Mine I think was Juli, an AMR/ST from Ejido. Just decent finishing and mental stats, nothing big there, but very fast and good balance, which is what I wanted: a fast runner who could be able to drible and didn't suck at getting goals.

And yes, he was fast but when he was close to get the need to dribble he pushed the ball too far and into the feet of opposition, hence never managing to drible anyone. Also, fans were disappointed with his signing. Oddly enough his sign confidence bar vanished just before the match when he scored his first goal for my team and started to work well. Though for then it was a new season and with new transfer budget I had other fast runners for his position that didn't have his weakness in the air so in the end he was left to cover for injuries, until at the end I sold him. At least I didn't lose, bought him by a million and sold it by a little more.
 
Vuckevic for my Arsenal squad, bought him for about 15m, he played a few games for me and was terrible. I don't even know why I bought him, was just an impulse buy really, so I sold him 6 months later to R. Madrid for 20m :D

yh he didnt do anything with me so i put him in the second team cuz he wouldnt sell
 
got hamsik for liverpool paid 17 million and ge got 13 red cards in 33 games and an av rateing of 6.23


Is that true or are you just joking???

Screenshot if you're still in that season.
 
I didnt buy him but when i was playing with barca it was eto'o i just couldnt get him to score scored about 5 goals all season, finished second in the league because i didnt have striker who could score (all my goals came from messi, iniesta and matias fernandez) luckly managed to ship him off to liverpool for 20m a bit lucky seeing as he was only valued at 7m at the end of the season.

To replace him i bought Aguero who was almost as bad for me payed 45m for him he was on fire last seaon but i just couldnt get him to perform either played terrible all season kept him though. (im too proud to sell him on a bit like fergie with berbatov)

i wish i had just played bojan from the begining hes on fire at the moment.
 
Half way through my 1st season with Liverpool, I decided that Torres really needed some support as we weren't scoring enough goals. Had the best defence, but it was only really Torres and Gerrard scoring. I had got Benjani on loan and signed Henri Camara on a free (Liverpool, even when selling, in season 1 have very little money). Whilst they did ok, chipping in with assists and the odd goal here and there, it was nothing consistent.

January came and was leaving, when apparently I was interested in CHINEDU OBASI of Hoffenheim and Nigeria. I hadn't declared any interest in him, but was desperate by this point. I had an offer of £9.25m accepted and was thrilled to finally have a striker that could play with Torres.
That was until he actually played! After 2 games my backroom staff advised me that I give him a prolonged rest, then when he actually played whilst having pace to get past defenders, his finishing was Blue Square Premier standard.
He only made 9 starts in half a season, had an average rating of 6.75 and only scored one goal (which was a tap in and when he was playing as a winger, not as a striker!)

I was able to sell him the following summer to Barcelona for £9.25m, however 50% of that went to Hoffenheim and I am still going to be paying them 100k per month for the next 40 months!! Oh well, lesson learnt- and for the record, my transfer policy is not normally this bad!!!!
 
quite easily it has to go to lukas podolski, bought him for my wigan team for 22 million quid, he scored 10 goals in 2 seasons before i sold him, also i signed phil jagielka for 12m and curtis davies for 20m just awful the pair of them
 
was playing FM 2009 not that long ago (of course i have FM 2010 now) and I was Man
City
.Now in my first season i said i would finish in the top half and I managed to finish 3rd

. So the board gave me a transfer budget of 150 million so as soon as i saw it i immiedently spent a massive 47 million on sergio aguero. but Aguero was plagued by injuries in his fist season but definetly on form when he played espcially towards the end of the season. The second season however was a different story. Aguero played at the 2010 world cup where he got a big injury playin for argentina. He was out for the first 3 and a have months of the season and came back, played well on his return, got injured for a month, came back played utter ****, got injured for 2 months and then he came back and had some of the worst performences ever and lost his place in the team to Ched evens
uh.gif
and yes you did read that right ched evans who, despite being not as highly rated as ageuro turned in, some excellant performances scoring 5 in 5. After all this i was wondering if aguero was actually worth 47 million i paid for him.
 
2nd season I signed Sergio Aguero with Man Utd for £52M he scored 9 goals in 39 games
 
shaun long. i bought him for plymouth for 2.2 million quid and ended up selling him for 45k to cheltenham. later on in the season, i went into debt. that's how bad a player could be. i expected him to promote us to the prem, but not to be.
 
In my 3rd Season for Arsenal, been quite lucky with transfers. the only 1 did not like was Del La Red from R. Madrid for £4m after 1 season sold back to Madrid for £8m. He had stats 6.98 and was understudy to Velsosa. Just brought J. Rodwell from Everton £15m as replacement Fingers Crossed
 
axel witsel from standard for 11.5 million

got weakest player every game for my hull side

I know the pain chased him for 2 years got him for just under 15 million and sold for 3 million 1 1/2 seasons later. I tried so hard with him but could not make it work.
 
Bought -Danijel Subotic bought him for my grimsby team for like 1m, shocking started 20 games scored 4.......Sold him for like 600k :(
 
Maruinhos. Only £4M but he was so poor.
 
Whenever i get a flop i try to hold on to them,hoping they improve,but Philip Lahm cost 20 million,then right after he became "Uneligable" for some reason,done a marlon king :/
 
Vukcevic was my worst signing. He was free and he played well, but he complained about not having enough first team football, even though I allowed him to play on the starting lineup on almost every game he's fit. He couldn't play a lot because he was injured, and he blames it on me not giving him first team football. It's annoying, and he ended up giving a transfer list request I was forced to approve.
 
my worst so far in 2010 is ochoa i knw everyone likes him and all on here but he is my back up for adler and whenever i put him between the sticks i concede atleast once cost me losses to stoke city and aston villa but well now akinfeev comming in january he is out...
 
On FM09. I signed Kevin Kuranyi from Schalke 04. I was Chelsea. He was ****. I paid £20 million for someone who rots in the reserves. At the end of that season. The board said that they were very disappointed with the signing of him. Then they said that because of this I am FIRED!
 
Kenwyne Jones. Absolute rubbish,went something like 25 games without scoring after i shelled out 12m on him,ended up selling him for 2m.
