dont buy cards to heal them - play someone else until theyre fit again. You dont need a physio to do this though I believe they speed things up. You could always buy a bronze pack for 500 coins to get some backup players if you find your team ravaged by injuries.

I am having problems making money in this game. I have 11 gold players that I like, and a gold manager. My team chemistry is 100. I make 1000+ coins as I smash the computer by 4 goals or more on legendary.. but I just can't seem to make money. I constantly have to pay money for player contracts, fitness cards, or injury healing cards. I even sell a good deal of cards and make quiet a profit off of that, but it just isn't enough for me to make money to buy players I really want. I am currently playing a 442 formation and have a 4 1/2 star team, but I really want to incorporate some stars into my team like Wayne Rooney, Steven Gerrard, etc. Only problem is you need a 442 formation card to do this, and this goes for 30,000+. I can NEVER see myself having that much money.
My only thought would be to make a 2nd team that is only 3 stars, and keep my gold players in the reserve. I could save money by only having to use bronze packs to get the player contracts.. but, this solution would really risk my chances of winning and making a lot of coins, simply because my team would be worse.
Any recommendations mates?

This seems like a good approach.. I just can't see anyone buying my overpriced cards though.
Like I say, I got lucky; my approach tends to be to start the bidding pretty low (although with gold cards make sure you'll get at least 500 for them, otherwise you will earn more sending them to the collection) but to put high buy it now prices on some "star" cards; if someone is rich and desperate for a card you may get lucky!
Also sell any training cards you don't desperately need at the start - you can get good money for them, which, while you're still building your bank balance, is more use than giving a player or two an extra point.
Don't do any of these things.
I made my team by playing with a 2star rated team on legendary and smashing 5goals in against a 5star team. You make around 1500coins per game then you can easily replace anyone on the 2 star team when his contract is up or is injured. If his fitness is low it only takes 1 game on the bench to get back up to 99.
Whilst you do this you can save up for Gold cards and players. You don't need an all 4-4-2 team as long as there is enough to maintain a 100chemistry. I have Rooney and Gerrard and can drop them in with no loss to my team.
If you flick through the rest on the thread people give away a lot of good tips.
Bad language so can't link it here!!
Could be worse, could be Steve Bruce
LOL, rather Grayson than Bruce any day fella...good comeback
head coach ratings are all a bit pointless, they all have different stat boosts. I sell all gold head coaches for 2k as people are usually lazy and buy it now.
I have a 99 rated Eduardo and I'm struggling to get much for him. Probably end up taking 10k or something silly. Big money goes for big players, or popular position/nationalities such as 442 spanish players, or Torres and Ronaldo.
Gold staff and player contracts probably go for 1kish maybe a bit more for the staff ones.

lol, no you wouldn't, surely?
Anywho, managed to get rid of all my coins (220,000) and my squad for £20 to pay for Star Ocean next month, so quite happy.
Yes I would...
I'm pretty damn sure a whole host of Leeds fans would agree with me there.
Well you took Kiddo, so you have experience of taking from us.
Although, I'm sure he's scared you off for life.
Aye, never again, we have a history of taking idiots for assistant managers.
