    Luis Saha to Toulouse for $1 mil
    Typical Man City overpaying the crap out of people, lol.

    In my save, they paid Ibrahim Afellay like £9m p/a wages and his transfer fee was something ridiculous,.....and they sat him in reserves for like 5 years in a row without a single league appearance. No one could afford to acquire him either. They transfer listed him, and his fee was only like £2.4m, but no one could afford the wages he was expecting, lol.

      That's what they did to Landon, too. I was trying to get him at the beginning and they offered something like $10mil to transfer him and pay him around $145,000 a week. He got a few starts here and there for them, but for the better part of the season was a backup, with some subs in. I did get a chance to negotiate with him but he was looking for a ridiculous amount of money.

        I'm at the halfway point of the 2016/2017 season with Liverpool here.

        We're currently sitting 2nd in the table with a 13-3-3 record, 2 points behind Manchester United. We're on pace to set a modern day Premier League 38-game season team scoring record, currently with 60 goals in 19 games. The record is held by Chelsea with 103 goals. The overall top flight record is held by the 1930-1931 Aston Villa side with 128 goals in the First Division. We're set to fall short of that mark, but shatter the Modern Day (Post-1992) record.

        Torres leads the team with 13 goals, with Lukaku behind him at 11. Asamoah has turned into the Ghanian version of Frank Lampard as far as scoring from midfield is concerned, with 9 goals thus far. This is nothing new for him, as he's scored 15, 13, 10, 12, and 16 in the previous 5 years. Biabiany has 4 goals and 14 assists as my leading assist man.

        Also failed to mention a season or two ago that Rooney has the new Premier League record for goals in a season with 38 in 37 appearances in 2014/2015. He has also surpassed Alan Shearer's 260 career league goals, currently on 266 with no signs of slowing down just yet with 15 goals in 18 appearances this year. Sorry Newcastle fans.

            Dude may be a beast, but I make as much as him per week!

            (though my estimated value is probably short all of those 0s)

                The sickest regen in the history of regens...got BETTER.

                Average rating for league games he plays in, in 127 apps: 8.41! lol

                Before:



                Now:



                God. I wish I could save him from Sevilla. I mean he's world class at centre back where they're playing him, but he really should be playing midfield.

                  Booooo @ selling Fellaini. Seems like a massive step backwards if you're going to have Palacios starting in place of Fellaini.

                      Thinkin about starting a new save up. I havent played since the game came out and I totally overkilled it with Newcastle and burnt myself out.

                      Its either going to be Fulham, or Southampton.... Who shall it be?

                        I told myself if I could get $20+ I would sell him.

                          If you have extra money and Palacios isn't working out, which is possible, although I think he's rated pretty well in the game, go for Defour or Moussa Sissoko. They both can become just as good or better than Fellaini, for half the price.

                            Javi Martinez, Nuri Sahin, Daniel Kofi Agyei, Steven N'Zonzi, and Jack Collison are good options as well.

                              This is pretty much going to be my main lineup with the exception of Mucha (Howard is out for a few weeks).
