Need To Improve Urgently
Goalkeeper (1st Choice), Left Midfield (1st Choice) and Striker (To Partner Maynard)
Improve If Possible
Strengthen Centre Back, Right Winger To Challenge Bopp, More Options Upfront

Potential Signings
Charles-Andre Doudin - £16k-£100k / La Chaux-de-Fonds - Must buy. Averaged a goal a game upfront for me with Crewe
Mikko Vilmunen - £26k / Drogheda United - More than capable Goalkeeper
Tommy Spurr - £200k-£250k / Millwall - Excellent defender
Stephen Ward - £60k / Wolves - Striker but excellent on left wing
Seth Johnson - Free Transfer - Cover for left and centre mid. Fans Favourite

Others possible signings include Sabic and Fernandez depending on your game settings.

Consider Selling
Stuart Tomlinson, Julian Baudet, Daniel O'Donnell, George Abbey, Ben Rix, Ryan Lowe

Link Up With Liverpool
They tend to offer you Goalkeeper David Martin and Right Winger Nabil El Zhar. Always accept El Zhar, but as for Martin, see what your goalkeeping situation is like. Other players theyve'd offered include Sebastian Leto (World Beater at this level) Kriztian Nemeth, Jordy Brouwer, Aridane, Damian Plessis, Ryan Crowther.

Other
Play-off challenge is easily possible in first season. A basic 4-4-2 does the job for me, but normally involves the 'i'll score one more than you approach'.

Great guide mate, never knew Crewe and Stoke were fierce rivals hehe.

One point of critism: If you mention who the best players of the team are, I would like to see a screenshot of the player's profile. Just one thing I missed in this guide.

For the rest, great guide !!!! Hope there are more coming!
