Weeeell, I am spending around £90m over 48 months. And it's the Barca Milito.

Yeah, Areola is good, but as you said, costs a ton. 17m for me, they started playing him. He's back-up until Buffon retires, or gets worse.

2 games in, 2-1 winning fightback against Inter (and a missed pk), and a 5-0 slaughtering of Bologna. My front line is too much. Huntelaar with Costa, Neymar and Krasic behind? Goals, I tell you, goals.

90M for juventus is nothing... unless you're real life.

GOALS!!!

Wish I could say the same.

Season just finished for me, time to try and keep people happy, get money off my board and stop bigger teams stealing my players.

I'm also off to the world cup with Nigeria, let's see how that goes

Where did you end up in the league?

And I'm sure you can win it tongue.gif, England won Euro 2012 and the Olympics on mine.

Get the Yak out of retirement. And Kanu.

I finished 7th in Ligue 1

Pretty damn good! And we're one of the only clubs not in debt, but our facilities suck balls, need them upgraded

Nigeria are pretty good, Taiwo, Mikel, Enyeama, Yakubu, Obasi, Etuhu, Odemwingie are my best players I'd say

7th? Nice =)

Obasi is great, had him on an old save, muscled most defenders out.

Yeah, I also have a great regen thats at Paris FC in there as well!

Obasi is great, loads of crosses!

Mikel has been kind of crap though, he seems complacent and doesn't really do his job at all haha!

It's great being manager of a big african team, you breeze through all the qualifying sections for the world cup/african nations against teams like Djibouti and Niger giving caps to whoever the hell you want.

Chuks Aneke is in Ligue 2 and he has 4 caps under me haha

Haha, I got lucky it seems, Nigeria and Poland were free so I went for both, Nigeria accepted...

The qualifiers are too easy though, a young striker I have called Emineke has 5 caps and 8 goals... including 2 hat tricks

Hm, yeah. My assisstant manager at Juventus got the Holland job ahead of me. Then I realised my assistant manager was Hiddink. Fair enough.

Lost out on England, Turkey, Ivory Coast, Serbia, Portugal, Japan, Uruguay, Chile...you name it, I've failed the application.

Damn that's unlucky, but as I think about it, Nigeria is the only ever national team job I've ever had haha

Haven't played in a few days because of studying but I have the world cup in exactly 3 days in game, lets hope it goes well

Played half a season yesterday. Haven't lost. Milan away was the same as Inter away, a 3-2 fightback. Huntelaar has been awful..

Some bosmans for next season: Wickham (he's going to follow me everywhere), Weiss. Tried Nasri, Paloschi and Arshavin, but they either don't want to go, or have extortionate wage demands. Arsenal are apparently the highest rated club on the planet.

Nah, wait till they don't have a club and the wage demands drop substantially

If I can get Arshavin to Paris FC, you can get him haha

I have 4 games left in the season and I'm guaranteed 3rd place which means I get a Champions League qualifier spot!

Yaya Sanogo has been a beast all season, 22 goals in 27 appearances. Gonna be difficult to keep the bigger clubs from swooping.

14,000pw?
Yeah, I think I can do that. Nobody will touch him with a stick, so it'll be fine. It was someone like Paloschi, who other teams put offers (and won) in, and you can't wait.

Sulejmani on a bosman, yay. Overload of AM.

Neymar 'took a knock'. 4 months out. Joyous. Huntelaar, try and play a bit.

Yeah, he's going to be a big target come summer. And CL, nice!

Yeah, I paid a LOT in signing on fees and agent fees but it was worth it, has been pretty good this season.

I also got Wilshere on loan, and then bought him for 3M, because in 4 years at Arsenal he had played a total of 22 games and was wasting his life in the reserves.

Ugh, Don't talk to me about Sulegmani, I got him on a free as well, did **** all for a year and a half yet somehow got him shipped off to Roma for 7M

Just did an amazing piece of transfer business, am selling one defender for 10M in the summer and replacing him with a younger better model for only 4M

Edit: Sanogo and my other striker Jeannot must be having a war or something, Jeannot scores 19 in the league, Sanogo goes and scores 2 more to get 20, Jeannot scores 2 to go to 21, Sanogo scores a hat trick to go to 23.

I'm not complaining but after every match I'm getting the "Player X scores his way into record books for Paris FC"

Edit2: Sanogo just scored 4th of the match

4 in a match? Jesus.

Did nothing? Damn...time to wheel and deal him later on.

And nice, though defenders stay good forever tongue.gif

Thank god I still have Buffon, he keeps clean sheets when I should let 4 in. Especially when my midfielders enjoy their cards so much.

Edit: A job from a national team!

...Norway.

Norway eh? Can't be that bad, can they?

I won he african cup of nations with Nigeria this year actually, beat Cameroon on penalties in the final.

Yeah, 4 goals, 3 of them headers from corners haha. 26 goals in 33, I've set his price tag at 100M, lets hope they go away.

Actually yeah, I sold Marco Amelia in the summer and got in an Argentinian guy called Ojeda who has been amazing in goal for me, our success is thanks to him and our two strikers haha

Haha, just flicked through all the young players at my club to see what it says under personal.

It seems I have the next
Laurent Blanc
Marco Matterazi
Esteban Cambiasso
Diego
and
Florant Balmont

at my club. Although, yesterday the matterazi one said Phillipe Mexes... not sure which is better...
