Gaming The SM RedCafe League

This is how my lineup looks now (age in brackets):

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------- PINTO 87 (36) ----------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ???????? 8X (2X) - FERNANDEZ 87 (23) - CAHILL 88 (26) - NAGATOMO 88 (25) -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------- HENRIQUE 88 (26) -------- KACAR 88 (25) ---------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------- ITURBE 83 (18) ---------- HONDA 89 (25) ---------- GAITAN 89 (24) ----------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------- WELLITON 89 (25) -------------------------------------

Bench: NETO 85 (22), WHITE 82 (20), LEES 80 (21), COQUELIN 83 (20), PUGH 83 (29), DELPH 84 (22), BECCHIO 83 (28)

My bench is very weak. Hopefully over the coming weeks I can strengthen it and pad out my squad so I can rotate more.

And does average age have an impact?
 
Impressive... lets just hope Chelsea centre-backs get a bunch of injuries :D

My current wage bill is £460,590.... I'm sure it'll be fine :nervous:
 
My average age of my 1st team is nice and low :)

2 signings left and then I might look around for 1 loan deal. Pretty much done though. feel very happy with my squad, just a shame I wasted so much money on day 1.
 
I just made my last play for a few players I want my loan players back but they are all out at English clubs and thus seem to be impossible to recall.

Why have you got rid of David Luiz and Gary Cahill and brought in Danny fecking Shittu? :wenger:

David Luiz was part-exchanged for Iniesta (Looking back I should've used Mikel or Kalou really) and I lent Cahill out as a favour to Damo. He was my 4th CB and so hopefully I won't need him (I can rotate Samuel in and out of the team to rest Puyol and Terry), but if I do me and Damo have an agreement to let me have him back if I do.

Best of both worlds. I got Shittu in just to give me some cover in case Damo isn't around
 
Seriously finished now... can't find anyone else I want/can afford.

-----------------------De Gea (89)

-Rafael (89)----Vidic (96)----Mascherano (93)----Badstuber (91)
------------------(C)-------------------------------------

--------Robinho (93)---Cambiasso (94)---Nani (93)


------------------------Sneijder (95)

-----------------Messi (99)----Ibrahimovic (96)

Subs:
Lindegaard (87)
Smalling (88)
Jones (89)
Cleverley (86)
Canales (87)
Young (90)
Hernandez (90)

I reckon that's enough depth to rotate as well for the different comps.

Average rating 89, average age 24, total wages £979,125.
 
If I can't beat Cheltenham tomorrow I don't deserve to play.

Why not get in another CM Zarlak? Not got many it seems...

Nah I got enough. If any get injured the others can jig about. Cleverley can fill in if one gets injured, if 2 get injured I can put Hernandez up front with Ibra, Messi dropped back to CAM, Sneijder in CM with Cleverley etc. Even Jones can play there, with Pogba as a last resort. Scholes and Anderson are on loan as well so I got 2 CMs there if I need them back end of the season.

Ah right ok.

I think it'll be interesting to see how much money we all get from gate receipts. I just remembered that Stamford Bridge is tiny compared to others... Why did I pick them?!

That's what I plan to happen when I inevitably need Cahill back. Then when I'm done with Cahill, RS can have him. And then AN.

Yep. You're a good guy, Ned.

Have you heard of the Good Guy Greg meme?

From this moment on I'll call you Good Guy Ned, and for me at the moment you've got my vote for Nicest Guy at the end of year caf awards :D

What you've done is very much appreciated.
 
It's going to be hilarious if we can't pay the wages and are forced to sell players in a couple of weeks.

I'm playing Leverkusen in the Champions League, feel free to buy their best players.
 
I've just realised (after going for 2 or 3 more deals) that I have no self control at all.

I should get 3 of the 4 deals I've got left, and the fourth is a lottery though I expect the player will go to the team in the better division and where he'll see himself as more likely to get games even though he'll be a starter here.

The player will go to whoever made the most valuable offer. If both clubs offered exactly the same, the club who bid last will get the player.
 
Anyone who's playing has access to the newbies forum? It would be cool to get more players to at least fill the clubs in Division 2, a thread could be opened there to bring more players in.
