danielgear Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 May 2023 and end of season Update Results Table Review 7th place and semi finals of the champions league! I think the euro run took it out on my small squad but as tottenham and Man Utd won the two domestic cups I will be in the europa league Qualifying next season. Our expecations were Europa league Qualification so that was achieved, Ideally I would of liked to finished in top 4 again but we are still a small club compared to the 6 who finished above us. Aim next season is to qualify for europe again I would like to win a cup too, Usually i use fringe players but Im going to go for it next season.

danielgear Posted February 16, 2012 Author Share Posted February 16, 2012 Still a nice season overall. Will be good to see if players are more interested in joining with your fabulous run in Europe. Im quite happy with what I currently have, I havent noticed any better players wanting to join us as a result of that run, my transfer plans are to invest in youth if i spend much as I have spent quite abit in the last 2 seasons. I think there will be a bit of a cut back this summer, Even though the board have given me £30million transfer budget Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielgear Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 Liverpool Games Update for November and December Bigger update coming in the january Update as busy making moves, squad needs a massive rebuild, bigger job than I thought but I believe I can do enough to get us to end of season with a short term rebuild then in the summer look long term Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielgear Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 January Transfer Window & Results Update Plan After joining the club the playing squad was in an awful position, it was ageing there was no depth, So first thing I did was implemented my formation I had been using at Bristol City, Any player that didn't fit that was transfer listed, any player who was past it or not good enough or lacked potential was also transfer listed, I cleared the decks of the deadwood and unneeded players. this boosted my £121million transfer budget by £95.1million giving me £216million to rebuild the squad. I don't usually like doing a massive overhaul in January but we needed it and I felt if we didn't we wouldn't make Europe next season. Main priority is 2 centre backs, a Right winger a left winger and two strikers. Transfers Out Transfers In Results League Table Overview The rebuild is done until the summer, I bought in players who will ensure the quality of the first team improved and a whole range of youth. I'm hopefully the team gel fast. Two strikers were a massive priority and I spent big to bring in Osei (4goals) and Karaman (6goals) in but they have hit off straight away and form a great partnership hopefully they can continue and shoot me into Europe. I'm going all out to win the fa cup playing my strongest team possible. the aim is 3rd place in the league, Its going to be hard but if we can get a god run going we could do it. I feel I have sorted out the short term and set the foundations for the Long term with some quality youth purchases. Also I realise Bristol City are above us so it might not look like the best career move at the moment but i believe long term it will be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
