I tried for AJ but it was a no go...had to settle for Adu eventually and i play him as an AMF. Simone Inzaghi!!! £400,000? what an amzing deal. He scored 1 goal in 8 games but setup 7. Season ended. Finished 9th, 6 points off playoffs. If i had won 4 games in a row i would have been in 4th, that is how inconsistent my league was. From 3rd to 18th there was a 10 point gap. Just signed Jerome Thomas on a year loan. Working on Pamarot and Drury. I've missed out on Ashton who went to Sunderland, who were just relegated.

That reminds me of the Norwich game where I didn't cheat. A team who should go up, but doesn't.
My defence is a joke. Svensson is exempt, he is worldclass but Lundekvam, Powell and Cranie, after his injury, were all terrible. Higginbotham was good but over a whole season wouldn't do the job.
Top League Scorer - Cameron Jerome 23 goals
Top Assister - Freddy Adu 18 assists
Top Av. Rating - Niemi 7.68
Poorest Player - Powell (an absolute joke who cost me buckets of goals yet got ok ratings)
Best Loanee - Ben Watson (I pushed Soares on to the wing when McAnuff got injured and Watson filled the hole with a superb season, i've made his loan deal permanent)
Youth Player of the season - Walcott (if you count him as one now)
Will keep you posted.
