Rahul W's rating predictions

[Kieran_S91 7,088]

Manchester United’s new 3rd kit (this is bound to get some hammer) 😂

 

 

They need to play in this against Newcastle, some optical illusion that would be 😂

I actually quite like it.

I bought Marin PONGRAČIĆ some time ago for 3M . He got a rating change from 83 to 85 on 19th of July and his value rose to 5M .
Now I see his value has dropped to 3M again (!!?) .

It's his birthday soon , so I will be making a loss on a perfectly good buy .

I am afraid they are going to release the "new update" and market these market value fluctuations as being something positive . While to me all this randomness in player values just takes the fun out of it really .

I have many more with similar value changes (mainly drops) in my team that make no sense . Lodi (16 to 14) , Martinelli (6 to 5 after a + in rating) , Ferguson (2.4 to 1.4 after a transfer from championship to PL) ... .

 

Agree with you 100%. They are trying to up the value of inform talents while simultaneously trying to stop teams in the game from simply making money....they are trying to kill that in favour of buying and holding

Mentioned Ilic a while back, very good signing for anyone looking to buy a potential good riser this season

Yes, should play this season.

Better than Mings towards the end of the season.

Safonov, Donelli, Pitaluga, Ramsdale, Henderson, Vandervoort, Nubel.

Cheers matey.... Last but no means least any strikers? 

Zirkzee... Vinecius... Greenwood.. Ansu fati... Felix..Rashford.. Haaland..any more under 22 years old you'd recommend? Thanks a lot mate

Sergio Ramos 95 --> 96 ?

Hasn't been updated since 2013

He is 34 and still the second highest centre back on the game. 

Is he still the second best CB itw? Open to debate.

Either ways, he will drop to 94 by end of next season imo (predicting).

No.... I think he's not improved enough over the years to merit a rise to 96 - when he plays bad, he's plays really bad (constant red cards), that could why he's never reached up to a 96.

Plus SM are sometimes harsh or sometimes too generous regarding player ratings.

Senior Ramos is 34 years, a WC, CL and La Liga winner as well: he'd already be a 96 by now if garnier thought he was worth it! 😀

Was this kit inspired by Harry Maguire's suspended sentence? 😀

Good gosh it's gotta be up there with the worst 3rd kit i've ever seen! 🙄

Okay Big5 is finished and gone. Time for me to try & get a bit ahead of SM with some more spreadsheet predictions.

My rough plan for the days and months ahead. Start with Russia possibly tomorrow. A bit of Austria's main clubs after that, Red Bull, Rapid etc.   Switzerland only got St Gallen in the spreadsheet atm. but then move to France to pick up new players this season already started. At the same time keeping an eye on Swiki continually to see what is SM's likely next move.

Then finally getting all the new players at their right BIG5 clubs and starting to track Big5 onto mid season predictions. Will SM delay BIG5 reviews until January??

I won't be taking on such as MLS as too many clubs and players to get into my spreadsheet and not worthwhile profits for the huge effort and time it would entail.

The last few weeks haven't been too bad BUT from this Saturday I will like most of U all, be watching an awful lot of Premiership football starting with an ominous Leeds match away to Champions of Premiership, Liverpool. I don't expect to get any charity there.... 

That's the rough plan, rough is the word. I don't expect SM to review Belgium or Portugal or Netherlands (Holland) b4 next year either. BUT we will all have to contend with SM's threat of "Random Risers" which won't help all of us predictors as they will "come out of the blue" I suppose. Cheers Socca😀

Just got a BIG post hidden. It never ends....☹️😦🥺

[BrutBrutBrut 227]

I don't like my top players aging. I refer to get younger talent so I can rest my laurels a bit and not have to replace them all the time.

I have secured the option of swapping my SALAH for L. MARTINEZ.

I already have STERLING, MANE, PULISIC, O. DEMBELE, SANCHO, I. SARR and NERES for my attack (not to mention B. SILVA, who I use as a CM and CALVERT-LEWIN and J. KLUIVERT out on loan).

I am not short and I am already looking at SALAH's age and noting that it won't be too long until I will be unable to cash in with him.

Trade or keep?

Thanks.

Depay personal terms agreed with Barcelona. Hes cheap so Broke Barca are interested. Messi/Fati/Griezman/Depay/Dembele is 2 cooks too many. On the bright side expect +1 for even if he starts 7 games(the SM barca way)

aouar, marquinhos, sabitzer, some of the players that are very unlucky, because they don't play for ajax or aston villa, otherwise they would already had a rise, well deserved because of their performance and compared with ajax spikes just one year ago, or with magic villa, able to avoid relegation in the very last second after spending 100 millions last summer. there is peoples that is born to make money, because they know how to do and they help each other to make more, and they call themselves "the chosen", just like lebron james. now guess ajax, aston villa and SM property have in common.

Mohammed Sankoh (16) completed his move to Stuttgart from Stoke City.

Played for Stoke at u23 level and was part of the Netherlands u17 team last year who won the European Championships, played alongside Unuvar, Hansen, Brobbey, Maatsen, Hoever, Taylor, Rensch.

 

Mohammed Sankoh (16) added this morning, worth investing in

ah yes, Zweite Liga, that's what I was waiting for

Is anyone here subscribed to The Athletic? Seen they are doing an offer atm so just wondering if anyone would recommend it.

Not so many as @Kierans91 had a week ago, but still 56 notifications....  when I'm back on my pc.

Looks to me like the old razzle dazzle:

Unlike other forms of camouflage, the intention of dazzle is not to conceal but to make it difficult to estimate a target's range, speed, and heading.

United going to extreme lengths to get results this year 😅

I'm not sure what to make of it! But it's clear that they were inspired by 'dazzle ships' that were used in World War 1! (Google 'dazzle ships' if you don't know about this, it's very interesting!)

SWIKI Today: Conclusion: No indication of SM's next Country Review. Just a continuation of 18 and a half pages of Tracking what I think is player movements over the whole world (Loans, transfers, new added players).

Many Turkish clubs all between 5 and 8 players, Yeni Matalyaspor and Erzurumspor with 8 apiece, etc etc Cheers Socca 😃

Hey, i need a GK 90+ rating around 15 million whose rating won't decrease soon.

I was thinking about David De Gea (92) who is above my budget but i'm not sure if he will get downgraded or not.What is your opinion?

Yeah I’ve got it, Rahul kindly gave me a free trial and I accidentally forgot to cancel so paid a lump some of £59.99 🙈😂

I don’t regret it though because it does have quality content.

Just had a look and you are spot on it does 😂

Can’t believe they actually used this as a type of camouflage, I would of thought that the ships would of stuck out like a sore thumb.

@Risen44

Schmeichel, Patricio, Gulacsi, Burki, Strakosha theres a fair few to be honest.

All the top leagues are done so you will be safe buying anyone from the top 5 leagues for at least until December January time.

I'd avoid de Gea and go for one of the guys Kieran mentioned
