gggfunk Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Is Muslera so good? I'm looking for a GK who could compete with Szczesny and I think about Scuffet if he's not too expensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revans Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Only had him this season but he got the Golden Glove with something like 21 CS's. He's very good but I'm still looking to replace him with someone truly world class (Ter Stegen, De Gea, Courtois etc) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gggfunk Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Yeah I'd like to sign somebody like Ter Stegen or De Gea too, but I don't think their clubs will agree to sell them. So Scuffet seems to be a more realistic target. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revans Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Done a couple of swap deals with the Spanish giants. Muslera + £22m for Ter Stegen Mario + £16m for Carvajal I'm trying to offload Badelj but nobody is interested for £8.5m. Sold Cazorla to Liverpool for £8m, looking for a replacement who will be understudy to Sanchez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gggfunk Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 That's a good price for Ter Stegen. Was he interested in joining your club? I'll try to sign him in the summer. For Cazorla's replacement I'd recommend Kishna or Martial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunstrikuuu Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Well, boys, there's gonna be a barnburner in the Champions League in 2019. Barcelona and Bayern have been drawn against one another in the first knockout round. Ho. Ly. Crap. I've got Dortmund, and hopefully by the time it rolls around I'll have the squad back onside. Nearly all my players have gotten upset at me for leaving Laurent Koscielny and Kinglsey Coman out of the squad for the Club World Championship. I don't care even a little bit about the competition; the board cares less, if that's possible. I want my stars to get rest, and to use it to blood young players. Unfortunately there's not a way to communicate that to players, and they're justly (I think) upset that one of the most important players in the team has been left out. Bit of a dressing room revolt, I've quelled it but morale is still low. Recent results have been alright. After the Videoton 5-1, I went on a bit of a tear, scoring five goals each in four of the next seven games. Unfortunately, I also lost 1-2 to Tottenham at their place, New White Hart Lane as it's imaginatively named. The defense is steady, basically conceding one goal a game. It's all about the attack and whether the forward players click. Aaron Ramsey has been a total boss. It's disgusting how good he is, frankly. He's got 9 goals and 11 assists from 20 starts and one (brief) substitute appearance. He's completing 86% of his passes and 83% of his tackles; pretty solid for a player playing half as a CMa and half as a BBMs. I really hope he wins some of the major world awards. The final of the Club World Championship is coming up and I'm pretty excited. I don't care about the competition per se, but I'll be playing some of my best prospects at goalkeeper, right back, center back, in three of my five midfield positions and up front. Against admittedly weak opposition in Auckland City, Arsenal's kids scored six, led by striker Ezequiel Ponce's hat trick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Control, Fluid. Shorter passing, work ball, whipped crosses, roam, close down more, lower tempo. GK/defend (PI: distribute to full backs) WBr/support - CD/defend - CD/defend - WBl/support CM/support - DLP/defend IFr/attack (PI: Roam + sit narrower) - TQ - IFl/support AF (PI: Hold up ball) or DLF/attack The rest is just set piece instructons, no further PI's than those already mentioned. I did start with money to buy in the first window, in order to be able to sign 2 much needed additional central defenders. Thomit, Thank you for posting a reply with your tactic guidance, Since following your details with some slight tweaks to suit my style and players im flying, I really appreciate your good feedback and information. Signed Khedira 11m, Munir (loan), Musacchio 9m to partner Gabriel Originally But Koscielny snapped his cruciate ligament during pre season and is out for the whole season, So either of them are partnering Mertersaker. I'm doing very well in the league, played 8 won 8 beating Man Utd at old Trafford in the process, The rest of the games have been fairly win able games, haven't really came up against anyone yet. Im struggling to get Sanchez Playing at the minute though, He is just not effective in any role he plays, Either left or right side of the attacking 3. Cazorla and Oxlade Chamberlain gave been brilliant out wide with Ozil through the middle behind either Giroud or Welbz. I've literally just played a game and Sanchez has bagged a brace as a striker...I think i might have found him a new role in my team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBroadband Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Hello all, Just finished my first season on 15.3.1 & it went better than I thought it would.. winning the treble (I don't count the Community Shield) Winning the league by 14 points & unbeaten in 27 (my personal record) Loved hammering Chelsea 5-0 in the Champions League Final!

bows Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Watching last night's game has made me want to start my first Gunners save, try to get the best out of players like Alexis and Ozil in the same team and dominate both domestic and European competitions. I don't really want to change the squad too much in the begining but improving LB and CM is a priority. I'd like to know people's views on both Digne and Ricardo Rodriguez as an attaking wing back. Rodriguez looks quality but is he that much better than Digne considering the difference in price and wages of both (Digne £3.5m + 50k p/w, Rodriguez £22.5m + 110k p/w)? I need someone who can get up and down the left flank and provide width all day like the famous Brazillian full backs as my LW will be playing more narrowly and cutting inside. In CM, I'm planning on playing Ramsey and Jack W as B2B and DLP/D most games, with Ozil in the AM strata. For tougher games, I'll prob plug an anchor man in DM behind the two (who's roles will change slightly). My question is I'm looking to only make one signing who can potentially cover all three roles. The standout names are Khedeira, Schneiderlin and Wil Carvalho (got a soft spot for Ruben Neves as well but not sure if he would suit all 3 roles). I'll still have Arteta and Coquellin as backup but need someone with a bit more quality who can be used in rotation with Rambo/Wilshere. Any recomendations would be great Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomit Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Jorginho (Napoli) is one who can play nearly every DM or CM role possible. And is available for a sensible amount of money. There is Pogba of course, but he will probably be too expensive (for my taste, at least). And then there's the perennial Lucas Romero of course, who will be very useful no matter what; you can just buy him even before you have decided on roles and duties in your midfield. Just pay attention to the players' ppm's. Someone like Strootman for example looks to be a very versatile beast in midfield, but his ppm's makes him unsuitable for some of the roles that his attributes seems to suggest he'd be brilliant in. Etc. It's often not possible to "un-train" unsuitable ppm's either. Myself, I am currently (new game, default database, first season) using Ramsey/Arteta as DLP/d, and Wilshere/Flamini as CM/s, with Özil/Rosicky as a T in front. Rosicky will probably be swapped for someone young and up and coming, like Maximilian Meyer or Martin Ødegaard, when he retires (or asks to leave). And I'm in the market for replacements for Arteta and Flamini, who are not getting any younger. And as always, I will be looking to snatch Aboubakar asap. I consider Wilshere to be somewhat unsuitable as a DLP because of his "gets forward...." ppm. It's not ideal for his CM/s role either, frankly, but it can be useful in that role also.

I've literally just played a game and Sanchez has bagged a brace as a striker...I think i might have found him a new role in my team. Splendid, good to see some of my suggestions works for you. I prefer playing Sanchez on the left, as a IF/s. I get more consistency out of him there, and he provides a very decent amount of assists and goals. But he's my number three striker when the other two are unavailable or being rested/rotated. His "offside trap" ppm is both a blessing and a curse, I find, and he loses the ball a bit too much, which can mainly be attributed to his "runs with ball often". He is after all a light-weight, and prone to be easily tackled or shuffled off the ball. I would prefer him to pass the ball on more swiftly. I haven't been successful in "un-training" his ppm's.

thomit Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I always sign Alex Sandro (Porto) as a replacement for Monreal as WBL in all of my saves. He is first choice in that position, relegating Gibbs to rotation status. He also has decent enough stats in all attributes important for a CWB, if you want that. I play him either as WB/s or CWB/s, depending on the opposition. There is Alaba (Bayern München), but I doubt you'll get him for a reasonable fee.

Thanks for the help guys, Jorginho looks a really interesting option, if a little lightweight (saying that he'll fit right in with the current crop of midfielders ) Must say I'm guilty when scouting players of spending too much time looking at their attributes and not taking enough notice of their ppm's, it's almost a trap I can't get myself out of. I seem to think that players in a more disciplined role will be exactly that, regardless of their ppm's, which I know isn't true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragingsheep Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Is anyone else have issues with player unhappiness? I haven't even finished one season yet and I've had Chambers complain that he wasn't getting enough games (despite being injured for 2/3 months), Wilshere complain when I signed Walcott on a new contract, Gibbs became unhappy (with no warning) that he didn't get offered a new contract for good form (also causing half my squad to become unhappy) and Gabriel demanding a new contract to match Gibb's new contract. "Fortunately", Wilshere's only a rotation option and he's gotten over it and Debuchy got a long term injury so I can play Chambers at RB as well as CB.

thomit Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I would look at their coach report which suggest what role it would suit them better If you go by that approach when selecting roles, you can easily end up with something very unbalanced. That's really not the way to go about it. The tactic and the formation will to a large extent dictate what roles you should have, and that's not necessarily what's the "best" roles for any particular player. The midfield particularly is where you should try to have a good balance. Read the stickies in the Tactics & Training forum, and this guide, which I have found very helpful when it comes to selecting roles and role combinations.

WillyBroadband Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 In the 2018/19 season and looking for a replacement for Giroud want some similar to him but bit quicker p.s: Lukaku is out of the question I can't recommend Max Kruse at Gladbach enough dude, I've signed him 2 saves in a row now and he always performs well for me. Also, I know you're further in but at the beginning of the game he has a £9 mil release clause. He may not be world class but is very solid. Also I'd recommend Richairo Živković at Ajax, absolute beast. And also Salomón Rondón at Zenit. Both 6'2" plus, strong & quick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingLara Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 FM15 Season 2 Review PRE SEASON Our pre-season only consisted of three fixtures due to being unable to arrange friendlies close to the date. We beat Bournemouth 8-3 in the first with debutant Bernard scoring five. Against Bolton we drew 1-1 having played 70 minutes with ten men while the final fixture was to Italian side Bari. Again there was a first half sending off but Chamberlain scored a hattrick. In the Emirates Cup we narrowly beat Boca Juniors 1-0 in the semis before thrashing Barcelona 4-0 in the final. SQUAD The only new face was Bernard. On deadline day I brought in Bertrand. Later in January due to accidentally not extending Bertrands loan I brought in Evra. Olivier Giroud was the only major first team player to leave. It left me without a target man for the whole season. Something I will try to address in the summer. Other exits were Monreal, Joel Campbell and Flamini. Szczesny Ospina Gibbs Bertrand/Evra Chambers Debuchy Koscielny Mertersacker Balanta Bernard Podolski Chamberalin Sanchez Wilshere Khedira Ramsey Romero Ozil Cazorla Walcott Welbeck PREMIER LEAGUE Last season we won the league by six points this time we extended it to 9. Although a late season slump saw us finish on the same amount of points. We scored 111 goals which was 3 more than last season and conceded 38 which was 4 less. Highlights included hitting Nottingham Forrest for 7 both home and away. Beating Chelsea Liverpool and United away plus doing the double over Spurs.

In the first knock out stage we beat Sporting both home and away. In the quarters we drew the first leg 1-1 at Old Trafford before winning 4-1 at the Emirates. We beat Bayern on penalties after both sides had won the home legs 1-0. In the final it was another 1-0 this time against Real Madrid. In the Fa Cup We beat both Barnsley and Brentford 2-0 before an extraordinary gave at Burnely saw us lead 4-0 inside 20 minutes before the sending off of Koscielny saw Burnely fight back and in the end it finished 6-5 to us. In the quarters we were denided a win at old Trafford by a 96th minute equaliser. We won the replay 5-1 though with Ozil scoring a hattrick. In the semis Chamberlain grabbed an 89th minute winner to beat Liverpool 3-2. In the final we faced their Merseyside rivals Everton and won 16-15 in an epic penalty shootout. The League Cup was the only blip in the domestic season. We started we beating Fulham 2-0 and Chelsea 3-1 but were knocked out at home to eventual runners up Liverpool in the quarters 9-10 on penalties. In the Super Cup we faced Chelsea and were unfortunate to lose 2-3. A bitter defeat to swallow. In the community Shield we faced old foe Liverpool and after drawing 1-1 beat them 5-4 on penalties.

I have a warchest of 155m so plenty of money to spend but also have to look at who is coming through. Not sure about which players will leave yet. It depends what comes in.

I actually sold Zivkovic to PSG (release clause) Kruse starting contract runs out in 2017(I'm in 2018) and Obviously United aren't going to sell a good player to a rival cheap. anyway do you have any more to recommened Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I play Ramsey as a Ball Winning Mid on Support on the right of central in a 4-4-2 formation. I've re-trained Wilshere to play Left Mid which he has played well in when I've rested Özil.
