Just started game as Newcastle and need atleast one Centre back one cm (does not seem many good ones of these in the game) and one Striker.
Defender is most important but all i have is £8 million to spend.
Bet even Keegan could not do much with that.
Can anyone help??

CB - Ignashevich is free at the start. Get him. Else Felipe (Udinese) is available for around 5M. Sakho is available for a little compensation and although not great at the start, he can still do a decent job for you.

CM - Diaby is generally available on loan from Arsenal. Get him. Same is the case with Alexandre Song. You could land Banega for around 4M. He's still developing but can do a good job in the side.

ST - Jermaine Defoe - 6-7M (around 4M if you wait till Jan)
Cesar Delgado - 3-4M
Bogdan Stancu - 400-500K
Billy Sharp - 3-4M

Playing with the weegie 8.0.1 update i recieved 20 million total transfer money in the first season by asking the board. For a DC though try Samba at Blackburn.

Balasz Dzsudzsak - AM LC- I got him right at the start of the game for £100K, and now at the start of my 4th season, he's worth over £8M. Performed well from the start and improved ever since.

Steven Taylor is immense for me at the moment, Arsenal and Man Utd have both offered over £20M, and he's also been a great captain from the start. Christopher Samba would be a great partner for him.

I wouldn't recommend Stancu as he has been very poor for me. Mauro Zarate, Jermaine Defoe or Dean Ashton would be great in a Newcastle shirt. Zarate's value will show at £11M, but Al-Sadd will happily accept around £3.3.

CB

Cahais - £200k - becomes captain on Argentina in year 4 in my game (+25m)

Samba - fantastic value and young

Faye - already there and good but better at right back

CM

Piatti, Banega or Modric (from very cheap to quite expensive

Valuso

Adrian (Porto I think)- very strong

Makoun - very strong

Diarra - gets better

CF

Le Tallec
Saivet
Stancu
Falcoa
Palicio
Zarate (3m)
Gyan (sell Martins and buy him)

Hope this helps a little

Much better in the game than in real life and serious money to spend if you get any success at all
