Not really sure how we wound up at Barnsley, it says he joined last year (15.7.2102) but I still had him at Port Vale then. In any case, the move was good for him and he's currently in second place for overall goals.

Looks like Real Madrid is becoming interested in a few of our youngsters. We'll have to see how that works out.

[Charlie_B]

Hmm, it's a shame about my anticipation but my other stats are pretty fantastic for a 17yo. No surprise that United sold me for a miserly 210k, it's nto like we need the money...

On reflection AMC clearly seems like the way to go! Still, it'll be interesting to see how things develop.

[18Rabbit]

Are there any match/stat information that you guys want to see that I'm not covering?

I've already simmed 2013-2014. It takes longer to write up the summaries than it does to run the sims.

[Spurs_NZ]

Wasn't expecting Jimmy to be doing so well this early on! Looks like he's had a good season. Could be on the road to being Australia's next Tim Cahill.

KUTGW 18Rabbit!

[bambi holt]

V.V Coconut joining spurs, happy with that! Howevere don't stand much chance winning this sign up, made mistake of being defender, just to be different!

[-RV-]

Helge looking good. Ok, he doesn't score, but his physical and mental abilities are promising.

What about "I Can Make More Assists Than You?"

[5ergio]

Just as expected, Cali is seeing constant game time in U20. 41 apps, 9 goals and 12 assists is a decent return I'd say. Here's hoping he'll be getting those numbers in the main squad in no time.

[bjoggi33]

Need to start playing more

[Guest avine]

not an aesy experiment after all, and when the rest of the players start playing it will be harder to compete

[18Rabbit]

Center mids had a better season this time.

[toonbalmy87]

as long as i stay at Darlington i am Golden are Darlo still in the BSP 18Rabbit ??

KUTGW Cheif

[18Rabbit]

as long as i stay at Darlington i am Golden are Darlo still in the BSP 18Rabbit ??

KUTGW Cheif

As of January 1st, 2013 they are still in BSP. Since I'm not simming that league, it'll be kind of a crapshoot if they get out of it.

[Guest avine]

why did Valencia retrained Collins to MR, have no hopes. have to blame the manager, slowly turns him in a team player. Which team is interested 18Rabbit ?? keep them coming we are curious

[18Rabbit]

why did Valencia retrained Collins to MR, have no hopes. have to blame the manager, slowly turns him in a team player. Which team is interested 18Rabbit ?? keep them coming we are curious

Collins is only wanted by teams I have managed because I have all of the players on a shortlist. Not sure why everyone doesn't show up that way but the players that show as "Wnt" that I haven't specified who is interested in them, it's most likely because of them being on my shortlist.

As for having dual positions, that happened to almost all of the players to some degree when the game was generated. Almost everyone was given another position that they were above 0 at, just for Collins, Di Mata and Lorenzo they are actually pretty respectable at a different position. This is also why not everyone had 15 in the stats that they chose, generation doesn't always explicitly follow what is in the DB.

[Gypsum]

A new contract at West Ham is promising, despite my lack of games!

good news for me as i am in a rubbish league and should score more goals

[Shakes]

So the best way to win this game is hope your non striker gets a secondary position of striker and a team decides to train them up to natural there.

[Thebaker]

Really good to see that i'm getting a lot of games, hopefully i can improve my goal getting. Modelled my player as the next 'Matt Le Tissier' i suppose Paul Gascoigne is the nearest thing

[mrbmfc]

Quite disappointed to get transferred to Man Utd, I was hoping to bang in a few for Boro before moving on to bigger and better things.

Hopefully i wont rot in the reserves for too long!

[18Rabbit]

I'll have a couple of updates here in a little bit.

Helge Blendet, Mark Brown, March Di Mata and Björgvin Radebe are loan listed but no one is interested.

John Crane has attracted the interest of Liverpool for a transfer but is still at Ipswich for now.

Jimmy Kruse has attracted major interest from Almería. He has recieved an updated contract offer from Valencia but may also just leave the club on a free transfer at the end of the 2014 season. We'll have to see what happens with him.

Here's the stat summary images:

Though Dench Frimpong is leading the pack for goals for now, I'm curious if it will last. His stat growth is pretty anemic compared to some of the kids are the bigger clubs and he's still on a youth contract and only valued at 55k.

Also wanted to point out that yes, Jimmy Kruse is saying "F this place, I'm out." and taking a free release. I'm keeping an eye on him to see where he winds up.

[Tactic Master]

Can't believe I was loaned and then not even used for a single game... I shoulda stayed at Chelsea for the training and youth games :S

[Gypsum]

Glad to have got some first team games on loan at Birmingham. A step in the right direction!

[5ergio]

6 goals in his first proper first team season at Bari. Good return for Cali I'd say. If he managed to add some assists to that, he might as well get a starting place at Juve!

[billydavey1001]

No goals and no appearances!!! Aaargh, loan me out or play me ffs.

[dieu]

Come on Moridin, get away from Stoke as soon as you can!

[den-dockx1993]

I love this thread, I seriously doubt my career plan, though. Only 20 years old and already played in 4 different countries. Just out of interest, do I speak Spanish and Portuguese now?

[5ergio]

January 1, 2015 Update

Sercan Cali is out on loan to Empoli from Juventus until the end of the season. His general happiness is Unknown (dun-dun!). Has managed to pick up 4(!) PPM's total. He now Gets Into Opposition Area, Knocks Ball Past Opponents, Cuts Inside and enjoys Arguing with Officials.

Wow! 3 PPMs learned, considering he started with Cuts Inside. Aside from arguing, the other two adds a lot to inside forward play style I'd say. 2 goals already at Empoli at the half way is not bad.

[mrbmfc]

January 1, 2015 Update

Mark Brown signed a new contract with Man. United to keep him there until 2017. Also picked up the PPM Runs With Ball Down Left.

Woop! First goal finally! I'm thinking last minute screamer of a freekick in the Manchester derby...

[Goldhawk]

My talent is obviously not appreciated in Scotland. Come on now, get me moved!

[18Rabbit]

I love this thread, I seriously doubt my career plan, though. Only 20 years old and already played in 4 different countries. Just out of interest, do I speak Spanish and Portuguese now?

Jonas Dockx speaks French, English, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese and has earned time towards nationalities of Great Britain, Spain and Portugal.

[den-dockx1993]

Jonas Dockx speaks French, English, Dutch, Spanish and Portuguese and has earned time towards nationalities of Great Britain, Spain and Portugal.

Wow, that's just lovely. A bit unrealistic, though, I don't think there's a football player who speaks five languages. :-D

[dieu]

Wow, that's just lovely. A bit unrealistic, though, I don't think there's a football player who speaks five languages. :-D

Patrice Evra does.

[den-dockx1993]

Patrice Evra does.

Alright, point taken, he is an exception, though. Besides, there are not many people (footballers or non-footballers) who speak five languages fluidly. But this is entirely off-topic.

Back on-topic: I really like my PPM's, I really hope Liverpool gives me some first team football next year.

Off topic again I would think there are several that could speak several languages, but I would agree that maybe not fluid. I wonder how many Anelka can speak, hes been around the block a few times, seen this, done that sort of thing

[-RV-]

Ok, Helge with Celtic now. Should be a good move to get some match experience,

Jim Bowman DC - Man City - Getting pretty regular first team appearances but not the goals to go with it. 8(9) league apps, 1(3) cup apps and got his first international cap against Ireland.

Arawn Moridin M/AM R - Stoke - Pottering around would be the best way to describe his activities at Stoke. 10(3) non-competitive appearances with one goal.
