stewart meakin player report- meakin has played 26 games for club,with an extremely high average rating of 7.72. he also has 11 caps for country, with his composure at the back being the big reason for his high amount of caps.
luke kooma player report- kooma has made 19 club appearances(including 5 as a substitute) with an average rating of 7.16. he has 10 caps for country and has great technical and physical attributes, although his mental attributes let him down. he has attracted interest from man city, arsenal and Barcelona recently.

Ouch, clearly suited more to CB
definitely! have 7 defender out injured at the moment though so he had to try out there as he can play all across the back.|)
As long as I play I don't mind where. Have I had any interest from bigger clubs?
You have Major interest from Real Madrid and Minor interest from Barcelona so you'll probably get a move in the summer, I think a lot of players on this should as a lot have interest
Montenegro v Cyprus
View attachment 406883
we played a 4-1-4-1 here, in an attempt to control the midfield.line up looks defensive but we had 2 aps and 2 wingers set to attack, our style here was similar to guardiolas Bayern. injuries meant kooma had to play out of his best position in centre back and andreas naterr in lm, although they are both capable of playing here it isn't their favoured roles.

a superb performance, we dominated the game. stats are against us because we sat back and let them play last 15 minutes to keep it tight, they had a lot of possession and long range(wasteful) shots during that time.the first goal came after brilliant triangles with murley,collum and russo down the right side of the pitch, murley was then threaded through by collum who laid it back for collum to finish. the second goal came straight after this, naterr took the corner and tala won the header at the front post to score the goal. after some good football from them they pulled one back with vucinic firing in for just inside the area. Wallace completed the game 2 mins later, with more brilliant triangle play from russo,collum and murley down the right. murley then crossed in for Wallace to hit the post, but it fell back into his path for him to tap in.
RANDOM PLAYER WATCH- Daniel Murley
Murley played superbly, his link up play with russo and collum was an absolute joy to watch. would be man of the match if it wasn't for sean collums performance.
MAN OF THE MATCH- Sean Collum
2 moms in the row for him now,he got a goal and was a key part of all our best football in this game.brilliant performance from him.
WORST PLAYER OF THE MATCH- Max Gonzalez
had very little effect on game. was subbed on 65 for a more conservative midfielder.

were 2nd,so with a bit of luck, we could sneak into euro 2016. this would be ahead of schedule so I wont be that upset,but ill be delighted if we get into it. it would also help anyone without a club attract a top club if we do.

I seem to have dropped out of the national side? Form or Injury or What?
Hungary v Cyprus
a big game for us as we start to believe we could actually qualify for euro 2016.

10 players from the Montenegro game start her. stewart meakin takes koomas place as he comes back from suspension.

a 1-1 draw is not bad,it leaves the race for qualification still in our hands so it will do. we played well here and if anyone was going to win it would have been us. their goal came from a very long range shot, and goalkeeper Hercules spilt it into his own net( but at 6"11 im not the person telling him that hes ****!
). we responded just 4 minutes later, with the brilliant triangle(russo,collum,murley) recapturing their Montenegro form before murley played it to jallow about 15 yards out, he turned and fired it into the top corner. jallow nearly won us the game in injury time but his shot hit the post,hit the keepers back, but then the defender cleared it off the line.
RANDOM PLAYER WATCH- Andreas Naterr
our stand in skipper whilst morgan is injured did well when he got the ball, but a lot of our play seems to be based down the right side so he didn't see much of it.
MAN OF THE MATCH- Ousman Jallow
scored the goal and was a constant danger to their defence,he led the line very well which is important when were playing 1 up top.
WORST PLAYER OF THE MATCH- Hercules
made a big mistake. did ok other than that but his mistake wins this award for him.

Estonia can go ahead if they win their game in hand but I think we should beat them at home so not too worried about them. we deserve to go through for scoring twice as many as the 3rd top scorers in the group.
games left are:
Estonia (h) should win this one I think.
Russia (a) not much chance of a win, but everyone except Montenegro still has to play them aswell so not too bad.
Montenegro (h) this is what it could boil down to,we beat them away so we should have a decent chance at home.

saw this as a good chance to play Houghton and collum centrally with wingers making runs for them to play through

a bad result as I was so confident that this is the game left we really should have been winning. jallow rounded the keeper after taking the ball off a defender and tapped it in. they then equalised with a back post header from a corner.jallow then scored an absolute bullet header own goal after we failed to clear a corner. rao hunted the keeper down well to tap it into the empty net.
RANDOM PLAYER WATCH- Dimitris Zandberg
zandberg did his job well wiining the ball and playing a simple pass. not a bad performance from him.
MAN OF THE MATCH- Akshay Rao
he scored, and unlike jallow didn't score an own goal so he gets man of the match for this game.
WORST PLAYER OF THE MATCH- James Roots
missed a header leading up to their first goal and he wasn't solid at the back generally either.
