  1. I'm baised, and aware I'm boring everyone, but again that's a big part of what Toney brings - defending his own box at corners
  2. Baffled Trent isn't on yet tbh. Not sure Saka and Eze as wingbacks is the best move
  3. Toney is great at winning those free kicks to get his team up the pitch. Also helps kill time.
  4. United fans hate City so much they want their players subbed off the bench as well as the pitch
  5. Bring on the Brentford player and Hey Jude starts playing. Southgate masterclass
  6. I think a lot of the stick he has gotten over the past few years has been well over the top but Southgate deserves everything he's gonna get for this. Not even a England fan and I'm feeling annoyed
  7. Ignoring that Rob hasn't spent the whole tournament saying how bad England have been playing just for a cheap shot. Behave man
  8. Venables leaving had nothing to do with how England did though. Hoddle was announced as manager before Euro 96 even happened
  9. I've been doing what I think of as "realistic" in that it's away games (usually midweek) against local small sides and then bigger sides at home at weekend for the money. However I've gone full on moral and fitness this upcoming pre season so hopefully see an impact.
  10. League Two 2029/30 Season Review League - A very strange season really. We once again started slowly, I'm starting to think that I might need to rethink how I do pre season as we always seem to start slow, but found form in the middle of the season before a hellish run where had only 1 free midweek between the start of December and the middle of March. We really struggle with 3 games a week as we don't have the depth really to rotate without really weakening the team, then throw in injuries and suspensions and this run killed us. We ended a decent 15th but we really need to try and stop letting in so many. We had a top 5 attack and a bottom 5 defence. FA Cup - Our best ever run in this, getting to the 4th round. Still not got that big away day yet though League Cup - probably our best time in this too but we're yet to make it to round 2 EFL Trophy - this I just don't care about. I use it to try different tactical ideas I'm having and playing fringe players to rest my better ones wherever I can Transfers - Lots of loans out with a couple returning ready for first team football Squad - Like I say the attack is very good, lead by Aaron Greene who keeps getting better and has nearly 1 in 2 over his career so far but I need to sort the defence out. They've all got potential at this level but most are still playing a couple levels above their CA Youth Intake - Was excited by the preview but think it's our worst intake yet with only 1 player tagged by me Junior Kenyon 30A - looks like a decent wing back I think Career Overview Season League Position Junior Coaching Youth Recruitment Notes 2024/25 VNLS 1st Good Average Promotion, Manager of the year 2025/26 VNL 10th Good Above Average First coaching badge 2026/27 VNL 2nd Good Above Average Promotion via playoffs, Manager of the season, second coaching badge 2027/28 L2 10th Adequate Above Average 3rd coaching badge 2028/29 L2 12th Good Above Average Continental C Licence obtained 2029/30 L2 15th Good Good Continental B Licence Obtained. Started on Continental A Oh and we did get another takeover for our second owner of the season He's put no money in which is annoying but he's what we've got now so better crack on.
  11. I'd have liked Wharton to have started tonight for sure. Gordon call I kinda get coz he does offer width and running in behind but my hatred for him means I'd never call for him to be in the side Palmer could only really come in for Saka or Jude and I don't think he offers more than either of them, I'd have him used by now as a sib for sure though.
  12. I mean he's used 16 players in 2 games and of the 10 that haven't seen a minute 2 are keepers and 1 isn't fit (shaw) so there's only 7 players not got any time yet.
