Yeah, i did.
But it was with a Premiership team, so its obvious who he would choose.
Annoying though
.Gotta sign someone else now.
Signed a few good players though.

Ah bad luck. One benefit of managing Man Utd there aren't many leagues above us.Yeah, i did.

In FM07 I think chairman accepted an offer on Pique and I didn't offer him a new deal! Duh. 
If I really wanted to keep a player I would offer him a lot more than he would be worth, just to try and persuade him to stay.
Prepare for muchos goodness. Him on the left and Ronaldo on the right =Signed him.
He's so good, nice sharp shooting, crosses, pace.

I would order them thus: 1st Ronaldo. 2nd Silva. 3rd Messi. Why Messi 3rd? Gets injured all the time.
Anything up to £1bn is good.Silva is immense.
How much did you pay?
STOP IT! Can't breathe. Must stop laughing.My winger is Super Simon Davies

You obviously haven't experienced the wonder of getting a BSS/BSN side through the football leagues yet then?
Takes a lot of work, but it's a nice accomplishment when you manage to get into the Championship/Premiership.

I no has patience for that. Plus I can never work out what team to be.

Just pick the one closest to you
Gives you a sense of taking your "local" side to success.
It's great when you land your first big transfer a few seasons into the game... I've managed to bag Frank Sinclair... even though he is about 38ish in my game he's still better than most of the defenders I can get
Yeah... that's right... Frank "King of the Own Goal" Sinclair

Hmm £63m in all? You better keep him for ages.£35M upfront. Then £28M over 24 months.
He better be worth it.
Hmm ex-keeper for Chelsea in the late 80s?Jesus

Had £40M to spend like I said then received next seasons transfer budget a bit later - £98M in total.Jesus
Well my local side in FM would probably be Haverfordwest... and since they're already in the highest Welsh league it wouldn't be that fun... Swansea are fun as I actually support them (along with United)... lower leagues I tend to go for Newport County.Trouble is my local town is WAAY TOO small. Leighton Buzzard.
Other than those, it's whomever I take a fancy too

Quality goals. The last one, backpass, best of the lot.Thought you'd like that one
Yeah i just chose the most local team to me, which happens to be 10 minutes away .
My biggest signings were Simon Davies, Anelka (for like 2 months and he was injured till retiring
), and a few from the Championship.
Building a fairly solid team now, relying on freebies from like Utd etc, and Under 18s.
It takes a lot of patience though, like if you miss play offs by one point or something, you've gotta play another 46 games to get the chance to get promoted again.
Heading into the 2013/14 season i think.

Got to take a look at this Silva bloke me thinks
You do not know of him!? MY GOD MAN! GET A GRIP!!

He's a fabulous talent, he's got a minimum release clause of around £60mil I think.
I normally make a point of buying him in any footie game, whether it be Season Mode in Fifa or FM
If you can afford him of course
