Rep Power: 0 | MUST sign strikers. jerome is useless, o'connor best for rotation/bench. aaritalo is quality signing even tho he's ex-vile. u can get him 4 under a mil. mauro zarate is also a great signing (plays for al sadd, valued at 12mil, i got him for 3.1m + 10% sell on) got 21 goals an 17 assists 4 me so far, just smashed in 5 in fa cup against bolton.
New gk and cb needed, specially in jan as wenger wouldnt renew djourou's loan which im gutted about, anyone else had this? signed bogdan lobont in goal from dinamo bucarest, he's averaging 7.31 for me with roma, palermo, fiorentina all interested, might sell him and try and get enyeama. other than that i signed simunic (cb), cahais (cb- great prospect), van der meyde (am rl) and gouffran (am r) on loan. sold nafti, johnno, sadler, maik taylor, vine, tebily an mcsheff with forse and danns out on loan.
best XI is
GK lobont
RB kelly
LB quedrue
CB djourou/scmitz after january
CB simunic
MC muamba (cap)
MC borja
AMR gouffran/seb
AML kapo/van der meyde
FC aaritalo
FC zarate
to be honest the researchers havent really done justice 2 the ability some of our players have shown this season. played a spanish game and italian game with english leagues selected and blues came bottom and 2nd bottom in 1st season in each one. also back room and youth are sh*te. tried to sign old fat head as my ass man but he didn't wanna no.
lets hope yeung puts his hand in his pocket by jan transfer update patch then we might have a few quid to play with instead of the pathetic 5-7 mil we got now. sullivan must make more than that off his w*nk mags in 1 week. tight git.
its all about wise investments on fm08 with blues- muamba, kapo and borja and djourou if u manage to sign them permanantly are the only players in the squad who will get us up towards a euro place. despite the champagne football i been playin this season its gonna be a long hard struggle before the champions league is heading to it's rightful home of fortress st. andrews
KRO!

Im currently on a long term Oxford game but may start again for the third time with blues, seems like its going to be a hard season, i only select avoid relegation (not attempt as avoid rather than attempt gets you 2mill more). its hard to get the players you need and for them to play together. i agree with zulu they havnt done us justice those researchers so im quite annoyed. Will keep you updated when i start.
