went first 15 games unbeaten and was top of the league. from then i found myself losing or drawing alot with the teams battling against relegation. i sold downing near the end of the transfer window for £19.75m. i couldn't attract top-class established players though and had to settle mainly for youngsters.

Curtis Davies cost £8.5m but was instrumental in my team's defence, my best buy.
Eddie Johnson cost about £1m and contributed double figure goals as my secondary striker, my best value buy.
Luka Modric cost around £1.5m and was often singled out by the media for quality performances.
