The Kop Kid
Senior Squad
Well, here's one for the record books. Arjen Robben. I bought him from PSV for 16.25 million in 2007/2008. PSV bought him from Groningen at the start of the game for 2.8 million. He's not a regen but an 'original' it appears. I'm not selling him, but quite an offer all the same don't you think?......

Your not going to sell at a price of 100mil? He must be close to or around 30 years old in 2010. It would be tough for me to pass that up.

He's only 26. Also he's one of my top three players and is improving every year. I also still have about 30Mil left over from the Gerrard sale which I am having trouble spending as my squad needs very little improvement and the players which would improve it won't come from Roma, Milan etc. Finally I have not lost a game all season, so I'm not going to start breaking up the squad just to improve the bank balance.

Fair call. Post a screenie of your squad.

Here they are. This is for 2010 as you know. Only 3 regens so far, who are just starting to get some 1st team games.
As for my wage bill, it's a massive 5.2 million a month. I lose about 1.2 million a month but get it all back (and then some) over the year from prize money and t.v deals, not to mention the odd transfer deal.

......and this is why I am reluctant to break up my squad......
Ooh er....
Weekly wage bill: £450k a week
Wouldn't bother me if we had more revenue. Bear in mind that last year I spent something like £8.5m. This year I've only spent £4.7m. Plus the sale of David Wright went through. He buggers off to Arsenal for £5.75m.
Still can't get rid of Paul Kusch. There's interest from French clubs but they still don't seem too keen to buy the whinging tart.

You mean me or Shindig?
Who are you managing, and what year is it? Surely you should be able to cover 1.8mil a month with a decent sized stadium. I used to get in debt the whole time in my old Plymouth game. I went through three boards in five years at one point because the fools kept on letting me spend while in debt.

No, no Gomez, or as you pronounce it "GOMEZ!!!!!"
As I mentioned before for some bizarre reason he's not in my version, which is a shame judging by the screenshot of yours. I have found Samba to be a little unreliable at times (Maxim was out for three months) so another super striker would have been useful.

Southampton. Season 2009/10. Got them Promoted to the Premiership and then just avoided the drop back down.
St. Mary's is still a 40,000 all seater. No major cup runs or anything.
