Updated Team: Ramsdale (83) Sanchez (90) Bernat (90) Alphonso Davies (88) James (85) Saka (82) Aouar (90) Cazorla (90) Torreira (90) Mkh (89) Grealish (88) Jimenez (90) Felix (90) Martial (90) Martinelli (82) Fati (82) Pending: Buffon (90), Bellerin (90), Kehrer (89), Haaland (88) If we get Haaland, then our strike force will be done, we're also very comfortable with our first team midfielders, but just need to make sure we get a goalkeeper, right back and potentially two centre-backs through the door before we've completed our business.

Congrats, definitely the most valuable player to get in the setup for me. Managed to get Buffon and Bellerin in the competitive bids, and have since added James Maddison to the side as well. We've just got to add two centre backs, and perhaps some cover up top and we'll have completed our side.
Completed team, we're likely to supplement this with some cheaper, low rated players, but on the whole this will be our first team squad for the season. Happy to get some talents that we think will be priceless in time and a solid team to compete from the first season. I imagine every side will be averaging 89/90 in their first teams to begin with, so this is going to be an incredibly competitive first campaign.

Still only got 2 players. I'm going to make a team full of all your rejects and win the league. Just you watch.
