I saw sense and got rid of Gudjohnsen.
Jones and Lukaku were my front pairing, solid. Strength, pace, height everything you'd want. Fuller was impact sub and decent cover. Walters was good cover for ST and RM too.
After one season of cup action and a few appearances off the bench, Gudjohnsen went from 75, to 73. This season after 2 weeks off being on the bench, after i signed Andy Carroll, he dropped to 72.
And his age, i just got rid. Same with Tuncay, never used him and needed the funds more, got a decent £5m.
IN's: Ospina (£2m) Hutton (£5.7m) Gibbs(loan) Wilshere(loan) Kouyate(£2.3m) Lukaku(£4m)
Then second season: Albrighton(£4m) Muamba(£3.5m) Canella(free) Frimpong(free) Carroll(£4.5m)
Outs: Sidibe, Tonge, Soares, Sonko, Begovic, Sorenson, Pennant(loan ended) Wilshere(loan ended), Gibbs(loan ended), Tuncay, Gudjohnsen, Wilson.
This season ive got to get a top 6 finish, currently 6th. In Europa league im 2nd in a group of 4. Atletico Madrid, Malmo FC, FK Austria. Beat the two shitters easy, then lost to Madrid, but drew at home to them.
I didnt realise until the last game only 1 went through. So i relied on Malmo beating Madrid.

Out of interest, is anyone playing as a club other than Stoke on manager mode or are we all living the dream as the Mighty Potters?

Sam (Pro) Hutton Shawcross Huth Gibbs(loan) Camacho Pitriopa Etherington Wilshere Lukaku Jones Wilshere is pretty poor for me in the AM role so i'm thinking of swapping him for Gudjohnsen for a bit now.

1) I do have a manager mode as QPR but only played up to November in first season. Signed Odonkor, NZonzi, De Vrij and Van Aanholt but never got into it.
2) I've just signed Pitriopa too. £5.2m and he's a great impact sub for the last 30mins. Decent cover for Ethers and Albrighton.
3)) Lukaku is defo worth the £6m. He is basically a 17 year old version of Jones but has a long range and power shot on his side. Id say he's not as good in the air as Jones but he is still a great headerer.

Had to sacrifice a few good squad players for that team! Barry was a free agent but the team is so good Also have Kakuta as a reserve as Albrighton is a better replacement ;D

I dont really look at keepers that much.
I'll get them if they're under 25. Highish rating. Long throw. Tall.
Ospina was only £1.2m though and better than Begovic, who i sold for £3m.

Bench: Begovic, Wilkinson, Whitehead, Huth, Fuller, Walters and Tonge.

How much is Neymar? I've only got £4m but i'm looking to shift a few dead woods. Might aswell get in on the bumming. Also thinking of changing shape. Played 442 since the start so im thinking of going to a different shape. 4-1-3-2 Ospina Hutton - Shawcross - Huth - Canella Muamba Albrighton - Lukaku - Etherington Carroll - Jones
or
Ospina Hutton - Huth - Shawcross - Canella Albrighton - Muamba Pitriopa - Jones - Etherington Carroll
4231

I had to resort back to playing 4-1-3-2.
I used to play 4-2-3-1 but hated playing with only one striker upfront. With the 2 strikers upfront, I use Neymar's pace to get in behind and then cut back/cross it in for Kenny J to knock home.
Since getting Fallout 4 though, manager mode has taken a back seat. Watching a woman get eaten by dogs, then killing said dogs, then looting the half eaten woman's clothes to sell is more fun at the moment. ;D
