What is the biggest/best transfer you have seen while using an MLS team??

Re: Best MLS Transfers

I started one with LA and Donovan immediately demanded a transfer. I sent him to Arsenal for 28 million. I was able to bring in Michael Ballack for 10 million.

I tried to keep it realistic. That was a signing I thought could really happen.

Re: Best MLS Transfers

Is it even worth it to start a MM with a MLS team? I wanted to try and build one up, but if its rare you get any transfers that I probably won't.

You can get transfers with an MLS Club. The best player I have been able to acquire was James Milner from Manchester City.

Having said that, I don't think it is worth it to stay on with a MLS team because of promotion/relegation, lack of tourneys, etc
There is just not enough variety. I usually use a MLS club as a stepping stone to a European club

Re: Best MLS Transfers

Strangely enough, in my first year of BAP, Donovan also ended up going to Arsenal at year's end. I forget what the transfer fee was, but it was probably around the 20 mil area...

Playing with the Crew I was able to get Sammy Ameobi from Newcastle. While not a big name now he is a huge prospect for the future. Even at 19 he walked into the MLS and was leading my team in scoring until he just went down for 3 months.

Combine that with my CM virtual pro going down for 8 weeks and my offense has gone in the tank.

How can you use your BAP player in Career Mode?

Re: Best MLS Transfers

I started a player manager and my virtual pro is already on the crew so i just let him stay there and still play with the entire squad and not limit myself to only controlling my BAP.

Its nice becuase you still get all the achievements of completing challenges when your BAP does it in game but it is much more fluid than just controlling him.

What will be interesting is when I jump to a new club, likely in the EPL, if I chose to try and grab him or watch and see how the crew manage my BAP's career.

Re: Best MLS Transfers

Where you go, your Virtual Pro will go to. You are, after all, the same person when you do a Player Manager Career Mode. If you wanted to do what you're talking about above you should have done a Manager Career Mode and picked the Crew with your VP on it.

Re: Best MLS Transfers

Can you actually play the game in manager mode or do you just manage the club?

Re: Best MLS Transfers

You can play or sim the game.

Re: Best MLS Transfers

you play games also, there's no mode where you just "manage" and don't play games, that would be Football Manager
