Trying to do a challenge, where as Chelsea, I will try and buy an good English first 11. Sold Drogba and all of the other foreign stars and managed to recoup £75m.
Tried to sign Micah Richards, but will not pay £37.5m for a player rated £6.5m. Tried to sign Barry - Villa wanted over £40m - currently rated at £5m, Tried to sign Owen, Newcastle wanted £30m......has anyone ever had success at buying good english players for realistic money?

I think this is better put in the GPTG forum.
Unless, of course, you wish to have a discussion without player naming, which is rather frowned upon here.

| If you want teams to give up players that they do not want to sell then they are going to ask stupid amounts. Chelsea found this. You may have money but people will not want to sell unless you offer silly money.
Perfectly lifelike.

You could always try exchanging your foreign players for english ones...Drogba for Owen etc

what you need to do is snap up the english youngsters and bring them through gradually. chelsea actually have some quality young english players.

I got Barry on my Chelsea. He's pretyy good once you give him time to settle in. Like you i wanted english players and thought Barry was prob the best Eng CM out there so was bidding and Villa wanted over 30 mil. After a while Barry became pised off at being denied the move and i managed to get him for 14mil. I also signed Owen. First season he scored 20 (being rotated and injured for 3 months) which i was chuffed about, but he kept getting dropped from England, along with Barry and Joe Cole which i wasn't chuffed about.
