to sign a RB, Erik Lund for back up on a free, Constantine on a free, Rhys Taylor + Tiawo on loan from parent club chelsea, Scott mcleish on a free, Maghoma on loan, John Bateman as a back up keeper.

3.7M in bank balance now, Wohoo!

ypresfr thanks, very helpful. right before the first league game i got my transfers sorted. here they are:

transfersqw0.jpg

And Eino Puri has been doing very well in the preseason friendlies. In 6 apps the bagged 3 goals and got 5 assists.

maybe i'll get one more striker on loan, since im playing a tactic with 2 strikers. that's why i brought in bent for free as a backup. sean scannell could play upfront as well but i'm not sure if he's doing well there.

Nice signings Craig, you'll be fine. icon14.gif

jaaaws, no problem mate. Andronic and Mills are all the backup you need for DC so there is now fine. Is one of the new signings a DMC? Sorry don't know Laurant and the unfortunately named Randy Rustenberg! icon_razz.gif

Share on other sites

Yep, Laurant ist a DMC. Need only one as a backup for Soley.

laurantsv7.jpg

Randy Rutenberg is a backup for Tierney since i'm playing Dubarbier as an AML.

I'm really satisfied with the squad now. Especially the DCs Mills, Andronic, Chalwe and Sabic are all amazing.

My first XI will prob. look like this

GK: Jourdren (Czaplisnki)

DR: Dembelé (Ibrakovic) - Dembelé is chased by some bigger clubs from France like Monaco etc.

DL: Tierney/Rutenberg

DC: Mills (Sabic)

DC: Chalwe (Andronic)

MC: Soley (Laurant/S. Puri)

AML: Dubarbier (Salem/Galkauskas) Galkauskas is a very talented regen

AMR: Salomonsson/Scannell (Nylen)

AMC: E. Puri/Scannell

ST: Ganea

ST: Musasa (Bent)

Transfers

i also managed to get in a couple of regens, look pretty decent :

Hristiyan Petrov

And this lad:

Madalin Lohan

Definetely think he could become a quality player, certainly Petrov is ready for first team football, what you think guys?

hey Thandui welcome mate! well not sure really i had alot of success with my tactic playing a 4-5-1 with a DM and 2 attacking wingers. a 4-4-2 works well in the BSP and League two though, should be okay with any tactic tbh.

jessboi looking good mate shouldnt be too long until you get it.

Guess League 1 will be another walkover. after 10 games sitting on top of the standings with 8-1-1.

Carling Cup: currently round 4 vs blackburn rovers after defeating premier league side sunderland on the 3rd on pens

JPT: 2nd round vs northampton town.

Musasa has been immense so far. Ganea is not the star on my team as in your games btw. guess he is too slow for my tactic (that's why musasa gets most of the goals).

jaaws great result icon14.gif i agree ganea isnt really that fast but i think his technical ability and finishing is better than musasa, i cuurently have mazzola holding a first team place, although i tend to rotate between him and ganea

I sold musasa for 250k to stoke, was i ripped off lol

Need help again, Or dont i?

Well i am into League 1.. Wohoo.. Back to back promotions feels good.

2x GKs.

Future LB, CB + RB

LM

CM

craig well dun ate, im 5 games away from league one, in terms of goalkeepers i would recommend:

Johnny Lund(leeds)

Anthony Scribe

LB i tend to struggle with, have a look for some regens icon14.gif

you mat already have him but Jose San Roman for right back

wellington of sao paulo is amazing for me, highly recommend he has a minimum fee release clause off 300k

in the striking departmeny, u may already have them but:

Nicholas Mazzola ( Independiente)

L ganea- u probably have him lol

again there are usually plently of regens, just try all countys under 21's and under 19's, i found a striker from slovenia with a PA of 171

good luck btw icon14.gif

Thanks for the easy task btw, that's basically a whole team at League 1 standard for £1.3 mill and £13k wages, cheers. icon_wink.gif

GK: Scribe, Makriadze, Czaplinski. Loan/regen.

DR: San Roman. Loan/regen.

DL: Dubarbier. Loan/regen.

DC: Anderson Bamba, Chalwe, Duquesnoy, David Yepes, Obama. Loan/regen.

MC: Bernardo, Elvio Martinez, Mark Davies, Richard Hughes, Tamir Cohen. Loan/regen.

ML: Dubarbier, Grendel. Loan/regen.

ST: Sburlea is fine. Agouda, Musasa, Mazzola, Ganea. Loan/regen.

Cheers. I tried for Sabic on a free, but he signed a new contract with his team and is now worht £35k, a bit out of my way just now. I've kept him on the shortlst, though.
