Gaming The SM RedCafe League

After a bit of a cull, my squad is back up to a manageable 45. Missed out on 2 prospects, but went for others straight away. That's me broke!
 
I just tried to log in to see if i remembered my password and shit, saw the original league and had a look at it. I was very surprised to see Middlesbrough manager-less and still in the top division! I managed them last time i played, i expected them to be back down by now though!

The original league has got very competitive in Division 1. Boro look safe from relegation as well, West Brom I imagine probably has a fair bit of money in the bank, as will Wolves.

Yeah West Brom have £85M, Wolves only have £400k though. Middlesbrough have £55M to play with. Don't know the code for the other league (unless it's hidden in here somewhere) so i can't have a nosey at that right now.
 
+ 1, Ando's a bit miffed he missed out on Karius! He's got some great players in though, so can't complain the wee scamp! :p

Ya, he gonna get a nice bump, decent keeper too! I'm happy with the 3 I got in though, Cillessen may get a similar rise to Karius. You snapped up a few decent lads recently too!

@Mr Anderson I want him MN too but cant have everyone so gotta make a call. Top prospect though.

Ya, I had a few picked out and not enough cash to do so. Still a few out there I'd like to get, but they are long term lads anyways. You have picked up a few decent ones also!
 
Half tempted to go for this one too.

Its such a rush these transfers :lol:

I've made a fair few at Forest in the past few days. Got rid of some youngsters that weren't getting gametime.

My cup squad for next season will be:

89 Bernd Leno, 21
84 Mario Lemina, 20
84 Erik Durm, 21
86 Josip Drmic, 21
85 Leonardo Bittencourt, 20
87 Florian Thauvin, 21
87 Ogenyi Onazi, 21
85 Robin Knoche, 21
87 Aymeric Laporte, 19
87 Benjamin Mendy, 19
86 Vincent Aboubakar, 22

All aged 22 or younger. Hopefully a few will rise before the cup run, but I'm very happy with that. A huge improvement on this seasons cup side. Just need Durm and Lemina to rise and the team will be 85+

Yeah, happy with the last 2. You forced my hand with Druissi, wanted to wait longer.

That's a very good cup team. Good rating, all at a great age. Nice!

I want to have a look at the ones I have and sell the ones that arent playing anymore but I just cant get myself to look up 50 odd players :lol:
Perhaps I'l just wait till end of season.

They've had a manager since you managed them who resigned not that long ago. Would be great to see you back.

Well the Forest Evolution has gone from:

First Team (Season 1)

L.FELIPE 88 (28)
L.CHAMBERS 84 (26)
V.BRENO 86 (22)
B.ANGOUA 86 (25)
C.GUNTER 84 (22)
C.KABORÉ 88 (24)
V.ANITA 87 (22)
J.CALLEJÓN 88 (25)
J.JENAS 88 (29)
R.ALVAREZ 87 (23)
F.MACHEDA 83 (20)

To my current cup team, which is slightly worse, but not by much.... Macheda and Jenas.... :lol::lol:
 
My ressies:

85, Jan oblak

84, Layvin Kurzawa
89, Otamendi
87, Toloi
89, Chiriches

85, Tom Ince
85, Rabiot
86, Kramer
83, Halilovic
83, Laxalt

86, Berrardi


I can be cheeky and include Diego Costa in that :p Laxalt will prob go to 84/85 sooner or later. Dropped since Christmas though at Bolonga. Others should rise too. Other than that, it ain't too shabby, especially in defence.
 
Reserves:

ter Stegen (89), 21

Jones (89), 21
Dominguez (89), 24
Martinez (89), 22
Caulker (87), 22

Reinartz (89), 25
Delph (86), 24
Imbula (87), 21

Moses (88), 23
Ferreyra (87), 22
Mirallas (89), 26
 
Reserves

Amos (82), 23

Aurier (88), 21
Papadopoulos (89), 21
Digne (88), 20

Rafael (91), 23
Eriksen (90), 21
McCarthy (89), 23
Pogba (90), 20
Sandro (89), 23

Balotelli (91), 23
Michu (90), 27

When I sell Michu, Carrick and Vidic once the season is over, my reserves will change massively.
 
Berrardi, Insigne and Florenzi are all West Ham bound! Berrardi should get 88 or 89 if SM are feeling generous and maybe a 90 for Florenzi.

Still have plenty to spend, just not sure who all to spend it on atm...
 
Berardi is ace. Prob wont have a chance of hitting 89, unless Juve buy the other 50% of the co-ownership off Sassulo this summer. 88 is prob achievable at a relegation team.

88 is pretty much nailed on I reckon. He's the 2nd highest scorer in Serie a which will overcome Sassuolo's league form. 89 is unlikely but if he bang in a few more before the changes then you never know

Ratings depend on the form, club standings and league rating. Since Sassulo are probably gonna be relegated, or a few points off, SM/soccerwiki would never reward him with an 89. He will get it if at Juve though, no probs. I'd love it, since I have him in the original league! But he wont get it, not just yet.
 
An hour to go, my boys are getting fired up in the dressing room! Don't think my Forest team can beat City, 3 of my first team out, losing Lewandowski is a huge blow. While my Arsenal team should hopefully be able to beat Damiens Tottenham.
 
Win for my Cardiff side, with a Gary Medel red card...
 
Unsurprisingly lost in the original caf league, while I drew against Arsenal in the new caf league with my team arguably the better side on the day.

Forest:

Drew 0-0 away to Manchester City without 3 first teamers. Bossed the possession too, I'll take that result!

Arsenal:

Drew 3-3 away to Spurs, again bossed the stats in every respect, just a little unfortunate. Again, I'll take that result.
 
Lads, only one of you could have been the better team.
 
Looking at the fixture run in, I'd expect Chelsea or United to win the title. Spurs have the toughest run-in.
 
Pretty awful performance from City, Forest controlled the game and should have won really. Drawn far too many games this season.
 
@Damien Arsenal dicked all over you...arguably the better side :lol:
 
Games starting to feck me off again, 6-7 straight wins and now 4 straight defeats.
 
Won both my matches, bale is out injured though. Kinda annoying, messi not performing to expectations either. On the plus side, clean sheet :D
