    I too would be concerned if we did make all our signings from the Eredivisie, but I don't think we will. Ron has coached in other countries before (only two I think, but still!) so it's not as if he will be hellbent on signing players and only players who come from there. Yes, he will feel comfortable signing some, he knows them best, and has seen them most recently as that is where he has just come from. We also have our scouting team/transfer committee who will have been looking at all manner of options one hopes.

    I know loans in and out are not really our style, but maybe big Ron can use his credentials at Barca and get us in a Deulofeu type signing.

    If this was FM I'd have spent every penny by now and asked the board for more. Come on Ron!

    But would you have 'leaked to the press' if they'd said no? (I've never done that on FM, far too scared).

    didn't have that option last time I played FM... probably the 2005 or 2007 version!

    I do that all the time cause I'm a club legend so they just give me what I want if I bitch about it enough.

    Don't do that. Just put him on an incredibly heavy training schedule and stick him in the reserves.

    I don't get enough time for FM. :( Since I bought it I've got to the beginning of my third season with St Albans.

    I sold Lallana to Spurs for 20m he then left them and joined Wolves in the Champ.

    Surely you can set his nickname to Lord Twatbeard?

    Or can someone with the editor just go in and change his name.

    Has anyone heard the rumour regarding witsel? I'm struggling to belive zenit would a 20 million pound hit on a player. Anyone have any idea why they might?

    Schar and Rodriguez would be exceptional signings for us.

    It's coming from a person who's a known bullshitter, disregard it.

    However, there's no way Witsel was ever worth 40 million Euros, so if he ever goes they will be making a loss.
