Maybe do a goal of the week? seems active enough?

I'd probably never win :( Most of my chances seem to be one of my wingers dribbling down a wing and then cutting it back for a tap in. Its great to watch, but ain't going to win any awards

I need 10 points from 5 games to guarantee that I win the league!

I've got Valencia (4th), Granada (9th), @Real Madrid (3rd), @Getafe (16th) and Athletic Bilbao (6th) left so it won't be easy but having 3 of those 5 at home will help

I've done it! :D

And with 2 games to spare too! I'll post the final table after the season is finished.

After a difficult couple of winter months where I needed to call a team meeting to lift morale, I've had a great run and haven't lost in over 2 months (my last loss was a 1-3 loss at Sporting Gijon on 2.3.2014)

I've got the Copa del Rey final next and the Champions League final against Real Madrid to come. Here's hoping I can replicate my last result against Real Madrid and win the Treble!

A 'Goal of the Week' competition would be quite good although, I'm not sure whether it would carry on for much more than a fortnight or so :D As long as this thread stays active, it would be a good idea.

23drd23 - Well Done on winning the Liga BBVA title. Fantastic mate. The objective of leapfrogging the forces of evil that are Barcelona and Real Madrid is now in full swing.

:applause:

Still in Pre-season before season 2, being tough trying to get a new GK, looks like i might have to resort to Fabianski. Slightly better stats so should be ok. Every player i look at the clubs are asking huge amounts, is it just me who isnt willing to pay huge amounts for good players :p Maybe too used to being on an Aberdeen save with no money :p Got a good young spanish left back from Zurich for a good price.

Can you sign Kameni or do they want too much for him?

I usually offer the players value and keep upping my bid bit by bit. I usually find if I bid £10 million they want £30 million that if I up my bid by £5 million they will drop their price by the same amount. I rarely use scout to determine how much to bid and I use my own judgement on none youth players based on their attributes to determine how good I think they are.

I got ter Stegen for £9.75m before the start of the 3rd season because he wanted to move to a bigger club (Gladbach had been relagated). Was great for a 21yo for me last season - his stats in all appearances:

49 games, 37 conceded, 24 clean sheets, 2 MoM. Average Rating 7.07

As promised, the final league table:

I also won the Copa Del Rey to complete the domestic double:

Sadly, I got thrashed in the CL final. They scored an early goal from a long throw in and then Alberto Botia got sent off in the 10th minute for elbowing Higuain and it was downhill from there. The ref went a little yellow card crazy too.

Here's my squad (with the exception of Demichellis and Mathijsen who have left on a free and retired respectively):

GK ter Stegen / Kameni

DL Digne / Monreal

DC Dominguez / Demichellis

DC Botia / Kara / Mathijsen

DR Montoya / Gamez

MC (DLP) Banega / Toulalon

MC (CM) Ramsey / Bertolacci

AML (AP) Mata /

AMC (AM) Kagawa / Baptista

AMR (AP) Di Maria / Cazorla

ST (AF) Tevez / Rondon / Juanmi / Fierro

How do you use your B team? do you use it to send players or what?

I sign guys just to send to them so that I can keep them up in the 2nd division (I added them to Segunda B4 before the game started and then got the promoted). I've sent a couple of young guys there if they wont get outside loans offers or get games at a feeder club

The season has finally started, and I have finished my moulding..

Because I can't stand having money jangling around in my pockets, I bought another couple of players in: Bassong was transfer listed and after FM11 I do indeed love him dearly; and my scouts recommended Emmanuel Badu from Udinese. Looks potentially decent.

And I think I have settled on a nice set of tactics: I'm going to employ an attacking 4-3-3 when I'm at home and a very counter-attacking 4-5-1 when away.

First game played, used my 4-5-1 against Sevilla and notched up a decent 2-1 win (goals from Rondon and a penalty from Baptista). Chances were pretty even, but Sevilla players completely lost their heads after Rondon's 4th-minute opener - getting 8 yellows and 1 red in the end. Fiery.

How do you reckon there stats would increase by playing in the B team?
