Ouch!! Must of stung a little!! i hate buying players lol i have the small team mentality. Don't like paying for people lol so that would of killed me i think!!
It is the one and only time I have ever taken a big loss on a player. I usually do not spend so much on one player but this was a recommendation and a first at that. Note to self, stick to buying without taking advise again. Typically his average match rating is just as high as it was before I bought him.
I try and always go with my instinct!! Its not always right but at least i can't blame anyone else for my mistakes!! It's a shame really cause i really like Markus Henriksen!! lol
It might just be a case he didn't fit into my team's tactics. I gave the guy 2-3 seasons to fit in but it didn't work out.
Fair enough mate, i wouldn't of given him that long but i suppose when you pay that amount for a guy you kinda need to bear with him.

This has now changed, rattled through a season really quickly yesterday; guiding them to 5th ahead of Man Utd and one point behind CL place Chelsea! Annoying.
Srtill, have bought in Isco, Samir Nasri, Pedro, Allen and a couple of regens. Lennon, Anita (25M!), Jorgenson and Vorsah all gone
Playing as Liverpool and am in the 15/16 season.
The tactic i use is a 4-3-3 or would it be called 4-2-3-1. Not too sure what defines either.
GK: ter Stegen, Courtois
RB: Debuchy, Kelly
CB: Dede, Zouma (covering)
CB: Sakho, Coates, Willson (stopper)
LB: Alex Sandro, Jethro Willems, Danny Wilson
CM: Ayew, Shelvey (BBM)
CM: Lucas Leiva, Allen (DLP/defend)
AMR: Yarmolenko, Gaitan, Sterling
AMC: Isco, Wellington Nem, Gerrard (AM/support)
AML: Schurrle, Hoilett, Sterling
ST: Rodrigo, Ferreyra, Ademilson (Complete Forward)
Been doing pretty well. Won league 2 times, champions league 2 times and other cups as well couple of times.

I just finished my first season with Arsenal. I'd only played the Beta game and decided around Christmas to give the proper version a real go. I'm not entirely happy with it but I guess it's been interesting enough to keep at it. I use 4-2-1-3, 4-1-2-2-1 or 4-4-2 depending on the opposition and current players available.
2013 / 2014 -
GK: Szczesny, Ospina (2.4m), Butland (4m)
RB: Sagna, Jenkinson
LB: Gibbs, Forren (6m)
CB: Koscielny, Vermaelen, Varane (+12m), Mertersacker
CM: Wilshere, Fellaini (22m), Pogba (10.8m), Ramsey, Arteta
AMC: Cazorla, Rosicky
AMR: Walcott, Zaha (7m)
AML: Oxlade-Chamberlain, Podolski
ST: Giroud, Jovetic (10m), Depay (11.5m)
Won the Champions League in my first season and finished 3rd in the league in my first season. I aim to sell Mertersacker, Podolski and Sagna after my 2nd season and re-invest.
I figured I'd list some of my youth on loan or in reserves: Kenny Tete, Sergi Samper, Zakaria Bakkali, Mason Bennett, Luke Shaw, Dennis Praet, Anthony Limbombe, Joel Pohjanpalo, Serge Gnabry, Chuba Akpom and a few regens!
Forgot to mention that everyone except Cazorla (who is on 120k) is under 100k p/w and I'm sticking to the specific wage structure and traditions of Arsenal for the most part (hoping to push it up to max 150k for my best player when Cazorla, Arteta, etc leave).
