new season:

 

[shokz]

I only had like £2m to spend.

And spent that all on youth and some defenders.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

Look who I've signed, he's great:

 

[shokz]

He's not in my game, I think I should've added Holland.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

This player is great:

 

[champdave]

I got Le Tallec and Pongolle on Lone, and just got Lescott on lone as well! I tried getting Abbondanzieri and Keller for goals but they wo't come so I'll try Lenny Pidgely and Luke Steele.

That Maspero dude (AM/LC) absolutely kicks ass! On my game he has 20 long shots / penalties, 18 passing, 18 set pieces. This is at the start of the game though, he is 32.

 

[shokz]

Maspero always playing at AMC in my game, takes freekicks, penalties etc, he is excellent for Serie B and below.

 

[champdave]

He plays AM LC on mine

Something really p'd me off. I offered Abbondanziere £20000 per week plus a £750000 signing bonus and £4000 match bonus and he went to FC Socheaux, where he plays 0 matches and gets payed £2000 per week, a tenth of what I was offering him for consistent football. I hope Luke Steele / Kasey Keller accepts my offer or I'll have the crappy starter keepers for the whole season.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

In my game Maspero always plays bad, with the arrival of Pienaar I think he will be in reserve squad.

Champdave: Aceval is pretty good for only about 100k at Olimpia (I think)

 

[PSVFOREVER]

Reyad is so good in my game, he is a ''must buy''

 

[shokz]

Ababio has a potential ability of 186, i didnt even know that when i bought him lol.

John Allen, you should get him.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

I only can find Kenneth Ababio, and he has potential ability of 125 in my game

 

[shokz]

I've got a different Ababio. I just did a search on a different game, and he wasnt there. Might be something to do with leagues, I don't know.

Any I'll post a screenie for you since I've got nothing else to do right now apart from playing ISS3 and CM4.

Well maybe this explains it all, he came from Ghana, a club called Asante Kotoko, that explains why I got him for only 120k.

If you have the English league on, you would be able to get John Allen.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

Looks good, shame I can't buy him

 

[PSVFOREVER]

I just found an amazing player for my squad, Rudy Carlier, his stats aren't good, but he has a potential ability of 186 in my game, he is only 17, so he will become great. He plays for AS Cannes

 

[champdave]

How do you check his potential ability once a game has started? Is there a tool/editor for this?

 

[shokz]

Damn, I've not got the France league in this game lol.

Just England, Portugal, Italy, Spain.

Serie B is tough. Its got many relegated Serie A teams in it, which makes it extra hard. I'll be in there for a couple of seasons I reckon.

Loads of contracts expire at the end of the season, Quaresma is one of them, and he is unsettled at Barcelona. Hopefully I can snap him up.

I dont know any ways of checking potential ability without using an editor which gives an advantage of the CPU.

The only way I know of and thats CMScout.

I need to sign the "new" Batigol, Luciano Figueroa

 

[PSVFOREVER]

yeah, Serie B is tough.

Is your screenie contract expiry?

 

[shokz]

Yep. It sure is.

 

[shokz]

I Just signed another batch of youngsters in the January Transfer Window of 2005.

I sold 2 players, not needed, and raised 900k, then bought about 10 brazilian youngsters, which cost a few million in compensation.

Its weird, if u have 900k transfer money, u can still run on a rampage and sign loads and compensate, but it ends up coming out of the Clubs Balance.

25 Brazilians in the youth team, whilst there are 2 Englishmen, 7 Italians, 2 Portuguese and 1 American in Freddy Adu, sitting in my youth team.

Batigol(Batistuta) is joining at the end of the 2004/05 season when his current contract expires.
Arsenal's young left-back Juan is joining at the end of his contract, thank god - because Angelo Di Livio is 38 at the moment lol.
