Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
Ye I go on holiday for 1 match not loads of days. I've just finished pre-season and won 2 matches and drawn 1 match. My first game is against Southampton, second with Everton and third against Portsmouth.

Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
Ive started my 2nd season with Newcastle, came 6th last season after loosing to man city 4-1 and lost to arsenal 6-4, but Ive still made UEFA Cup which I really want to win to get into champions league! I bought Theo Walcott for 52 Mill which I was happy about!
What do you guys do when A player wants to leave your club for another 1? I had Owen want to go to liverpool but said no as he was the leagues top scorer!

Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
How the fuck did you get 52 to use on Walcott?
Waste of money tbh.
I cruised through with Barca, only losing one match and ending on 99 points with a PD of +76. So easy, I am at the start of season 2 with this team
Keepers: Victor Valdes, Robert Enke
Defenders: Daniel Alves, Antonio Barragan, Carles Puyol, Andrea Barzagli, Gabriel Milito, Rafael Marquez, Eric Abidal, Maxwell
Midfielders: Miguel Veloso, Yaya Toure, Xavi, Andres Iniesta, Eidur Gudjohnsen, Matias Fernandez, Ronaldinho, Ricardo Quaresma, Lionel Messi, Iago, Giovanni Dos Santos
Strikers: Samuel Eto'o, Thierry Henry, Javier Saviola, Bojan
Expecting to cruise again although both Madrid's, Villarreal and even Valencia are splashing the cash on some good players.

Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
Reney. Never mind the other guy. Where the hell did you get the money to spend on some of those players.
52 million on Walcott from the other guy. I don't believe it TBH

Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
It's Barcelona?
I said I can win the title, they gave me 25million to spend and I got it increased to like 50million.
Maxwell cost me 5.5, he was transfers listed, Quaresma was unhappy and I got him for 8, Enke for 6.25. Barzagli was 10 and then I offered Sevilla 20m + Edmilson, Joquera and Thuram to get him.
I got Saviola on a free at the start of the second season. And Barragan for like 3. Easy pickings tbf.

Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
What football manager is this you are playing. Unless you don't have the January update because in mines you can't get Quaresma for less than 10m. Maxwell is very, very hard to get. Saviola is not on a free at the start as he is at Real Madrid.
And Barca only get like 13.5million

I did sell players and got given extra funds because I was keeping the bank balance "Extremely Healthy".
Structured deals including Percent of Next Sale and Monthly Installments work quite alot if you negotiate properly.
And I said I got Saviola at the second season, Real released him because they only used him once the whole first season. Dunno why but hey, I saw he was free and was like "GIMME".

Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
I didn't see you had said you got Saviola at the start of the second season. And if you had explained thats what you had done i would have understood more!
Still the monthly Installments aren't great as you still get the money took out of your budget straight away TBH!

Re: **Official Football Manager Thread**
I just found out that I am playing Chelsea in league, then Chelsea in league cup 3 days later and then Arsenal 3 days after that. Played 7 games already and it's been decent as I've won 6 and drawn 1. Currently 1st but joint with Liverpool.
