My view: FINALLY! Our season has finally got going. Sissoko has been terrific, he's run pretty much every game (apart from Chelsea), he looks a different player to the crappy waste of space that played in the first few games of the season. Gouffran has been a revelation and has been keeping Cisse out of the side. Also, we're still in the C1C and Europa League. Great stuff.

My view: A good month overall. The defeat to Norwich and being eliminated from the C1C was disappointing, but our comebacks against City and Norwich at home were good, not to mention the win at Sunderland! My only real concern was the fact that we had no league clean sheets in the whole of December.

My view: A fantastic month! We're sitting pretty in the top 4 for the first time this season, Wellington Nem is really coming into his own, and due to the absences of Kweuke and Cisse for AFCON Sammy Ameobi has taken his chance in the first team and I'll be keeping him in the starting XI even when they return. Great month, but Man United up next, hoping they don't burst our bubble.

Barclays Premier League - Season 2012/13 Review


Winners: Chelsea
Champions League: Liverpool, Newcastle, Spurs
Europa League: Arsenal, Man United, Everton
Relegated: Fulham, Reading, Aston Villa
Overachievers: Newcastle (3rd place)
Underachievers: Man United (6th place)
Manager of the Year: Rafa Benitez (Chelsea)
Player of the Year: Michu
Young Player of the Year: Wellington Nem

Newcastle
Transfers IN:
Michu - £17m - Scored 25 goals and got 12 assists last season, wanted out of Swansea. Maybe overpaid but he is lethal
Kevin Strootman - £20m - Again perhaps overpaid but most of it was in installments, plus I needed a replacement after Vurnon Anita's £20m release clause was activated by Chelski.
Petr Cech - £10m - Awesome goalkeeper and can still go for another 5-6 years, IMO a steal at £10m. Was on transfer list
Frank Lampard - Free - He is awesome. His stats are all great, and to pick him up for free is great deal. Will bring experience to our young squad, also has experience in the UCL.
Steffano Raggi - £1.4m compensation fee - OMG. 5 star regen signed from Roma, Will be awesome, if you want a screenshot of him then ask on the thread
Nicolas Audren - £1.1m compensation fee - 3 and a half star regen, but his stats are macth engine gold. Will probably sell for profit .

TRANSFERS OUT:
Vurnon Anita - £20m - Chelski activated his release clause. A decent price if you ask me.
Ryan Taylor - £2.5m - Not Champions League quality. Farmed out to newly promoted Cardiff.
Haris Vuckic, JJ Hooper, Nile Ranger, Marcus Maddison, and many others (CBA) went out for 1st team experience.

If it's OK with you guys, I'm going to start doing 1/2 season updates only as I simply don't have enough spare time to update on each month

 

[JCMUtdfan1]

Good to see that you turned your season around mate It will be interesting to see how you do in the Champions League.

 

[toonarmy0511]

NOOOOO!!! Why did you sell Anita?? He is the best B2B midfielder in the game, not to mention the most versatile

A few tips:
- Go with a 4-4-2, either Modern Warfare or Nezza's super 442.
- Sign Mamadi Sidibe from stoke (around 200k) and have him tutor Adam Campbell to raise his determination to 20.

Great story so far. I always enjoy a good Newcastle story.
