    I have got my eye on a few Brazilian youngsters as the 3 I have in my first team have done so well, 2 of them are now in the national team, they are the starting left back and right back.

    I reckon he's still got a bit of life in him.

    For a 38 year old his stamina and fitness aren't bad...

    Your attempt at emulating United bringing back Scholes? ;)

    I don't actually need him, I already had 4 class CMs.

    I'll get him to tutor one of my youngsters.

    Not worried about disrupting squad harmony? I have the chance to sign him on a free but have chosen not to for that reason.

    Also his £100k wages.

    I'd be surprised if he did disrupt it! :p

    Schneiderlin and Cork are slowly being eased out now. :(

    Well it's just that some players can get upset that there is too much competition for one place. Then Fabregas could also get upset if you sign him and don't play him often enough.

    As long as he isn't in my office every week like that whiny bitch Chamberlain, I'm not fussed. He'll get playing time for sure.

    I've been trying to sign only professional players, so on the rare occasions that they do have a moan, I can tell them aggressively that they're being unprofessional and they apologise and get back in line. Also less professional players have a tendency to tell the rest of their squad why they're upset. Professionals always say something like "this discussion doesn't have to leave this office". High morale over here :)

    Aye, my morale is consistently high.

    Half my players think they want a new challenge :(, but I set 'em straight.

    My morale is high 'cause I treat my players good. Anyone who doesn't like my selections gets told where to go. I run this **** hard :cool:

    I got bored so used the editor, put pompey in 1.7 billion debt. Plus made them have only 200 fans and a wage buget of 100 quid.

    They're not allowed to include liquidation for licensing issues or some ****. It'd be a good feature though, with phoenix clubs too.

    You could just imagine something like the headline being that you get hired as the manager but because the press conference cost so much the club ceased to exist past the first question

    They sold all of their team off, now have 11 made up players.(the ones you cant buy). Plus have a court date to see if they disappear. They have no coaches or scouts etc, only having a manager.

    Taken over Caravaca la Union, a side formed in 2011 and in the Spanish 6 division. Should be interesting.

    Just found out that I am 1000-1 to get Promotion. Oh god, what have I got myself into?
