Playing as sevilla right now was expected to play Europa am coming second in the league, haven't lost a game yet although i went on a run of 7 draws in a row, had to change may tacticts and I have won 6 games in a row.

My tactic is amazing I can not lose even barca and real can't beat me.

Also I sold most of my good players and bought replacements.

I'm on my iPod so I can't post my squad or tactic but if any one is intrested I'll do it later.

I'll be interested nr.

Fucking Laurito. He played half a season under me last season and Manchester United came knocking and he went to them. He got shitty cause I rejected their enquiry then they came in with $100M (AUS) offer which was good anyway, albeit 70mil of it is over 1 or 2 years. I bought an arguably better replacement anyways. For 35mil. A regen who has stats suited to a great target, what I need to suit my wide play. Get balls into him and he will score them:
Dribbling- 16
First Touch - 17
Finishing - 16
Heading - 17
Jumping - 19
Strength - 19
Off the ball - 17
Anticipation - 16

He's only 22 as well :D He's not too slow either, 14 acceleration and 13 pace.

'The Plymouth board have paid off 4million of the clubs debts to save the club from receivership'.

The club is still in 2mil debt :lol:.

Been rebuilding the squad, picked up a few bargain buys. A guy from PSV worth 1mil was listed for 70k and I snagged him, needed a new RB as well. Getting rid of all the deadwood. Looking at finishing around 15th this year.

Found another gem
Derek boateng an Mc Dm from the israely league for a 170k and is my fourth choice midfielder after van der vart, steven defour and veloso easily good enough for any team outside the top4 and good backup for top4 teams also i think he is willing to play in any league so might even play league 1.

July 1st has rolled by and all the transfers have come through.

Very very happy with where my team is at. Need just a few more little signings as cover (gonna plan on those being loans, im dangerously close to my wage budget).

Also, realised Im creating a Dutch invasion. Six dutchmen in my squad, and they are all part of my preferred first 11. Does that help chemistry and stuff between them?

Alright cool.

This is the guy I just bought, cost me 500k. Stoked with that, should rip up in CCC.




And these are the two guys that ripped up for me last year. Sarki with 20 assists, Tuyp with 20 goals.

Great players for that level imno.

Got back from the GC last night and have been playing FM for hours since.
Won the CCC by a huge margin had it wrapped up ages ago though and went the season undefeated. I won MOTY only dropping MOTM twice and Doyle wins POTY.
The following players joined in July-Saivet, Gignac and Laurito.
The following players have been signed since-
Marek Jankulovski from Milan for 100k
Fleck from Rangers for 2.3mil
A 17 y.o Italian kid at Inter who I have been scouting for ages called Luca Tremolada for 1.8mil he plays both wings and has pretty good stats for his age
Another young Italian kid this time from the Celtic reserves, has some good stats so I signed him for 20k and will loan him till he gets better and use him as first team cover or transfer bait, Nene from Monaco on a season loan can play both wings
Ever Banega from Real Madrid for only 2mil. Lining up like this atm
--------------Hahneman-----------------
--Santon---Balde----Yezerskiy-Jankulovski
-Saivet--Zucculini---Banega--Nene/Fleck
----------Laurito----Doyle/Gignac-------

I have a selection headache for the forward line atm though as Laurito has 2 goals in 2 games of the EPL, Gignac has 1 goal and one assist in one game while Doyle has two assists. Originaly I was lining up with Doyle and Gignac starting and bringing Laurito on as a super sub but he has scored in every game so far including pre season so I feel he has earnt a starting spot and Gignac is injured atm but should be back within weeks and has been prolific pre season but Doyle scored 30 goals and got 17 assists last season and has been scoring and assisting thus far. I think I will definitely have to improve my defence when I get the funds to do it as although Balde and Yezerskiy are quality they are ageing as is Jankulovski and Hahneman will have to replaced seasons end imo, attributes wise Federici is better but Hahneman performs extremely well, has an average rating of 8.22 this seaosn and had it at 7.9 last season

First two games of the EPl season were a 2-1 win over West Brom, gaols to Gignac and Laurito
And a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa goal to Lurito

Yeah well he is alright in mine atm and Im hoping with regular game time he will be able to improve rather than rot in the reserves and loaned to lower Italian games. Good cover at least untill I can sign more establsished players when my funds, reputation and status lifts as we are only EPL new boys. I narrowly missed out on signing Jarvi Garcia from Madrid too had a 3mil bid accepted but he wanted 2k more than what the board would allow me to offer so he declined but its ok because I got Banega instead:cool:

Just had a five game losing streak in a tough lineup I played Tottenham and lost 2-1 after I was down to 10 men inside 10 minutes and they scored from the penalty then in the 48th after I made all my three subs I had a player off injured down to 9 men against a better team but I was playing better football and Laurito equalised around the 70th minute before Modric scored a 99th minute winner 9 minutes os extra time with only 4 being scheduled. Then I lost 2-3 to Liverpool with Laurito again looking good, lost to City 5-2 and United 5-1 and Bolton 1-0. Despite that Mascio got YPOTM and runner up in POTM he is in incredible form 5 goals and 7 assists for the season and despite him being Italian he also made is international debut with Brazil U20's.

I have a selection dillema up front though as Doyle is probably a certian starter now as he has 6 goals and 5 assists, Laurito has 6 goals too but is off the boil the last few games and Gignac has 4 but is getting better. Im sitting 12th on the table 10 games in after I rebounded by beating Bristol 3-0 and Everton 2-0.

I have encoutered a slight problem.

I went to JB HI-FI today to pre-order FM2010 on PC, but they also have FM2010 for PSP, which is $20 cheaper.
But IDK what to get??? I'm thinking PSP might be better becuase I can play it when I want, wherever I want.

What should I do?????????

Fuuuuuuck. I would be RAGING if that happened to me. Be careful with making all your subs too early, you dont wanna get an injury and be down a man for 25-45mins.
