Baptista

After the end of my second season, expectations were high coz the only trophies missing from the cabinet were the Community shield '2007 and Premier League 2007.In 2008 our Devils had achieved everything.But my primary objective was to bale out the club from possible financial trouble.So cost cutting was at its best.Pique was sold for $50M to Barcelona, (thrice his value).Strikers were Tevez, Rooney,Ronaldo, Fagan and Campbell and I was inclined on relying on them, when out of the Blues, Real offered me Baptista for $3Million, even when I hadn't shown any interest.So I brought the guy to OT, just for the sake of offloading him after making some handsome profit.But in his debut match I introduced him in 60th minute and he responded by thumping in 4 goals against Liverpool.And by the end of the season had banged in 30 goals in abt 35 appearances, most of them as subs.

What position do you play Baptista in?

Radoslaw Matusiak.
Playing as Birmingham in second season,he was highest scorer in the Dutch League, beating even (gasp!)Afonso Alves. So i pounced at 8 million for him and got him for Birmingham. Can you imagine? Birmingham! Paired with Kikin Fonseca, he's been more provider than scorer now, but once in a while he shows the brilliance that bagged him 18 goals in 21 games with 4 assists and 3 Man of Matches in Dutch Erividise. Simply class.

Massimo Donati
A late addition to the Birmingham squad from Celtic. He didn't come cheap, but at the price of 6 million, money well spent. He scored a curling shot on his debut, is the heart of midfield. Commanded proceedings in the middle of the park, chipping in goals sometimes.

He plays either upfront or in the hole, behind the two Forwards.
Most of the time I keep tinkering around with the Formation, especially after taking early lead.But with his physical presence he is better as the Striker.
