Eights clear with four to go. Baggies did me a favour and held united to a draw while I beat Burnley 3-2. Have matches against spurs, wolves, Leeds, and stoke to finish. Leeds is already relegated, so I think we can do it.

Europa league is a lot tougher as the kids who have helped me in the league aren't registered. Might have to go to some sort of 442 to try and get my best players out on the pitch. Fully expect spurs to knock me out, but the semis are a decent finish.

Papiss has been struggling, had ten hours with no goals. He's got two in his last two, but they were scrappy and his all around game seems to be suffering

First patch is out!

[calgaryballer]

This is what my lineup looked like for the Spurs game, except Sam played and Leo, Peterson and Adryan were all ineligible

[calgaryballer]

This is a better example

[Lanteri]

That's quite absurd. lol

[Lanteri]

Also, probably gonna be on hiatus from FM for a short while myself. Just picked up PES and forgot how much more awesome it is than FIFA. My life is officially consumed by that game right now.

[calgaryballer]

Won the league with a 4-0 win over Leeds!

[calgaryballer]

Wenger just left Arsenal for Man City...

[calgaryballer]

Hodgson and 'arry retired from football

[calgaryballer]

Spurs offered me the gig. This is hte squad I'd have, along with £12 mil to add to it...

 

This is my current (champion) NUFC team

 

Thoughts? Should I stay or go?

[calgaryballer]

NUFC offered me £29 million to add to the squad...

I'll be sticking around.

[calgaryballer]

Now to turn to my squad. I think Demba Ba will be out. Just no room for him behind Pedro. Not sure about the rest of the squad. Colo is retiring, but I have depth at CB and he was hit or miss all season

[calgaryballer]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

David Luiz just broke Papiss' leg in the first game of the season. 5-6 months

[Lanteri]

Been quiet for a while...here's what I been up to.

Started a save with Malaga. Figured it'd be a nice challenge to try and dethrone the Barca/Madrid throttle on the La Liga.

Transfer wise, in January I brought in Manuel Almunia (Caballero was awful and I didn't have/want to spend a ton of money on a world class keeper just yet) for £2.5m from Arsenal, Toby Alderweireld from Ajax for £9m, Sven Bender from Dortmund for £9m, and Gonzalo Castro from Mallorca for £5.5m.

Fixture-wise, I was most proud of the fact that we beat Madrid twice, 3-1 at home, and 4-0 at the Bernabeau. We drew with Barcelona at home, and got shellacked at the Camp Nou.

We did finish 4th in the league to qualify for the Champions League Qualifying Rounds.

I ran a 4-2-3-1 counter attacking type formation, with two defensive midfielders in Toulalan and Bender.
