Signed a young Bulgarian on a free transfer, Tsvetsomir Todorov. Absolute class player, I signed him to replace Joe Cole but he is currently playing better than Lampard so now I won't have to spend the big bucks on Marek Hamsik

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

I'm not sure where the weak points are, you'll have to figure that out.
CM's: Veloso, Hamsik, Moutinho.
AM's: Di Maria, Mata, Juan Manuel Vargas (Can play all along left side).
DC's: Sakho, Marcano, Chivu.
Off the top of my head...I'm not good at remembering names lol

Sorry too be a pain. But just downloaded FM 08 and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some wonderkids.

But not the general ones like Aguero and Pato some really unknown ones that are a real steal. If it's not too much of a hassle. Any 09 players would be good as im guessing they wouldn't change too much between games.

That's an insane ammount of work, Fredsta. You'll take ages working with the database. Can you upload the database edit when you're done?

Wading my way through the January transfer window. Don't know what to do about strengthening the Liverpool squad. I think I'll sign Gladstone to replace Kyrgiakos.


Yeah I have created one team so far and it is going to be an enormous task but I finish school on Friday so I will have plenty of time.

I have never given HAL a go in FM but I am going to create a Victory save when I cbf'f, can anyone recomend some good A League level players including imports? I had a play with a Victory save the other day but my wage bill was too high so I couldnt continue with squad registration so i had to quit but I had signed Viduka, Vidosic, Skoko, Spase Dilevski and Josh Rose as well as Michael Ball

I cut out a lot of dead wood including my entire forward line and vrought in the following players.
Josip Skoko
Mark Viduka
Dario Vidosic
Willy Topp (looks very promisisng for A League level)
Ante Rozic (a 23 y.o Croatian CB with good stats and Aussie citizenship)
Kasey Wehrman
Josh Rose
Spase Dilevski
and a few others, mostly on frees.
Im negotiating with a Dutch LW as I have none and this guy has two caps for the Netherlands and is only 26 but he is wanting way too much but he has good stats for A League level

In 08 there was a guy called Michel Schmoller who was an awesome CB/DM for A-League level. Don't know what's happened to him now. He's not half as good as he used to be though.

Yeah I just had my first A League game and beat Central Coast 5-0. Willy Topp got the first with a simple tap in then Vidosic got a hat trick before my new new Spansih winger completed the rout in the 91st.
Lined up like this.
--------------Moss----------------
--Sukha--Vargas*--Rozic--Michael Ball
---------Skoko-----Wehrman---------
---Kruse-----------------Spanish winger
----------Topp*------Vidosic---------

Vargas subbed for Leijer and Topp subbed for Viduka

i am cruising in my second season with villarrel. we are currently second, 3 points behind madrid. i also finshed top of my chanmpions league gruop which had inter in it. i signed daniel cavarlho on a free but have ti pay 7mil in compensation. i am starting to think that it wasnt a smart buy. i also signed santa cruz for 7 mil.

is there any one that is young and cheap, round the 2 mil mark, that will turn out pretty decent?

Four games into the season and I am dominating as is Dario Vidosic who now has 10 goals in four appearances including succesive hattricks in my opening two games he is an absolute star. I have scored 14 goals in my opening four games and conceded two just recently to Perth, still top of the ladder still on a winning streak but the smaller bench is getting to me as I find the problem with my squad is versatility, I have players for key positions but not many who can play in two or more and in my last game against Perth I had five injuries, four before half time

When I had my Sydney FC game in the FM10 demo Vidosic has no intention of joining the club :/
Is it a Melbourne thing?
