Ummm...
I don't even know what to say. I guess John Fleck was a great signing...
I should add that this was after a 8-0 victory and a 5-0 victory

Why is he playing with your U18s still? Who's playing for the full team?

At the moment this is my Starting XI.



Fleck got the start last game and pulled out a 6.8, but received a yellow card. He's heading up join with the Scotland U-21 team, so we won't see him suiting up against ManU in 6 days. Thank God for scouts in Scotland...

It just gets better and better...
He came on in the 57th minute and pulled out a hat-trick. I should also add that Scotland was down to 9 men from the 70th minute on (2 injuries w/ no subs left to use).

If I remember correctly, my scouts only gave him 5*, even though he played like a 7* player game in and game out.

Actually, only four stars. But his offensive ratings are money, especially his 20 in long-range shots. He's not going to start over Nasri or Ribery, and an offensive jolt in games in which we're losing is just what I need off the bench for an AM, and he can fill in at MC if needed, since he is currently better than Denilson (but whom my scouts have given a 6 in potential).

Wound up finishing 4th and I'm in the playoffs with Derby County facing Birmingham.

Really need to win the playoffs cause financially were in need of the premiership money, probably won't be able to avoid administration next season if we stay in the Championship

Unreal. And my scouts only give him a 3 star potential rating, too.

Ratings are all relative. My scouts gave him a 7. He is a 7* player for Fulham, but only 3* for Arsenal. The gulf in class between our two midfields is 4* I would then assume.
