Hi guys, I started up a Villa game the other day n I'm flippin lovin it! (this is with the latest patch) got trounced 5-0 on the first day of the season by Bolton but now 4th after 19 games..

Transfers In:
Elano from Shakhtar £10 mil. really good, play him behind Moore and Angel/Baros out for 4 months though.
Maduro from Ajax £9 mil. awful to start off with, moved into DM role and now cant stop gettin 8's and 9's, fans were annoyed about him upsetting harmony blah blah blah.
Pasenan £2.6 from Bremen. great defender, really solid.
Hartem Ben Arfa season loan, re-trained so he can play on the right as well.. worked a treat! Great player.
Denilson, season loan, wicked player alwys improvin has been used a fair amount due to injuries.
John Carew, season loan, rubbish.

GK: Sorensen
DL: Samuel (Bouma injured for 6 mths.)
DR: Pasenan
DC: Mellberg
DC: Maduro/Sidwell
MR: Ben Arfa
ML: Barry
DM: Petrov/Maduro
AM: Elano/Petrov (Petrov seems to play better behind strikers)
FC: Moore (amazin, 18 in 19)
FC: Angel/Baros

Sidwell?! I meant Ridgewell!

Quick question regarding John Robertson the ass. man. I really don't want him as ass. man. his stats are pony, I've tried mutual termination and free transfer but the board keep blockin it.. so I've tried to offer him a shorter contract with more £ so its then cheaper to cancel the contract.. still doesn't work!

So got Del Salvi (youth coach at Man Utd, great stats) as ass. man. as well.. but don't really know what to do with Robertson, he's contracted til 2009 as well :thdn:

Can anyone help me please?

Same here willynilly, I didn't want him as asst man and saw no reason why a new manager at that level would not have complete control over who his asst man is. So I didn't feel bad when I downloaded a real time editor and just made it so his contract ended on July 3rd. Then I signed a brilliant youth coach from Inter as my asst manager, Bosaglia.

I just started a game as Aston Villa, my first since the original I started when I first made this thread. I didn't quite know what to do with the 20mil so I signed Arteta for 13mil, Donovan for 5.5 and Adu for 3. I sold Samuel to Blackburn for 2.2m + 30% sell on. I signed 3 scouts and began scouting youth players and signed 3 or 4.

I didn't bother asking for more, I figured the full bank account would be much better spent after a season or two when the clubs reputation is a bit higher and when I will (hopefully) need to bolster the squad for Euro competition.

For tactics, I'm going to go a completely different route than I did in my last Aston Villa game, even though I had great success with it. This time around I'm going for a 4-3-1-2 (ML/MC/MR/AMC) for games I want results in and a 4-1-3-1-1 for tough away games or to protect leads at home.

Whats the general opinion on Sorensen? I have never been very impressed with his performances.
Just started a new game and managed to sign Akinfeev (for the first time!) £11.2m though -so quite pleased with that. He would never come to Villa before this patch, at least not for me anyway.
So have I done right, or is Sorensen worth sticking with?

I scouted Eneyeama and was told he would not be interested in joining Villa so didn't bother bidding.

Sorensen is very good, i have Eneyeama aswell but only started playing him not long ago because hes unhappy and i want him as my replacement for Sorensen, gets quite a few 6's hoping hes going to improve before i've got to replace Sorensen.

Moore got 25 goals for me last season, Eddie Johnson was quality aswell getting about 20 goals before he got injured, then i put Ray Jones in, he scored 23 goals in 15 games, absolute quality :p

Sorensen is normally very hit or miss for me. One game he will stop everything the next the goals rain in.

Replaced him with Gordon right at the start. He's been amazing. Very rarely see a mistake out of him.

Finished my first season with Villa and what a great season it was. Won the league with by 8 points winning 28, drawing 5 and losing 5. Strengthened the squad during the summer by adding the following: (£28 million to spend)

Amelia on a bosman
Hoyte £3.4m, made the deal permanment
Corluka £5m, beat Arsenal to him
Nolan £8m, Bolton were relegated
Nani £13.75m
Gouffran £2m

Players that left during the summer were:

Sorensen to Panathnaikos for £1.8m
Davis to Liverpool for £18m. Although i wanted to keep him i thought the offer was too good to turn down.

Currently played 4 games in my 2nd season and i have won 3 and drawn 1. Champions league has been quite kind to me having been drawn against Porto, Lyon and Shakthar. I was amongst the bottom set of seeds for the draw and was very pleased that i came out into this group.
