haha, sorry, didn't think of the euro thing  I hope you can still find use for it tho. How's the HAM-sucking up going along btw?
I'm currently looking for bargain buys on the transfer market in order to buff up my attack/midfield/wing a bit, but with the renewed transfer listing system bargains are becoming rare.  In the past they used to browse 30 lists to search everyhting, now only 8..;and nutcases like me would search all 30 and find cheap deals.  Ah well.  I was close to buying a great winger for only 25k, and i had only one other bidder against me...BUT THEN! my optical mouse went ballistic  I tried to fix it, didn't work, then tried to reset and log on to HT in time in order not to miss the deadline, but when i got back on i was TEN seconds late and the player was sold to the other guy for a cheap, cheap 25k.  The mouse only went ballistic twice in the whole time i had it, and it HAD to be on a moment like that...Murphy i guess. Did piss me off for a good 5 minutes tho.
How are you guys looking for the weekend? Mine is gonna be boring, playing against a hacked team, so a non-match 5-0 win. Good for PIC and training, but well...it's no fun

Winning is always fun. The only problem is that your competition also wins from him, so it won't help you much (unless that guy's hacked at the end of the season and the others have played matches against him already off course).

Yeah sucking up isn't going too badly, i'll probably pay for it and just use his credit card, hehe!
I managed a 3-1 win in my league match. I think i'm at 3rd on the ladder at the moment. Which is ok
I'm fairly sure i'll get kicked out of the cup this week, but i did manage to pull a solid playmaker passable defender. Thank goodness! One of my star defenders is injured and starting to get old. I'll be able to train some up!

Pulled a worthless keeper today and fired him immedeately. I'm prolly not gonna win today's match, as my opponent's player ratings look very impressive, and it's an away game.

Hehe, pulled crap too, but my youth team is only at wretched still obviously.  It should slowly get better now tho, with the 20k weekly investment. Congrats on the win Suga! In a shared 1ste place now I see, very cool.  I'm thinking of getting supporter once i got (real) money, but we'll see.
I've bougth some players, like i said i would.
a first team winger, 27, paid 82k
Stamina: excellent Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: wretched Passing: wretched
Winger: excellent Defending: wretched
Scoring: poor Set Pieces: inadequate
a backup inner mid, 26, 30k
Stamina: passable Keeper: wretched
Playmaking: solid Passing: weak
Winger: disastrous Defending: wretched
Scoring: weak Set Pieces: weak
a backup/secondary scorer, 31, 20k BUT head specialist!
Stamina: inadequate Keeper: disastrous
Playmaking: wretched Passing: passable
Winger: poor Defending: inadequate
Scoring: passable Set Pieces: inadequate
As a result I'll be selling some lesser players of mine, feel free to drop by.
Ooh, and good news for Qasim 'Qasim' Qasim:
"The Saudi team will always need a whole bunch of defenders and although Qasim is three levels behind Haddad all you need to do is train him three levels longer and he'll be just as good in the long term. Short term he's still going to see a lot of action in the U20 team as that Head speciality does give him a definite advantage over the others."
Yay!

Hah! I won 2-4! I didn't expect that, and my player ratings weren't even that good. Luckily espescially his wings were very good and I did attack through the middle. It's good to study your opponent a bit before the match hehe.

Yeah, true.  No offense, but the win was still pretty lucky hehe...you were more or less worse in everything.  That's my boy, winning German-style...soon you will to the powers of the defense-side, young manager.
Talking about scouting: my next opponent won't know what hit him (well, that's the idea).  Ive only played 5-4-1 so far this season, with everything defensive and counterattacking, but he's got a crappy defense (3xweak) and a great attack; so i'll surprise him with fielding an offensive team.  I bought a third striker, a backup mid and 2 wingers in the last week so offensively i should do MUCH better than normal. Gonna be a 4-4-2 with offensive wingers, normally speaking. My defense should be strong enough to kick ass with 4 men at the back. The only problem is that his midfield is one lvl stronger than me, but bleh. I'll C-A his ass off

And i'm up for any friendlys now guys, hehehe
Just got kicked out of the cup 5-2. But i did a lot better than i thought.
My whole team is almost up to 2.5 or 3 stars, except two players. Four are on 3 stars!
That solid playmaker/passable defender i pulled managed 2.5 stars at central defender on his first match. Pretty psyched about that!

Lost 8-0 in a friendly today.
It was the same guy I beat last week in my league game, and the fool fielded his a-team, so I guess he wanted some revenge and is very happy now.
I like to make people happy.

lol, 8-0  Let's see what my biggest loss ever was..9-0 in a friendly, heh. One of my many friendlies against the Puppetmasters.  (team of a mate)
Biggest loss in a match where i fielded my a-team: 3-1 away and 0-4 at home. And that 0-4 is an exception, I rarely lose big with my great defense.
Hey Suga,i challenged you to a friendly! In Oz, no less! hehe. *plans to sedate Suga's young talent and bring him back to Belgium*
