£40M + Trent Alexander-Arnold (21/92) + Jude Bellingham (16/78) for Joshua Kimmich (25/94)
Bellingham's now 17/86, Trent is 22/93 and Kimmich is still 25/94 but guaranteed to be 95 by the end of the season.

That is where I could not handle Everton. I hold onto players too much and expect a lot more for TAA.
Alas, Gillingham will be in div 1 soon so you big guns can expect really annoying matches again.

I think MG is one of a kind. Don't think anyone else would have made the offer he did, but he saw blood and could tell that with the right transfers (which he made), he could easily reach 30 trophies before I reach 35.That is where I could not handle Everton.

Yeah, am very impressed with how he has changed Everton.
I guess I am a build from scratch player.
Cannot wait for next season if I get through the playoffs. Reverting tactics to the good old Barnsley tactics.
With any luck you won't have to play Barnsley next year either.Yeah, am very impressed with how he has changed Everton.

Yeah would be good to barnsley Barnsley though, but fingers crossed for us both in Div 1 before we meet.
I have been trying to carry on with the same shithouse tactics. Been working well with me top of the league now with a goal difference lower than any other of the top 5 sides.

@Damo Pretty good update for you
They're just the rises I were hoping for but downgraded as I usually get screwed by the reviewers. Only thing that would have made it perfect would be a rise to Konate but his injuries come at the worst times. Hopefully after the winter break he's fit and can stay fit for Leipzig for the rest of the season.

Random question I'm in another league....what is the rough timing for a transfer to be accepted from an external club?
24 hours but transfers aren't completed between 6pm and midnight UK time
Thanks
Congrats to @Ravelation on winning the Darlington Cup.
Now ahead of Everton on trophies, though MG is set to win the League and Champions Cup so it won't be for long.

Question, do we have any records of all the Trophies won by managers as opposed to won by each team?
A question for those who have been in the gameworld since the start. What is the most players we had playing simultaneously? Next season we will have 16 players in Division 2 most likely, that seems like the most we have had in a while. It's great to see so many players as it makes the 2nd division much more interesting with more players in it.
The league is thriving man
I can do one, though in some cases I won't be sure of caf name.
Spoiler alert: the Manchester United honours is exactly the same as the number of trophies I've won.
Fairly sure that at the start we had the top 2 divisions filled and half of the third division.
So, odds are that @CrackersJr will win the SMFA Shield again this season

Woo. First player in top 10 youth player by points.
No more players please, i'd rather not get relegated straight away
Well done, bruv.
I managed to overtake you purely due to one of your players turning 22 today
Quite a few players born on 23rd Jan including two of mine that are both CBs at Porto. In the next update I won't even be in the top 10...
Congrats on being 2nd on most honours won by a manager, especially when you haven't been in the league that long comparatively.

Nice one Spontaneous, love to see how high Barnsley are
Gillingham slowly climbing, will be chasing mid table I hope in the future.

Don't worry TS that will be me....if I even get through the playoffs. You know how funky results against unmanaged teams can be sometimes.
Hmmm dropped quite a bit this month with Odegaard turning 22, will drop well outside the top 20 when Rice does... oh well was nice being near the top of a table for a while....
No... Not at all. Got a lucky 1 goal lead into the second leg, but Fulham will demolish us in the next leg
CB position at Villa looking quite promising right now despite Van Dijk leaving.
Not sure how this happened, pretty poor planning from my side as they'll all demand gametime soon enough. Who would you sell?
| Ruben Dias (90/23) | Presnel Kimpembe (91/25) |
| Eric Bailly (89/26) | Pau Torres (89/23) |
| Moucatar Diakhaby (87/24) | Sven Botman (86/20) |

Dias to United.
On a serious note, would definitely sell Diakhaby.
You lucked out with Bailly. Wouldn't honestly rely on him long term but he'll probably get a rise by the end of the season
You'll be able to rotate them all for a while. It is only when you get to my situation (and this'll come clear after the GW36 concern review) that it becomes tricky.
Diakhaby, not really a contest. Valencia are in the relegation zone and he's their starting CB. Not a good sign.
Bailly is a risk, he could easily breakdown again and be frozen at 89.
Bailly is a risk, he could easily breakdown again and be frozen at 89.
On paper yeah Diakhaby is probably the weakest of the bunch, but is still a young starter at Valencia and will probably only continue rising. This is the toughest part of the game i think, deciding who to sell on knowing full well that the player might develop fantastically in the next years and haunt you with regret. Grealish for example. Buying players is so much easier
Bailly i've wanted since United signed him, always thought he was class. Extremely unreliable injurywise of course but for cash it was worth the gamble.
True but he also must be doing something right to keep getting picked, they are still a big club after all and have options. Will try to hold on until they start developing concerns, but when that time comes it'll probably be him that goes
Valencia's owner has basically been on a mass selling spree and is no longer really backing the team with signings. With where they are in the league, Diakhaby won't be rising any time soon and I'm confident that if you do eventually sell him, you'll have no regrets.On paper yeah Diakhaby is probably the weakest of the bunch, but is still a young starter at Valencia and will probably only continue rising.

Valencia as a basket case though. More likely he drops than rises.

I genuinely think Bailly will drop to 88 first
