Second season,got rid of alot of players on the cheap aswell but main ones were..

 

Given:8M

Bellamy:5M

Jenas:11M ( Regret it now,had a class season,scored 16 goals and had 8 assists)

 

Got about 20M left as I won the title and was in the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup.

Thats my first team squad. Sold off Robben for £50 million at the beginning of the season.

Got a healthy bank balance. It all started when man Utd paid £41 million plus 20% next fee for Cavenaghi. I nipped in and got Rooney when his contract was unprotected :D I think I got the better end of the deal.

 

Since then my cashflow got better as I sold off kids that I'd developed but weren't going to make the grade at the very top.

I have Cavenaghi, Cisse and Rooney playing up front for me. The Roonster is immense but the God in my squad is Esposito. He's been top in Average Rating in the League since he signed for me. Pity his stamina and injury problems always prevents him from playing too many games for me.

Have you ever tried to play it without making many transfers? Try to keep it as realistic as possible....

I only buy 4/5 players per season. Unless I need a clear out.

Bear in mind i'm 4 seasons in so the look of the team is bound to change a little. Look at our side in 95/96 then look at it again in 99/00. Two completely different sides bar one or two players. Also, alot of the players I couldn't get shot of are rotting in the reserves.

Quite a few of my players I have found by scouting but one or two have been twocked from the Essential Players list. It's not exactly cheating though when it's common knowledge that players like Cavenaghi, Tevez, Lewandowski etc. are all legends on FM.
