The 606v2 Euro Division

First topic message reminder :

Domestic transfers are now available!


Welcome to the 606v2 Euro Division

Where this will be different to the existing leagues is that the sides involved are entirely made up.
You don't inherit a pre-made European side.

Instead you make your own.
You would initially start with £150m with which to buy a MINIMUM of 15 players and a MAXIMUM of 23 players.
The prices for these players are determined entirely through the transfermarkt website.

http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/

But here's where it gets interesting...the prices that are used on transfermarkt are the minimum you can bid, because other people in the league may also want the same person, so do you risk bidding the flat fee or do you bid more (increased bids have to be a minimum £500k more), the other point of note at this stage is that the maximum value player you can bid on is £15m (though you can choose to bid more than the £15m to get the player)

You then get an ADDITIONAL £50m with which to purchase upto 2 STAR players (min 1), though the maximum you can spend on 1 player is £35m.
This will then result in you having a team of a minimum of 16 players and maximum of 25 players.
You then have to name the team, give it a location where they play their home games and send this via PM to myself and Sodhat before the cut off point (to be decided).
Results of who got which player will then be announced and for those that lost out on players due to being outbid, a second chance is available to acquire players before the league starts, and third etc if needed.

Number of leagues is dependent upon how many players participate.

Foreign transfers.
As the only deciding factor for selling a player is cash then there shouldn't be wrangles over if a TP is accepted or not, if you have the cash you can buy!
TPs though will only go through once a week on a Sunday night for the week ahead.
Max transfer value for bringing in a player from foreign transfers is £15m in Season 1.
You can only make 2 foreign transfers per week.

Domestic transfers
Players can move only twice between domestic clubs per season, once they have moved twice you will have to wait until the following season to sell to another domestic club.
They can though be released or sold to an outside club.

For anyone that joins the league after it begins then the following rule applies for the first two weeks:
Transfers between 2 domestic clubs must be within 20% of each other in total monetary value. So for example if Team A wish to buy a player from Team B worth £10m then they must offer between £8-£12m in player/cash value.
Note that once 2 weeks have passed then the manager is allowed to but and sell as they please but this rule is in place to combat the usual bombardment of silly offers that litter the new managers page.

Injuries
Injuries shall be announced once per week on a Sunday night, they shall consist of 2 players, one based from the team picked for the previous weeks game and one from the entire squad.

Tactics

Each week you shall play 1 game, either league or cup (no more than one game per week though), tactics for this game shall consist of a team sheet, injuries for your team, if your team is home or away and a maximum of 15 bullet point lines worth of team instructions.
As well as the tactical instructions you are allowed 2 extra lines of a team talk to motivate your players, show your worth not just for tactics but how you build players up for the game!

Cash

Each week you receive 2m for a win, 1m for a draw, zilch for a loss.
You also receive an extra £2m per week for ensuring your tactics are handed in on time and you've voted on the results.
Each week there shall be a £1m cash bonus to the team voted best tactics.

Hopefully this is enough to entice to sign up! If you have any further questions then please do not hesitate to ask and I look forward to seeing your team sheets!

Cheers. Biabiany wasn't eligible for the FFA because he kept moving around Italy and out on loan, has been playing all season on loan at Parma though and probably back at Sampdoria next season, although who knows where he'll end up!

Tbh i prefer Di natale over Cardozo Di Natale quality forward

Last one better afro but i like di natale but out of that it would be marin he would replace, good choices tho

I have de bruyne, mertens and cuenca for wings, so not sure all having good seasons

Holt - Sturridge

Subs: Speroni, Williams, Adam, McClean, Sigurdsson, Graham, Wilbraham

I wouldn't say you're screwed, but it might be worth exploring alternative formations, 4-4-2 is open to being counter attacked IMO, 4-2-3-1 is often used but plenty of variations to have a look at. You've got some very good players, and Grant Holt

Thanks Nando. I like Cardozo a lot too though. Pace and power, and great in the air.

Most pleased with getting Kroos so cheapily. After the Euros, he will be worth a lot more

Sturridge-chamberlin-pilkington
Holt

Would be better ?

I'm thinking of going for the old diamond formation tbh.
I have a secret weapon lurking on the bench who can come on for Holt

Thoughts on my team now then?

Dunno lets see it then

ill have to post it up a bit later then

I've got you first Bull I think.
What do you think to me team?

How about playing Sanchez in a more central role afro. He is really good at beating the offside trap and is one of the fastest players around.

Sanchez-di natale-T.Kroos

Cuenca
Mertens
De bruyne

2 from 3????

Mine at the mo...

Subs
Krul
Santon
Samuel
Henriksen
Chadli
Nathan Dyer
El Shaarawy

Just need a RB

Doo you not have Nene?

Yes can choose between him and Ronadinho, both playing extremely well at present

Possible

Am really undecided

Would play nene ahead of bugs mate imo he is playing well at a higher level

True, but Ronaldinho is a household name so appeals more to the masses

Well i for one would rate nene ahead of him

Now

2

De bruyne, cuenca, lodeiro, mertens

Afro, looks like you have got Vasilis Torosidis as I have no cash to re-bid and cant use my star player money.

Can we do domestics now?
As we can use star player budget for starting budgets I have a total of £22m available.

Who has a RB for sale?

Yes domestics are now available!!!!

About 6m to spend on a am will be looking tomorrow at options should get a decent one for that

Wheeeeyyyyyy

first domestic bid was for one of my players

Transfers between 2 domestic clubs must be within 20% of each other in total monetary value. So for example if Team A wish to buy a player from Team B worth £10m then they must offer between £8-£12m in player/cash value.

Can we not offer more than the 20%? otherwise it will be difficult to sign someone without the cash incentive available.

I now know exactly who am going for just make sure he not in league

Yes you can, it's only if someone new joins the league that rule applies

thoughts on my team then guys?

---------- Stekelenburg----------
Abate-----Lovren----Lugano---Danilo
Turan/Giggs---Eriksen---Moutinho---Turan/Salvio
------------Berbatov-----Hernandez-------

It's Eriksen

Lugano been carp this season

Salvio right turan left imo may struggle defensively in midifel tho

why they have played there before , and Luganos not been that bad

Who owns ledley king, I won him in first draft but cherries hss him in his team

Salvio plays more right for atletico mate

Lugano is good but not very good recently, will still be rated

Would maybe try and get a more dm in there if poss and play eriksen or moutinho further forward?

You do Nay

ok fair enough thanks for the advice will think about it mate

I got shut of Lugano after his dismal performances in the FL

sors nay copyed n pasted n fprgot to take him out

Cool cheers

No worries cherries was just checking in case I missed something

?-eriksen
Salvio-moutinho-turan
Hernandez/berbatov

Bull, I reckon you need a Nigel De Jong type of player in there.

So did I, so I signed Nigel De Jong

I Hate De Jong Marky

Why?

Did he kick your favourite Man U player or something?

I think he is generally disliked tbh

what Hero said

Generally Dislike the guy

Lucky I'm not relying on him as a people person then!

What about as a defensive midfielder though? I really rate him even if he can be a nasty piece of work.

He's one of those players you'd like in your team crippling other teams but not breaking your own guys in half.

Xabi Alonso loves de Jong.

I think that's a compliment
