I may have just got him for 3.8M

PS time fly's playing this game..was planning to play 15 min then going to bed, but time :vagi: me and an hour passed...

I was unaware of this thread. I just started playing like a month ago (well I played the demo first, then I just bought it like 2 weeks ago)

Game is addicting as hell.

I picked Villareal in hopes that a good standing in the simulation world will help them avoid relegation Very Happy

I finished my first season but kinda flew through it. I still am trying to work out how the training works.

All I can say is, Ibrahim Affelay for 2.7 million Cool

Ended up getting nominated for FIFA Player of the year. Press asks me who will win it (Messi, Ronaldo are there of course) I respond with Ibrahim Razz

I ended up playing half the season without Giuseppe Rossi and Nilmar because Nilmar was injured and Rossi started off the season sucking. Slowly integrated Rossi back in and he helped me go from my 9th ish position to a surge to 3rd. I ended up in 3rd. Got to round of 16 in CL that season as well. Bayern though... Evil or Very Mad

Hey do you guys know when you get a new transfer budget in the summer? I am still in June and all after my first season, but I have only 275k left of my transfer budget after I got it with a midseason loan. I asked for more transfer budget but they said i had sufficient funds (lol). So when do you get new funds?

EDIT: Received my funds. 11.3 million to work with...I can do some good things with that. Given I want to sell Nilmar.

Nilmar has...sucked so much :facepalm:

Does it take long to sell a player?

by Albiceleste Wed Mar 28, 2012 12:58 am

Just offer to clubs then if no one is interested offer to clubs again but a lower price, keep doing that until it says clubs are interested

Had my backup defender in midfield and my backup full back plying as well and managed to pull off my biggest win so far with this team.

Joel Valencia managed to rack up 4 assists, Fierro had 3 lol.......

Starting a Montpellier HSC save... Didn't know how shitty their finances are

Oh well Belhanda time :bow:

Do you guys know how to make players finish better?

I rarely score more than 3 goals (most of the time don't even get that) because my players couldn't hit water if they fell out of a boat.

I have a good defense (Mateo Musacchio :bow:

) but still.

Are there finishing trainers...?

A few ways to do this:

First you can go into your team and set Match prep to attacking movement and then amp up the workload, becareful to not do it too much or you will risk pissing off players, injuries or just tiredness.

Another way is to make sure you have good attacking coaches.

The other way is to go into individual players information, click on the training tab, change individual training focus to finishing.

Another way is in the training screen for your team, to click on schedules and change the forwards shooting schedule to as high as it will go lmao

Hope this helps

Drop your tempo a bit. Your playing too fast

Crimson, how the frack did you get more or as much possession as Barca?!

Player editor

by Albiceleste Fri Apr 06, 2012 7:29 pm

Nah you don't need a player editor to dominate Barca, I dominated them with a club that starts in the Championship in the CL final in 2018. They couldn't even get a shot on target Laughing

Very easily actually

Make sure your tactics are right leading into the game, set-up your opposition tactics properly.

Pretty stoked cus before those two games I had drawn or lost almost every game to Barcelona, the fact they have Ancelotti as coach and using a christmas tree makes it alot easier to counter

Seems something is finally paying off.

I got Carlos Fierro for free when he was 17, for BVB(Borussia Dortmund)
Now he is 19 ans slight worse than Lewandowski and Barios.
Also Dortmund don't give me large transfer budget so i cannot buy expensive players. So far I am on my 3rd season and won the Bundesliga on my two previous seasons

-----------------------------ter Stegen-
der Wiel------------Hummels------------- Subotic-------------Schmelzer-
---------------------Gundogan---------------Bender/Fernandinho(just got him)
Reus-------------------------------Ozil :dance:---------------------Gotze
----------------------------------- Barios

I got Ozil for 19m after he was unhappy at Real Madrid, Kagawa left cause he wanted a bigger challenge

No there isn't a difficulty level

That is the hardest part when buying a player and when you have a limited transfer budget it's even worse. Recently I tried to buy Neymar or Jovetic for BVB but my transfer budget was low so I couldn't afford to pay their loyalty fees and I'm stuck with Lewandowski and Barios.... for now
