Derby's team now :eek:

Wiese (90)

Torosidis (89) Coloccini (89) Basa (88) Tremoulinas (89)

Topal (88) Chantoma (89)

Walcott (90) Turan (90) Barnetta (90)

Osvaldo (89)​
Mine now:

Krul (88)

Piszczek (90) Shawcross (88) Lescott (90) Nagatomo (89)

Parker (90) Lucas (90)

Varela (89) de Jong (89) Gaitan (89)

Yarmolenko (89)​

Same number of 90's, same number of 89's and same number of 88's.

It should be a very good match when we meet at the end of the season (if all of our players are fit and available).

First post was a bit outdated but it's all corrected now.

We only need 5 more managers to fill in division 3.

Colchester has almost 12M so it might be a good choice in division 3. Port Vale in division 4 also has 10M to spend and in division 5 Luton Town has almost 7M.

By the way, I am getting those chat messages but I can't see any text in them, so pm me in-game instead if it's something important (or even if it isn't).

their defence is of similar rating to your attack and vice versa.

battle of midfield this.
Yep.

And then there's Leicester City's strongest side:

Frey (90)

Rafinha (90) Godin (90) Barzagli (90) Taiwo (89)

Farfan (91) Mavuba (90) Defour (89) Mata (92)

.................... Damiao (88)

Quagliarella (90)​

And he was one of the sides in for Lucas too - tried to swap Defour for him. That is some side and they've got quite a good run in. I face them on the 5th of July.

The final piece of my first XI puzzle is on his way.
De Rossi....U bashtard :( was gonna move for him once a transfer ban lifted on some of my players.

Also I see Barca bid 57mill for Messi. Will Z accept and go muppet mode???

As soon as the transfer ban expired I put in a bid and the bids were accepted pretty quickly (around 4-5pm) which was nice. There's still a few good alternatives out there but Lucas was the first up for grabs.

I know, the whole thing was settled in record time.

Do you reckon he may get a ratings decrease since he missed practically an entire season? Or is that not how it works?

Gives me a midfield trio of Xavi, De Rossi and Nasri.

Varies a bit, but it seems they tend to be slower on the trigger in decreasing someone for injury then they do for poor form.

They don't tend to decrease absent or injured players.

Okay. Lets.
Yes, Lets...

Like I'm going to disclose my transfer dealings...Blackburn up next, who's their manager?

I'm looking to at least get some point son the board in the next 10 games...if I can climb out of the bottom position, I'll be well happy...

Why not?
I am managing Darlington who are in 3.2m debt.
Atleast PM me your shortlist, so i can use them in the other league.

A Manager of 293 rep ppoints surely must have some delicious players in mind.

From the international scene, Mr Anderson's Spanish side didn't play, but Switzerland's scoreless draw against Georgia was enough to see Spain through to qualification.

gaz1185's Brazil are keeping things uncomfortable close. After drawing 2-2 with Morocco, they're sitting on 10 points with two matches remaining, while Macedonia and Morocco, who both hope to upset one of football's top nations, have 13 and 12 points respectively with one match to go, neither against Brazil, nor each other.

Adam118's Germany all but qualified with a 3-0 win against South Korea. The Koreans need to win two games and make up 9 goals difference just to draw level.

Maniak's Portugal lost rather embarrassingly three-nil to Peru, but they're still in pole position to qualify, needing just one win in their last two matches.

Xipro's didn't play today, but the Chilean players figured it was probably just as well, as Italy and Montenegro have wrapped up qualification out of this group.

Urbanned's Dutch side needed a win against Hungary to wrap up qualification, but they didn't get it, drawing one-all. They've got 13 points, with one match against the United States remaining, while USA and Hungary (on 14 and 11 points, respectively,) have two matches left.

With Rooney absent to injury, goals from Gerrard and Young in the final 20 minutes of the game brought England back from behind to beat a game Jamaican side 2-1, securing qualification for the 2012 World Cup.

Big Red's Ireland were off today. They're currently top of their group, meaning it'll be interesting to see how they manage to lose this one.
