i can't be held responsible for spending £16m on Bent

But i can for offloading him to villa for £5, at what worked out as approx £450k per game

stupid game

retired_jess29

anyway, my point isn't really about the money (£30m even for gerrard was pushing it if you ask me), i'm just impressed that a high profile player was persuaded to join spurs. and that die-hard red steven gerrard might have too if i had the budget.

how fickle footballers can be!!

I took over Spurs in 2018. Bent wasn't good enough for the first team, so I stuck him in the reserves. Yet he still had 12 months left on his £90,000 contract. Now that's a waste of money.
Also Paul Robinson on £99,000 in the reserves.
£10m in wages on those two idiots. So frustrating...
Oh, and I wasn't even in the Premiership!

Crazy money !!!!!!

Did you give Taarbt a go in your games? The reason I ask is that he looks like a good player but not sure if he is worth a punt or not.

retired_jess29

he does look like an awesome talent IRL. so young too.

i've given him a few games and he's pretty solid but doesn't really push forward a lot and has low stamina. definitely one to watch in the future though.

Like what others said i'm not sure signing Babel for £24m is really that much to boast about.

I picked up Agureo from £29m for Spurs, which is a far better signing

On a Liverpool going down the crapper theme, my mate signed Gerrard and Owen on frees from Liverpool in an older version after they got into difficulties. I think he rather enjoyed signing them for the club he supports...Everton. I also pinched Reyes from Sevilla for about £2m around the time Arsenal shelled out £15m or so in real life as they were skint.

I had Taarabt on loan from Spurs for the first 3 season, avg over 7.10 per season and scored about 7-10 goals for my Saints team.

Babel is an excellent player, but not worth £24m. In my West Brom game in.. about 2012, he's down to $2m, so about £4m. I've also seen him depreciate rapidly on my other saved games that made it past 2010
