Won the FA Cup 2-1 vs. Arsenal and now just going through the World Cup games before my budget is announced!

Diamond Derek has baffled me once again by puming in 33million and giving me it all as my transfer budget for january

 

I can't stop rubbing my hands together :scratchchin:

it seems to be working as long as I save every week. because of the restart I actually have signed Adriano, but Skjelbred doesn't look like he's coming, Prieto's fucked off on loan somewhere, but it looks like I'll be able to pick up Acosta afterall... swings and round-abouts.

signed Leo (cb) for 13mil after selling taylor in jan for 7mil, want to get a striker and a right back in ideally but I'm not desperate for either, 8th in the league right now

 

jonas seems to be getting really injury prone, may ship him out and bring a new MR in

2nd season over, finished 5th too!

 

My starting 11 is the exact same as what won me the Championship.

 

Llambias tried to take over the club in Feb, but was unsuccessful. It looks like we're hemmoraging money at the minute.

 

Fat Ronaldo must have been the worst signing ever. Never finished 90mins. ILeaving on a free at the end of the season, so I gave him 45 mins in my last game. He lasted 4minutes.

Lost the final, starting 11 in the end was quite different to my championship one, only a few survivors, it was usually

I need some central midfielders.

 

Appiah is picking up lots of knocks, Skjelbred is awesome, but I rely on him too much.

 

Chantome(DM) turned me down for Arsenal, Camaho(DM) won't sign for me, I've had a bid accepted for Diego, but I doubt I'll get him.

 

Any suggestions for some young, but already very good players?

I load the game up then use the Real-Time Editor to make Owen's contract expire etc.

 

Give us nowt to spend, chairman wants out, morale and rep down loads.

 

Means you can't go out and sign everyone and win the league with 120pts :icon_lol:

 

Much more fun

On the second game of my rotten run that began with a 2-2 draw to Arsenal away. It is Liverpool away, and who do I see leading the Liverpool front line? Only bloody Xisco! :|

 

Next up is Chelsea...

spent an insane amount in the summer signed, Rossi, Maxi Rodriguez, Micah Richards, Cristian Rodriguez (so both my wingers are rodriguezs) Sakho and Santon who I want to loan out.

Finally taken over by some rich guy who gave me a few quid to spend, so I bought Martinez(cm), Gassama (d l/r), Bale (dl) and Santon (dr). All of my strikers got injured and I had to play Archer and Sturridge up front as I had spent all of my money. Went on a shitty run of form.

 

I think I'm going to try and overhaul most of the team.

 

Wilshire is getting moany that he isn't playing, but his stats aren't great, and when I do play him, he never does anything of note. He won't go on loan to Cardiff(my feeder club) either. Any suggestions for what to do with him?

3rd season

 

PL : 6th

FA Cup : Semi Final

Europa : 6th Round

Carling Cup : 6th Round

 

getting far in all competitions really stretched my squad. All my strikers were injured around Feb and I had to play reserves and youth up front.

 

I changed formation from a flat 4-4-2, to an attacking diamond 4-4-2. It worked well for a bit(I did it as Jonas is my only deccent winger), but I got stuffed 6-1 off Everton in a game where I had more shots and more posession.

 

Tempted to go out and gut the team now as only about 5-6 of my starting 11 are very good.
