There's some players I want in, and some I want out. Will do for now. Might bring Ayala in for Bonera, Appiah in for someone! and Gilardino in for Raul.

Advice and suggestions on starting line up are welcome!

It's a pleasure. ;) Good luck.
Advice; Lahm in at left-back, Ayala ahead of Bonera and Gilardino ahead of Raul. If you want to fit Appiah in you could maybe drop Recoba for Appiah and switch him with Nedved. Ah, the joys of being manager. :tongue:

Gilardino for Raul was the one I saw immediately.
Cheers lads. Any idea when the transfer window is open again? Eyeing up some players :)

Well the last one has just ended, so after the games finish, I guess. Which I'm guessing would be about 9 weeks?

Using your formation as a base, i'd go for something like this:
-----------------------------------Dida--------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------Lucio----------Ayala-----------------------
---------J.Zanetti--------------------------------------------Sorin----
----------------------------------Emerson-----------------------------
------------------------Gattuso---------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------Baptista----------------------
------------------------------------------------------Nedved----------
--------------------------Tevez---------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------Gilardino----------------------
£337m bank balance. Nicey nice.
Eyeing up: (and would like comments on players if possible, I know Sweey will as majority play in Italy).
Jankulovski
Pirlo (I know you'll slate him, but I;ve always admired him)
C Ronaldo
Ronaldo
Messi
Carragher
De Rossi
Stankovic

To me, gattuso and emerson were both miles over to the right, and i had to scroll right across to see who you had in midfield :huh: Here though it's only emerson who is miles away.

Not quite, not quite.
D1 Matchday 10:
Offside Athletic 4-0 Galaxy FC
Lucio 12
Tevez 55, 59(pen)
Recoba 90
D1 Matchday 11:
Offside Athletic 1-1 Lisbon Lions
Lahm 90
I've had alot of people asking me about the avalailibility of some of my players, mainly when my MSN name reads "REVISING! Leave me alone". So this clarifies who IS available.
AVAILABLE
29 Giorgio Chiellini
2 Daniele Bonera
30 Mauro Camoranesi
14 Stephen Appiah
7 Raul
14 Cristiano Lucarelli
Future Transfers
Ayala to Reyes9 for Brown, A.Lennon (loan) and £3m.
Baptista to .:Hunter:. for Carrick (loan), Stankovic and £1m.
Gattuso to charlie9 for Del Piero.
Gudjohnsen to martin_cranie for Santa Cruz.
Clerc to nikos24 for £2m.
Right, I've had a few queries on some players and this post will let you know who IS avaiable for transfer.
30 Christian Worns
17 Raul
GK: Dida
RB: J.Zanetti
CB: Brown
CB: Lucio
LB: Lahm
DM: Emerson
RW: Stankovic
LW: Yildirim
AM: Valerón
FW: Owen
FW: Tevez
So here's my potential starting 11. I may try to add another CB and go 5-3-2 or get a target man and go 4-3-3. Yildirim is a class act but I'm worried that he isn't a household name therefore people will overlook him so I may look to strengthen in that department too.
1 Dida
2 Javier Zanetti
3 Philip Lahm
4 Lucio
5 Emerson
6 Wes Brown
7 Allesandro Del Piero
8 Dean Ashton
9 Carlos Tevez
10 Michael Owen
11 Rafael Wicky
12 Ugur Yildirim
13 Carlo Cudicini
14 Dejan Stankovic
15 Marek Jankulovski
16 Michael Carrick (on loan from Hunter)
17 Juan Carlos Valerón
18 Jan Venegoor of Hesselink
19 Giuseppe Rossi (on loan from Cali)
20 Rui Costa
21 Juan Sebastian Veron
22 Gary Speed
23 Christian Worns
24 Julius Aghahowa
25 Aaron Lennon (on loan from Reyes)
26 Dado Prso
