I want to play a game.

[Oncy]

Because im interested in what you all will do.

To play this game you will need to have Fifa 15.

So start a career in the game download latest squad (it has wilson, sinclair and branagan in it)
And construct the best squad you can with the tools available.

The only two rules are Gerrard and Johnson need to be gone. And you cant sign anyone that you KNOW we wont sign and we will arbitrate later if needs be (ie:Messi, Bale, Neymar, Ronaldo, Gotze, Muller, Iniesta etc)
You can sell whomever you like and have as few players as you want in your squad.

Post your full squad from Aug 31st (in game) on here and we'll judge whos is the best and who should replace Mr Rodgers.

 

[Fabio]

Surely every one needs to start with same settings

How lenient is the board?

 

[dantes]

In Fifa 98 Redondo was dirt cheap for some reason. I moved him to Liverpool, then renamed him to David Thompson. It took a while for me to accept that Gerrard was actually a better player in reality.

Then the stupid commentator even referred to him as Thompson, because it confused/glitched him with the Aston Villa player. It was genius, nobody would even know what I had done.

Very.

 

[Fabio]

Very.

You unrealistic bastard

I love it.

 

[Oncy]

Ive done my transfers out already.
Got 4 days till the window to make my signings.

 

[Fabio]

I'm doing mine later. Mrs getting the baby flung at her while I fuck about downstairs

Bonza

 

[6TimesaRed]

I might have a dabble at this..
Only downside

I have fifa 15 on the PC..
The PC is in the spare room..

My daughter is back from uni tomorrow 🙁

 

[Halmeister]

I do this all the time on Football Manager, except I also make the players a bit shitter because, for some reason, our players are quite highly rated. I won the league, Europa League and FA cup in my first season. No cheating.

 

[Mamma Mia]

Wait, so we only compare on 31 Aug?

 

[Fabio]

The team at the 31st August in game

 

[Fabio]

Obviously we can't do much with Milner, but my plan is to cancel origis loan spell

 

[Fabio]

Difficult, as there's players I'd like to buy, but won't be sold because in the fifa world, they've only just moved club.

Boo and a hiss

 

[Mamma Mia]

I think I'm done. Narrowly missed out on Arbeloa on loan, which makes me want to do it again, but in the spirit of the game I will submit my first attempt.

I wanted Milner for authenticity. It cost me 8m and Allen.

Out:
Gerrard, Johnson, Mignolet, Lambert, Aspas, Allen, Jones, Borini, Toure, Enrique

In:
Tevez, Shneiderlin, Milner, Lloris, Recalled: Ilori, Origi, Alberto (wish I could get Wisdom back in).


GK: Lloris, Ward
CB: Skrtel, Sakho, Lovren, Ilori, Coates
RB/RWB: Flanagan, Manquillo, McLaughlin, Sterling, Ibe
LB/LWB: Moreno, Flanagan, Sterling, Markovich, Ibe
CM/CDM: Henderson, Milner, Shneiderlin, Lucas, Can, Rossiter, Brannagan, Williams
AM: Coutinho, Lallana, Alberto, Sterling, Ibe, Markovich, Wilson
CF: Sturridge, Tevez, Origi, Yesil, Balotelli, Sterling, Ibe

Very good effort pal. Realistic. Improves us up top. Bite in midfield.
Well played.

 

[Halmeister]

I don't think that is realistic to be honest. Tevez would never come to us, and I doubt spurs would sell us Lloris. Schneiderlin perhaps, but they'd milk us for every penny and we'd end up paying over £20m for him.

 

[Oncy]

Sold: Gerrard, Johnson, Williams, Alberto, Borini, Aspas, Lucas, Allen, Coates, Lovren, Lambert, Balotelli

Bought: De Jong, Milner, Aubameyang, Montoya, Illarramendi, Inigo Martinez, Munain

Gk - Mignolet, Ward, Jones
Lb - Flanagan, Moreno, Enrique
Rb - Montoya, Manquillo, Mcglaughlin, Wisdom
Cb - Kolo, Skrtel, Illlori, Can, Inigo, Sakho
Cm - De Jong, Illarimendi, Henderson, Milner
Cam - Lallana, Coutinho
Wide - Wilson, Markovic, Munain, Ibe, Sterling
Cf - Sturridge, Origi, Aubamayang, Yesil

Tried to steer clear of stupid never gonna happen signings like Higuain and Pogba.
Quite happy with what I pulled together.
Mignolet
Moreno
Inigo
Skrtel
Montoya

DeJong
Illaramendi
Milner

Coutinho
Sturridge
Sterling

Bench - Aubamayang, Lallana, Henderson, Origi, Sakho, Jones, Munain, Markovic

Shit loads of options.

 

[Halmeister]

Saying that, my football manager save wasn't much more realistic. Got Milner in on a free, did the already confirmed outs, signed Ings on a free too, but (and this is the unrealistic bit perhaps) I threw a shit load of money at Lacazette for him to come. £30m plus. I also signed a right back called Cedric from Sporting who I have no idea about in reality. I also kept hold of Sterling which probably won't happen. I also booted out most of the backroom staff before today's news. Clearly I'm the Liverpool manager in waiting.

 

[Halmeister]

Oncy's is fairly realistic I should think.

Although, I honestly can't see us getting a main striker other than Benteke.

 

[Fabio]

I've sorted out midfield and an additional AM, struggling for a full back and striker...

Think I'm gonna end up with a relatively shit front line because no cunt wants to buy my dross

Last day of the transfer window you can swap out Balotelli.

 

[Fabio]

Gonna have to. Wanted to keep him for depth though.

Got 2 earmarked, gonna have to go in big.

That sounds quite realistic.

Only disapointed with the left backs situation, I tried to get Garbutt but the shite wouldn't allow it.
The first game was funny against Southampton at home. I'd part exchanged Gerrard for Schneiderlin and Gerrard scored after 4 minutes with a free kick at the Kop end. Still won though.

 

[Fabio]

Appears I'm the only one who's not tried to force Milner in

 

[Rosco]

City won't sell him at all to me.

[kingjulian]

Why do you need fifa to play this game though?
