    Can't believe he was sold for so little. In a normal game where I actually had money and players wanting to move to me I'd have spent a lot more. £4m is so little for somebody with those attributes.
    He's only 20 as well, imagine him in 3 seasons.

    The last time I lost at home was over 2 and half years ago. Record since then has been 65 wins, 4 draws, 0 losses (that includes hosting Madrid, Barca, Bayern, PSG, Lyon, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham in Europe). San Siro is a fortress. :sexface:

    I do think it's a bit unfair that the Super Cup is played at the San Siro though, ive won it 6 times in a row now and 7 times in 8 seasons. :awesome:

    Im actually on for the sextuple this year too. I won the Scudetto, Coppa, CL, Super Cup, European Super Cup and ive got the Club World Championship to come. :beard:

    I don't want to. He'll be knocking goals against me for fun.

    I had to scrape together a much larger fee more a less able strike because he wouldn't move to me.

    see was wondering what would you play him as
    id probably push for a lone striker on CF casue althought the stats arnt all great hed be very capable of it
    but i do get the feeling i try to force that role on players who really arnt suited

    After I left Liverpool, Mourinho got the managers job. Now that he has left, they've gone for John Heitinga. :facepalm2:

    When you signed Ozil a while back, did you have much luck changing his position? Just signed him for £10m.

    Benitez got the Madrid job and has transfer listed most AMs. :mmm:

    Didn't even take a full season for him to become a natural CM. I haven't removed him from the training though as I did that with Neymar once and he quickly went back to accomplished :facepalm2:

    Edit: Its ridiculous how Ozil (and Wilshere) always end up going for ridiculously cheap. I missed on Wilshere for a free on my game :facepalm2: He probably wouldn't have started but his wages were low and it would have saved letting Wolves (who have been taken over by a tycoon) getting him

    Oh, yes. This has made my day - Ozil coming in to replace Carrick, for £6m. :coma:

    My central mid options, for three positions - either with a DM or AM depending on the fixture, fitness: Ozil, Wilshere, Fletcher, Jenssen, Verratti, Honda, Mikel, Bender, Cleverley, Felipe Anderson. And Pogba in the reserves.

    Not too shabby. Mind you, just after I signed Ozil using all my budget Hernandez and Rooney picked up knocks, so now Welbeck is my only striker, with young as back up. I have one youth team striker.

    Just won the Prem in season two.

    On goal difference (+68), with City second (+61) and United third (+59). All on 80 points. :lol:

    Cavani finishes as top scorer too, with 35 PL goals. Kept RvP out of the starting line-up all season. :coma:

    Just signed Di Maria from Real for £13m, Obi from Inter and Lindegaard from Utd on frees, and Balzaretti from Palermo for £6m. Didn't follow up on Oezil.

    Very strong squad now.

    10 players for 3 positions? A bit much...

    Atm I play 1 4-2-3-1. I have 4 CM's, 2 AM's, 4 Wingers, 2 Strikers and Muniain who can cover at LW, AM and Striker. Any more than that and I find that they don't get enough game time to develop properly.

    Well, Verratti and F. Anderson are used sparingly. And Cleverley is used anywhere in midfield or on the wings. Jenssen may be sold on in the summer. I couldn't turn down the chance to sign Wilshere or Ozil, which has bloated the ranks a tad.

    Real offered £15m for Handanovic, which I naturally accepted with Szczesny being pretty much as good as him now.

    Replaced him with an £8m 18-year-old Russian regen with a higher PA than Szcz. :coma:

    FINALLY won the Champions League and I CANNOT contain my excitement!! Also won the league on 101 points. Smoked Inter 3-0 comfortably in the final.

    This is my 4th season on this save I think and will leave it here.

    I'm 3 seasons in - any decent recommendations for a Ball Winning/Box-to-Box mid with some playmaking ability, that can work with a couple advanced playmakers and the wingers?
    Fletcher's getting old...

    ALSO I have now gone 101 games undefeated in all competitions. WOO

    Verratti. Can play DM/CM/AM, all as natural positions.
