Big DJ has come up trumps for me. Hoping to bring in a couple of centrebacks and one or two wider players + some good 17-18 year old kids
2012/2013 season Bassong was such a gun pick up for me, missed out on a lot of players I wanted and ended up signing heaps of youngsters.
Bassong was a good signing, had a release clause in his contract though and Real Madrid came in and paid the 7.5m, I'm spewing struggling to find a good CB to replace him.
Might have a go at this, but have been hitting up the lower leagues. Brentwood Town have surged all the way up from Isthmian North into League Two. So easy to get a better squad than your rivals at that level. Signed some young Canadian chap - Le'Vere de Corbin-Org (great name) and he was five-star ability when I signed him in Isthmian North, and now I'm in League Two, he's still 4.5 stars. Shame he wants out to a bigger club... Haven't managed a Premier League team in FM for years. Should be worth a crack.
Your Corbin chap reminds me of Dale Jennings, a young winger who sought fame after reaching the dizzy heights of promotion from League 2.
Indeed. My Corbin sounds suspiciously like your Jennings. Sounds like we've had a pair of shunts to manage with their demands for higher profile footy. Dear oh dear.
