Dave Mulligan, scored 10 goals last season for me and 10 so far in february atm. All from free kicks.

gareth bale is good on set plays and is also a young player with great potential. I took him for Sunderland and he did very well.

May be a bit obvious. But Ronaldinho is fbbb at all set pieces.

Sorry to double post, but Giggs is surprisingly disappointing at set pieces. Also I think some of you my have missed that I'm working in US Dollars and not pound sterling.(Roughly 13 million pounds)

Got some bids in, has any one had Wes Sneijder play for them? 15 for crossing and corners, 18 for free kicks and 17 for long shots, not bad,right? Worth my whole budget?

I'm hoping for Pirlo or Van der Vart,but don't think and can afford them

ok,so it looks like its between Van der Vaart and Sneijder. Both will cost me my $25 million budget. Van der Vaart wants $20k a week more plus $1.5 million more signing on fee,but is a better,more established player.
Sneijder, however is more versitile(VDV would be in competition with both Scholes and Rooney) and is more likely to play on a more regular basis and would be a more useful substitute.

I'm swaying toward Sneijder, I feel I don't need another player in the AMC position(or should I off-load an aging Scholes???)

What do you think??

Get Van der Vaart because he is a superb consistant player who gets and sets up many goals, and don't bother paying the signing on fee just put it to 0 and most players still accept if you meet the rest of their demands.

Managed to get VDV on a slightly reduced wage and signing on fee, I never manage to get a player to forfeit a signing on fee of such high amounts($3.4 million), well done to those who can.

Scholes is off to Spurs, so I still have $15 million to add a couple more players to the squad.
