Of recent years, Plymouth have been on a rise back up the football leagues after falling from the Championship down to the bottom of league 2. This season, we begin in league 1. Finishing last year in 7th place, we are predicted to finish 20th in the table. This guide will help you with the tips and transfers you need to make to stay up this season and hopefully push on for a playoff position.
Transfers Out
At the beginning of the save make sure you select early 2018/19 pre-season in the options as this will make a difference to the game. When we begin this save we will start with £85k for a transfer budget and £3.95k in wages. To increase this amount there are a few things we can do. Firstly, you'll need to go to your clauses section and you have the option to sell two clauses for Sam Gallagher and Jack Stephens. In a few days time, another clause will become available to sell for Sam Gallagher which will give you around £3 million. Alongside this, you'll see below players I have sold which I believe we don't need anymore and can replace with better players. With all this together, you will have £2.75 million as a transfer budget and £11k in wages.
Transfers In
Here is a list of players that you need to sign for your Plymouth Argyle save. These players have been carefully chosen by me to what the team needs to help them push on and reach their targets this season.
Marcelo Djaló - Marcelo adds a tremendous amount to this squad. Our defence definitely needs some improvement and he brings a lot of quality. He instantly becomes our best centre back and for £325k, he is a bargain.
Guirane N'Daw - A great ball winning midfielder on a free transfer. Only demanding about £1.5k in wages. He is at the end of his career but will be an important player for your first season. He is one of two defensive midfielders we're bringing in this season as I feel this is where we lack depth.
Karl Henry - Like Guirane N'Daw, he is at the end of his career but both players will have a big part to play in this team. Use them together and rotate them. Coming in again on a free transfer he is definitely another bargain.
Lewis Wing - Loaned in from Middlesbrough, Lewis Wing becomes your best player in the whole team. His stats are incredible and he is a quality player for any Championship team, so considering we can bring him in is an amazing signing. He will be the key to your midfield and will be a star player for the entire season.
Andre Dozzell - Dozzell is a bit more of a backup Lewis Wing. He has great potential and will be able to fill in for Wing if ever the time comes. Coming in from Ipswich on loan, only taking up £1.8k in wages.
Elliott Frear - Frear will be playing on the left wing for us this season. He will be adding a lot of ability to the left side of midfield with Graham Carey on the right wing. He has a good crossing stat on him which will be helpful for our target man striker and only costing you £230k.
Chuks Aneke - Plymouth this season are very much in need of a decent striker and with limited decent strikers available to sign with the money we have, I had to really look at the best possible strikers we could sign. You can sign Aneke from MK Dons for around £450k and will be your best Striker in the team. He will also add a lot more compared to the strikers we already have at the club. You will need to sign him if you want to succeed this season.
Overview
This save is a very interesting save as you are predicted to finish near the bottom of the table but with the release clauses, you are given so much money for this league, you can probably aim for a much higher position in table. You should find the tactics easy to manage with a variety of players being able to contribute to many different styles of play. Our financial situation is very good after all these transfers so this is a very good save for a long term ambition to which you don't have to climb up the English leagues too far.
