    I've started a new game to try and resurrect "Super Depor". Got promoted in the first season, but had to lay off a lot of players due to the financial problems. First season in La Liga, and I'm given no transfer budget and a wage budget of £150K. I've played 5, lost 4 and won 1 so far, but there is hope as I have held on to the magical Guardado and signed Carlos Fierro on a free. The club still has an outstanding loan of £71M <yikes>, but I've stuck to my budgets and may be able to sell Fierro on for a large sum in the future. This is by far the most difficult job I've had on this game.

    Not sure what year and what are their stats at that point and who is getting more goals, you have to consider all them aspects, like with Rodriguez he is **** for me now.

    Good choice, I think Billy Sharp is the best option as Frazer is injury prone on there I think.

    Is it possible to filter players by stats rather than attributes as good attributes aren't always a guarantee of quality? Is it also possible to see/filter the stats from the previous seasons as I've made some poor signings with only attributes or a minimal number of games to back them up.

    Martin, Chaplow, Reeves all need to be improved (off the top of my head), and maybe some of the youngsters like McQueen & Moore (although I doubt this personally)

    Our FM researcher is one of the best IMO. Tends to get it spot on, I reckon he'll boost Chaplow now he's had a full season to look at him.

    The FM researcher is incredibly biased towards Saints, look at FM10 when Markus first took over and we were like Man City on the game. I know that Saints are rated as the 16th best squad in the Championship on the current updates ability wise, and alot of the players will be getting big boosts to make Saints one of the top 6 sides, as reflected irl.
