Finished 3rd with Djuricic coming runner up in player of the year. Signing Lacazette from Lyon and Facundo Ferreyra. Does anyone know a decent CM with good stamina and fitness? Don't mind how much but nice and young! 5th season btw...
Hmmm, could put Rasmus Elm there, and then buy an AM. Pastore want to leave AC Milan, but it will take up a chunk of my budget. Tempting though, what to do?
Saints 2-2 Sunderland Saints 1-0 Birmingham Derby 0-3 Saints Everton 2-0 Saints Saints 2-1 Wolves Top scorer: Lambert, Hooiveld (2) Top performer: Hooiveld (7.54) League position: 5th
Currently Elm and Fellaini, but just accepted a 16m offer from Valencia for Fellaini, so could get Pastore and use him as a playmaker.
Had a £20m bid accepted for Pastore, and he's willing to come. I think that's the most I've ever spent on a player in FM!
He'd better be with the kind of money I'm paying him! Wait, as I'm typing he just scored his 3rd goal in 2 pre-season games.
On my man city fm 2011 save (when I was learning the game) he became the best player in the world by some distance.
Cheers for the advice on teams to manager a few pages back. Funnily enough I ended up getting hold of a copy of Championship Manger 2 (96/97) English and Scottish leagues and managed Rangers as I used to when I was a kid! (Big budget, easy league...) and managed to win the European Cup, League and League Cup in the first season. Have a pretty successful second season too but decided to give Saints ago, had a look at the squad and makes me wonder how we used to stay up back then! Going to be a challenge with a £1M budget!
