Big thanks to Manchester City for selling Asenjo to me. My current keeper needs some stiff competition.

No bother! He was already on level 3 concern anyway, and I have with Yoel as back up who's only 86 rated so his concerns level shouldn't be an issue.

I guess now I've made a valuable contribution to both ends of your first team after giving you Lima up front!

What club would people recommend taking over as I want the balance between a half decent squad and a bit of money in the account?

bazarakus

Sound
There aren't really many decent squads available, but Gala and Monaco have loads of cash. Some teams in Divvy3 have lots of cash too (Spiders, Leeds, Shels)

There's an old saying round are way

"You can never buy anyone in THE GOOD LEAGUE"

And like many other old sayings, it has an element of truth to it. 16 seasons in and pickens are Slim ... however in recent seasons, with the influx of managers from boards, the market has livened up and many good (if not great) players have moved teams. You still get the odd surprise tho. The long standing Chelsea manager recently jumped ship. Thiago Motta is on sale:

"Everton - £17.9M - Accepted. FC Schalke 04 - £16.2M - Accepted. Paris Saint-Germain - £11.4M - Accepted. AS Monaco - £12.0M - Accepted. "

How though have Everton been able to make the top bid? They have prob one of the top four squads in the game. Shirley teams with weaker squads are usually always able to bid more, no?

KERSPLAT!

I also just robbed Chelsea of Marco Marin and, more importantly, 91 rated Valbuena!!

I got Candreva and Boetang without opposition. That's 2 90 rated players at the peak of their powers. Mad how nobody bid for them.

Not while I'm continuously playing my reserve team!!

Although, it would be nice to win something at club level. There's a nice space on my mantle next to the World Cup trophy!

WOW! I just saw Rodrigo Lima's statistics:

15 goals (and 2 assists) in 16 appearances, putting in 7 man of the match performances. He's also onlt two behind Diego Costa in the goal scoring charts.

It certainly looks like he's enjoying life since leaving the Etihad.
