Losing money buying the right players . This can’t be neither right nor fun for any self respecting manager now can it . Surely there must be someone here who has a connection to the devs ? Hi topofthebilly,I toatally agree with u! I have probably been the harshest critic of SM on this forum for probably the last 8 years. I have had many issues with SM and their attitude has always been as follows:- 1: Ignore the critics and ignore the forum. We once had right here, on the forum, a form of polling where forumer's could vote on any issue they wanted to. A forum member, any member, could put up a question and with a click make it a poll of members. Many times the forum made it clear they didn't want this and that was no good, sometimes like 80 voted and all but 2 disliked what SM had done 78-2. After a number of polls SM closed down the polling feature. Many left on this issue alone after SM closed it down. BTW SM just closed it down, they didn't even tell us they were closing it. They were still "advertising" that such as they, SM and Swiki were community based. 2: SM Attitude: For the last appx 8 years SM have been bringing in measures that penalised what I call "Scouting Managers" who buy and sell to raise cash. Many tiny changes were made over the years, to help managers that basically were not much good. I can understand that they would want to keep their customers. I've forgotten most of them but much larger Cash payments at seasons end and getting rid of new 10k players who would rise are a couple. These 10k players were too obvious to us and not to poorly informed managers. So they now have a much more "Level Playing Field". OK I accepted all that but there have been many "clever" little tweaks in the years gone by and what U have said is probably the latest one as "poorer mangers" wouldn't have bought them.. So what u say about someone connecting to devs is unlikely to work as it's probably instigated by the top men anyway. 3: Never Trust SM when they say they are going to "Improve" things or for the community. Almost all SM improvements have been the opposite, including what Invision have done to our Forum... Anyway I'm still Socca- Happy and not SAD so please don't "Shoot the Messenger" with a sad "Icon" please just bringing the facts as I see them 😃😀😄 The Mad Hatter, 433, gyanthecat and 5 others 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far Post Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 Bit unsure what to do with Guendouzi. Arteta has now reintegrated him into Arsenals training and his 88 rating should be safe for the time being. Selling him however could free up some funds for strengthening. Keep or sell?

He was fouled time and time again but that didn't stop him from being MOM even after having to be "Kicked" off the pitch by about 60mins. Brilliant play by him. He could turn into another Alphonso Davies with exceptional speed and control, he attacks and defends equally well. Ohhh and Ben White was supreme as usual in everything he did. I could cry that Brighton had the sense not to accept Leeds 25million bid! Will definitely play for his country and eventually a really BIG CLUB, just a question of when? He played every minute of a championship season for Leeds and helped us NIL a lot of opponents, which he obviously did again this afternoon. Leeds United miss him so much and have conceded 7 goals in 180minutes so far. BOTH PLAYERS are must buys and have been for a long time. If either are available buy now even at max SM Price it's a "steal". 11 minutes ago, liamgriff said: Any cheap RB or LB that are going to rise to 86/87/88 soon? i currently have 2 82 rated players playing RB and LB but they are not good enough for the division but i don't have a lot of cash either See above BUY both if they are available even tho both are on right. You could sell one in future if need cash but better to keep both. Bones001 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitaliy Mykolenko - 83 -> 85 has a chance at 86 also. The problem we have is we don’t know which league is next, Ive got a starting XI top risers post coming out in a couple of days and this focuses on Austria, Russia and Ukraine who have long overdue reviews. I was going to do each country separate, but decided to do them all together because the players I outlined will probably get random reviews. Players for the future in let’s say December if they don’t get random reviews: Tyler Adams and Tariq Lamptey. Id rather be in SW19 and The Mad Hatter 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran_S91 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 On 8/30/2020 at 9:42 PM, Kieran_S91 said: Josko Gvardiol Club - Dinamo Zagreb Age - 18 Position - CB Nationality - Croatian Gvardiol is a relatively well known player who has interested a lot of top clubs around Europe. Josko is a centre half who is very comfortable in possession and already has great knowledge of the game. Highlights below: Gvardiol will become a Croatian senior international in years to come that I am sure but I think the next step of his progression is to keep gaining first team football. Very expensive and hyped in SM but definitely worth the price. SM rating - 73 Value - 1 million Joško Gvardiol (18) will join Leipzig in January 2021 at the earliest. According to Bild, it looks as if Leipzig see Gvardiol as Upamecano’s replacement. Already a MUST BUY but even more so now. https://www.getfootballnewsgermany.com/2020/rb-leipzig-beat-leeds-united-to-sign-josko-gvardiol-for-e17m/ crvena_zvezda 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
