Gotta say DJ Campbell is a similar 'hidden gem'
Still playing both of them with Lassana Diarra, match for most- do you think Ashley Young is better then? any other gems about?
Also there are a few other players who I just 'don't get'- Petorbenov, Dotan are two I remember that everyone seems to have- what am I missing?!:erm:
yeah youngs better, but at 4 mil he should be, he is a good player, stats dont tell the fullstory. better form then petorbenov, otherwise he would be my man.
its as much who you are comfortable with aswell as the stats tho.

lol, I'm getting sentimental now, they've both played over 400 games for me so don't want to get rid of them! Just about holding it together in Div 2 though so need to improve my squad if I'm gonna push on ahead into Div 1
team at the mo is:
Weise
Alvarez A Ferdinand R Carvalho Salihimadzic
L Diarra
D J Campbell G Barnes
Annecasilla Martins Eto'o
subs are: Santacroce
A Johnston
B H Riise
and the obligatory cheap guys
Will look at getting Young in, any other improvements anyone can offer?
ta!

Morning All,
Originally started out with the seemingly obligatory squad of speed merchants and after a brief an woeful stint in Div 4 decided that style of play wasn't for me. Decided upon a change to 4-4-2 and a more traditional wing style of play & just to make life a little more difficult a squad of only English players. After somewhere in the region of 350 games (and promotion today back to div 4) my squad looks as follows:
GK - Hart
LB - Konchesky
CB - Ridgwell
CB - W Brown
RB - Hibbert
LM - Downing
DM - Hargreeves
CM - McCan
RM - Bentley
SS - Sturridge
CF - Andy Johnson
Subs - Err. them ones that only cost about £2.50 cos i cant afford any yet
Most expensive player is around £3m (and a bit).

I might go for a new theme in my squad. I hade Parma - Fail!, France - Dubbel fail! and now i am seeking to get a new one. Might go for a brittish or even just english one.
But i don't Know if I am gonna play a 4-4-2 style or a 4-3-3 style or even a 4-2-3-1.
Or should i play as a 'full' team like Blackburn or PSG? This beats me... I would have loads of players but I allways kleep restaring my team :x

Love that team bro! Feels like you have put alot f thoughts behind the build up. Great wingers who have alot of power in there crosses and longshoots. And Andy who can run fast and 'drag' defenders with him. Impressive.
Cheers Svisma, its taken a while and a lot of ranieri style tinkering to get it there, I've had scholes in there at one point but he had to go to make way for 2 or 3 others, also tried Zamora, Heskey, M. Owen, M. Bent and Caroll up front.
(Think owen and scholes will be back when I can afford them)
http://www.skynetsoftware.com/PESTome/ has been a god send when looking for specific types of players. (the chap that made this is a genius as far as I'm concerned)
If your after a bit more speed down the wings Kieran Richardson and Jermaine Pennant are relatively cheap too, they just didnt fit my style of play so had to go. Onhua's worth a look at CB only £2.6m and pace of 90 so good for covering the endless through balls, or even Anton Ferdinand not as quick but better on the ball.

Yeah, I do appreciate the effort that's gone in to some of the 'theme teams' think that' something I'm gonna look at once I've got bored of my team at the moment.
I think I've ruined the balance of my team suddenly- had been saving for ages, reaching knockouts of tournaments and got enough to buy Tevez. However he didn't work out, bought eto'o and the same thing happened so sold him and bought Higuain, Fellaini and Bellamy back. Higuain hasn't worked out and Fellaini is ok in DM when L Diarra is out but too slow for my wings. Have traded in Higuain for Walcott and Ferdinand so my team is now fairly even all over the pitch but I'm not scoring like I used to- don't know if that's just me or my team structure now! Gonna have a look at Defoe as a speed merchant and pos bring in Pepe at the back who's pretty decent. Dropped down to Div 3, gonna see if cups are a bit easier but the teams seem at a pretty similar standard to Div 2, no real level difference I've seen so far
