Not a bad result for my 1st competitive game, looking for my defence to improve in my next game. Also looking to sign another forward who can score me lots of goals this season.
Up next League Cup 2nd Rnd vs Cheltenham Town.
Lucas is in my best rated player in the season, you made a mistake with this move that you have sold it before .... I did not like as a player, but more and more improved in real life and better play is a pity that injury ... . and the game is also very good ....

A comfortable win there against lower league opposition and a fantastic debut from young centre back Sebastion Coates.
Up next in the Premier League are Norwich City.
You should of kept Lucas, Arsenal brought him for £15million after a season.
But you should try and replace him quickly.
Thought you might of beat Cheltenham by more than 2 goals,good luck against Norwich

A very disappointing result against a team i should really be beating, once again against a newly promoted side. Looks like next game players may be getting dropped due to poor form notably my defence.

A nightmare result as this was our 3rd defeat in a row in the league and leaves us 6 points behind the league leaders and us lying in 11th after only 5 games.
Up next are Blackburn Rovers in the 3rd round of the League Cup at Anfield.
