Cam: I think over a number of years you can, but he loses his original best position.

I've worked with nothing

For a team that finished 5th in the PL that's nothing. I can barely improve my squad with that.

It also includes 95% of the Sturridge transfer fee, which was £5m.

Could loan Affelley, Sturridge, Thiago and Varane for next to nothing, and that would be plenty of improvement.

Affelley was available on a free last year, scouted him and he was worse than I had. I said in that very post that I just sold Sturridge because he wasn't good enough.

The other two I could look at, but I'm not really in a position where I can get anyone better on loan.

You're Chelsea are you not? Affeley is better simply because his attributes are more "FM" correct than most players. His attributes are next to perfect for the game and therefore a better player than most, despite your scuots saying otherwise. Sort of like Silva in previous versions.

Varane would improve your defence, and Thiago can be hot or cold, but generally a very good playmaker.

Sorry for causing an argument.

just signed Javi Garcia for my Forest team

If I don't qualify for the Europa League I'll be very pissed and I'll probably be sacked

Sounds ambitious. What's your team like?

Looks good. Not sure if I'd consider Griffiths good enough for an Europa League push though.

Edit:

3-0 down and the assistant has been saying since the 24th minute ("We're doing everything except lead, keep this up and things will turn around")

Greyed out players for Saint Etienne, both in their starting lineup:

last season he scored 26 goals for me, so I'm hoping he is good enough again this season. Also I have Pavlyuchenko who has scored a few goals in pre-season

lost 3-1 to CSKA Moscow in Pre-Season

yet I dominated them

I had 12 shots on target

they had 3

I'm 3 seasons in. Afellay is at Fenerbache now, he went half a season without a team, here's him and then here's what I've got.

2.5 stars


3.5 stars

I tried a half arsed effort against United away and lost 3-0.

3 at the back, Zzonked going Napoli style?

Nah it's James style.

I got these two players on a free, probably the end of my transferring.

Results so far
