Alot of money, so you'd need to play with one of 'the big clubs'. i bought him for Man.Utd, and he is a goal machine. doesn't seem to get injured, or really tire at all.
Also, Palacio (one of first recommended in this thread, from Boca). He plays for West Ham in the league i'm doing at the moment, and is top goal scorer in league.....goal/game.
Danny Simpson is working a treat at right-back. He was understudy to Gary Neville for better part of 2 seasons, playing the odd game, but in 3rd season he is regular starter and very solid. All sorts of teams want him, but he is only 21 and would cost a fortune to replace.

Franco Di Santo a young argentinian striker got every good attribute for a striker and is a future world class talent also not the dearest of players, the only bad thing is he isnt always in the game only if u pick the argentinian league and also a bit difficult for a work permit

My First Post! Yay!
Couldn't help but notice that you forgot the sublime Vagner Love. He's a really class act and earned his golden boot.
Name: Vagner Love
Position: FC
Starting Club: CSKA Moscow
Value: Forgot and can't be bothered to check, 'sides I bought him at the end of the 07/08 season
Bought for: Again at the end of first season, £6.5m might have had a sell-on clause involved though.
Work Permit: Not sure but probably.
He really stood out in a second season attacking line-up of Andy Carroll and Jermain Defoe. And Alan Smith but I sold him. Never buy Alan Smith.
Aston Villa FC
Is what football has done for me
Win, lose or draw
Supporting football is never a bore
So join in arms with the lads
'Cause if you don't support footie you must be mad!
Whether you really care about footie or not you should still support a club, so pick one for a laugh non-believers!
As long as it isn't Man U.
