Taking its time.

See what I can do.
 
Feel free to send the links to anyone you want. Extract all of them to Documents/Sports Interactive/Graphics

I have noticed that on the install of the game I get 2 "Sports Interactive" folders in my "Documents" folder - does everyone get the same and if so, which do I use to put in the face packs etc??

Yep, that is true! Well, see the contents of each file. There is one that has more folders, and there is one with less folders. Put a graphics subfolder in the one that has more folders in it already. I have the following folders (might have added some myself for pictures, videos etc.) editor data, games, graphics, matches, skins, sounds, tactics, uploads.

If you have any more problems, you can ask me again, (I'll try provide pics/video) or just look on sortitoutsi or just google it :p
Legend,

thanks!
No problem mate! I think they all have the latest update, although I'm not 100% sure. Mega is unlimited download speed yes? Uploaded them there for that reason (and because I have over 10GB storage and can upload files as large as 7GB)
 
I think my team is unbeatable now lol.. Richest club in the world and I've only won the Premiership twice. I've got some absolutely epic players. Best I've ever had I would say. But I've got lots of them. I've got half a dozen world class potentials, playing for the first team. And if I want to splash the cash, I don't even need to blink now. I can buy a £40 million player just like that.. Bizarre how I got to this position from lowly League 1.
 
Hehe...

Sitting pretty at the top of the league, unbeaten for 14 games and everyone firing.

Lost 2-0 to Stoke at home (bottom of the league) and I've gone on to lose the next 9 games conceding 5 or more goals in 5 of those 9.

Cracking! :p

*edit*

lost the next 4 games to the end of the season, conceding 3, 3, 7 and 1, finished 6th and got sacked by Spurs!

Not sure how to describe my season. Spent 15M (3 players total lol) this season, mostly over 48 months with some money up front. Managed to get Berardi and Januzaj on loan, which have been quite good for me. I sold just 1.8M.

I wanted to have a good cup run, like last year (brought in a lot of money). Got knocked out in the 2nd round to rivals Hanover. ****

Started well in the league, always in European positions, but after 12 games, i sit 11th.

In the Europa League I have been brilliant. Was drawn in a difficult group, with Marsielle, Pandurii and H. Tel Aviv. i managed to win 4 games out of 4 (till now) including 2 games against Marsielle. I scored 7 and conceded 3, not bad. Marsielle have 4 points, so I am guaranteed 1st place too. :D Got around 180k per win, so that is already a good amount of money. Need to go much further though.

Aiming for European qualification through the league now.
 
Hi. So I am playing with Braunchweig, and I am in the 3rd season. I managed to get in the Europa league to a good cup run (lost final against Dortmund on Penalties!)

This season isn't going too good, as I am around11th in the league and out of the cup (went out in the 2nd round :( ). On the plus side, I qualified 1st in my Europa league group. Now I need to toughen up my team for the last part of the season.

I sold Hernandez (ST, playing for Palermo irl) as he wasn't performing, just 3 goals in half a season. Got 12M for him. I also sold my RB and LB for small money.

Now I need to buy a LB and a ST. Help me chose between these options.

LB
Antonio Luna:
Stats:
AntonioLuna_OverviewAttributes_zps3e7a97ff.png

Transfer Fee: 4.7M
Contract:
JoeBorg_NewsInbox-4_zps77cfe0a7.png

Other: His contract and price seem fair, but I'm a bit worried about his stats. The other alternatives seem a bit better. But this guy is younger, and thus has more time to develop.

Seamus Coleman:
Stats:
SeamusColeman_OverviewAttributes_zps5d2be92b.png

Transfer Fee: 5M
Contract:
JoeBorg_NewsInbox-3_zps08109544.png

Other: He is normally a RB, but he can play at LB. his contract isn't too high, and the initial transfer fee is right. I am just a bit worried as he is naturally a RB, hence right footed. He has a weak left foot.


Santiago Garcia:
Stats:
SantiagoGarciacutea_OverviewAttributes_zpse2755b37.png

Transfer fee: 4.6M
Contract status:
SantiagoGarciacutea_ContractContractOffer_zps06560e8a.png

Other: This guy seems the best to me, although his wage is the highest of all. My team only has one player over 30k/w, and I feel 45k can be used better.


ST:
Dentinho:
Stats:
Dentinho_OverviewAttributes_zps40aea0a1.png

Transfer fee: 650k
Contract status: I don't have a picture, but it is around 25k/w with some bonuses on top.
Other: Dentinho's contract expires in summer, but I still need a striker, and this guy seems to have a good bang for buck value. He is naturally an AML (which is a bit concerning) and he is injured for quite some time. I was thinking that i can offload him next summer, or in 1 1/2 years time, with a decent profit, but he will effectively miss my EL clash, which doesn't leave much else.

Simone Zaza:
Stats:
SimoneZaza_OverviewAttributes_zps5b51aa17.png

Transfer fee: 5M
Contract status: I don't have a picture, but around 45k/w with some bonuses.
Other: This guy looks ok for 5M, but he has a high wage, and is also injured (missing my EL game(s)). He is a natural ST though.

Paolo Dyabala:
Stats:
PauloDybala_ContractContractOffer_zpsef167ac9.png

Transfer fee: 7M
Contract status:
PauloDybala_ContractContractOffer_zpsef167ac9.png

Other: His wage wouldn't be a problem, but his 2 biggest problems are his attacking stats and his transfer fee. 7M ain't little for a club my size, and his stats aren't of a pure striker. He is young though, and he can improve. Although worth noting that I got Hernandez from Palermo too, and he was a mini-flop (although I made quite a lot of money on him, bought for 6M, sold for 12M)

So guys, which two would you chose?
 
I've played with Zaza and Dybala in previous saves. Zaza was some time back, and he was pretty good for an 'average' club maybe he would be a good purchase. I don't know where your club would sit in the league normally. He is better than Dybala. I bought Dybala for £4m and sold him for £6m a year later. He wasn't all that good for me. I notice now, 4 seasons on he is playing for Fulham and worth just £1.2m.
 
Here are 3 of my chaps in my latest Swindon Town save. Still doing well as a club, won 6 trophies last season including the CL. Beat Real Madrid in the final which was epic.

Here's my top striker at the moment. Pretty good wouldn't you say?

Here's my good, reliable midfielder. Look at how much he's worth now!

13101124535_36b5645307_b.jpg


and here's one of my few hot prospects, who will be backing up my first team this coming season.

13101237263_0cb63c66b6_b.jpg


I had a striker even better than Giron but I lost him to PSG as he had a £35m release clause which I forgot about until it was too late! Doh! After that I hired a DOF to take care of all contracts. That said, I see he has a torn hamstring at the moment and is out for at least 3 months.. Bitter sweet..
