Barcelona have offered us 21.5 million for James McFadden today. McFadden is getting older and has had injuries this year, but he is still my 3rd best striker. I counter with 50 million. If they want to offer that much, I'll let him go.

Covelo has been sacked by Valencia.

Chelsea have paid 5 million for Jordi, a good young right fullback who was with Deportivo.

Today we host Arsenal in an EPL Match. They are in 8th place, but I'm not taking them lightly. I'll be using my top lineup today (despite just playing 4 days ago, I won't increase my chances of losing to Arsenal of all teams.) Arsenal is led by the dynamic scoring of Lukas Podolski who has 10 goals on the year. Midfielder Mario is playing great. Left winger Jose Antonio Reyes is still excellent at the age of 29. Salomon Kalou is a good right winger. Joseph Yobo is a good centreback, however, he might struggle as Ashley Cole is injured and the rest of his fellow defenders haven't been playing well. Manuel Almunia is still the primary keeper, but he is starting to fade in skill.

We are 5-4 favorites.

It's raining with temperatures in the 40's.

1st minute mark: Reyes with a long range shot that Howard barely punches over the bar.

23 minute mark: Reyes is called for being offside.. Yobo argues the call.. yellow card for Yobo.

27 minute mark: Kalou trips Downing.. he gets away with a warning.

28 minute mark: Downing passes to Rooney in the left side of the box.. he draws a defender and the keeper.. passes to Adriano.. open net.. Adriano shoots.. Yobo blocks the shot saving a goal!

36 m inute mark: Schreurs dribbles past two defenders into the box.. Biasi trips him! Penalty awarded! Rooney steps up.. blasts it into teh upper right corner.. the keeper dove, but it was past him! GOAL!!!! 1-0.


Halftime: 1-0 lead for us. WE have over 91,000 fans here today.


60 minute mark: Adriano is having a totally listless game. I'm yanking him (and might warn him as well.) I put King in at striker for Adriano.

64 minute mark: Reyes gets a yellow card for tripping Schreurs.

74 minute mark: I put Mamam in for Djemba and Salva for Ferdinand.

77 minute mark: Downing throws it into the box to Mamam who heads it to Schreurs in the left side of the box.. he shoots.. hard shot.. it hits the crossbar.

83 minute mark: Schreurs passes it to Adriano in the right side of the box.. he crosses it to Rooney who shoots.. upper left corner.. great save by the keeper.

87 minute mark: Mamam passes it to Rooney who tries one of his trademark 30 yards banana shots.. the keeper dives.. blocks it.

89 minute mark: Good defensive play by Salva.

90 minute mark: Long pass from Mario to Reyes in the box.. he fakes out Salva.. he shoots.. lower left corner.. GOAL! 1-1. Darn, maybe I should have put Salva in for Ferdinand.

91 minute mark: Downing crosses to Rooney who heads it.. the keeper blocks it.

92 minute mark: Downing beats two defenders.. crosses to Schreurs who heads it.. the keeper blocks it.


Game over. Disappointing 1-1 tie.

We outshot them 18-8 (6-2 on target)

Their keeper, Almunia, won MoM.

Adriano did nothing this game and had a 4 for form. I'm going to warn him about lackluster play.

Today we travel to play Fulham. Fulham is currently 7th in the EPL while we are in 2nd (we fell there after our tie against Arsenal.) Fulham is led by the continued top notch play of midfielder Thomas Hitzlsperger. Left fullback/centreback Carlos Bocanegra is having his best season of his career. Striker collins John leads the team with 10 goals. Centreback Enrico Gaede is having a good year. Keeper Michael Rensing has been inconsistent, he has either been brilliant or bad.

We are 4-6 favorites.

Oh crap! Adraino skipped training today. I'm going to warn him about unprofessional behavior. If that doesn't work, and he skips again he will be fined a week's wages.

Adriano accepted his wanring and noted that his unprofessional behaviour in unacceptable and that he deserved a warning. He has indicated a willingness to improve his behaviour in the future.

Alan Smith was selected to the EPL Team of the Week.


Speculation is heating up in the media regarding Eagles' transfer. I tell the media that we will sell him at the right price.

In particular, Liam Ridgewell is playing great.

Today we travel to play against Everton. Everton is currently shocking everyone and is 3rd in the EPL! We are currently in 2nd. Everton is thriving behind a diversified offense and a solid defense. Left winger Andy Reid is having a great year. Centrebacks Anthony Gardner and Sean Brady have shut down many very good strikers. Right winger, Aaron Lennon has played veyr well. Mauro Di Mauro and Scott McDonald have been very good strikers this year. Ceiran Hutcheson has had a very good year in goal.

We are 4-6 favorites.

Hehe

Adriano is no longer unhappy and he is no longer upset about me treating him unfairly from the 1st warning, so I think he'll be alright now...

16 minute mark: Di Mauro fakes out Schmidt.. dribbles into the box.. shoots.. upper right corner.. Howard tips it.. it's past him.. GOAL. Down 2-0. Darn, perhaps I shouldn't have started some of the young kids against this good team.. but my first team is tired from playing 3 days ago.

Today we host Middlesbrough in an EPL Match. We are currently 2nd (falling further and further behind Liverpool though) and Middlesbrough is 18th. Their offense has been below average and their defense has been horrible. Porcellis is their leading scorer with 6 goals. midfielder Johnu Alejandro Acosta has 5 goals and can set up his teammates. Jan Lastuvka is a good keeper, but he has been peppered with shots. He is becoming unhappy and faltering in his play. Chris Riggott is a good centreback, but his teammates have had a horrible year.

We are 4-7 favorites.

What's the league table look like now?

Inter has offered 27.4 million for Christopher Eagles (6.9 million up front and 20.5 million in monthly installments over 2 years.) I'm happy to accept this offer. Hopefully, I don't end up regretting it in the future.

Christopher Eagles suffered a groin strain in practice today and will miss about 2 weeks.

Lazio has offer 27.4 million (1.9 up front and 25.5 over 24 months) plus Danny Cox for Christopher Eagles.

I accept the offer.



Today we play Sunderland on the road in the 3rd round of the FA Cup. Sunderland is currently 1st in the English Championship. They are led by a dynamic duo of strikers in Marco Streller and Danko Lazovic who each have 13 goals. Right winger Steven Reid has pitched inanother 8 goals and all around stellar play. Left fullback Julio Arca is a good defender. Luca Brunoni is a good keeper.

We are 4-7 favorites.

It's raining with temperatures in the 40's.

Carlos Godoy will get his first start due to Eagles' injury.

1st minute: Godoy has already been very active, but his crosses keep getting intercepted in the box.. however he is looking very active early.

2 minute mark: Long pass from the keeper to Lazovic on the counter attack.. Lazovic dribbles into the box.. shoots.. upper right corner.. Howard dives.. it's past him. GOAL. Down 1-0.

12 minute mark: Godoy is tripped by Arca.. yellow card on Arca.

35 minute mark: Cook gets a yellow card for a trip on Lopo.


Halftime: Down 1-0 They have over 48,000 fans here today.


65 minute mark: Alfonso gets a throw in from Schmidt.. he crosses it to Smith in the box.. he shoots.. upper left corner.. the keeper dives.. it's past him! GOAL!!!! 1-1.

71 minute mark: Schmidt with a few good defensive plays.

74 minute mark: Eremenko takes the corner.. to the near post.. Lazovic outjumps our defenders.. heads it.. into the upper right corner.. GOAL. Down 2-1.

75 minute mark: I put Ortega on for Stevanovic who looks listless, Mamam on for Cook who is tired, and King on for McFadden who is tired.

80 minute mark: Alfonso trips Reid.. Reid is hurt.. Alfonso is lucky that he didn't get his second yellow card.

88 minute mark: Godoy with a great cross.. Smith heads it.. over the bar.

93 minute mark: WHAT THE F!#$ Howard saves the ball left of goal.. he throws it to Marchetti on his right except he actually throws it backwards into his own goal!!! You Du!@$!#$ Howard. Down 3-1.


Game over. 3-1 loss. The ref killed us this game, but we let ourselves be outworked Very disappointing.

We were given 7 yellow cards. They were given 3.

Danko Lazovic won MoM, 9 for form, 31 of 33 passes, 1 of 2 tackles, 1 of 6 headers, 1 interception 4 fouls drawn, and 2 goals.

Liverpool has offered 27.5 million for Christopher Eagles. I counter with 50 million. It would take that much for me to sell him to a rival.

Richard Money has been hired at West Bromwich Albion. They are currently 8th in the EPL. I hope that jerk doesn't make it back to the EPL.

Liverpool have sold top youngster Jordi to Atletico de Madrid for 25.5 million. Liverpool fans are livid at the sale of their favorite youngster.


Chelsea have offered 25 million plus John Hall (a good young left winger who starred in my most recent U21 England match) for Eagles. I counter by asking for a straight up trade for Freddy Adu.

I still can't believe we blew the quadruple so early in the season. Today we host Everton in the first leg of the English League Cup Semi-Final. We still have a shot at the treble, and I don't want to let that get by me. Everton has been surprisingly good in the EPL this year. They are 4th in the EPL and they are doing it behind a diversified offense. Strikers Nathan Ellington and Mauro Di Mauro are having a great year. Centrebacks Anthony Gardner and Sean Brady are difficult to score against. Aaron Lennon has been a very good right winger and Andy Reid hs having a great year on the left side. Ceiran Hutcheson is a good enough keeper.

They beat us earlier this year, but we will pull out the top team against them today..


We are 4-6 favorites.

It's raining with temperatures in the 50's.

3 minute mark: Downing passes to Rooney in the box.. he dribbles past a defender.. passes to Adriano.. he heads it.. the keeper blocks it.

5 minute mark: Downing crosses it long to Adriano.. he heads it.. into the upper right corner.. GOAL!!!!! 1-0.

17 minute mark: Their defender, Gardner, has just made a series of great plays on both Rooney and Adriano.

18 minute mark: Danny Hope gives Rooney a yellow card for a trip on Gardner.

33 minute mark: Rooney dribbles past two defenders on the left side of the pitch.. into the box.. he passes to Schreurs in the middle of the 6 yard box.. Schreurs hits it on the half-volley.. over the keeper's shoulder.. GOAL!!!! 2-0! (That is why I like Schreurs over Eagles - Schreurs is the better scorer and just as good at distributing or almost as good. Howver, he is a much better scorer than Eagles.)


Halftime: 2-0 lead for us. We have over 85,000 fans here today.


47 minute mark: Djemba gets a yellow card for unfairly jumping with Gardner.

50 minute mark: Schreurs passes to Fletcher outside the box.. he shoots a hard curving shot.. upper left corner.. the keeper blocks it.. Rooney pounces on the rebound.. shoots.. upper right corner.. the keeper couldn't recover in time.. GOAL!!!! 3-0.

61 minute mark: Downing with a corner kick to the near post.. Adriano jumps.. whistle.. Gardner pushed him.. Penalty awarded.. Rooney steps up.. shoots.. upper right corner.. barely over the bar!

68 minute mark: Lucio gets a yellow card for a trip on Serhat (my former player.)

75 minute mark: Marino on for Rooney, Mamam on for Djemba, and Salva on for Lucio (all guys with yellow cards.)


Game over. 3-0 win for us.

We outshot them 15-8 (8-2 on target)

Downing wins MoM, 10 for form, 10 of 15 passes, 0 tackles, 2 of 6 headers, 3 interceptions, 17 runs, 1 foul drawn, and 1 assist.

Schreurs had a 9 for form.

WOW!!! Chelsea have agreed to the one-on-one transfer of Freddy Adu for Christopher Eagles!!!! I don't see how this helps them, unless they desperately need a right winger as Adu has a MUCH higher value, but I'm jumping on it!


I never thought they would actually agree when I made this move

I just need Eagles to agree to this deal and reject all of the other deals now..

Chelsea have given me permission to contact Adu. Adu wants 100,000/week as well as a 5.6 million dollars signing bonus, 5,800/goal and 3,000/assist. The board will only allow me to offer 5.2 million as a signing bonus, but they will allow me to offer up to 240,000/week. I decide to offer him a 3 year deal with 120,000/week as a base salary.

Longtime Loyal Scout Mick Brown has retired from football effectively today. He will be missed by all of us here at Manchester United.

Today we travel to play coventry in an important EPL game. They are currently in 14th and we are in 2nd. I need our 2nd stringers to play well today and show me they are capable of beating weaker teams. Coventry is led by young striker Wayne Worthington who leads the team with 10 goals despite only starting 10 games. He has been a sub in 10 other games. Keeper Marco Tedeschi has had a great year so far. Right winger Dani has played very well. Striker Shola Ameobi remains a veteran threat to score. Martin Scott is a decent centreback who is having a rough year.


We are 4-7 favorites.

It's overcast with temperatures in the low 40's.

DL: Schmidt
DC: O'Shea (promoted ahead of Salva)

1st minute: Godoy burns his man down the right sideline.. crosses it to Smith.. he heads it.. the keeper blocks it.

8 minute mark: Marchetti with a key defensive play on Ameobi in the box.

20 minute mark: McFadden takes it down the left sideline.. crosses it to the near post.. Alfonso heads it.. barely wide left.

28 minute mark: Howard stops a series of shots.

34 minute mark: Howard stops a flurry of shots, very acrobatic play by Howard.

38 minute mark: Godoy with a long pass to McFadden.. he dribbles into the box.. shoots.. upper left corner.. the keeper dives.. blocks it.


Halftime: 0-0 tie. They have over 32,000 fans here today.


46 minute mark: O'Shea trips Amoebi in the box.. penalty awarded.. David steps up.. shoots.. to Howard's left.. he dives.. blocks it.. Ameobi gets the rebound.. shoots.. Howard catches it!

51 minute mark: Alfonso passes to Smith just outside the box.. Smith draws two defenders.. passes between them to McFadden in the box.. he shoots.. upper left corner.. GOAL!!!! 1-0.

68 minute mark: Whing passes to Williams.. Williams passes to Chaplow in the box.. he shoots a quick powerful banana shot.. it curves.. upper right corner.. GOAL. 1-1.

74 minute mark: Mamam on for Cook, and Marino on for McFadden. I also tell the team to open up the offense more.

78 minute mark: O'Shea with a long pass to Smith.. he dribbles into the box.. the defender catches him from behind.. strips the ball.. it bounces to Marino.. he shoots.. weak shot to the upper left corner.. the keeper saves it.

85 minute mark: Godoy passes it to Marino in the left side of the box.. he fakes out the keeper.. shoots.. wide left.




Game over. Yet another draw. 1-1 tie. I need to look at getting another speed striker who can burn the defense.

They outshot us 19-8 (13-5 on target)

Howard won MoM for his 12 saves, 9 for form.

O'Shea, Grygera, McFadden, and Smith all had 8's for form.

Tim Howard and John O'Shea were both selected to the EPL Team of the Week.


Adu accepted my contract offer!

Adriano and Howard were both called up for the North American Gold Cup!


DARN!!! Eagles rejected the offers from Inter, Juventus, and most importantly Chelsea! He has agreed to terms with Lazio. Do I dare back out of the deal at the last second. That is so fraught with danger. Chelsea might not agree to the deal on the second time, or Eagles might refuse to go. Also, I'm sure I'd take a professionalism hit.. Thoughts anyone?



I'm going to save the game and think about this for a while.

Even money says Chelsea won't agree to the deal the second time. For what its worth, you don't have to respond to transfer offers immediately- you can wait for others to roll in, and only accept the good ones..

Chelsea just lost Arjen Robben, their starting right winger for 3 months. I forgot to post that (it happened after they accepted the Eagles trade.) So, now they desperately need a right winger. However, I still think you are probably right and they probably won't accept the deal a second time. I agree that I should have waited a bit more before accepted a deal, but I thought 27.5 was about as good as it was going to get (he is only valued at 20 million right now.)

I thought this was freaking hilarious, the way you were tripling everyone's offers that you didn't want to deal with and then just stuck Adu in there. Then they said yes, and I almost died. Then I thought oh no, why didn't he cancel all the other offers? Then...oh man, HOW COULD YOU SCREW UP YOUR CHANCE TO GET ADU AND STICK IT RIGHT UP CHELSEA's ASS? sigh...i'm so depressed. I recommend you go back to the save game right after chelsea accepted and get it right

I'm going to try to make the Chelsea deal work. I won't go back in time to a previous save as that would be too much of a cheat to me.

I'm surprised I didn't get roasted in the press for that loss either.

Cox looks like a good, but not very good or great centreback, but he is only 20. He is on England's U21 National Pool.


Robb, I really must try to get Adu. Eagles is ANGRY at me now for canceling the Lazio deal, but I'm hopeful that I can send him to Chelsea for Adu soon *crosses fingers*
