I started a game with Porto and did an AVB 1st season, built an awesome squad and were killing each game, Juventus, Chelsea, Man City managers all got sacked around the same time, I applied for Chelsea and Juve first, both got rejected, then City came up a day after that!
I have never managed them nor have I managed in the EPL since my 1st proper save with United several months ago!
I applied and they offered me a 4 year, 45k deal! £63 million budget
this was end of November 2011.
they were lying 16th in the table
hahahaha and have overpayed on so many players with the most ridiculous contracts for players I have ever seen...
Farfan was on like 102k a week ffs! so I took the job
want to get Europe this season (even Europa) win a small cup, 2nd season, win smaller Cup, F.A or Carling and qualify for the ECL as well as challenging for the title, then win everything from there!
I have soldfor the following players:
Adebayor (still have to pay him 52k a week for 2 years, better than 150k) £9.8m
Barry (still trying to get him to go to Schalke, he rejects their contracts) £5.25
Caicedo (Spartak Moscow) £5.8m
Radoi (Stoke City) £8.5m
Wright Phillips (free to Wigan)
Given (cant remember, £2.8m)
other useless keeper (£1.4 to Tottenham)
Farfan (trying to straight swap Porto for Moutinho but Farfan rejects at the last hurdle)
trying to get rid of:
Onahua, Bellamy, Richards (out on loan at Liverppol, stats are worse than I have ever seen before) Santa Cruz, Cabaye, a few other crappy players:
have already organized transfers in:
Javi Martinez - Athletic £14m
Phil Jones - Blackburn £16m (1st time buying him)
Renan - Porto (brought him from Avai 1st season, favourite keeper) £9.25m
trying to get Bakambu who I got for Porto, but he is not interested at the moment..
Porto lost their 1st 3 games of the season after I left ;(
I have won 2 and drawn 1 since joining City...
cost me £2m to terminate the Assistant Managers contract
haahaha! I noticed how players/agents try and Rape City when it comes to contracts, Renan was asking for like 40k a week and he is currently on 6.5k at my old Porto team! Martinez wanted 88k, negotiated to 60k and a £3 million signing on fee!
anyway, I have saved both saves as I wanted a little bit of a challenge to get City top 2 and win some things then will probably be off to Spain or Italy....
