Transfers, Tactics and League Form
Transfers
I wanted to make some changes to the squad, the squad was a fairly young one but they still had bags of experience with them. I wanted some youngsters to propel us up the league and be a staple of the first team when we get to the Premier League, which I am confident of doing.
Here are the transfers which i made:
Overall, I was fairly pleased with my business, the only player I spent money on was Fierro who everybody signs. I was disappointed with the width that I managed to bring to the club and wanted another player signed but overall, fairly good. Here are the key transfers I made:
A good player who adds width to the team, and a new attacking incentive in the way we play.
A good player who will slot straight into our first team. He fits my system very well as he is good defensively and good going forward, a player I may be looking to bring in permanently.
I think we all know about this boy. An insane player who is capable of being a world beater. He is an ideal signing for a club like us.
Tactics
I wanted to play an attacking game and wanted to dominated possession. I wanted to play quick tempo stuff and most of all, I wanted to get the results. I decided to try something new. I have never delved into classic tactics before but I wanted to have more of an effect on the tactics. I decided to have 2 tactics for now, a home tactic and an away tactic. I wanted them to be similar in the formation, but different in the team instructions.
Overall, what I was aiming for with this was quick attacking football with a solid team as a unit. I felt this tactic utilised our game very well. A solid defence with 2 attacking fullbacks and a defensive focused midfielder to help the central defenders. 2 other solid central midfielders to play box to box, both attacking and defending. A good playmaker grinding out transfers for my striking partnership.
This tactic was very similar to the home one. Just the fullbacks defended more, the central midfielders made more of an effort to get back and I had a defensive midfielder to add to the defensive efforts. I played more of a counter attacking style with more direct passing.
The league
I will be covering 10 games at a time, showing you all of the fixtures and the results individually. These are the first 10 fixtures (excluding friendlies).
The friendlies didn't go very well and I wasn't thinking our league form would be that good.
An immense start to the season, my tactics have started very well. I don't have the league table as I played ahead (sorry <3) but we were top of the league at this point! An insane start and the best player so far has to be Greg Halford, he is such a great player, he is a rock at the back!!
