    I am top of the league after 7 games, don't expect to be there all season though, but I have not lost yet this season and carrying over from last season I have not lost in 20.

    I bought Zaha and Clyne in first season. (Promoted from Championship)

    Bought Allen, Ryan Bennett, Fierro and Jack Robinson on loan. (finished 3rd)

    Signed Jack Robinson permanently. Plus a couple of 5 star rated players <ok> (9 games into 3rd season and sit in 2nd, 3 points behind Man City)

    I keep on getting injuries to my best players now, I have less players than in previous seasons so I have problems which annoys me.

    My team was going so great, 22 games unbeaten carried over from last season, top, but we turn into the walking wounded, 2 players injured in the space of 4 minutes to add to the other 5 first team players, in total adding my youth players and reserves I have 18 players injured, it is a ****ing joke and to add to that, my patched up team ended up losing 1-4 at home against Chelsea, but we stayed top.

    And to top it off, due to the whole team being constantly fatigued, I only pick up 1 point from those games, meaning I'm now 10 points off 1st...

    Ok got a few transfer questions
    2012-05-02_00003.jpg
    Got an offer for this guy, 4.5 mill, got a potential of being at scott dann level (3 and half stars) currently at 2 stars. Should i accept it?

    2012-05-02_00002.jpg
    Second this guy is not wanted at barca is he worth it for like 10 - 11 mill. He is same star level as adam lallana just wondering if i should buy him

    Well it really depends on your personal management style, but I would sell the young guy with a sizeable percentage of next sale clause, and replace him with an English youngster. Mollo looks decent, but I can't really say if he's worth the money or not. It depends how badly you need someone in that position and if there are cheaper options who are equally as good. For the record, I reckon he would do a pretty good job for you.

    And if Mollo is not wanted then you might be able to haggle his price down.

    Don't sign him if he won't be regular first team, because no doubt he won't be happy to be left on the bench.

    There has been some absolutely shocking transfers in my game, a player who has a Russian name, Hungarian international signed for them for 16 million played 3 seasons got 10 goals midfielder by the way so not too bad, but left on a free to Villa and got 10 goals in 1 and a half seasons, he is good at goals but he is well over priced, I personally think he is ****, I will get a screen shot if I can find him.

    Updated, got it a bit wrong but was close, well over paid in my eyes, I have not spent anything near that outright in 7 years, in total in the last 7 years I have spent 25 million and most of that is from fees for appearances when I sign players with clauses and also the other big chunk is 24 month fees.
    I have done well with my money and Man City and clubs like them waste money, this is quiet real with how they paid so much for something ****, think or Jo and Santa Cruz

    Have you not heard of Dzsudzsak before? He recently transfered in real life for over £15m so not exactly a horrendously shocking signing, especially as he averaged over 7 every season except one (6.99)...

    Yeah I had heard of him, but I would not pay that, but the amazing thing is that players like this are signing for clubs such as Man City and Liverpool and within a few years are leaving and clubs are paying over the odds for players, I will find a few more.

    Updates, there are loads, here is a few.
    2012-05-03_00003.jpg I think this is the worst one
    2012-05-03_00004.jpg
    Liverpool again
    2012-05-03_00005.jpg
    Liverpool yet again, but also Man City sign him from them, this is so funny
    2012-05-03_00006.jpg
    2012-05-03_00007.jpg

    There are a few more which show how Tottenham ruin players and also how Aston Villa made a big mistake.

    Here is the other ones.
    View attachment 13264 I can't even explain this one, what a waste of money, why?

    Now Tottenham with 2 players who were great and they signed and did not even play much.

    Why waste so much money on players you are not going to play, not as if they did not do well as they did not give them a chance, bit like David Bentley in real life, he was a waste of money.
    Now on to the final one, Aston Villa's big mistake.
    View attachment 13267

    So there are a few big mistake, and a lot of money wasted.
