Hi Raikan,
I have been using your Might and Magic tactic with great success on my Southampton save, but after just missing out on the title in the last few games of the season now, due to injuries and suspensions, I've decided my squad is too small or not quite good enough.
So, I am looking for advice on where to improve.
Its June 2014 and my first team squad is this

Jovetic (T) 10 goals, 9 assists Doumbia (P) 16 goals, 5 assists
AML Antoine Griezmann, 3 goals, 10 assists. AMR Oscar 6 goals, 7 assists
Advanced playmaker Andrea Bertolacci, 3 goals, 9 assists, CM BWD defend Jucilei, 1 goal, 2 assists
LB Martin Olsson 3 assists, CB Mehdi Benatia 3 goals, 6 assists, CB Kyriakos Papadopoulos, RB Corchia
Krul in goal as he counts as HG, rotates with Ospina

Squad players
Strikers Quintero, Maicon, plus developing Niang and Carlos fierro
Wingers - Dudu, Lenny Nangis (played well in the first team at 19) Adam Lallana (HG)
Midfielders bressan and Fernando, jack cork and Zdravko Kuzmanovic
Defenders Mapou Yanga Mbiwa and Aymen Abdennour

So there you go!
I've already signed Milan Badelj and looking at Jali as midfield was my thinnest position last season
Cavani's been offered to me for 30 million and Ter Stegan for 15 million
Looking at Kjaer and Astori to replace Mbiwa and abdennour

thanks man!

you need better wingers for this mate :) and centre mids to be honest.. Kuzman is not great
 
Raikan, Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?
 
What's the best amount of coaches a team should have ? I tend to have 1 coach on attack 1 coach on defending etc..dunno if this is the best.And in the right corner the workload is always heavy should it be this way ?

Thanks, I may be able to get Mcgeady away from the clutches of Chelsea who are interested and Gaitan, although not rated by my scouts is only 6 million.
The other 2 wont come at all

Had to pay more wages to beat him off Chelsea, but I got him. Do you rate him more than Shaquiri?
His crossing and workrate stats are better

Hi CURRY, i hope Raikaan doesnt mind but i have recently managed united and i used raikaans ama-zing tactic and scored over 100 goals, and i was on holiday for the whole season so im guessing you could score even more not going on holiday :) but im sure Raikaan has his own opinion lol :)

thats a good deal :)

similar but different, play Aiden when you playing against a stronger team as his work rate etc are better and he will try harder to win the ball back!
 
Thanks Raikain for giving me the tactic and thanks Brommers for supporting it. Gives me a bit more confidence.
 
Hi Raikan, just interested to see what tactic you think would work best with PSG, the PSG squad without this summers transfers.

Thanks Raikan,
My new look sqad now looks something like this:

Jovetic\Doumbia (hope to add cavani)
AML Antoine Griezmann\Adem Ljajic
AMR Aidan\Oscar
Midfield James Rodríguez\Andrea Bertolacci\Younès Belhanda (free transfer instantly worth 6.5 mill)

Squad players
Strikers Maicon, plus developing Niang and Carlos fierro
Wingers - Dudu\Lenny Nangis\Raheem Sterling\Alex Oxide C (Yep southampton have re-signed him but only after getting 1.5 million payment!)

Midfielders Bressan\Jucilei\Paul Pogba

(Still struggling with midfield, can it be improved still more?)

Thanks
