I have been asked this before
. I don't like tabs really, I don't use it in anything that offers it really. I am used to it this way . Plus i have a shocking memory and this way I don't forget anything is open.

Is it me or are a lot of the regens generated with very low natural fitness?

It does seem that way but I can't complain, I have done pretty well in the regen lottery .
.
I did this too recently. Switched to a 3-5-2ish formation. Allowed me to utilise the large amount of defensive mids they have in the team. I also sold Pirlo to Barca for around 20-25 mil and brought in Cardozo from Benfica. Him and Pato upfront have been so good that i've not lost a game all season.
Alternatively, Ambrosini has played well as a defender on my game when needed. Perhaps its something to consider until January when the board will most likely raise your budget.
Nice.

hahahaa
The only problem is I would hate to sell pirlo, hes one of favourite players at AC, but then in order to get money theres no one else
I like Pirlo as a player, but he's not someone who fits in with my overall vision for the team. For me, the money I made off him was worth it as both Flamini and Gatusso are two VERY capable players. They've been rock solid for me all season.
The player i've been most surprised with however has been Borriello. He's mostly made substitute appearances but has been fantastic in each one.
Ive seen that on a couple of guys posts on the SI forums, whereby they keep him as a squad player but ends up scoring a lot of goal either starting or from the bench.
My main dilemma at the minute is that after selling Seedorf, I need a replacement attacking mid. Kaka is good but generally inconsistent on my game. Like Borriello, Seedorf was crap when he started but amazing off the bench.
Edit: Signed Kranjcar for 7.5 mil and clauses (rising to 12 after 30 games) from Pompey. Should give Ronaldinho some cover down the left.

Wait till the media says someone is after him, and then suggest you'd be willing to let him leave for the right price. I did that and the next day Barca sent the offer.
