We're going with a very attacking formation for Parma in season 2. Do you guys want to see a 4-3-3 with a CAM, or a 4-1-2-1-2 with wingers? Or maybe both at different points in the season?
I've played heaps with Parma this year, and I love the 4-3-3 with them with one CAM. Try it out! You could move a CM back to make him more defensive, that helped me.

I feel the 4-3-3 might give you more control in midfield but then again having two strikers can give you a different option up front. I love wingers though and I'm using the 4-1-2-1-2 with Wycombe at the minute so I would go with that. The 4-3-3 could be useful for big games or if you need a change.
Quick Valencia update because my terrible internet failed to post the update twice and I can't be bothered to retype it for the third time. So yeah, in March we beat Sociedad 3-1, Atletico 3-0, Elche 2-1 and Deportivo 2-0. Bacca scored five goals in four games and we lead the league by five points. After all, Atleti won the league last season so why couldn't we do it now?
Unlike the first time we faced Villarreal in the Valencian derby this match up didn't prove to be that exciting. Pablo Piatti's single tap in goal in the 13th minute was enough to decide the game and instead of looking for an equaliser Villarreal decided to park the bus during the last half an hour. Strange? Yes. This game also marked Dani Parejo's comeback from his three-month injury.
Tap ins, tap ins galore. All of our goals were tap ins. Negredo put us into the lead at the San Mames with a tap in and a few minutes later Ibai Gomez equalised with a near-post shot. It then took until the 73rd minute for our second tap in goal. About fifteen minutes later Carlos Bacca finished the last goal of the game with another tap in.
Final Valencia CF - Sevilla FC
Surprisingly the Copa del Rey final was played in April this season, in the middle of league games. That didn't stop both teams from fielding their best players, though. The Santiago Bernabeu was ready for Valencia's first King's Cup final since 2008 and Sevilla's first since 2010. The atmosphere was wonderful and it was a big night for all of the players and especially for Paco Alcacer, Vincente Iborra and Carlos Bacca who were all playing against their old teams.
The game begun with Sevilla's kickoff and only few minutes later they got their first chance. The ball was crossed into the box and Paco Alcacer headed it at Miguel Moya who parried the ball. Sevilla's Stephane M'bia reacted the fastest and he put his team into the lead! Valencia then started to push for an equaliser and only four minutes later Nolito unleashed a beautiful curling strike from the edge of the box that flew into the bottom right corner. The game was equalised! Valencia then started to take control of the game and in the 23rd minute Carlos Bacca took a shot from the box but Beto saved it. Three minutes later Enzo Perez was tackled just outside the box which resulted in a free kick. The captain Dani Parejo stepped behind the ball, took a shot... and he managed to curl the ball into the bottom left corner! Valencia were in the lead!
Spoiler
The second half begun and five minutes after the starting whistle Sofiane Feghouli was played through on goal. The Algerian saw Dani Parejo to his right and passed the ball to the captain of the team who had an easy job finishing his brace. Surely it was all over now for Sevilla! But the Bats didn't end there. In the 84th minute Carlos Bacca scored from a counter attack and in stoppage time Enzo Perez scored the fifth goal of his side from a rebound. Valencia were the Copa del Rey champions!
Spoiler
FC Barcelona 0 - 0 Valencia CF
Somehow this game ended in a goalless draw. Both teams had a good amount of chances but the defenders did a very good job. Nothing else to comment.
We got a solid win from this game but at a big cost. Enzo Perez and Pablo Piatti got both injured for three and four weeks each. Perez was the one who opened the scoreline with a powerful shot into the top right corner under fifteen minutes into the first half. Dani Parejo then doubled the lead in the 73rd minute from the penalty spot and Bacca finished the third of the night with a tap in. We had 12 shots in this match.
Player of the Month
Carlos Bacca
The Colombian continued his amazing form in April with three goals in five appearances. He was again the star of Valencia's attack and there's no stopping him at the moment.
We did it, we won the Copa del Rey! Sevilla weren't a big challenge in the final and they didn't cause us problems apart from their goal. Other than that we had a good month in league play with one conceded goal in four games and with one draw against Barcelona. I think Barca have two games in hand but I'm sure that the title is ours now. I'm gutted that Perez and Piatti got injured but luckily they'll return soon.

While we were getting dominated in the first half, all we needed was a good cross by Marney and a well hit header to put us infront just before half-time. The second half didn't provide much, with the only interesting action being when Ideye scored from offside. Still, a good 3 points for us.

This game was really difficult, as we held on really well, yet Rojo punished us early, as United went really attacking and scored in the very end. Then, Carrick came on, and due to some bad play by us, Carrick got through on goal and put in the second one. Not the same kind of game from the start of the season.

Sometimes, we can play some superb football. This was not the case. We got a very lucky goal early, as a cross from Ward bounced off the crossbar, to Jutkiewicz, who passed it out to Ings and put it right past Mignolet. Liverpool were looking bad on the ball and off it, and we didn't look great either. I guess we just met them on a bad day.

League Table
My Thoughts
Fighting for the top 10 - This month went really well. The loss against ManU was a thing I did expect, yet the win against Liverpool lifted my spirits and really showed me that we can do this. WBA was a game that I did expect to get points from, yet Swansea were a really tough opponent, just like the first game of the season.
The tough games are coming - While the next month is going to be probably the toughest, since we will face Chelsea, Soton and ManCity, we have a lot of difficult games coming up. We have quite a few top 10 teams to face and a few of the lower yet tougher ones (sadly, Arsenal and Soton).
I hope you enjoyed this post, please, if you have any feedback, do let me know!
Here we go again. One month you do terribly and another month you do a great job.Well, apart from the ManU game but they are ManU, after all. You're in a very good position with a not so great team!

GFC – Poggi 86’
Grégory Pujol slips the ball through the defence for Louis Poggi who uses the last of his energy to sprint past his marker and neatly finish past the keeper with his weaker foot and it gives Gazélec the crucial goal they needed to win the game. In the eighty-eighth minute, Tours’ Xavier Chavalerin unleashes a swerving, dipping shot onto the crossbar from thirty yards out.
Le Gaz’s first goal came from David Ducourtioux in the ninth minute which he nodded past the keeper who was late off his line. The second came in the twelfth minute when Jérôme Mobris made a late sliding tackle in the box for M’Madi to put the resulting penalty away into the far right corner. Four minutes later Ali M’Madi finds space from a cross in by Kévin Mayi who can then guide the ball past the off-balance keeper and across the line. Le Havre bring one back to make it three-one with Geoffrey Malfleury as he stops on the edge of the area before toe-punting the ball through Amos Youga’s legs and off the bar before going in. One minute after the break, Mayi gets onto the end of a challenge from M’Madi and then he manages to curl the ball around the keeper and into the far left corner to make the score line four-one. In the fifty-third minute, Malfleury’s played in through the defence which allows him to sneak it under Maury for Havre’s second and last goal. Only six minutes after coming on, Grégory Pujol is forced off with an ankle injury and replaced by François Sinapi which allows Ducourtioux to push further up the field.

In the thirteenth minute, John Tshibumbu is elbowed in the box and he hits the deck. M’Madi takes the penalty and puts it into the left corner which the keeper saves spectacularly. David Ducourtioux furthers his good form as a ball by Louis Poggi finds its way into the penalty area. Ducourtioux sprints in front of his marker to head the ball against the post and Yoann Andreu can tap the ball past the keeper. The efforts of Auxerre aren’t enough to get the point and Bee’s men go away once again with all three points.

After a couple of chances, Gazélec get their goal through Ali M’Madi who tackles a defender before using his pace to get past the last defender and tuck the ball into the bottom corner. M’Madi, who’s been brilliant today, manages to intercept a defender. He spots the keeper off his line and he tries to chip the keeper from far out and from an angle but his effort bounces of the crossbar. Mohamed Larbi sprints in and finishes with a diving header to put Le Gaz two-one up.

Just before half-time, Rafik Boujedra gets his first goal for Le Gaz as M’Madi defends from the front and wins the ball. He sprints onto the left wing where he delivers a great ball along the ground for Boujedra to slide in and prod the ball past the keeper and into the back of the net. Seydou Koné manages to finish from an impossibly tight angle but it’s helped due to Clément Maury inviting the ball into the near post in the fifty-seventh minute. Kévin Mayi plays a back-heel to Mohamed Larbi who takes an awful touch in the box and tries to slide in and get the ball. In the process, he knocks over a defender which provokes roars from the home crowd but play continues and the ball rolls out into the path of Ali M’Madi who smashes it along the ground and into the bottom left corner after a tiny deflection to finish off a highly controversial goal. Grégory Pujol’s first game back from injury and he steals all three points in the last minute as he makes a great sliding challenge to get the ball from a defender whilst still keeping it under his control. He jumps up and dummies a shot past the last defender before breaking free and smashing it into the top right-hand corner!
MOTM: Ali M’Madi (9.4, GFC)
Gazélec Ajaccio’s Player of the Month
Ali M’Madi
(14 Goals and 7 Assists in 15 Games)
MOTM’s this Month = 2
The French Ligue 2 board have recognised him as the player of the month and so do we! It’s hard to imagine him being restrained and I expect him to become one of our most successful players this season.
Jonathan Kodjia has been in unreal form! I can imagine him being the driving force for putting his team in the top spot this month! M’Madi is still hot on his heels and I am looking forward to the battle of strikers for the golden boot this season!
We’ve moved into automatic promotion ourselves which I am ecstatic in that respect! The only disappointment this month was the Marseille result in the Coupe de Ligue but it really was to be expected due to them being in clinical form and we just didn’t have enough drive to get the equaliser.
Grégory Pujol is back from his second injury in a matter of weeks and he became our super sub in the last game which has earned him a more permanent place in the team providing that he can stay injury free. He reminds me of Andy Carroll, he’s amazing when he plays but he eventually has severely limited game time due to his injuries. (He’s got the injury prone trait by the way)
Our in Form Players: Ali M’Madi has unsurprisingly been in great form and he’s showing no signs of dropping it. Julien François has been in good form as a centre back. His six foot four frame has been making some great sliding and standing challenges throughout the month but above all, his aerial ability is out of this world!
Our out of Form Players: Clément Maury has not been showing the form that is expected of him. Our secondary keeper, Jules Goda, has been complaining about his lack of game time so I might decide to switch them over for the next couple of games. Despite have two great months at the start of the season, John Tshibumbu has been below par for the last couple of games and I really hope that he can salvage something before Pujol snatches it away from him.
Career Record (W: D :L): 11-3-2
Thanks for reading my latest update! I’m always happy to hear your thoughts and answer any questions you may have!
Cabee's back! Another great month in France! Sadly you got eliminated from the cup but Marseille is a top four side in France so no shame in that. You're also in a very good position in the league. M'Madi has been amazing for you.

Match 1
Liverpool 1-0 Southampton Sturridge 29
Possibly the most undeserved win I've had. Southampton dominated with 60% possession and more clear cut chances. However, we got the win through Sturridge beating his man and running clear to curl into the far corner. Mignolet made an incredible save to stop Schneiderlin's thunderbolt and Fonte managed to miss a great chance. Then there was a very dubious decision by the referee to wave play on after Can brought down Elia in the box. We had one chance late on, Forster making a good double save to deny Sterling and Sturridge.
Match 2
Spurs 0-2 Liverpool Sturridge 37
Henderson 43
We were once again atrocious, but we will always beat Spurs. Sturridge opened the scoring with an unbelievable solo goal, somehow keeping the ball in play before curling in from the tightest of angles. The second was an absolute stunner, Henderson firing into the top corner from 20 yards. Kane came close soon after, hitting the post after an underhit backpass but in the second half we became better in defence. We played the ball a lot better and Clyne would have made it 3 if it weren't for a great save by Vorm.
Match 3
Manchester City 0-1 Liverpool Gerrard 90
Playing a weakened side with no Sturridge, Coutinho or Sterling, we played a passing game that limited City and kept them on the back-foot. We had the first chance of the game when a first time cross by Markovic fell to Borini who missed by a mile. There weren't many chances but we had more, but City's only shot fell to Silva who hit the post. Hart made an incredible save to deny Lambert at the near post from Gerrard's low ball into the box. We won it, right at the death with Gerrard's shot taking a deflection off of Mangala to loop over Hart and into the back of the net. A much better result than I expected.
Match 4
Liverpool 3-2 Aston Villa N'Zogbia 23
Balotelli 45
Sanchez 58
Sturridge 78
Balotelli 90
Villa had the first chance of this incredible game, Weimann having his effort from distance stopped wonderfully by Mignolet. N'Zogbia gave them the lead when he fired in on the half volley after a failed clearance, Mignolet diving the wrong way and only managing to get a finger to the ball. Balotelli equalised, tucking in from 2 yards as Given failed to pick up the ball from Sturridge's chest down. Sanchez gave Villa the lead, breaking in behind the defence to smash in off the bar as Mignolet tried to close down the space. The Belgian keeper then made a great save to deny Agbonlahor. Sturridge put us level again, slotting in from close range on the turn. We then got the winner in the 90th, and what a winner it was. Getting the ball 30 yards out and firing into the top corner with his weaker left foot in stunning fashion.

Thoughts
First of all, this career the squads will comply with FA Premier League Squad Rules. My hope for this is to build a young squad with bits of experience here and there. This season it is Lucas and Gerrard, next will hopefully have Milner in. We want to be able to build ourselves up and become consistent in the top 4 before challenging for the title. The young squad will hopefully help me do that and I will do everything in my power to keep hold of Sturridge, Sterling and Coutinho, the core components of this squad.
The transfers: Clyne was the obvious choice. I needed someone home-grown and I wanted Johnson out. It was a straight swap, and ageing, awful right back for a young, excellent right back. Plus a bit of cash. Next was the young Serbian midfielder Kovacic. His passing and dribbling are excellent and the core reasons as to why I bought him. Excellent vision and both short and long passing mean he will be the creative force in the centre. His ball control and dribbling are his best attributes, combined with his acceleration and agility he will easily get out of tight spots. We managed to get him for £10 million less than Inter wanted as well.
Next, Nicolas Nkoulou. I needed a centre back as it is our weakest position but world class players are realistically out of our reach, hence the buying future world class players. Nkoulou, relatively young for a defender at 24 years old, the Cameroonian already has over 200 apps to his name in France. Good pace and ball control are just 2 of the great things about him, his interceptions being another. Finally, we brought in the 19 year old Spain and Lazio winger as back up for the left hand side of our attack. Possessing unbelievable pace and great dribbling, the youngster will terrorise full backs. He has already increased in stats and we only signed him on deadline day. It is currently September 1st.
Yeah, they are back! You just love Clyne, don't you? I should try him out at some point. Kovacic and Nkoulou are also nice signings (and Kovacic is from Croatia, not Serbia :P). Keita should also do a good job for you. You got off to a very good start in the league. I think you'll win at least some sort of double this season.

Motm: Joe Jacobson (WYC, 7.8)
Rowe headed in a Jacobson corner early on before McClure latched onto Craig's through ball to finally grab us a deserved second goal. We had 14 shots and 11 on target.
An Aaron Amadi-Holloway brace helped us to come back and secure our passage into the next round. His first had him holding off the defender and turning towards goal while the ball came in from Bloomfield. He fired confidently past Flinders in the Hartlepool goal. Bloomfield supplied him for his second playing an inch perfect ball allowing Amadi-Holloway to beat the offside line, on the edge of the box, and finish under Flinders. Craig added a third late on after dispossessing the defender.

McClure continued his scoring run volleying in from 6 yards after just 4 minutes thanks to good work from Morias. McClure would then have a penalty saved later on in the half. Cowan-Hall grabbed the second goal, dispossessing one defender and rounding another before firing in off the post. Ilesanmi then hacked the same man down mere minutes later earning a straight red and allowing us to close out the game easily.

Motm: Jacob Murphy (WYC, 7.5)
The first of two games between 1st (Plymouth) and 2nd (Luton) in the space of 2 days started with us playing our B Team. Plymouth were quick out of the blocks and had gained a two goal lead inside 14 minutes. Reuben Reid was the cause of both of them. He squared the ball for Harvey's tap in and then attempted the same for Cox. Wood tried to intercept it but his poor touch only helped it onto Cox and he finished past Lynch. Craig gave us late hope when he tackled Nelson and put the ball into the net but we couldn't get another.
Sky Bet FL2: Match 14
Luton Town 2-3 Wycombe Benson 57' 74'
Walker 38' 42' McClure 45' (Pen)
Motm: Paul Benson (LUT, 9.2)
A Walker brace followed by a McClure penalty, which was won by Walker, in 7 minutes gave us a 3 goal advantage going into the break. Luton came back fighting however and Ingram's short kick out went straight to Benson who converted gratefully. He then completed his brace heading in a cross with 16 minutes left to play. We remain 6th and host 4th placed Shrewsbury, who sit 3 points ahead of us, in our next game.
Matt McClure finally signed a new contract after the game which will see him stay an additional 3 years on the same £750 wage. The 22 year old striker was awash with rumours saying that he wasn't happy at the club and wanted to move on. This was fueled from the reports that he had turned down an extension earlier on in the season. With only 8 months left on his current deal, Keano and the board were extremely to have tied him down eventually, to the new deal and look forward to many prosperous seasons from the Northern Irish striker.

Motm: Alex Lynch (WYC, 6.9, 6 saves)
Things looked promising when Bloomfield netted early on after playing a one-two with Amadi-Holloway but it didn't turn out that way. We didn't capitalize on the goal and Evans was, rather harshly, judged to have brought down Grandison inside the box after a counterattack. Vernon stepped up and sent Lynch the wrong way to score his 8th league goal and secure a point for the Shrews.

It wasn't to be however as a Weimann counter attack goal on the hour mark meant we exited the competition. No complaints though as we definitely put it up to the side from Birmingham and Paris Cowan-Hall was even named MOTM while we bossed possession.

The speedster was involved a lot this month and was rewarded with two MOTM awards. He notched one goal and one assist but was a constant threat with his pace down the right hand side.

Conclusion
The start of the month was very good with 3 straight wins before unluckily losing to Plymouth, they are top for a reason though. We had a good win against a strong, second placed Luton before a slightly disappointing draw with Shrewsbury. Villa were a stronger side so like I said, I've no complaints with that loss and we did push them all the way. Next month we should pick up wins against Accrington, Exeter and Cambridge while I hope to beat Cheltenham too. A point will do against Portsmouth and progression into the next round against Crewe is a goal. Targeted Points: 13/15.
Wimbledon also offered me the job! (I know Chico.) They are in 17th (3-7-5) on 16 points. Needless to say I turned them down as I'm sticking with Wycombe.
Thanks for Reading!
You picked up a good amount of points this month and overall you did well. Like you said Plymouth are the league leaders and it's understandable that you lost. Shame that you got eliminated from the cup but Villa are a PL side. You also improved your league position nicely.
Yeah, they are back! You just love Clyne, don't you? I should try him out at some point. Kovacic and Nkoulou are also nice signings (and Kovacic is from Croatia, not Serbia :P). Keita should also do a good job for you. You got off to a very good start in the league. I think you'll win at least some sort of double this season.
Yep, I do love Clyne. Also, fixed, just a complete brain fart. Nkoulou is currently my best defender because both Skrtel and Sakho are out injured. Damn.
I've always had a soft spot for these guys and was excited when you guys voted for me to do them.
Anyway on to Transfers:
