Well I started a game as Newcastle on my updated 7.0.0 (English transfers done, other major transfers done, finances copied from bozza's db). Asked for more money and was given $AU122mil (50mil pounds)
Aim for the season: Top 6
Obviously Newcastle have some great strikers so I didn't need to invest too much there. Defense was the major issue with only Steven Taylor and maybe David Rozehnal up to standard.
Off season signings:
With Dan Agger on his way for $AU19mil in January, Pique (22mil) and Sunny (7mil) next summer. Delighted to get Akinfeev as well.
Duff and N'Zogbia were surplus to requirements after the signings of Drenthe, Esparza and Guardado. Milner isn't up to the standard I require and Given's sale funded half of the Akinfeev signing.
So this is my usual starting XI:
Had a great start with 7 wins and 5 draws from the first 12 games before losing to top side Man City. After 15 games:
Since that I've won 2 and lost 1 to be sitting 3rd after 18 rounds. Just hoping to stay in the top 6 for the rest of the season...
