Season 30 Week 21 processing...

Nothing so exciting going on transfer wise across London at Watford's main title rivals this season, could that mean less of a challenge next season or will the fine tuning result in another improved season points wise to continue the trend which is all the manager can ask for....a backup RB and a young striker coming in will hardly get the fans excited!

Nantes are simply a case of 2 in 2 out, again fine tuning, nothing to get excited about but with recent successes it would seem a bit daft for wholesale changes.

Fluminense are a different kettle of fish altogether.  This season has hurt the fans, in previous years they have enjoyed various successes using a simple formula.  Bring through youth players and then sell them on when they develop enough to play at a higher level.  The problem now is that the competition in the league and cup has increased markedly mainly due to Phil's Botafogo and the resurgence of Flamengo, Sao Paolo and Santos this season.  
The hierarchy want to reassure the fans, that whilst a similar model needs to continue, they recognise there is also a need for more experience and quality through the middle of the park and are willing to sanction a new club transfer record.  The manager has promised to promote more youth next season, introducing the likes of Lucas Paqueta, Vinicius Junior, Reinier, Douglas Luiz, Emerson Leite, Mateus Cunha, Antony and Renan Lodi into the first team setup, but with the condition the board will sanction a move for an experienced player in the middle of the park to educate the youngsters and also a superstar nine figure signing to lead the new young team into hopefully a new successful era for the team.  Exciting times for the Flu fans.....

Data entry has started, a day late cos of the bank holiday...

Hi Paul, did you get my turn okay? Doesn't say that you have within this thread as far as I can see.

Can't believe I've been playing since 1990..... must be overdue some sort of testimonial. 

CHELSEA


Not a lot going on at Chelsea apart from trying to get the club financially self sustaining , a possible formation change for next season as lets face it MIX is boring isn't it. In terms of players nothing  in the pipeline at the moment , my squad is small and any player I let go would need replacing and with likewise quality which is hard when a lot of quality players that would walk in to most first teams are at feeder clubs and any decent youngster I have nothing to bargain with until I can get myself in a position to challenge for these sort of deals.

Emelec


Couple of players coming in on loan that will be guaranteed starters and improve the side for what is a poor league with poor teams but I would prefer that at the moment as I am in no position to challenge for anything , Also a lot of building work taking place as I need to start bringing money in to the club.

My security manager has to earn his coin this week , if we can get out of Liverpool with the coach wheels intact the lads done good and might get a pay rise

Paul , how many players can I loan in at my feeder club?

He don’t sleep much as it is, if you join french league I feel his early season Benitez moment will pale insignificant to what may follow

I just take it as a compliment you all want to be in the same leagues as me, makes me feel all warm inside. And that’s a fact.
