[MrB]

Decent signings there, that passing will benefit you in the long term. Hopefully you'll get quick pops to passable PM. You'll need to work on stamina though for them to be effective in your team.

Here's my two new guys that will hopefully push me to promotion this season:

James Harrison
TSI = 25 170 , 25 years, excellent form
Has weak experience and weak leadership abilities [Powerful]

Stamina: solid Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: wretched Passing: inadequate
Winger: inadequate Defending: inadequate
Scoring: magnificent Set pieces: weak

Harold Franssen
TSI = 15 190 , 28 years, excellent form
Has formidable experience and poor leadership abilities

Stamina: excellent Keeper: outstanding
Playmaking: disastrous Passing: poor
Winger: wretched Defending: disastrous
Scoring: disastrous Set pieces: wretched

Franssen's experience makes him as good as a magnificent which is handy!

 

[blues_r_best]

How much did they cost you?

 

[blues_r_best]

£2.4 million for the both, looking at your transfer history.

Bidding for a player very similar to your striker, but a bit younger. Good to see I haven't gone overboard on price just yet.

 

[fredheim_holm]

oh dear, you guys are quite good.

how long have you been doing it to get to that level of money?

 

[blues_r_best]

Forever.

Quite literally.

 

[Grayson]

Dont worry fh, me and sufcintheprem are more your level. I have 500k in the bank at the mo, after a couple of seasons you'll be able to afford passable/solid trainees and hopefully the money will start to come in more. Next season I'm selling a few players and then getting a fresh batch of 17 year olds, especially if I dont get promoted.

 

[fredheim_holm]

p.s. what did you get ur booking for? (to blues_r_best)

 

[sufcintheprem]

My latest signing is this guy although I think I got mugged when I spotted his TSI. For 30,000, what do we reckon it should be?

Very true. My training regime's been a shambles so I've gone nowhere really. All I've managed to do is get in a decent winger for about half a million and a striker who now seems scared to shoot!

I'm well aware of how much I've benefitted from having a few lucky breaks in this league though. I've got no right to be second best with my team but that may well be the case fairly soon (even if I am about a tenth of the squad TSI of the top guy!!)

aah cool, well i think my next step (when i can afford it) will be to improve my coach to the next level up, i think he's passable with poor leadership.

anyway, dont want to make more transfers, i better close hattrick down and play fm.

(p.s. i will be going college soon, i don't always have this amount of free time.)

For the guess

For Fred's suggestion that you crashed the site because you personally came on here too much...

These are the four beauties I've purchased this month that will see me finally get promoted

Paid £390K for this one - a little bit over the odds and as I'm not training him possibly would have been better investing in someone older but I have plenty of time to build his experience in matches against weaker opposition.

If you dont **** your league with those players ORM you should be shot!

I have one tough team that has finished #1 for the last two years. He trains PM and has a decent midfield - I'd guess at one brilliant, one magnificent and one world class. As two of them are 21 I assume he's waiting for one more pop to sell them both. I'm playing him in two weeks time and last year I took four points from him so I'm reasonably confident.
