Cant believe this, after getting dumped by Gillete and Hicks after 2 seasons at Liverpool with 2 consecutive 3rd place finishes, a CL semi final and a league cup win,I did something I havnt done before. Instead of starting again with another doomed Liverpool challenge I remained unemployed to see if I could score any good jobs, The Real madrid post came up when I was released but I didnt get it. into April 2010 and Arsene Wenger leaves Arsenal to go to Milan who they have just played in a Champions League quarter final 1st leg !!!! And Burjennio has a cheeky stab at the Arsenal job and low and behold...........

Arsenal offer me a 2 year deal with, and a kid ye not £129m transfer kitty!!!!!!!!! Holy Mother of God, accept post before they change there mind

Take the job and I notice just why Arsenal are sitting 15th in the league - they sold all there full backs!!!!!!!!!! no Clichy, Eboue, Flamini or any other decent players. All thats left is Hoyte, who wants to leave, and Traore who has a torn calf muscle and is out for the season. Gallas and Toure at the back with other CB Djoouru (?) injured as well

Doesnt start well as I lose 1-0 to Spurs in the FA Cup semi. And Milan 2-1 in the Champions league (lost on away goals) A bit patchy in the league still and play Liverpool at the Emirates, go a goal up early. Fabragas gets sent off after 10mins and BANG! beat 2-1

A bit on consoladation gets us to a 12th place. Liverpool won the league with 76points, 2 more points than id finished with the season before and been miles away. It was a strange season. Utd lost 6 games in a row at the start of the year, but rallied to a respectable 3rd place finish. Liverpool bombed at the beginning to and theyre new manager Javier Aguirre was under pressure so I cheekily declared interest in the post and the Americans laughed it off, saying that they would consider many other managers before me. OUCH!!!!! So It is now my mission to bring them too there knees so my game will now be known as

Durka Durka Durka - Death to America

Gillette and Hicks - Im comin da get you

Van Persie wants to go, so he can, say for about £30m, Ive agreed a deal for Niko Krancjar for £5m as Hleb and Rosicky are both about to hit the big 30 and hes a good player

The squad give or take has the following

FW
Adebayor
Vela
Van Persie (TL)
Eduardo

MD
Fabregas
Hleb
Maxi
Diaby
Javi Martinez
Rosicky
some winger who's name escapes me, but hes good
Krancjar (joining summer)

The midfield lacks some steel which is a worry, Id like to bring in someone in the Mascherano mould, ive been trying to entice Banaga away from Liverpool (where I signed him ) but Liverpool are being petty

DF

Gallas
Toure
Djourou
A Traore
Hoyte

This area really need strengthening, 2 quality fullbacks required as well as another utility player

GK

Fabainski
Some Kid

Seriously, Any wonder Arsenal were in freefall? no keeper, half a defence, not even Brazil play with half a defence (tho anyone who ever saw Roque Junior play would disagree)

So a World Class Keeper is required, Lordy, I can afford it

Any suggestions?

oscar ustari world class gk

good shout, how much do you think hed go for?

Have a look at Sunny from valencia as a defensive midfielder. Has been keeping Banega out of my man utd team

retired_nahar

Ustari is not really cheap, Milan paid in my game about 25 milion for him, however I managed to get him for 13 in the 2nd season,

Check Breno where is he playing, and try to sign Vidal from leverkusen only signed him for a mere 5.5 milion, chillieni from juve as a left back and rafinha as right back, Vidal btw can play anywhere,

goodluck mate

Just get Hugo Lloris and you'll be fine mate. He'll be much cheaper than Ustari or Akinfeev. If you can get them two for anything upto 20-25M, then go for it. Else get Lloris.

For FB's, Daniel Alves is the best RB in the game without doubt. If you can get him, do so. Else De Silvestri or Behrami are good options. Zaccardo too if he's available cheap(ish). For LB, see if you can get Clichy back somehow. He's absolutely brilliant but Traore should really be ready by now. Else look at Sakho, Guilherme or Insua (). Gallas must be old so you can do with a CB as well. You shouldnt have a problem in that department as there are millions of great ones. Djourou and Toure are both excellent and Gallas would still be decent backup. But you'll need one more on rotation.

If you're after a DM in the Mascherano mould, then why go for Banega? Mascherano is all defense while Banega is very much like a CM and much better going forward. If you want a no-BS guy who's also pretty good going forward, then De Rossi is your answer. He wont come cheap but is well worth it and you have the money I suppose. You can also look at Lucas, Veloso, Albiol (very good DM too), Poulsen, Cana (a bit slow) or Sunny.

retired_kimberlyftz

if you need a dm then get Angelo Palombo
i got him for 30m with my r.madrid team but possibly ripped off.
had mascherano in a team before and not even he is as good as this guy
had an average rating of 7.77 in first season-he is incredible

Alot of the big players have been snapped up by rivals. Chelsea have Alves. Liverpool have Banega and Rafinha and AC Milan have every good young midfielder you can think of (Modric, Moutinho, Lucho Gonzalez and others)Also Utd got Dos Santos and Raul Garcia

Might make a move for Veloso and one other "hard" midfielder. Need a no nonsense man in there

Should probably make 1 mega signing with that money huh? I never do it but Ive never had close to this much money without messin around on the editor!

Who?

Messi? Ineista? Pato? Dirk Kuyt :eek:

ShaneFrost1

DM : toulalon (although a lot more cm) but still, bodmer, makoun II (beast), veloso

RB / Clercq from lyon very very very great
