Aston Villa hire new manager!​

Aston Villa Manager Martin O'Neill has been fired for undisclosed reasons and been replaced by unproven 19 year old Canadian Manager, Robert Hay. Fans have already hit out at Chairman Randy Lerner claiming he is an idiot for hiring the unknown manager. Hay has already hit back at the fans stating that he understands how they feel but guarantees them they will be singing his name at the end of the season.​

Injury News​

Brazillian Duo Hernanes and Thiago Neves have both been injured during training this month and will miss the first month of the season. Also on the Injury List is Midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker who will miss the first game of the season with a fractured arm.

Edit: Thanks to fm crashing just as I was about to play the game against Tottenham I have had to go back to before the Euro Cup draw. The new draw puts me up against Amkar. The only other change is my Brazillian Duo are not injured going into the month​
