dexta200 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 thats a nice squad mate. i would go for GK - Joao Carlos (as much as i love scribe i think carlos is an amazing gk) DR - San Roman DL - Alex Diaz as i think he will be more confident because of the age. both look good for their ages on mine at the start. eron looks a future star! DC - Obama DC - Ponce (not sure about yepes, bamba, Christie) DM - Roberto CM - Bernardo CM - Lulinha AML - Di Maria AMR - Braaten FC - GANEA!! campbell will be great for you! retrain him to play wing as well.

dexta200 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 matt ill have my usual update at end of season. to see how they fair inthe champ please if thats alright with you you havent thanked me for getting you hooked on oxford Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Cheers mate, what about 4-4-2 to incorporate maore strikers? I played it part of last season and it looked great! I'll give them both a go and play this for 4-4-2: GK: J Carlos DR: San Roman DL: Diaz DC: Obama DC: Ponce (if against v aerial strikers then Yepes) MR: Lulinha (better on the right on 8.0.2) ML: Di Maria MC: Roberto MC: Bernardo FC: Ganea FC: Campbell/Despotovic I'll play the regens in cup games so don't expect any cup genius this season! Here are my regens: Good for the important DC stats and seems very hard working. If his fitness develops then he could be great. PA 181. Stats aren't amazingly impressive and you can't see him dominating the box and ordering the defence around. Pretty bulky too, still good general keeper stats tho. PA 171. Bargain from Blackburn last season: £22k. Looks pretty impressive to boot. Could be a good winger, decent striker. PA 175. And last but not least my mini-Ronaldo. Brilliant striker with great stats everywhere but look at his weight! PA 199. Prob some of the best regens I've found on FM 2008! Tom, ofc I'll update mate, but I seem to be going really slow atm so it could be a while. And you haven't thanked me for getting hooked on Oxford! Seriously mate thanks a lot! The most fun I've had on FM in a long time! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexta200 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 ah haha yeah cheers man! don't think i would have lasted if i didnt have someone else on here with me! glad your enjoying it! you should play farias first team! looks amazing!!!

ypresfr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Depending on how I do in the Championship I'll play him against the weaker sides or if one of my first choice strikers gets injured. Yeah, what a success this thread has been. 7 and a lot pages for a BSP thread!!! Loads of new gamers who seem to have stuck with it, a stroke of genius on your behalf mate!

dexta200 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 thanks mate. yeah glad we have a load of new faces in too! keep it up guys! forest up next! do you do anything differently against the big teams? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Not really tbh but if you wanted to you could go to a deeper defensive line and counter attacking, especially when you're away from home. Momentum may be the key tho, say if you win loads before the match you tend to play better I find. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexta200 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 i think my 1st ever giant killing! won 3-2 away against forest! goals from Kalenga and 2 from Harsanyi!! hopefully that will ive my side some confidence! got sunderland inthe next round i dont care about that 3rd round is fine for me and im at home so more money cheers for the help matt. i think it was your help that got me through it! scored in the 92min woop! two more cup games afterwards! Tamworth 1-3 Oxford (Harsanyi, Soley, Odubade) (FA Trophy 1st round) - been drawn against part- timers Evesham in 2nd round.

dexta200 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 im fine in the league its weird. unbeaten in 20 games in all comps now. since weymouth. its still just converting my chances. 19-0 on shots against farsley but only won 1-0! odubade seems to be pretty good but only off the bench!

ypresfr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Yeah that's a bit strange but you're unbeaten so don't complain mate! I found Matt Green pretty effective off the bench 1st season but most people will terminate his loan straight away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexta200 Posted March 28, 2008 Author Share Posted March 28, 2008 yeah i did that myself. just as i say that. northwich the ******** beat me 2-1 in another game i dominate 57% possession 13 shots to 6! and this is away from home! odubade scored again. but never mind i just want to do well in the cups this time. promotion should be fine but just need to put these chances n the net. only 3 on target Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Hmmm, that's weird (and annoying!). Thankfully for me I don't have the same problems: I know it's only a friendly but it bodes well for the season ahead! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ypresfr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Hmmm other offers are now flooding in: Portsmouth for Braaten- £7 mill after 40 goals (no chance!)

ypresfr Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Nice results mate. It's not hard at all is it? Yeah, I just prefer this one. The other one wasn't doing so great, we were scraping wins 1-0 and 2-1 so I changed and it's certainly provided goals! I have some replacements lined up: Bayal Sall for Yepes- this guy has immense stats and only £350k Sebastien Leto for Braaten- Younger and can link up with his Argentinian mate di Maria in the left wing.

dexta200 Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 well both look pretty sweet! never seen bayal sall before just looked him up looks pretty great! worth 2.2mill on mine though! lacks a bit of pace but overall pretty good leto will be great in championship and for your 1st couple of seasons in the prem. just got a 2-2 draw against qpr at home so now got ANOTHER replay at their place! 3-2 again? haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
