I signed Neymar as he wanted to leave Santos and sold off Young and Nani to fund his transfer.
I have Valencia, Bale, Ramirez (Southampton got relegated), Neymar.
I play with two wingers and 2 cm. Should i play Neymar in the AMR position or the AML ahead of bale?

Bale had a stunning first season for me. My top scorer in the champions league with 9 goals.

I would play Neymar upfront mate :) you can rotate him on the left and the right if you want
 
Raikan, i need to know if I can stop Rooney from leaving on a free transfer ? He was upset after a team talk then all of a sudden he refuses to sign a new contract even though he has a superb moral rating. Will he change his mind or will he just leave?. And why is my whole team so ****** sensative to a team talk, if I critisise them at all half the team get unhappy, it's stupid

hey mate..

I do not know if he will, just praise him, ask him to recommend a staff member, try and get him to like you again.. try and chat to him if the option is available and just continue to offer him contracts..

teamtalks are tricky, I do not have that many problems but if he does not want to sign before the last 6 months, you are going to have to sell him mate! make as much money off him as you can.. start offering him out about 8 weeks before the 1st Jan and see what you get, sometimes the player ends up not wanting to leave and you can take it from there.. holding thumbs
 
Hi Raikan :)

Can you give me some advice on strikers?

I have a striker with 18 finishing, 13 decisions and 13 composure and I was thinking about training him to 'Shoot with power' because I had success with a striker from FM 2012 with similiar stats, do you think this is the right approach?

I am currently using Iago Falque as a back up striker, hes a fairly decent finisher but doesn't really score many (I know hes an AMC in favoured positions but its not like I'm asking him to play like Andy Carroll :P ) I was wondering if the first touch attribute (16) had any effect on first time shots because unless hes dropping deep to help create for my inside forwards hes usually left in a crowded box and I feel it may be helpful for him to learn the first time shots PPM.

Also, What makes Iago Aspas such a good striker in my game? his stats aren't that far above average and he seems to be more of a false 9/creative striker type but hes still getting a decent amount of goals is he worth signing or has he just had a couple of decent seasons? (hes 27 now in my game) I do need my back up striker to be decent and I'm wondering if Iago Falque is just not good enough to play there Aspas more determined, has better agility, slightly more composed and better of the ball (lol don't worry answered my own question there ;) ).

hey bud,

yeah I think so mate, what size is he? what is his strength stat and height? if strong like Hulk then yes, if small like Owen, place shots rather!

first touch wont if he attempts first time shots. technique will play a more of an important role (this is not concrete at all mate, this is just my opinion, I may be wrong, if I am, please correct me :))

Not sure who that Iago Aspas is mate, post a screenshot?
 
Thanks for the advice! hes 186cm (about 6 1 feet) with 13 Strength, I think I'll let him develop a little more (I'm developing the physical stats anyway) and then train him to shoot with power.

Falque's got very decent technique (17) and composure (15) only 13 finishing but I think it'll work (hope so or he's for sale).

Iago Aspas is a decent striker (in FM anyway) won Liga top scorer in my game, don't think he'll move anyway so I'm just going to get Ongenda on loan again.
 
Hello Raikan! Mate i want to ask you about this guy Jetro Williams, i recive different opinions of him, i can buy him for 19 milion in start of my 4 season.He doesnt look impressive in PSV, I definatly need a left fullback but i also can get Martin Olsson for a very good price :) so ?
 
Hey mate,

Just two questions

1.) Who's been your favorite player so far?

2. Know any good sweepers? Would retraining a wing back or defensive mid work?
 
What club logos pack do you use? I've seen a few of your screenshots and they look pretty good :)

Thanks

Jetro is good but not worth that amount! Schennikov is much better for less

Martin is also not that great this year.. who are you managing? how much do you have, what year are you in?

1) um.. have only played with United so far mate but I would have to say Bale and Neymar
once I start playing the game with smaller teams next year after my holiday I will of course change my mind and players :)

2) no, sorry mate.. and no, I would not do that at all..

I manage OM and i`m in the beggining of the 4 season. It is too late for Schennikov he is in Porto and is very very expensive.However i buy Olsson and yes, he is not good.I also buy Dennis Aogo who is little better than Olsson.
I have round 25 milion euro to spend
