I'm in February of 2011 with Wolves now. Sold Fletcher and Ebanks-Blake to Ajax and bought Chinedu Obasi from Hoffenheim. Paired him up with Kevin MFing Doyle and moved to a 4-1-3-2 because my wingers have come on nicely. Hammill and Jarvis are at 75 with a lot of room to grow still. Best thing about last night was Hennessey getting sent off in my FA cup tie with Bolton and realizing I didn't have another keeper on the bench. Ebanks-Blake's bittersweet transfer was capped off with his first and last clean sheet.
So I'm playing the Carling Cup final against Arsenal last night. Score is 1-1 in the 83'. I clear the ball from my box with Hennessey (takes rather flat goal kicks), it goes straight to the head of RVP, into the goal. I am stunned. Arsenal has won a trophy. In the 89', in an act of desperation after RVP gets away with a blatant foul outside the box, I go in for the dirtiest of tackles and end his season like that. He goes down hard and Ronald Zubar takes a red. Kiss your league title hopes goodbye, Gunners. Bendtner is sitting on MY bench right now with a shattered ego and a shattered tibia.
Will post my favorite FIFA picture that I took in my FA cup match against Arsenal later. Has a great view of Almunia fumbling the ball and virtual Arsenal's new prize signing, Subotic, doing his best to make it an own goal.
I noticed a problem with scheduling starting with the 3rd season and it happened again in the 4th season. It schedules your league games in the order of finish. So you play the 2nd team from last year first (cuz I won the league), then the 3rd place team, etc. Sucks.
So I won the qualifying round of the Champions League with Viking FK. My reward in the group stage. Liverpool Spartak Moskva (Moscow) Barcelona Good night sweet Viking FK.
