I've just started up my first save on the Winter update with Villa. I'm interested in playing a back 3 (Maybe a 3-6-1/3-3-2-1-1) But I'm not 100% Sold on the idea. What I am certain of is some of the positions I need to fill: Definitely a first choice CB or two as I know Baker's had a...

My dealings in my first season were: Transfers Out Pre-Season Ciaran Clark to Crystal Palace Fabian Delph to Norwich Karim El Ahmadi to PSV Marc Albrighton to Leeds Alan Hutton to Nottingham Forrest Shay Given on a free Enda Stevens to Derby Gary Gardner on Loan at Milwall January Andi...

I got a couple on my Villa Save (Currently in Feb/Mar 2nd season): Juan Sanchez Mino: First Season - 27(4)Apps, 2Gls, 9Asts, 7.18 Ave. RT Second Season - 23(4)Apps, 2Gls, 9Asts, 7.50 Ave RT Augustin Allione: First Season - 30(7)Apps, 10Gls, 4Asts, 7.18 Ave. RT Second Season - 15(5)Apps...

There's a few fringe players, who aren't bad tbh, but are definitely second choices, that you can sell to get some cash. El Ahmadi, and Clark go for around ?3m each (Maybe a little more for Clark), Albrighton can go for around ?900k and is on ?20k per week, Hutton and Given can be got rid of...

If you need a one for right now go for Iago Aspas. EU national, speaks (basic) English and has a release fee of £8.75m. and absolute beast in the DLF role. Also check out Léo from Rayo, £7m release fee and looks good. and as always Fierro is great, but I found he needs time to develop so can't...

Not a bad first season, not great mind you. I got screwed over by Injuries and the African cup of nations. Aspas was brilliant, untill he was out for 4/5 months and when I replaced him with Fischer, he got injured for 3/4 months T-T Still 10th placed finish wasn't too bad, gives me something to...

Just started this earlier and I'm currently 4th after 6 games, which isn't too bad considering my first 3 games were Man City , Spurs and Arsenal. Transfers:

I dunno, I think they've got a lot of the PA's spot on: A villa game on the new patch has its challenges, but once it hits its stride it looks like its gonna be fun. Im prob gonna start a story soon

Lowton, Westwood and Weimann do look good. A major problem I've ran into is getting rid of the ones on Big Wages. Dunnes out for 10 Months so no-one will put a bid in, Given and Ireland turned down the teams I offered them to (They wanted big wages >.>) and When I did finally get Bent offered to...

Its a massive challenge on the new patch; £100k over your starting wage budget (Although you can ask the board to give you a little extra which knocks it down to £40k over budget), £0 transfer Budget and you only get 75% of any transfers you make (although you can convince them to raise it to...

Has anyone tried a formation with 3 CB's yet? I've been playing around and it seems ok tbh. I'm thinking of doing something like this: GK: Brad Guzan RCB(d): Ron Vlaar LD(c): Jores Okore (£1.3m)/Grant Hanley(£2.5m + Fabian Delph) LCB(d): Ciaran Clark LWB: Juan Sanchez Mino (£2.5m) RWB...

I'm about to start my big Villa game and have no clue how to fill out the last couple of spots on the team. I'm gonna play a 3-2-2-1-2 like this: Formation: http://bit.ly/RGBCT3 (From 20 tactics of the 2000's by Yurt: 20 Tactics of the 2000s) and I know most of my team: GK: Guzan LCB: Clark...

I had some good games with Benteke as a DLF at the top of a 4-2-3-1. He ran the show at Old Trafford for example, scoring 2 and setting up Tom Ince for the third in a thrilling 3-2 victory. But Wiemann as a ADF is also a good prospect so I'd suggest getting as much as you can for Bent and...
