Help with liverpool

[Callis8]

I have started the game sold cole for4 million but got to pays some of his wages or he wouldn't go I have sold doni for 1.2 and brought in Craig Gordon. The board have only given me 2 mill to start with I have also brought in juanmi on loan. Trying to sell downing for 10 mil but no club will give me full amount upfront. Also do I buy butland and sell reina

Sell jonston and buy a striker.

Then its just a matter of trying to move on the rubbish on high wages (downing, henderson, carra)

Although he's older, have a look at Antonio di Natale. I was able to grab him at a bargain for 5m. He's a quality striker (despite being a little lazy when off the ball), and also has a solid determination score for tutoring. At 5m, he's a solid investment for at least two seasons.

I'm not sure how my Liverpool save is different from yours, but by dipping in to the salary budget, loaning a bunch of players out, and offloading Downing, Cole, and Doni I was able to scrounge up some decent cash to bring in some young prospects.

Between 1st window and January window I spent about 31.5 million (first season) bringing in some of the best young players I could find (and some I just wanted to sign to see how they develop with good coaching). These players were:

Serge Gamwanya (DC/DM) (22K)
Joel Pohjanpalo (AM LRC/ST) (100k)
Bard Finne (ST) (free)
Ryan Gauld (AM LR) (525k)
Sieve Schrijvers (ST) (525k)
Mason Bennett AM LRC/ST) (3.5m)
Wellington Nem (AM LRC) (3.5m)
Adryan (AMC/MC) (875k)
Oliver Schnitzler (GK) (1.5m)
Stefan Simic (DC) (525k)
Adam Webster (DC) (675k)
Marc Muniesa (D LC) (300k)
Doria (DC) (525k)
Mathias Bossaerts (DC/DM) (5m)
Branco Van den Boomen (MC/DM) (4.3m)
Moi Gomez (AMC/MC) (3m)
Bryan Rabello (AM LRC/ST) (1.3m)

Of those players, some are quality enough to play for the first team right away (like Wellignton Nem, Moi Gomez, Marc Muniesa), especially in cup games or against weaker teams. I currently have the most depth in a team I've ever played with, with other youngster like Raheem Sterling or Suso are still getting a good amount of play time and developing nicely.

don't sell henderson! he turns into a superstar!!

centre of midfield your set, defence your set, wingers aren't bad 'in the future' good idea to sell johnson purely cause you get 20mil for him, then re invest some young players and demba ba, 7 mil.

the reina situation, id say don't sell him as it might upset your teams abit and in a huge liverpool fan so I'm sentimental, if you were to sell maybe get ter stegen, over butland.

I really like zaha from palace as he's not overly expensive and pacey as ****, also redmond. only issue you'll have is they are mainly wingers and you'll have loads then.

I struggled to sell downing (and later carroll) but your best bet to loan them out with monthly fees and majority of wages paid as over their contract you'll make money.

last bit of advice, if you manage to get champions league in year 1 fernando lorente from athletic is a freebie even if you sell him after 1 year (and i wouldnt) he's worth getting. (pre contract in jan)

I managed my first season by loaning those dead woods, then I put my money on demba, wellington nem, adimilson, adryan, loaning urby emanuelson, and managed to win the league and euro cup, still i lost in FA and capital one cup... the second season is much easier because the board giving me 50 million to spend, I sold enrique for 35mil, coates 27mil, borini 40mil, shelvey 20.5 mil, allen 17.5 mil... then I got the budgets I needed to rebuild the team...

There is no way you legit sold Enrique for 35mil and Coates for 27mil second season, unless you're using a currency that's not pound sterling.

Anyway OT, the only real weak points are upfront and out wide although if you play a single striker you shouldn't have much issue at all.

You wont get the full amount upfront for Downing, you'll struggle to get half of that. Try offering him up for 4-5 upfront with another 6-7 over 24 months or so, teams tend to be more willing to accept and you can get another mil or two out of them.
Selling Johnson can give you more money to play with but you'll find it near impossible to find someone as good for cheaper and Kelly needs more time so I tend to keep him for another season or two at least.

If you can free uo the funds you should bring in Pierre Emerick Aubameyang from Saint Ettiene i think he costs around £13mil hes quick,strong,good header of the ball,can play out wide,decent finisher all round very good player also Nathan Redmond for £5.25mil from Birmingham was nothing short of fantastic on my Tottenham save as was Sergio Escudero £3.5mil from Schalke good young left back that can also play left mid,If money is tight Dani Guiza done a job for me at spurs for between £1-£2 mil John Mensah on a free could be a decent backup option to bulk up your defence
