Not a bad start except the Everton game. Some nice players came as well, hopefuly they will help you to get a better position then last year. GL

decent start mate, Banega and Ashton should be great for you. KIU

Just read this for the first time and the first season wasn't all that bad, better than Southgate's doing now. And a decent start to the new season with some really good signings.

Now my team is in the relagation zone again, I will get them out from there, one win might changes that, so I will change my tactic to if that will change.I hope it will help.

you're getting alot of draws at home mate, maybe try being slightly more adventurous and pushing on for that winning goal.

Good luck !

tough two months you had, lost of draws that you need to turn into wins.

lots of low scoring draws, strikers obviously not on form: standard middlesbrough then really. GL with getting that elusive win

PS: How the hell did West Ham get Sakho ??? Is it only on loan ?

West Ham bought him for £5.25 millions punds, in euros is 5.75 millions, before this second season started.

Damm, that`s cheap. I never got him for less than 20m euro :(

The End Of Season 2009/10

Looks like abit of an indifferent spell there mate, chin up though you are doing well overall if you look what Southgate has done to them in real life.
