Simmsy Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 What a surprise, another bid for one of my players by Arsenal.
Ashley Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 Is there anywhere I could get the latest database with up to date transfers? Also on the editor can you make the a fixture list so I can have Coventry first game?
DB11 Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 A straight 4-3-3 seemed to be the best - Although I did change to 4-4-2 when I sensed the game was trying to punish for me for the same formation - then reverted back after a few games Quick question - Do I blow £15M on Phil Jones who can play RB and CB, or 15M on Hutton and Samba? Can't afford all together obviously. What should I do - how good does Jones get? I need a quick answer as I've already delayed them all one week! Cup of tea time Samba's awesome!
shen Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 Samba's awesome! Both Samba and Jones are excellent, although Jones has age and versatility to his advantage.
Simmsy Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 Khouma Babacar becomes ridiculously good, Finishing 19 and Strength 20 are a couple of highlights for me. Bought him for Leicester in 2016, on his debut he scored twice at old trafford in a 2-0 win.

This looks good - however I'm having an annoying computer illiterate moment - I can't find the folder you put the database in (I'm on Vista and access it through Steam), and winzip won't extract the dbc file for me..................argggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggh

shen Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 I knew I shouldn't have jumped the gun. I played a great final and largely kept Spurs in check the whole game, but they got the rub of the green and got the winner in the 90th minute. So so bitter. It was a nice consolation though to beat Chelsea away in the league in the next game. Followed that up with a 4-0 win against Everton, another challenger for the CL spot allowing me to open up a four-point gap to fifth! But the rollercoaster continued with a body blow against Championship Bristol City who were absurdly lucky when beating me 0-1 in the FA Cup 6th round. Gutted as I felt it was winnable as well. Oh well, full focus on the league, let's get that fourth spot!! I picked up the Vauxhall save with five games to go in the league. As mentioned I'd been knocked out of the FA Cup by Bristol City and was still looking good in the league in 3rd place, one point ahead of Man U and four ahead of Liverpool and Everton and five ahead of Fulham. My run-in wasn't enviable though with first Tottenham away, Man City at home, Middlesbrough away, Liverpool at home and finally Reading away. I got beat convincingly 3-1 by second-placed Spurs who took their chances while my players didn't. However, I still stayed in third because of extraordinary results. Man U lost to eventually relegated Sheff Utd, Everton lost to already crowned champions Arsenal and Fulham lost to Villa. Only Liverpool managed to win. My first-choice rightback got a straight red (again) and was suspended for the rest of the season. Next I got a footballing lesson from Man City suffering my worst defeat of the year, 0-3. Man Utd lost again however, this time 3-4 to Everton, while Liverpool lost 0-2 against also to be relegated West Ham. Fulham managed a draw against Spurs. So quite unbelievably still in third place! Next up was Boro away and I was producing chance after chance after chance, but few clear cut ones. My strikeforce was seriously going cold. Swapped my January regen signing for a mis-firing summer one and just when I thought I'd completely blown it, he gets a through ball in the 93rd minute and duly slams home!! I can't believe the breaks I'm getting! Liverpool won against Reading keeping up the pressure and setting the penultimate match up for a biggie! Man Utd continued their slump, drawing against midtable Chelsea, but still just three points off with a superior GD. Everton also won again against Sunderland meaning it was getting extremely tight now. Fulham although getting a draw against Man City were now out of it. Liverpool at home. Very tense stuff. BOOM! Buonanotte gets injured with 20 seconds played! Devastated and angry for obvious reasons, on comes a tired Adam Nemec and a complete change of tactic. Very even match from start to finish. Torres rolls back the years with a great solo effort right before half-time. Strike partner Zigoni misses two guilt edged chances. My goalscoring hero from the Boro match equalizes with 25 minutes to go and the magical moment happened 8 minutes before time when Nemec clean through gets his shot parried by Pool's reserve-keeper (thank God Reina was out!) and Tardelli is quickest on the rebound to tap into an empty net. I very nervously hang on with some scares in the dying minutes, but 2-1 and that Champions League spot is very very close! Man U and Everton both won against bottom Wolves and Sheff Utd respectively giving me a three-point lead, but far inferior GD to both of them ahead of the final game. EC place confirmed. Midtable Reading away, without my right-back and Buonanotte, a draw enough to see me clinch it. Gambled by changing goalkeepers but otherwise lined up with the same tactic I changed to in the Pool game. All goes according to plan with my regen striker continuing his fine form and bringing me in the lead. Reading equalize from a corner. Regen striker does it again right on HT making it four in three. Said I was pleased which immediatly backfired, as Reading equalized from a another cross. Even worse still, they would take the lead on 64 with another terrible cock-up in defense. I thought I'd thrown it all away again and that my GK gamble was needless and ill-advised. I looked at the live league table and I couldn't believe what I was watching: Man Utd and Everton were drawing meaning I was still in third!!! I made a change and subbed Nemec, who had done squat all game, for a youth regen I'd loaned from WBA and who hadn't played since January. It was inspired. He went on to equalize in the 79th minute sparking a lot of fist pumps and chair dancing by his manager. 93rd minute and I was in attack, it was all done and dusted. Referee blows whistle.... for a penalty!! The young regen had been fouled for no reason in the box and up steps Tardelli to hammer it home. Fantastic match to finish the season and to achieve my goal a season before planned! But that wasn't all. By now Everton were winning and Man Utd were still drawing so nothing changed there, but when I looked at the live table I noticed I was SECOND! Spurs had apparently had an absolutely rotten run since beating me four games ago and only scraped home one point. I hadn't noticed this at all as I was only focusing on that CL spot and those that could catch me. Absolutely mental end to the season!! Second f***ing place with newly-promoted Vauxhall!! Unreal... It was already a wonderful season, and those cup runs along with a Euro Cup finish would've been as much as I could've hoped for, but extraordinary collapses and surprise results from all the key teams around me, gifted me that second spot. I don't think I've ever seen such a low tally for the top sides in the Prem, bar Arsenal. Final League Table 2015/2016: Uploaded with ImageShack.us
ramboacdc Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 currently 7 points clear of the drop in the premier league going into december. lost to peterborough in the league cup though! could have cried. bleeding money in the prem somehow thats never happened to me. think the club could go bust before the seasons out unless we are sold/invested in majorly.
The Doctor Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 points deductions raining down in the football league now, Forest, Cardiff & Wigan have all taken a 10 point deduction in the championship while a second spell in admin in 3 years for MK Dons has them rooted to the bottom of L2. Meanwhile Chelsea are looking good for an immediate return to the premiership following relegation last season, sitting level on points with Ipswich going into November.

The Doctor Posted 5 August 2011 Posted 5 August 2011 wow your game is warped! did you use an editor or did that really just happen? Just happened. Quite weird with Chelsea's relegation, they'd been going fine in lower mid-table until they got turned over by someone ridiculous in the FA cup (might have been Huddersfield) & then fell apart.

shen Posted 6 August 2011 Posted 6 August 2011 I've decided to play the 'bonus season' with Vauxhall anyway because I was curious whether I could do something useful in the CL or even better my performances from last season. Obviously I can't expect teams around me to drop the ball cosntantly, so it'll probably be a bit harder to just replicate my team's feats. As this is my final season though, I've gone and invested big in the squad spending £57m (incl. installments) and selling for £23.5mil (here and now), which actually means I'm only £4mil down this season. Ins: Demidov, Kara, Addison, Onuoha, Annan, Krancjar, Adebayor, Tettey, Dzagoev and five regens (including a fourth straight season-long loan for that Man U striker, ty Fergie/Mancini! Suckers...) Outs: All kinds of useless stuff or handy regen profits... Very happy with the look of my first team and got excellent depth in the squad. Had a rough start however meeting Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool, Tottenham and Bayern in my first six games and getting just 1 win and 2 draws from them. My CL group is really mean with above-mentioned Bayern, last years finalist, Napoli (who've retained Hamsik, Lavezzi and Cavani while adding a bunch of useful players) and FC Copenhagen. Bayern already beat me and I've no idea how I'm going to contain that Napoli trio...
bmt Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 Arsenal want to be Leicester on my game now. They've signed one of my players for a much overpriced amount, bid for 2 others and have now approached me with a contract to manage them. On mine they bought Andy King off me for 6 mil and sold Wilshere to me for 5 at the same time.
Simmsy Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 On mine they bought Andy King off me for 6 mil and sold Wilshere to me for 5 at the same time. They paid £10.5m to get Wickham from me when he had a £9.25m release clause.
Ashley Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 In my first season as Leicester manager, I've won the league, carling cup and in the FA Cup Final. Need 3 goals to reach +100. Coventry looking at relegation going into the last game of the season. 2pts behind Barnsley on 39. Barcelona 4-3-3 formation is deadly.
Brainy Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 Tried signing Trevor Benjamin for Redditch Utd but he failed his bloody medical
Kent Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 Tried signing Trevor Benjamin for Redditch Utd but he failed his bloody medical I signed him successfully for Hinckley Utd once. And Michael Ricketts.
Salieri Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 nevermind... just realised the error of my ways Glad you have. I'm a massive technophobe and can't open the file at all, keeps giving me all this dbc shit.

The Doctor Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 Finally bought this. Started unemployed, currently managing VFL Wolfsburg how the **** did you get straight into Wolfsburg if you started unemployed?
anotherharboroughfox Posted 8 August 2011 Posted 8 August 2011 how the **** did you get straight into Wolfsburg if you started unemployed? I have no idea maybe because my past expierience is International Footballer? I've just been tipped for the leicester job!
