Try for Rafael from Man Utd? Failing that, Bosingwa or Andreas Beck.

Beck is a great shout. Thanks. Rafael is the more realistic option though. Get him in on loan.

Van Der Wiel?

The mono-brow magician! Why not?
Thanks

Theres a young LB who's Brazilian, he has a double-barelled name. Andre something or along those lines.

Get Romario from Vitoria. Probably be good enough to go straight into your first team and he rapidly improves. Becomes on of the best attacking full backs in the game.

Meh. I think that he is good to be honest.

Alex Sandro!

That's the one.

Alex Sandro is a legend. Simply amazing left back.

Can someone suggest me a Newcastle formation please, and what to play Cisse and Ba as to score, cheers x

Goalkeeper

Right Back - Centreback - Centreback - Left Back

Cabaye -- Tiote

Demba Ba (inside forward) -- Ben Arfa -- Left Winger

Cisse (poacher)

Cheers mate.

Alex Sandro is great. Currently turning down a 9 million pounds offer for him from Inter.

NGL, Sandro was shit for me. How at home could he have felt? He had Pedro Botelho, Andre Santos and Rafael (GK) all at the same squad. Fucking cunt.

if anything, Portugal should be the easiest place for a Brazilian to adapt to. you don't see American/Australian players complaining about adapting to England. or Ivorian players complaining about adapting to France lol

Marcus Berg, what a player

I've spent £31m this season.

two thirds of that on a 16 year old.

How did you get a big budget with Southampton? Did you just save up the TV money for a few seasons?

It pisses me off how under rated certain Italian goalkeepers is in this game. Buffon not better than Cech? You having a laugh?

Yeah, no wages over £40,000 a week, and Cortese found a sponsorship deal worth £12m a season.

He gave me £85m to spend..

Any team I be I am just tempted to spend money. Not the 48 month deal thing though, its shit.

How do i register a player, just signed Paloschi.

If someone wants more than 25M for a player I tend to not go for him. Never signed Hazard, Goetze or Neymar for that reason.

Why would you possibly want Paloschi. Did Schnix convince you it was a good move?

Consigili

Went from a no-one, till I signed him. Got him keeper of the year 3 times in a row, he won the WC for Italy, was in team of the year twice and conceded like 19 in one league season when I had him on FM10.

italians in general are underrated in FM

ledley king, jagielka, and cahill are all better than chiellini

parker is better than de rossi

gerrard/lampard are still amongst the best MC's in the game

he's only good if you have AMC's with "tries killer balls" often behind him, i.e. Pjanic and Totti

Consigli is awesome. I'd say Fiorillo is more under-rated than him. But yeah, as Schnix said, he's been underrated in the game as well.

De Rossi is just terrible in the game period. Not even good for Italian standards, heck Palombo is better than him for crying out loud...
