Nice one CC.

 

[CaptainCabinet]

Very nice if I do say so myself, and my first pre-season "confidence winner" served it's purpose;

I'm so cool :mellow:

 

[Barry]

Taye Taiwo is pretty good early on.

 

[nickpring]

He turns out class ff you give him enough games. Him and Fabregas will form a great partnership. Although you could sell him and buy Micha Richards and stick him in midfield with Fabregas, which would be just as good.

Is he as good as or better than Jean II Makoun? I signed him in my first season and he was terrific all season, and has started my second very well.

:w00t

Can't even believe I have so much money (although the squad needs a bit of strengthening at the end of the present season):

In case anyone is wondering, this is a game without any editing and the reason profit is so high for the present year is because of a takeover.

 

[Nedy]

Wow, 193M!! Who will you buy dude? Whit that money you can do disasters in the market!.

Also, look as your "Profit": 130M. Thats huge! In what year are you?

2009/10 - got Marcelo Gomez coming in from River for £10m and a couple of lesser known attacking midfielders as Seedorf, Ambrosini and Gattuso are now old and under-performing. Marcelo is constantly injured as is Iaquinta now. Problem is nobody wants to buy Suazo or Ricardo Oliveira - or even Daniele Bonera or Christian Abbiati :mellow:

Forgot to say, having bought Bale for £5.5m and then allowed Inter co-ownership for £2.8m, both they and I accepted £10m bids for Arsenal who completed his £20m at the start of 2009/10 :laugh: - he played only one game for my senior side as he's only 20.

My senior squad with the first choice(s) at the start is:

GK: Amelia, Dida, Abbiati huh, Coppola huh, Miolli (co-owned by and playing at Torino), Scribe, Favaretto, Heger (regen?) and one other.
RB: Zaccardo, Cassani, Schmiedebach, some Scandinavian guy arriving in December
LB: Chiellini, Marcelo, Modesto
CB: Kaladze, Nesta, Coloccini, Bonera no
DM: Pirlo, Gattuso, Ambrosini, Donati, Sunny (co-owned by and playing at Torino)
AM: Gourcuff, Elano, Luis Jimenez, Peter, Rosina (co-owned by and playing at Torino), Buonanotte (coming at end of season)
CF: Gilardino, Iaquinta, Okaka, Suazo, Ricardo Oliveira, Gomez (coming at end of season)

The best players in my youth ranks are Szabo, Pedro and Rivaldo (out on loan with my other manager at PSG) all of whom should end up as regulars in my first-team in a year or two.

Goalkeeping department is rather weak. Amelia's form is inconsistent as is Dida's now. Coppola and Abbiati aren't good enough but I can't get rid of them and the rest are all young but have seemingly huge potential and are out on loan throughout Italy.

 

[Diao]

Well I've won everything possible as Liverpool apart from the FA Cup and UEFA Cup.

Premiership
Carling Cup
Champions League (3)
World Club Championship
Community Shield

Okaka is a beast, I'm in season 2012/2013 now, Okaka 65 prem goals in 90 prem games, and nearly averging 1 goal a game in all comps.

 

[nath_scfc]

£193m :mellow: I'm mid-takeover, doubt I'll be so lucky though!

EDIT: Seems not, just come in that the new board will appoint Glenn Hoddle if they complete the takeover.

EDIT 2:

Came 4th in the league, after some shocking injuries but a late push sent me up the league. Just beat Leicester 3-0 away in the first leg of the play-offs. Second one coming up...

 

[Sweey]

I had that message when the new board came in - kept my £132m budget and now raised it to £193m after deciding to keep me on. Was rather concerned before though.

 

[Dan]

I'm on fire on this season, only lost one league game (Away to Arsenal*), I'm just about to go into the Christmas period, Charlton (H), Watford (H) Sheff UTD (A) and West Ham (H) I don't know where I'm going to get a point there like. I'm also in the Semis of the CC against Chelsea :| but the winner will play Ipswich or Swansea, so it's a guaranteed trophy if I can beat Chelsea. I also play Steaua in the CL.

*That defeat was a joke, Henry had an orange injury! Twisted ankle! 51% fit! Yet he still scores, which is a fucking joke considering if you play an injured player or you get an injury mid match, your player plays like donkey shite. :realmad:

 

[nath_scfc]

Board gave me some extra funds like. :happy:

Won me play-offs and got promoted, and as a result, chairman changed his mind and liked me. Yas!

Need a right-back because I got a great offer for Tye Mears and as such only have Hoefkens. Put a couple of bids in for Ratinho and it seems a no-go at the moment.

Got a few players in though at the minute, this french fella on a free who me scout rated Jimmy Roye, Sultan Cem for £800k, Solano for free, Liverpool sent me Jack Hobbs, and Emilliano Vecchio.

O'Neill fell-out with Luke Moore and he was transfer listed by request, and I sneaked in and nicked him. :mellow: Still bamboozled as to how I pulled that off. Used the money from selling Tsvetan Genkov.

Got a loan bid for Pennant accepted, just praised him too and he likes me now :happy:

First Premiership fixture is Chelsea away... baptism of fire and all that jazz.

So yeah, right-backs folks - get your thinking caps on.

Can anyone tell me how to put this patch into the game please?

Cheers

Download it, then run it...

 

[El Beatle]

I am going to start an online game with some guys I know. I have been allocated Real Madrid and was looking for some advice regarding potential buys. Some cheap good midfielders and other young players would be great.

Any ideas who to look out for, any advice would be great.

Al Bangura (Watford) turns into a class DM

 

[Top Gun]

Just finished the 2010 World Cup as England, I had Ireland, Uruguay and Japan in the group. I beat Ireland 4-1 with Rooney getting a hat-trick and Gerrard getting the other. Then I beat Uruguay 1-0 with Rooney scoring in the 90th minute. I had qualified for the knockout stages so played my B team beating Japan 3-0 with goals from SWP and Alan Smith got 2 with Neville missing a penalty. I got Brazil in the second round and beat them 3-0 with goals from Lampard, Gerrard and Rooney, I then got the Argies in the Q Finals beating them 3-0 with 2 goals from Defoe and 1 from Rooney. I then got Romania so I thought it was an easy game into the final but I lost to them on penalties after a 1-1 draw in normal time, Rooney scored. I beat Spain 2-1 in the 3rd place play off with 2 goals from Rooney.

Rooney got the Golden Boot, with Gerrard getting the Golden Ball (Rooney and Joe Cole came second and third respectively).

 

[Dan]

My season is going down the shitter, I've still only lost 1 in the league but performances and results have been awful. I have 6 games to go and I play Chelsea next :| They are above me on GD, they've also lost 7! But with me drawing too many, they caught up. :no: Kuyt has played 41 games, doesn't sound a lot, but he's knackred, I can't rest him either what with Bellamy and Owen* still not at 100%. I just need a fucking win to get morale back up!

Fixtures;
