FM13 What team should I be!


Purefun

Recommended Posts

I'm looking at Vitesse, sugar daddy will put money in and I could make good money from Wilfried Bony. They are decent but not great, solid mid-table in a tight league. Would expectations get sky high very quickly though with the sugar daddy?

I played with Vitesse before Bony will score for fun on the Erividisie, your expected to finish third on the league on the first season. Overall is a fun save you got a good prospect too with Van Ginkel.

I'm still looking for the following: :(

As ever squad building and tactical flexibility will be key to my save. So:

Europe

Top Tier

Mid Table

Plus - Either a small squad and a good budget or a larger squad which could utilise a few formations. I'm thinking being able to switch between 4-4-2 and 4-2-3-1 so I need traditional Wingers and inside forwards, box to box mids and defensive ones too.

Tricky, I know.

How about Sunderland? Small squad but not a huge budget (about £2.5M) but a few traditional wingers in Larson, Johnson and McLean and can play 4-4-2 with Graham and Fletcher upfront of 4-2-3-1 with one of the two and Sessegnon just behind the striker :).

Media Prediction: 4 - 18

Other: I'm going to start a new save and this time i want a long-term save.

I'm looking for a decent squad. A little bit of money and have some good youngsters ( under 18 and under 21 ). I dont want a team who has players with low

work-rate and teamwork and who has players who like to shoot from distant.

Hope you guys can help me!

Will give Saint Etienne a go. A sleeping giant of French football and some nice youngsters there as well. :) Kurt Zouma :cool:

Cool choice' date=' though Sampdoria fit your criteria too.

Looking for a mid table team in either La Liga, Serie A or Bundesliga. Dont mind about finances really although a couple of million would be nice.

Bundi - HSV or Hannover

Serie A - Udinese, Fiorentina, Genoa

Liverpool may be a decent challenge to try and get back into CL and then to challenge for the title and European honours.

Although in the top division, Sampdoria. Poli, Pedro, Icardi.....top training facilities and very good youth facilities. A clu that needs re-shaping

I want to take a side to the top of their league and later Europe. Preferably they're not playing European football and they're made of good young players largely from their own country.

St. Etienne is one of my options but worried that the French League may be too easy in terms of competition down the line with only PSG, Marseille and Lyon really top teams.

Sampdoria is another option, and in Germany I'm looking at Hoffenheim and Leverkusen.

What do you guys think and if there's any other side you propose let me know.

Real Sociedad absolutely ;) Squad full of potential, young players and in first team i think they have around 6 home-grown players if im correct, maybe more. Dont remember exactly. And no European football first season.

Edit: I was wrong there are 16 players at the start in first team that are from Sociedad academy ;)

Looking for a team with a pretty huge squad in terms of players at the club currently and on loan or co-owned if in Italy....Had a great save with Udinese and loved being in charge of so many players, and looked forward to loads of players coming back and buying some players back through the co ownership rule, too bad it was over by December in the 1st year :(

In the mood for a championship game, although I'm struggling to pick between Watford and Wolves. On the one hand, I do love Wolves, I have for the last few years because I loved a FIFA career mode with them and got to know who all the players were, and I do love the size of their squad. But then with Watford, I have quite liked them for a few years also too, watching them when they had Ben Foster in the prem, and I'm a massive fan of Serie A so love the Italian influence on the club at the moment, although I'm not sure if FM can simulate real life and if I'd be able to sign a lot of the players who I have on loan? Or if it'd be as easy as in real life to grab players on loan from Udinese or Granada....Argh, decisions!

@DaveMUFC try a Brazilian team. They require a lot of players due to the fact that they might have one of the highest number of games played.

I do plan on making a Santos save at some point soon, as I love their team and obviously Neymar :p But I'm a bit of a wheeler dealer and I love trying to grab loads of players who get transfer listed over the year and the bosman players, so the Brazilian league puts me off a little bit in that respect, as I can't really attract any European players...

I started two days ago with Sociedad. How were you doing in first season? Im currently at the start of season 1 and we are struggling to score more goals even if we have thousand of chances.

Also, it would be nice if they get thread, fantastic club with a lot of potential :)

goals were a struggle first season. i had vela and griz playing wide and getting the most. just gotta try and be solid defensively so the lack of goals doesn't matter as much.

finished season 1 and 2 in 5th spot.

Board Expectation(s): Don't really care but i'll push for promotion first season

Transfer Budget: Happy to play free transfers and loan market

Wage Budget: Good wage budget to attract good free agents and loans or at least be able to ask for more

Finances: Decent, but understand many clubs at this level aren't doing too well

Other: In this long term save I want to push for promotion in first season. Don't care if I have to completely rebuild or not. Has to be challenging but not too hard where I might lack the motivation to continue.

Bournemouth give a wage budget of £75k p/w which is quite good for L1. The board expect promotion and you have a decent squad although the defensive side needs strengthening centrally (keeper, centre back and central midfield). Top tips: (1) Ask the board to increase your percentage of transfer revenue (2) Recall Wesley Thomas from his loan, play him as a poacher alongside a target man, and offer a new contract (3) Formation could be key. I am a traditional 442 man but that failed badly. However, 3232 really works (3 x cb, 2 x wb, 3 x cm, 2 x st). I started with them today and after a very poor start, I now have a chance of scraping a play-off spot.

Want to start a game in the premiership, would be interested in practically any team outside the top 6. Have looked at West Ham, Everton, Newcastle and West Brom but just need something to give me that extra push. Need a team with potential to build into a top club. Thanks.

Newcastle would be your best bet, you have the best fans in the Premiership and will get massive crowds, you are in the Europa league, you have quality players like Cisse, Haidara, Sissoko, Tiote, Cabaye etc, you also have a couple of good young players like Streete, Campbell etc.

You can also sell the deadwood and bring in quality young cheap players.

How about QPR? A few solid players with Granero, Taarabt, Remy, Hoillet and Samba and plenty of cash to build upon, Tony Fernandes is also willing to do lots to build the club up, always get training and youth facilites upgraded.

Colchester United would be a good shout. Crewe?

Cheers fot he suggestion mate, they have got some cracking players but the wages put me off a bit. I like to be quite strict in that department.
