Mario balotelli 18yr old Inter striker, you can pick him for about £10m. He'll be worth 5x this in a few years Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: scotty2hatty on November 17, 2008, 06:47:31 PM Can we not just use it for general good signings as opposed to bargains? ok, ta.
Started with Man City as I heard they had a bit of cash and wanted to get used to the game before diving in with the challenging Dundee. Signed so far: Veloso 12m Moutinho 11m Diego Capel 12m (release clause) Kierrison 3.5m Vela 10m Cardozo 6m Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds.

Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: paulhouk03 on November 18, 2008, 12:02:36 AM i started a man city game with in the first season i got
marcelo 4.4 m veloso 12.5m akinfeev 24m ( he was the bollocks on the last football managers but he is ok) arungo 14.5 (probs my best buy) van der vaart (10m) got alot of young randomers i dunno if they are good yet only 3/5s through the season. marcelo is ok i think he does his job. well he is better than garrido and he is mates with robinho who is a mardy cock and always wants to leave. if u ask him who to recommend he will recommend marcelo if he is on ur shortlist and he will be happier. u can sell elano for 15 and petrov for 11 and richards for 20 this will leave u loads of money to buy randomers Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: Linux on November 18, 2008, 12:49:41 AM yea, robinho wanted 2 leave on my man city game aswell

Post by: ChipRich on November 22, 2008, 04:34:00 PM Sighh, finished 7th with City in first Season.
Brought in Guardado, Moutinho, Veloso, Palombo, Pogrenybak and few others. Got to end of season and everyone bid for my players, Ended up selling: Moutinho for 40m - Didnt wna sell but dont think i could reject 40m for him. Only paid 10m for him. Palombo for 35m - again, didnt really wna sell him. But 35m for 27 yr old is sweet Gelson Fernandes 22m - to Chelsea, wtf. Decent player but snapped their hands off. Rejected pretty big offers for Guardado and Pogrenybak and have brought in Rafinha, Felliani, Balotelli and Van Der Vaart. Pretty ghey though as have a load of money now, but no really decent players wna come to City, to replace Moutinho etc. Need a quality striker too, but no1 really decent wants to come, sighhh. Any other amazing finds anyone? Marquinhos from Palmeiras looks decent, just signed him for about 11m. AM R/L/C, FC. Not a bargain, but could be immense i think. Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds.

Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: Josedinho on November 26, 2008, 08:54:32 AM Any thoughts on Kranjcar?
1st tranfer window has just closed for me and he is unsettled and i've had a bid of £20mil for him. Lined up a replacement for £7.5mil. Is it good business or is he somebody that will go for alot more? Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: paulhouk03 on November 26, 2008, 11:12:07 AM yeah i would sell him
he is good but u can get alot better for 20 mill veloso is good Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds.

Lined up a replacement for £7.5mil. Is it good business or is he somebody that will go for alot more? Defo sell imo. Buy Moutinho for around 10-15m, then sell for 40-50m in a season or 2. Veloso also vvv good. Started a new game with Leeds so i didnt get bored of Man City game too quickly. Won League first season by like 10 points, looking for some decent cheap talent for Championship now though. Anyone? Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: seven2unsuited on November 26, 2008, 01:23:57 PM There a guy who plays for bohemians who is 19, his stats are look good, he is a free transfer, i tried to get him for rochdale but the bid went public and fulham signed him

[/quote] Adam Lallana from Southampton looks an awesome prospect, can pick him up for about 1.5 million, currently star player in my sheff utd side. Rafael Forster, young Brazilian centre back, should be a top premiership player in a couple of years, i picked him up for 250k plus 35% sell on clause. James Mccarthy from Hamilton, get him for about a million, should be a decent premiership player. Fabian delph from Leeds looks good too. Not sure if he'll go to championship, but Robert Lewandowski is currently scoring for fun in the premiership, and you can pick him up for about 1.5 million. Finally, Hulk (!) from Porto is almost as good as his name, wont go to championship, but i picked him up in my first prem season. P Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds.

Post by: Horneris on November 28, 2008, 07:10:46 PM Loving FM atm. I'm QPR, got 8m to start with and dissapointingly finished 15th.
2nd season with 5 games left im poisted to finish 7th or 8th sighh, but didnt get much money in the 2nd season and was only expected to finish safe mid table so its not too bad. I've signed loads of very promising 15-17 year olds, found through my scouting system (i like this feature, currently have 7 scouts all over the world) but none of these players started the game, so no one to recommend. Promotion next season to the prem imo. Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: maldini32 on November 28, 2008, 07:17:07 PM What formation/tactics is everyone using?

After 8 games in Prem i had 1 point, and hadn't score a goal. I was like fkin gr8 game, but ended up getting some toasty results and have just stayed up! weeeeee. Ended up finishing 15th with 37 points, 18th only got 26 points so maybe i ran good there. Hopefully stay up/improve league position next season. Signed Bendtner for 4.8m in Jan, biggest signing yet. Has done pretty well since joining. Hopefully get some decent £ to spend now and get a good team together. Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: Linux on December 03, 2008, 04:14:03 PM Just made a bit of a mistake i think
Torres for £73m oops now have aguero, torres, robinho and huntelaar Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: Josedinho on December 04, 2008, 12:32:53 PM I'm Pompey. Struggling 1st season. Survived a new chairman wanting Glenn hoddle and a transfer embargo so kept Kranjcar even though the offer i was made i would have accepted if i could sign a replacement.
2nd season narrowly missed out on Europe. Got Kompany who is decent. Gago is good got for 7mil. Van Der Vaart was 7mil not been too impressed but its good value. Drenthe for 5mil has been amazing. Rakitic is by far the best signing i've made. Biggest battle is attracting players and keeping my decent players at the club. Title: Re: FM 2009 Bargain finds. Post by: Steelio on December 04, 2008, 01:30:26 PM Im Leeds, 1st season I won the league, 2nd season came 6th and won the playoffs so Leeds are back where they belong. Bates has just stepped down and the legend Peter Lorimer has taken over his place. Played one game in the prem lost to spurs 2-1 at home, gonna be a hard season, only have a few original first teamers left, Delph and White have got good on the game. Think i should probably need some experience as my average age of squad is 23 but blew most of my budget on Keirrson. Man City have gone crazy on my game, spent 147m first season, 80 the next and 40 so far this season, must be one of the easiest jobs on the game.
