Currently i am Sheffield Wednesday in the year 2030. This is the furthest I have ever got in any champ man game! THe other ones used to stop after 2026. Anyone know when it does end? If ever?
Anyways, whats the most you have sold someone for? Mine is £88M. Well chuffed with that sale. It was one of my home grown players as well. Came through the reserves and was a great hit.
Got a player that is 81 years old on my game...
His history goes right back to 2001...

I did actually tell you so i do actually know. That isn't the most amazing trophy haul ever. Stop using text talk and remember that nursery started at 9am your highness.
I'm now in my third season as Huddersfield manager, after keeping them in the top division for two seasons and winning the league cup, things aren't going so well now. Bottom of the league after 11 games. Just discovered a decend player from South Korea though, scored a hatrick on his debut in the league cup.
I've also discovered the foolishness of putting clauses in contracts to let players go at a certain price. I signed Marcus Bent on a free, and he was my top scorer the next season. Unfortunately I put a clause in his contract saying he could leave for £5 million, but he's worth way more, and I've had to accept an offer for him. Damn.
Still in Europe though, 3rd round of EUFA cup, but have to play Man Utd, who finished 5th last season. They haven't won the league since I managed them 5 years ago. They bought a bunch of players from Leicester and Charlton. Odd.
My biggest ever selling is Figo from Real Madrid to AC Milan for 76 million.
Now that was sweet, as I didn't even like Figo as he was playing crap and had been for ages.

that was me. Chelsea supremo Ashley was highly amused at tottenhams signing of emile heskey.
Just done my best comeback ever in a champs league final...
Me vs Arsenal. Arsenal have won the premiership and champs league for the last 3 seasons running are proper quality.
Anyways, its 0-0 in the 18th minute...One of thier players is through on goal but my goalkeeper clips him in the box and gets himself a red card and gives away a penalty. BAd enough...but then, before the penalty is even taken, one of my defenders (who only came on as a sub) got sent off for pushing one of thier players over!
Mad! down to 9 men and they got a penalty.
Flippin crazy, anyway, they score that and then take two goal lead just before half time...
I say sod it...and just play a very attacking formation for the 2nd half. using 2-1-2-1-2 tactics...
And Sure enough...I somehow manage to completly dominate the 2nd half...scoring in the 53rd and 74th minute...Nothing else really happens and i keep the attacking formation...
No more goals till full time...
I've taken them to sudden death with 9 men! Again, i kept the same attacking formation and only a few chances came either way...
All the way to pens and they missed one and my sub keeper saved one! giving me the cup...flippin qiality.
Heres the screen shots as well. Had to save it :)
