One bit of advice, it's easier to read the text if it is a normal black font which would benefit everyone. Great story and a few screenshots would make it more enjoyable to see.

END OF SEASON REPORT

This was quite a good season for The Reds, securing Europa League football after finishing seventh, despite a poor start.

PREMIER LEAGUE
Winner-Manchester United
Relegation-Fulham, Southampton, Aston Villa

We also won the Europa League with a 3-0 win against Celtic in the final.

PLAYER OF THE SEASON
DEDE
View attachment 369362
A rock at the heart of the defence

PRE SEASON
Well, we started our preparations for the new season with a few youngsters joining from other clubs.

YOUNG SIGNINGS
Robert FieBer from Sttutgart £2m-Winger
Paolo Platter from Inter £1.8m-Right-Back
Mattia Gadda from Juventus £2.5m-Goalkeeper

Most of these will go out on loan continually until they're good enough.

A few players unfortunately left Anfield for pastures new this summer, here's the list

Jay Spearing to Norwich for £3m
Appearances-70

Unfortunately Jay had to leave as we have too many good players blocking his route into the first team

Sebastian Coates to Atletico Madrid for £5m
Appearances-15

Sebastian had to go because we have Daniel Agger, Jamie Carragher, Ryan Shawcross and Dede blocking his route to the first team

Lucas Leiva to Chelsea for £40m
Appearances-156

He scored in the Europa League final but found himself leaving Anfield only a month or two later, he wasn't up for sale, but when an offer of this size came in he had to go.

Andy Carroll to Swansea on loan

INS
Sven Bender from Borussia Dortmund for £17.5m
View attachment 369367

When the big German became available I couldn't say no, we'd been trailing him for a year beforehand and this knock-down price was a bargain

Dani Carvajal from Bayer Leverkusen for £22m
View attachment 369368

We were looking for a better right-back than Marin Kelly as that was our weakest position and we found a better one in Dani

Radamel Falcao from Atletico Madrid for £25m
View attachment 369369

Well, goalscoring wasn't our strongest point during much of last season, Daniel Sturridge was particularly disappointing so I signed Falcao when he became available.

The Morrocan did well this month, scoring some good goals​
 
Has Falcao been injured? By my reckoning he has only scored 4 goals in 14 matches and 2 of those were in the same match!

He's scored 4 in ten with 3 assists so far

It's probably taking him a while to settle, when i signed Dede, he was alright until January, then he just owned
