Well, it's been good times for the Tractor Boys' supporters, seeing their team under me, mighty OJ, being in the top 2 for all the season and now, as we go to February being in the top spot with 1 point more than the mighty (in Div 1 atleast) Charlton, after beating them just a week ago 4-0 after a whopping display that didn't leave it unclear to anybody in the Stadium who are the number 1 team in the Nationwide Division at the moment.
I'm really collecting the fruits after last year's and also this year's team building and buying lot's of new faces and getting rid of the old ones. My striking duo of Sebastien Abreu and Alvaro couldn't be much better, If if remember correctly Alvaro has 23 league goals at the moment and Abreu 21, and they are in the number 1 and 2 spots in the scoring chart. On to my midfield, it consists of Matthew Etherington and Darren Ambrose on the wings and usually Paul Ince as the captain and Alex Farnerud in the centre. I've only had Ambrose and Etherington on loan for a few months but even during that time they have lifted my level of play to new hights. Simply put, Etherington is unstoppable in the left wing, he scores almost for fun and gets loads of assists and Ambrose has assisted a few also and played good. Only problem with Etherington is his low stamina, so I have to take him to the bench in every game butthat isn't a big problem anymore as I got the skilled Magne Hoseth on free in January, so he can fill Etherington's boots. Paul Ince, who I got last season for free from Wolves has still kept his place in the starting eleven with his undeniable leader skills, I believe his attitude and experience is still important for my team and he leads my team to the EPL. After he has done that, he can start planning retirement days.
So, on to my defence. Jay McEveley is the left back and Karl Corneliusson is the right back and McEveley especially is doing a great job, he's gotten quite a few MOM awards and he's really starting to show his vast potential and I can't even describe how pleased I was to get him in the 2M pound sale of Marcus Bent to Blackburn in the start of the season. My two centre backs are Jolean Lescott, a bargain buy from Wolves in the first season (Thank you very much, Moncs
) and my biggest buy, Matei Mirel Radoi, whom I bought for 2.2M pounds. From those two, Lescott has been the more dominating one and with him and McEveley in my defence I have two great guys for a long time hopefully. Also Radoi is still very young, so he has time to develop even better. Finally my goalie, Andreas Isaksson. I could not get a much better guy in between the posts as him, so all but praises to him and I believe that even in the EPL he would be one of the best goalies.
So that's my team and, oh, did I mention I have not lost in the league for something like 24 games! :eek: That's right, I'm the best

He's now 18 and made his first improvements on his attributes and i can already see his future as a CLASS player (once again) with manymany caps/goals. 
) Sold Ifill to the hammers for 1.5M € and Steven Reid may also be leaving, have had some offers of 2.5M € but i'm gonna be greedy. But the bottom line is i need a promotion this year really bad or the **** is gonna hit the fan. still 9 points to 2nd place with 29 matches played, it ain't impossible but it'll be difficult. We'll see how thing develop in tomorrows session.
