Great to turn pro Having a good season, I'd say next season promotion is reasonably certain!

Tactics

Alright, I'm going to keep the 4-4-2 formation, but here's a new wrinkle I'm going to unveil this season. What we have a lot of is strong center midfielders and center backs, and I'd like to take advantage of them by utilizing this formation. I'm not sure what roles I want to use for the center midfielders and center backs, but I do want to use this formation often.

had to catch up quite a bit with your story. Great first season in the BSP. Onwards and Upwards, you got something good here
