Are you sure it wasn't your management skills that were to blame?

just because you sign a player for a big amount of money dont expect them to be an instant hit, with Pato it took me a few seasons to get the best out of him. be patient give them a chance

My worst player who i bought was 'Fabregas' at £24,000,000.

Played : 31
Goals : 5
Assists : 11
Av Rating : 6.87

```````````````````````````````````````````
Regarding Ridley talking about players needing time.

Im midway through my third season. Bought Silva from Valencia in first season for £32,000,000

First seasons stats
Played - 44
Goals - 11
Assists - 23
Av Rating - 7.23

Second seasons stats (Had couple of injuries)
Played - 31
Goals - 17
Assists - 18
Av Rating - 7.14

Current seasons stats
Played - 17
Goals - 9
Assists - 14
Av Rating - 7.87

So, you can see that Silva has improved in terms of Av Rating and assists and goals after a cople of seasons and he has settled in.

It's weird because i bought Silva and he's absolutely awesome! For my Arsenal team his record is.


Played: 370 matches

Scored: 300 goals

In 6 and a bit seasons

Av rating has never been lower than 8.00
I do play him in the center of Jambos 3-5-2 though but he is very good.

I never spend over 5 million on a player I always go on the cheap and always do well with a 4-3-3 tactic
