Interesting poll idea...although sacking them might be a bit extreme haha (you can just make the poll public so people can see who voted for who...sounds easier than sacking eh? )
Swansea are performing above all expectations this year and currently sit in 4th place in the table.
Bergkamp had this to say:
"We are having a great time at the club, morale is high, the performances are fantastic. I couldn't have asked for a better start. Will I be looking to do some business in the Window? Me and Arsene have spoke and agreed that we will not sign anyone unless the right deal comes along, if it does then yes we will do something. As for players leaving there were a few team chasing our big players in summer, if the right offer comes along then we will not stand in any players way of a dream move."
Transfer window is now open!!
(The window will be open until midnight Monday, I will post the transfer updates on Tuesday)
I have a few updates/rule adjustments -
Due to 2 clubs going into Administration:
-Sunderland
-Aston Villa
They will be required to make at least one high profile sale as a small punishment!
Secondly because of the amount of overspending during the Summer, I have made a small adjustment (which may change again during the summer). For now though, NO club will be able to make any signings whilst they are currently in minus figures! So you may need to SELL before you can BUY! This will require a lot more C2C sales.
At the end of the window(which lasts from weeks 1 -3 of January) I will ask for a list of transfer listed players to be pm?d to me from each chairman and I shall transfer list them in hoping that the AI manages to get rid of some of the dead wood in the last week of January.
Third, in order to make this process go smoothly, I will once again provide a template for chairmen to fill out; if it is not used I will not consider the transfer. The template will allow me to easily copy and paste into my excel project and will save me time from having to calculate every players new wage and their transfer price, which when I get 50 transfer messages, it can take a while.
Template
In order to help chairmen with the calculations, I quickly wrote a basic, small program that requires users to select a few options, such as ??DOM or FGN?, ?u18, 19-32 or 33+? and ??international caps??, along with typing in the current wage and market value of the player. The program will then take all the chairmen game rules into consideration and calculate the new wage and transfer price. After that all you need to do is put the details into the template and send them to me.
This should speed things up for all chairmen and myself
3 losses and 2 draws were not what "The Terminator" had in mind for this month!
Reports suggest that AVB was dragged into a meeting with the boss minutes after the final whistle went after their loss at Villa Park!
Mr Schwarzenegger appears to be far from pleased with his new manager and the results he has produced.
He had this to say for himself earlier:
Andres Villas Boas and I have had a chat and we both agree the results need to improve. We have the squad to mount a serious title challenge and this needs to happen sooner rather than later!
We may look to bring another player in with experience in this window but we would need a few players to leave first!
Every Sunderland & Villa player should be transfer listed to increase interest from other clubs. This would happen in real life if a administrator came in to sell off the clubs assets.
