Pre-Season review

​

In the first 4 games of the pre-season, i only used reserve or youth players, in the last game against Libourne i put some main players in the squad. I realized it was a crappy idea when Valbuena and Andre Ayew got injured.
Then we took on Lille in the Champions Trophy, it was a quite horrific performance from our side.I had my doubts before the game when i saw that all the players morale were poor, very poor or abysmal.Luckly for my next game against Sochaux, all the main players should be back.
