What corner trick? :mellow:
I started a game with a newly-founded club in Serie B that had no players but £450m to spend on transfers and a high reputation. I wasn't interested in stop-gap players and couldn't get world beaters so started the season with just 21 players:
Kalac
Corradini
Chretien
Gamberini
Felipe
Zapata
Planus
Sakho (not good enough for first-team action)
[31-year-old French left-back/left-sided midfielder whose name I've forgotten and doesn't exactly set the world alight]
Pasqual
Gobbi
Miguel Veloso
Marchisio
Hamsik
Thiago (not good enough for first-team action)
Rosina
F Inzaghi (loan)
Pandev
Owen
Kiessling
I've just hit January and made further signings but only have about £100m left. Javi Martinez was the pick of them for an astounding £30m and he'll regularly replace Marchisio. I'm obviously top of Serie B but only two points clear of rampant Parma who are led by Cristiano Lucarelli and his 30 league goals in 20 games.
Owen has only scored four goals (with seven assists), Inzaghi was useless in his first three games (average rating of 6.33 with no goals) until he got his act together, Kiessling has scored at a goal per game since joining and I keep dropping Pandev back into the attacking midfield role of my 4-1-2-1-2 when Rosina is tired.
Strangely the board have given me four seasons to win Serie A but want the Coppa Italia immediately. Lost 3-2 at Fiorentina in the third round before winning 1-0 at home but I've got Juventus next :huh:
