Fm 2006

Im 5 points clear. My record is played 21, won 17, drawn 3 and lost 1. Rooney has better than a goal a game! :eek:

Im going for the title Briggsey!
 
Who did you lose against?

And Briggsey, how much did you get Iaquinta for? He's the guy from Udinese, right?

Iaquinta is an absolute gem, got him for ?13.5m scores goals galore with Henry, they both scored 30+ despite us finishing 5th in my first season. Weak point was at the back, conceded too many, but it was the good runs at the end of the season that got us up the top or I would of been screwed!

During pre-season the mighty England won the World Cup, and history repeated itself; we beat Germany 5-1 in the final!!!

For 2006/07 season I strengthened the squad, bringing in a new GK (cant remember his name but its the highly rated Cameroon keeper from Espanyol) also got Woodgate for a bargain. Denilson, Ze Roberto and Deisler all came on free transfers and at the moment im looking for a defensive midfielder and left back as back up to Gilberto and Cole.

Any suggestions are most welcome there!!
 
Damn the irony!! In my Arsenal game I chose to be "realistic" and so I bought Govou(a french player :p) after I seriously considered Iaquinta.

Some top class youngsters:

Lebohang Mokoena - You can buy him for 50k and in a few weeks he's worth 10M!
Freddy Guarin - Great young CDM.
Javier Mascherano - Slightly expensive, but imo the best CDM in the game(Briggsey, you MUST get this guy as your CDM, he is a legend)
Rio Mavuba - Good utility player
Ahmed Yahiaoui - Good utility player
Sanli Tuncay - Expensive, but BRILLIANT. One of the best AM's in the game.
Eduardo Costa - In his price range, one of the best CDM's.
Daniele De Rossi - Amazing italian midfielder.
Alessio Cerci - Will become a legend in a few years.
Renato - Great Brazillian full back.
Dede - Superb Left Back.
Daniele Bonera - Versatile defender.
Carlos Tevez - Argentinian Wonderkid
Fernando Cavenaghi - Argentinian Wonderkid.

So I suggest Mascherano, De Rossi, and Costa for your CDM. For your LB position, I suggest either Renato or Dede. Both are class.
I'll post some more in the next few days! :)

Maschareno has always been quality on these games, am I right in saying he starts at Corinthians? If not then I think Ive been beaten to him. I tried for Carlos Tevez but he went to Barca and with Dede I think he's just as good as Cole and I dont want to have a tough decision of which one to play! Id rather have a left back thats good but not as good as Ashley. Ive got too many AM, what I lack is a quality back up striker. Henry and Iaquinta are both 20+ goal scorers but when one of them is injured the other is relied upon for goals which isnt helping. Bergkamp is getting on and ive sent Van Persie to Everton for the season so a decent striker is what I need too!
 
Yep, Mascherano starts at Corinthians. For a good backup striker you should give Lebohang Mokoena a go. He's really versatile, can play in many attacking positions, and he's a very effective sub! There's a 75% chance he can score if you bring him on as a sub. ;) And he's only 18, and you can buy him for like 50k.

Any problems with a work permit for him because it seems like he may be african?
 
In FM 05 I did have to struggle for a work permit, but generally if you appeal they do give him one. :)
 
Mokoena gets a work permit quite easily.

I've only done one season so far as Wolves, I finished 8th after being 5th with a game to go. Now I'm being Liverpool, have got through the first and second Champs League qualifiers with ease (Cisse is on fire!) and I've to play Basel in the third round. Really loving the game, definatley reccomend it to anyone.

I signed Mokoena, quite dissapointing really, hasnt done anything. Same cant be said for Masceranho though, he's been awesome and his long distance shooting is amazing! He's scored some screamers!
 
I won every game till now (december) with Arsenal and drew about 3...
 
quite far ahead u the game u gave me and i was playing got mucked up and doesnt work so i have started again but its not as good as ur one still v good
