At the risk of opening up a whole can of worms, I do feel sorry for Gaz and Andy in these types of scenarios. Managers like myself, Ben, Phil, Rob etc have a pool of about 200 players to barter with whereas they have only a fraction of that just because they can’t afford/don’t want to manage more clubs. 

We’ve just had a discussion about making the game a more level playing field in terms of cost when talking about friendlies? 

Thoughts?

Never really thought of being at a disadvantage just having 1 club.
In fact, I like the 'intensity' of it. You either have a good week or a bad week I suppose.
No 'well that team lost but these 2 teams won so not so bad'.
There's definitely less of a 'pool' of players and I have to be careful about players coming in and going out, but again, that gives my decisions more weight.
Can't be much of a disadvantage - current CL champ!

Very true, currently the best side in the game so hasn’t effected you too badly. Tighter ship means more diligent decision making I guess. Makes your achievements even more impressive to be fair.

Best team in the game and have been for a while. What I’d like Barca to aim for.

That's very generous, but I look at the depth of Charlton (only allowed English playing players - that's a biggy!) and Barca and Real, and there's plenty of players that would improve my 1st team. Not forgetting Watford, Plymouth and plenty more.

It's a testament to the game (and therefore Paul) that there is no 1 team that dominates - thus perpetuating the longevity of the game!

Email turns all sent out. Thanks for your company again this week it was very enjoyable as usual. Any issues let me know and I'll sort them...

Cheers Paul

Thanks Paul!

Hi Paul, Villa, Lazio and Lille have all signed a player I didn't bid for and there is no mention of the NEW's I entered for Lazio and Lille. Could you take a look, please?
Cheers
Dave

Hi Paul

My international friendlies were not played.

Same for me on international games.

I also tried to new a youth player at Rennes but got no feedback.

Thanks Paul.

Same for me unfortunately on both accounts.  No International match reports and a NEW didn't seem to go through?

Three actually, one Nantes, one Wolfsburg and one Fluminense.

Can I ask a question about superstar status as well if anyone knows?

How many superstars are in the game?  What constitutes a superstar?
Is there a way of telling if a player (your own or another) is a superstar?

Thanks

Not sure "how many" there is;

But if you use SCOUT;


Alvaro ordizola i believe is Superstar with a {4}, i think International is a {3}

But I could be wrong 

Not sure what the Perk of a superstar is?

Thanks Phil, never noticed that column before on a scout report!! I have one this turn and some players are a 6.  I assume every player has a value 0-6 but still unsure what it means!

6 is a superstar!

I did that to find out!

I'll have a look at those individual issues and sort them now. Seems we have found a few issues with the new International friendly system as well and I will sort them today then resend everything.

Hi Dave, 

The extra players at Villa and Lazio have been transferred to the correct clubs, dont know what happened there, but it was probably my poor typing. Couldn't see who Lille had signed though, can you clue me in to who it was, thanks.

As far as I can see your feedback includes reports on your NEW attempts at Lazio and Lille, you even signed one of your NEWs at Lille, so if you can check your feedback carefully they should be there.

Paul

Also had a few wage rises at all clubs by contract manager but it now says poor wage next them

Star status is an easy one :-

0 = no star status
1 = future star
2 = international of some reknown =  ie someone Ive seen and heard of
4= star = well known regular international for a major nation usually
6= superstar = international star players

these values are used to control your managerial ratings as well as defining how difficult it is to manage a player, for instance superstars will always be attitude 1s no matter what you pay them.

current player database = 29,694 players
star 1 = 3,476
star 2 = 2,047
star 4 = 1,260
star 6 = 1,178 = 4% of the player database are superstars and alot of these are retired.

I've processed your missing NEW at Rennes.

I couldnt find a new dealing at Nantes on the order sheet.

Processed your missing NEW at Wolfsburg.
Processed your missing NEW at Nantes after reviewing your private message.

more to follow...

Fluminense order sheet asks to new Julio Neto but your private message asks to change that to a new for Joao Gomes, which I seem to have done and Fluminese have recieved feedback on an attempt to sigh Joao Gomes, so that looks okay from my end ? Or did I misunderstand what you were after ? Let me know, thanks.
