January
Transfers
We did our transfer business early on this window with agreeing to sell Alex Centelles to Frankfurt for £400,000 as he wasn't happy being backup now so it made sense to let him go for nearly a £200k profit.
Comin into the squad we needed a new striker to come in and challenge Lopez so we splashed £2.2m on Fer Nino from Villarreal who looks like he will be a quality striker for us for seasons to come
Next in we needed a bit more help in the middle of the park and I noticed that Nikolas Nartey's contract was expiring so we decided to sign him for a cut down price of £975k from Stuttgart
Mirandes v Deportivo
Mella was given a rare start here and he took the most of it getting on the scoresheet before Lopez got the vital 2nd goal.
Copa del Rey 2nd Round
Yeclano Deportivo v Deportivo
Fer Nino has a **** of a debut here even if we did leave it late to make sure we progress to the next round
Deportivo v Real Betis
Real Betis just aren't what they use to be as we beat them comfortably and Lopez is given a boot up the backside as he gets he brace to get back to scoring ways.
Copa del Rey 3rd Round
Eibar v Deportivo
Nino is at it again as we get enough to get us through to the 4th round. We're going to have to figure out how to get them both into the team.
Deportivo v Real Sociedad B
We moved Lopez to the left wing here to see how he'd get on and it looks like they will both be able to start going off of this performance
Real Oviedo v Deportivo
Nino is already showing that he is a great buy and is going to net us a nice profit when it comes time to sell him
Copa del Rey 4th Round
Deportivo v Real Sociedad
Yet again we go out to a team in LaLiga like previous seasons but we did well to hang on until nearly half time and then not conceding again.
League
Our lead is back up to 6 points and we're now 13 points clear of 4th which means thanks to Barcelona B not being able to be promoted then as long as we finish in the top 3 then we will get automatic promotion
February
With us being out the cup we're just back to league action as we can now attack the 2nd half of the season
