Bracken Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 From experience, I'd say Dzeko. I've seen Hernandez play brilliantly for the AI but never had him myself, whereas Pazzini never seems to do that much on my FM. Dzeko is guaranteed goals though, especially in the Prem.

soli Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Dzeko without a doubt. He is a prolific goal scorer and should slot right in beside Defoe. Although his wage demands may put you off a bit. Hernandez is good and worth a try but Pazzini never seemed to work for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgar555 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Dzeko and Hernandez want £110k pw each, Pazzini £105. Not bothered about cost anyway but there's hardly anything in it so no stress. Thats 2 for Dzeko which isn't really the answer I wanted but maybe I'll hit delay and see who else pops in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArsenalFan7 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Should I pay £25million for this kid? He wants a Key Player role and £130,000, he also insists on a £25million release clause, I easily have one of the strongest squads in the world and richest clubs and a brilliant harmony at my club so it shouldn't be too hard to keep him from leaving regardless, he also wants a few bonuses such as around £20k in appearance fees, I have agreed to these, I just need the go ahead signal. I have a £95million budget that isn't being used, about £1million left for wages, as for players I have a world class ST/AML who usually starts on the wing because Babacar takes the ST spot in my 4-3-3, I also have Messi who I play on the left and right. He looks a cracking winger though, would provide a brilliant cross Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bracken Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 I'd say it's a lot for a player it sounds like you don't really need? He is brilliant, but it's a lot for a player who might get unhappy if he's not first team and you don't sound convinced that he'll be your first choice? I'd say no. Also, his acceleration is lower than I'd usually like for a winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArsenalFan7 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Well, Messi is pushing on 30 though, I'm not too sure about this one. I mean I have a Tycoon running me as it is, money means nothing to me. He could provide a huge piece of talent to my squad, I can easily switch formations if I need to as well.

Bracken Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Yeah I guess as Messi is getting on, if you can keep him happy for a season or two while Messi winds down, he could prove a great investment. I suppose the other benefit is at least you take him away from a rival lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustygator Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 AS Roma Jan 2011 I can get either one of the following. Both would cost £7M plus £1.5 after 40 matches. Haruna also has 10% profit from sale add-on. Both will sign for ~£15k. I usually play 4-2-3-1, 4-2-2-2 or 4-2-3-1 with wingbacks and would use either one as a deep lying playmaker or central midfielder on support. Petrovic has a higher stats in the core areas but Haruna could also rotate at AMC. Both have 3.5 stars potential from the same scout (18/19). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisandro Lopez Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Haruna is not good enough to be a option at AMC even on rotation, think you have to go with Petrovic as a CM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoonaldo Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Need a RB to rotate with Gassama.

Lisandro Lopez Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 It depends really how they have developed as-well, Sébastien Corchia is usually more well rounded but Aurier can sometimes surpass Corchia from the longer term. The wage demands from either of those two aren't ideal but unless Aurier looks beastly I'd say Corchia. Plus Lamine is awesome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But him and Onouha(on loan) are currently injured, so I only have Lovren left who has moved over from CB. And due to him being suspended I'm currently playing a 15 year old local boy.

Lisandro Lopez Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Serge is indeed looking quite good there, just based on the stats I look for as full back I'd say Serge has the edge. If I'm honest you can't go wrong with either, I wouldn't bother with the Bosingwa option though. Sorry, I've probably not helped as much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustygator Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Aurier for sure IMO. His stats look noticeably better especially Natural Fitness which is very important for a guy that's going to hustling up and down the touchline all game. Not to mention he's younger and I doubt you'll be needing Corchia's stats in set pieces. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nottingham Forest Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Buying/Selling: Selling Player Name: Sam Ricketts Buyer/Seller: Fulham Player's Value: £2.3m Offer: £2.3m over 30 months plus Bjorn Helge Riise Transfer/Wage Budget: N/A Patch: 11.2.1 Season: 1 I don't need to sell Ricketts but i'm on my third attempt to get him to sign a new contract. He's rejected two already. If I sell him I get Riise who currently I don't need as I have Lee Chung-Yong and Stuart Holden for the right midfield spot. I am struggling to get some centre midfielders though and if I sell Ricketts and Riise, I could move Holden in to the centre of midfield and try to sign: Buying/Selling: Buying Player Name: Fabinho Your Team: Bolton Wanderers Buyer/Seller: Coritiba Player's Value: £500k Offer: Probably get him for his value or just under Transfer/Wage Budget: £7.5m/£100k Patch: 11.2.1 Season: 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dustygator Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 See if you can get more money instead of a part exchange for Riiise and maybe look at Rafael Galhardo who starts off at Flamengo. He's a natural RB but is accomplished at every position on the right flank and makes a better winger/wide midfielder. He'll probably cost around £3m, has high potential and is 18 at the start I believe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hootoo22 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Danny Simpson is valued at 1.5m, but Newcastle are selling at 700k. He has Tackling 14, Marking 11, Concentration 11, Pace 16, and Work Rate 16, to name just a few stats. My scout reckons he'll ask for somewhere between 9k and 14k in wages. He'd be extremely interested in joining too which suggests I could probably get him for wages of 9/10k. He's rated at 3.5 stars so he's a 'quality signing'. And yes, I thought Wood's price was a little steep too! I may just hope that O'Connor, Griffiths and Obika will be enough to keep me up, then I'll spend big in the summer.

Hibserpool Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Could do with a hand here fellas. I am currently managing Sevilla. I'm in July 2016 and have just noticed this kid playing for Milan! Now he is undoubtedly the best young striker in the game (that i have seen). The gutting thing is AC Milan signed him only 12 months ago for 525k. I have a 32 year old Carlos Tevez (still banging them in) and a 29 year old Luis Suarez upfront, with an 18 year old kid as back up. Every other position has 2 quality players and i have a transfer budget of £150m. I just had a £22m bid for this kid rejected, and with Carlos Tevez looking like an amazing tutor for him, i'm wondering if i should break the bank to sign him? How far would you guys go? Or would you look for alternitave target? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Personally I would not pay more than the £22 million you have already bid. For me his finishing and composure are not goo enough sure they will probably improve if he has more potential but I like my strikers to 16 plus when I am at a big club. If I were you I would look at Hernandez from Man United or Bojan both banged in loads of goals for me from 2015 onwards and they would tide you over until you can find a really good regen. If you have a huge bank balance then it is really up to you how much you want to spend on the lad but personally I wouldn't bother not for £40 million plus or whatever it would cost you.
