Anyone who has played, how good are Real Sociedad compared to the rest of the teams in the league?

They are right up there with the best. Zaragoza are the best team in the league but on my game seem to be quite inconsistent. There are a few big names in this division apart from zaragoza eg celta, levante, murcia.

Sociedad are well capable of getting promotion and even winning the league

Good lad Vamos you should definitely give it a go mate. They are struggling in real life to get a decent run of results together and the threat of bankrupsy is hanging over the club at the moment so tough times. I'm really happy at the amount of people doing this challenge now its fantastic.

OMG you are doing it too hilton!!! Brilliant. Good luck mate certainly the signings you make will have a massive say on whether you get promoted in the first season and get them where they belong!

Yeh to fair you did need to get him. In fact i should have made it a rule that everyone should buy him! Thanks for the tip about Perico i'll take a look at him. Bye the way a good tip straight back at ya is to get a fitness coach asap. The club doesn't have one at the start and it took me ages to figure out why none of my players ever got to 100% fit.

I think you could be YNWALFC. Its funny you should say that because i was gonna ask if anyone kept him cos i'm curious to see how he does. I just sold him cos i was desperate for money and had Rivas and Alonso in the same position.

Rivas is not doing that well for me and Alonso broke his leg and is out for 6 months so he has not played a game for me yet. I sold Carlos Martinez in january and castillo the left back is not happy that he is not playing so he will probably leave as well. i will be looking for replacements for them

Sold him, 1.3mil seemed like a lot of cash.

Rivas seems good and Alonso is ok as well, so I sold Markel.

Castillo just put in a transfer request. He has only played twice and that was when Rat was away on international duty.

That is a problem with being sociedad. When the international games come up the Spanish second division do not take a break and Bravo and Rat both go away so you loose them for the game. It is even worse when you second choice goalkeeper is injured as well and you have to play a 16 year old.
