Got gateshead promoted to the premier league :D:D

Second season in championship, I'll need a full squad redevelop though and even then I'm probably done far. Wage budget is only 190k :p
 
I randomly got given a 16mill budget so I spent 10 and converted 6 into wages so I've got about 270k a week now for the season.

I probably should have had one more championship season to consolidate but we'll see. Not optimistic!

How many points did you stay up by?

Thoughts on first season...

The Good;

  • Depay was a fantastic purchase, played 40 + games for me but have been unable to have him scoring as usual (averaged 1 goal per appearance on previous saves played in the same manner).
  • De Gea. Most clean sheets, all the defence played excellently and only conceded 20 times.

The Bad;

  • Forwards. Strikers. Van Persie (managed 12 appearances, 8 goals) was injured for the majority of the season. Rooney (17 appearances, 9 goals) was injured and generally rubbish. Falcao had his loan terminated straight away. Wilson and Kane had good seasons, but the majority of goals came from the attacking midfielders.
  • Rooney spent half the season bitching about a lack of playing time (was injured) and the other half bitching about achieving everything he could with the club.

Second season :cool:.

Transfers in;

  • Kaluba, Sunderland
  • Meli, Boca
  • Pogba, Juventus
  • Reeve, Chesterfield
  • Schneiderlin, Southampton
  • Vadalá, Boca

Total, £120 million :o.

Transfers out;

  • Herrera, Tottenham
  • Savic, Antwerp*
  • Nani, Real Madrid
  • Rooney, Napoli
  • Van Persie, Tottenham
  • Young, QPR
