I have 1 half decent player and that is Toivonen who would struggle to find a place at a European team in the Premier League.

Who would want to buy any of my players really? Like I said they are all crap. If this was a new season now we would probably be in a relegation battle and wouldn't get out of it.

Think you're slightly overreacting, toinoven isn't even your best player

posted on 3/6/12

Ok yeah slightly but he would be like a roll on-roll off player at a good club in the Premier League.

So who is better than him?

posted on 3/6/12

I'd say Motta and Benat both better you have Muslera, Luisao, Ruiz, Contento just from your defence who are all good players

I had Luisao in my squad when I started at Liverpool, I've been here 10 months to work and improve my squad you just have to work at it.

I've had Motta loads of times he's a good player, Benat I was going to sign but suggested to you as I have plenty in midfield

2 and half seasons to get where i am at hull mate, you are getting there

Ruiz has had a poor season imo and Luisao is getting older. Benat is at Real Betis who aren't a great eam really are they and Motta is ok but about the same level as Toivonen and Muslera isn't all that good either.

They aren't good enough though. The team just isn't good enough.

Are any of these in the league then?

Pjanic
Giovinco

Your underestimating Motta, very good player IMO, about = Toulalan

And you have a strong CB pairing

posted on 3/6/12

Ruiz has been awful this season and Luisao isn't going to last forever is he and Motta isn't as good as Toulalan.

Even so I have 3 good players. Great we will win the league!

LRF, quite frankly, it isn't helpful when you bleat about the quality of your squad, as there is nothing we can do about it.

Be persistent, willing to compromise and have realistic aims and you'll be fine. At the end of the day, it's a game and it becomes boring to keep having repetitive conversations

posted on 3/6/12

And by the way, one of the greatest arts in this game is talking up your players

Look at Fan & LSTD, they are masters of it

posted on 3/6/12

I would if they were good players. They talk up there players because they are good players and mine aren't and they won't be either. I can't do anything about it no matter how hard I try and even with Realistic aims I still won't get them and they won't do anything to my squad.

Wait till the euros, always gems to be found.....

Konoplyanka a good wee player, from ukraine

Some other unknowns could make names for themselves

posted on 3/6/12

But surprisingly I won't get them because someone else will get them or they won't join a club like Wigan because there mid-table.

Not even sure if I should be the manager of Wigan anymore.

posted on 3/6/12

Well dont be then. If your not willing to be patient and work at it and just want to moan at every little thing, don't be their manager, save the hassle because it's boring

You seriously underestimate some of your players, so what Luisao is old, Terry, Nesta, Puyol, Ferdinand all old still good players, Luisao has been class for Benfica over the last 3-4 years. Ruiz had a bad end to the season was amazing for 4-5 months one bad month doesn't mean hes bad. Motta was co sisterly one of the best CMs in Italy, been great for PSG and doing well for Italy too which is impressive looking at their midfield, Toulalan can't get into the France squad

Benat so what he's at Betis, he'll move, he got into Spain's provisional squad ahead of players like Arteta that's no mean feat, he'll get a move and like Adrian will go on to impress loads!

As for transfers in foreigns what do you expect, players aren't just going to leave big clubs to join you you have to work up, look at Hull for example, Birmingham, Wolves both done it. It requires time and patience

posted on 3/6/12

I have thought it through. I will stay as Wigan manager but I don't know what to do with my side at all.

But my squad is so crap no one will make any transfers with me for any of my players.

posted on 3/6/12

To be fair I might not try and improve my squad because all I get is

no one in your squad that is good enough
no one in your squad that is better than my own
can't see a deal sorry
or just the simple no

Maybe it's because you're going for their best players, you have to go level by level to sort it. Also think end of the season you'll be able to get higher quality as teams have a reshuffle, most people are happy with squads at this stage

posted on 3/6/12

Plus if you want to improve you have to offer what is your better players

Ie i wont want kerzhakov for giroud


Lose to gain

But the thing is I'm not happy with my squad because the players I sign from releases I will end up releasing again. I might just release Fucile and Gignac again as I don't really need them.

If I were to go level by level it would have to be somewhere new in the league if I'm honest because I have messed this team up really bad and it would need someone better than me at Sports Gaming to fix this squad as I don't have enough experience to know how to do it.

If I had a fresh start somewhere in this league I would stop moaning, get on with the league and follow your advice. I just don't think I can do that with Wigan.

I want to stay in the league because it is the best there is and I like all of you on here and the banter we have. When I meant leave Wigan I meant leave Wigan to go to another club.

Already said you need to stay there and work at it, think you look at the teams above you and then underrate your team. We will see about you changing teams at a later date maybe

posted on 3/6/12

Would a later date be end of the season perhaps?

I have worked at it and I can't do it. I don't look at the teams above. I look at my own players and I have learnt about these Foreign players and who they are and mine aren't good enough.

Swap with west ham then?

Bottom of league but at least you get Giroud lol

posted on 3/6/12

No point swapping with a team going down lol

Yeah closer to the end of the season

posted on 3/6/12

I'd rather not but thanks for the offer Fan. I'd prefer someone not in the bottom 3 really. I was thinking Norwich. I'm sure I've mentioned I wanted to join them before haven't I?

I know what kind of players will improve them and where they need improving. If I know where to improve with them and they start to climb up the table a little bit more then it will give me more confidence to keep improving them.

Were not that far off the end of the season are we?
