  • Has anyone been able to get Serges Deble a work permit?
    Yep. Get afeeder club in Europe and send him on loan until he gains citizenship. He's good in the Championship and not bad as a cheap backup player in the Prem scores quite a few for me as Super sub.
  • You will be all glad to hear I got promoted with Shrewsbury.

    Got evina in who was good on the left wing!

    In the process of get deble but struggling to get work permit!!

    Any tips to getting one? Does he need to have a long contract?

    If I'm trying to sign him, any other way I can do it?
  • In 1st season with the Addicks. Bit of a mixed bag so far. 13 games played and currently 5th but starting to string some good results together (the highlight being thrashing Hudds at home 6-1, the low losing 4-0 at home to wallsall). Bournemouth and colchester running away with it so far (wtf).

    It's the 15th of Oct and Lee clark, Karl Robinson & Gary Smegson all got sacked after todays defeats............................happy days.
  • 3 players I picked up on freebies that have been awsome so far are Josh Wright, Stephen Jordan (LB) and Kelvin Etuhu (AML) who was released by Man City and is top quality. Also go Tom Soares and Andrea Orlandi both on season long loans.

    I believe you can only sign players without permits if you already have a EU feeder club. Try to get a Czech one as it's only 2 years. Sign them up an then move to affiliate under the transfer options.

    Although Deble did have to wait an extra 3 months for his paperwork to come through!

    Played 3 games in the Champ , top with 7 points , not sure my squad is going to big enough if i get injuries,but will use youth players as backup , cousins and Harriot , who is worth 800k , and who has done well, have signed lots of players on free transfers who are better than what i've got , then shipped out the ones i didn't want ie Josh Wright, Morrison is awesome in this game , he got me 7 goals last season in League 1, have paired him up with a guy called Hutchison ,  who looks really good , but got sent off in his 1st game!

    Will post some of the players i got tonight , but willing to see if people have any other gems?
  • Second season in, im in the championship. Started off promising then really dropped away, ended up around 20th. Revamped all my tactics and formation, and ive had a surge up the table and i am now 7th and climbing! Current formation and lineup is as follows

                                 Joe Lewis

    Chris Solly    Glen Loovens    Michael Morrison    Rhoys Wiggins

                             Alan Smith   Johnnie Jackson

     

    Danny Green            Yann Kermorgant       Jeffrey Schlupp

                                 Wright-Phillips

    Subs: Ben Hamer, Ben Mee, Kevin McDonald, Dale Stephens, Lucas Piazon

    I had a 200k transfer warchest but directed that into my wage budget to sign people on some free's. That Piazon fella is on loan from Chelsea who are my parent club. Wont loan me anyone else though the bastards!

    I got Chelsea as a feeder club - they too sent me Piazon straight away, but wouldn't loan me anyone for the next 3 seasons. Absolute jokers.

    I'm in my 5th season - won League 1 with 105 points, then finishes of 9th, 11 and 3rd (lost in playoff final to 115th minute goal) in The Championship. Currently top at Christmas in my 5th season.

                            Hamer
    Solly   Sean Morrison  Hutchison   Wiggins
                Stephens   Drinkwater
    Pilkington                                   Ephraim
                 BWP   FrenchRegen
  • Anyone else playing the handheld PSP version?

     

    Promoted as champs first season on 99 points.

     

    Not sure how to tinker with the training - looks very complicated...

    Its frustrating as they have Sturridge, Essien and Mchechrean(sic) just rotting in the reserves! I know its a long shot with Sturridge and Essien but they arent usign them for god sake!

  • I'm in
    January with Charlton.



    Won every game in August and went top of the league and got manager of the
    month. Then I went 9 games without a win and ended up mid-table and almost got
    the sack. Changed formation and brought in a few short term loans and dropped a
    few and have turned it round, currently 2nd, level on points with Preston who are top.



    Highlights on this run include scoring over 20 goals in January and not
    conceding a single one in the league beating Walsall
    7-0 away and Orient 4-0.



    Made it to the 5th round of the FA Cup where I was 1-0 up until the last 10
    minutes where they scored twice and knocked me out. Shelvey starts every game
    for them.



    I play a kind of 4-5-1 with two inside forwards playing off BWP so more like a
    4-1-2-2-1.

    Hamer



    Solly Andrew Davis (loan) Morrison Cuunigham (loan)



    Ashbee



    Alonso Gary Gardner (loan)



    Green Wagstaff



    BWP



    other new signings over the season: Amos, Andros Townsend (loan) Obika (loan),
    James Perch (loan) Dean Parret (loan) Beattie (on a free, don't bother he's
    been injured all season), Eccleston.



    BWP has over 20 goals already. Waggy's into double figures, Green has a got a
    few assists. Ashbee is brilliant as a DM and only cost me 20k. Gary Gardner as
    an advanced playmaker scores and makes plenty. Obika is decent off the bench up
    front or out wide and you can get him on loan from Spurs in January. Can't seem
    to get the best out of Hayes or Kermogant. Townsend was brilliant in his short
    loan spell, as was Parrett. Davies excellent at the back. Amos and Perch are a
    bit hit and miss and Cunningam is probably my best player.

  • Just been awarded motm and the fans love me
  • Not played FM for a few years so found all the extra features a bit daunting at first. Started my career unemployed and got hired by Eastleigh in the BS south after a few months. Finished 7th, then 1st and am currently sitting about 8th in the BS Premier. Still only have a wage budget of £6k so struggling to compete in this league. I have 1 loyal away fan that turns up at every game. Think it's about time for a new job. Charlton are still in league 1 with Brian Laws looking shaky at the helm so hopefully that job may come up soon enough.
  • Love watching the games on the game good little feature ..
  • edited January 2012
    Ok here are some of the players i bought, am in championship, second season of game.

    Pablo Redondo - Free - Left Mid quality
    Matthew Lowton - 200k - Right back /centre def
    Iain Turner - Free - Keeper better than Hamer sold Sullivan
    Santiago Garcia - Free  - Better than Wiggins
    Harry Maguire - 190k
    Shaun Hutchison - Cen Def Play alongside Morrison Quality
    Danny Mayor - Right Mid - 210k , better than Danny Green , use Mayor as starter and Waggy as backup
    Kevin Mcdonald - 190k - Centre Mid
    Stephen Dobbie - 1.1m

    Make sure you sell your player options when the board offer then , they take an age to offer them so keep checking , have kerchinged quite a a bit of cash this way.

    Go to - transfer and then -  clauses , quite a few for Shelvey , i didn't find this out until i'd been playing for quite a while.

  • Honest to god. This game can muck you up 4-0 up against aston villa in the 6th round of the fa cup .. changed the tactics to defending and played 4-5-1 instead of 4-4-2 , then lost 5-4 ! Ffs

    good 4th goal from chris wood thoe.

    this game is so realistic at times

  • I beat West Ham Away 4-1 in the League Cup 2nd Round, have got Everton at Home In the 3rd Round , not sure we could beat West Ham Away 4-1 , but i can dream ;-0

  • Just started up my first FM12 game, chosen Charlton so who do you recommend me to sign?

    chris wood on loan and ben amos in goal ..

    good luck boy

  • Just started up my first FM12 game, chosen Charlton so who do you recommend me to sign?
    Eric Lichaj can play both full back positions, Chris Wood and Febien Brandy are great additions up front, Josh Wright is decent as a backup and Andros Townsend terrorises League 1 defences. Ben Amos is a class above Hamer and Sullivan, and Marcel Seip is good if you can get rid of Doherty!

    Scroll up  and read! ;-0
  • Had my first six games in league 1 with Shrewsbury.

    Drew away to both Sheffields and lost 5-1 at Rochdale, there the stand out results. A lot harder but I've brought in 9.

    Including Kuqi who scored 27 goals last term!
  • Why is it so much easier to loan in players when your in league 1 , other than the championship. ?

    I always seem to be paying a fee and at least 80% of the wages ?

    Same things happening to me at the moment. Finished 4th in League One and beat Bournemouth 3-0 and 1-0 in the play-off semi's then beat Chesterfield 5-0 in the final somehow even though they'd beaten me 3-0 home and away during the season.

    Currently in pre-season and managed to shift a lot of dead wood so I've so far brought in Sean Davis, Joey O'Brien, Nathan Baker, Michael Tonge and Andrew Davies on frees with Andros Townsend and Eccleston coming on loan with me paying 100% of their wages. Just need a decent left back if I can't get Cunnigham back in on loan. Any tips?

    Lichaj, can play both sides of defence and for some reason his stats were massively inflated on my game after a season, can be found in Aston Villa's reserves
