The "Look who I bought!" Thread

OUT:

For 1 102 500 GBP

IN:

For 450 513 GBP

For 716 625 GBP

Total outlay: 63 638 GBP. And you wonder why I won the Transfer Guru award?

 

[Shark]

Yeah... well... I was a close second...

errr, not bad, but they're both about to retire paul?

To add to the Ralfster, picked up my next long-term star prospect for the epl assault next season (and beyond). Apparently has partials in speed and ball control too. Tasty though not cheap!

Pretty happy with my team now, sneaking up towards 5m team value although 2 damned good 30 yr olds to think about whether / when to replace.

Great buy there Doug! After somehow selling three 30-year olds in a big oldie clearout for a combined £1.8m, I also splashed out on a long-term Argie star, not dissimilar to your own. Cost me 100k less, at 1m.

I bloody hope he's not maxed in speed. But if he's not, he has the potential to be great - still only 26, too.

I now have a task on my hands - to find two English players who will replace Flynn and Townshend for 900k...

But at the end of the day, i now have a fairly young team... 22, 23, 26, 27, 27, 27, 28, 28, cough33cough...

 

[moneybags]

Good work, hope he's improving in speed!

Can't believe you managed to get all that cash for your oldies, makes me think about selling Hehir and Peppin (both 30 now) before they completely lose their value.

Another new guy, cost me 873k. Reminds me of Surreal's Mcauley when he bought him Although he had more 6s... hmm. Anyways, hoping he's still training in speed.

 

[myfatcat]

1 572 743 GBP but he is one of the top three midfielders England have available

 

[Shark]

10 Exp as well, nice. Guessing you'll be training intel

 

[moneybags]

I'd have gone for him too if i could have raised the cash :boohoo:

Will take solace sipping champers out of my trophy and thinking of his wages

 

[yahmum]

my new buy for 2million aussie, getting him 5th stam. What think, not in same league as u damb top level poms though He goes well with my aussie defender matthes, theyll eb long term backbone of my defence.

 

[moneybags]

Like him, reminds me of my man Peppin.

 

[Shark]

Yeah, nice buy.

 

[yahmum]

he is another latest buy he 31 but fills the gap in nicely. Cost 651k Australian

 

[yahmum]

my newest buy for 866k Aussie, only got 4 speed but my 9 speed coach will get that up nicely and age not that bad either

 

[Shark]

And so the rebuilding begins... old players only...

Picked up this guy for only 450k. A nice start! More to come, watch this space.

 

[Shark]

Signing #2. Cost 525k.

Still have 2.25m left

 

[Mutt]

nice, i guess your not planning on sticking in the game much longer this time with the older players?

 

[Shark]

Yeah I am... but for the duration I have the players, I will be able to save up money and buy new ones before they retire.

 

[moneybags]

the mfc strategy, interesting.... especially if crew change the retirement rules

nice players for the pricing

 

[Shark]

500k. Why? I don't know, i was bored. His 9 shooting and 7 Bc will make him a good centre forward. Needs more speed though.
