Yeah , I'd keep buying young as much as possible if I was Corvino. No idea what ownership has mandated , though.
That sucks. Who would you classify as deadweight on your roster? Or is there even enough players to think that way?
Ha. Yeah. Just had a gander at the roster. Besides Mati (who I like a lot) I'm not sure anyone could be listed as dead weight. Closest would actually probably be Thereau, just due to us using a 4-2-3-1 which doesn't really suit him, imho.
Well , according to Football Manager , you guys have a ton of promising kids , maybe it'll be a good thing for them to get minutes.
Our primavera side has been among the top 5 in Italy for more than a decade now. It's always been a real priority for Corvino.
As it should be. That should be the lifeblood of any good club. Chiesa and Hagi look like studs. Is that Diahakte (sp) guy still around?
Dude is unbelievable in footie manager. I thought you guys might have made a play for N'iang , to be fair. Maybe the price was too steep.
Fair enough. I thought making a play for Gabigol might have made sense for you guys as well. Inter are giving up on this guy way too fast. Which is nothing new for Spaletti , and certainly for Inter.
I'm fine with Simeone and Babacar. As much as Babacar annoys me a lot of the time, he does tend to come through when it matters.
Forgot about Simeone. Should a nice pickup. Yeah , Babacar has all the tools... maybe this will be his year.
So, I'm sure there's some guys I'm missing but it's something like this... GK - Sportiello, Dragowski RB - Laurini, Gaspar CB - Astori, Pezzella, Hugo, Milenkovic LB - Biraghi, Olivera CB - Badelj, Veretout, Sanchez, Benassi, Mati Wingers/AMs - Eysseric, Gil Dias, Chiesa, Saponara, Zekhnini Forwards - Simeone, Babacar, Thereau, Lo Faso
Ahahah yeah Football Manager 2017. Needed some football in the sommerbreak so i started a career with Fiore (Great manager, found it out this summer). True, so much promising talents in the U21/primavera. What a chaos in the first season. All these loans etc. Diakate, Militari, Ranieri, Scalera, Maklar/Gori got integrated in the first team. And Ranieri (LB/Fullwingback) just crushes the left flank and is fixstarter in the second season like Dragovski with Satalino as Backup. Let the youngsters grow. Sidenote: Had to cancel the contract with Milic because nobody wanted to buy him ;-)
Not sure if going to Livorno with Aldo Spinelli in charge is all that good for any player. Josh Perez joins third division Livorno on loan
No Hagi ? I did a save with Fiorentina in FM16 and he was just stupid good. Barcelona made an offer for him like every 2 days. I know FM can be pretty unrealistic at times (though it's got nothing on Fifa for being crazy) , but you guys have like 4-5 absolute studs U21 , if you guys can manage to hold onto them for 3-4 years and maybe get new ownership during that time , who knows? Could be sexy.
@Hustle and Flo Shure Hagi, Diks, Toledo, Chiesa were already in the first team at the beginning. I was talking about the players from the U21 roaster. Every youngster with potential was included for the future. Anyways, it was nice to play a bit in the summerbreak but back to real football now. Can't play with a team that still has all the good veterans (incl. Berny the sneatch) we selled this summer ;-)
GK - Sportiello, Dragowski RB - Laurini, Gaspar CB - Astori, Pezzella, Hugo, Milenkovic LB - Biraghi, Olivera CM - Badelj, Veretout, Sanchez, Benassi, Mati, Cristoforo Wingers/AMs - Eysseric, Gil Dias, Chiesa, Saponara, Zekhnini, Hagi Forwards - Simeone, Babacar, Thereau, Lo Faso I forgot Cristoforo, too. This is updated then, not counting some young guys I don't expect to play much at all.
The club and Mati have mutually agreed to part ways, freeing him to move on to Necaxa. The only guy left who was originally signed during Prade's era is Badelj.
