Hey, well as I said, I've played about 15 games since my last update which will take quite a long time to write up, so I'll just give you a run down of the recent results, and next time I promise a full update will be done.
So, results wise it's been good, and probably the best result we've had was beating Shakhtar 4-0 away from home
I was amazed with the team, especially as we went down to 10 men when we were 2-0 up, yet we carried on scoring goals on the counter, Clint Dempsey was top class in this game
Other than that, not many results stick out as fantastic, although we managed a 0-0 draw at Stamford Bridge, which is a rarity to not concede there.

As the table stands, we're in 6th, with the same points and same goal difference as 7th placed Everton, with us 2 points off 5th, and 4 points off 4th place, so it's really tight at the moment and anything could happen, but we should finish at least 7th if we keep playing like this

Team stats wise, we no longer have have the best home form in the division, although we have conceded the 7th least amount of goals in the league, and are the 5th highest scorers, so in that department it's going well.

In the player stats part, Gignac is the 7th top scorer in the league, and Ashley Young has the 4th highest amount of assists. So once again, it's going well stastically, Young & Gignac have been fantastic for us in pretty much every game they've played in, and we usually win when they play.

Transfer wise, we brought in 5 players in the January window, the players were Garay, Van Der Vaart on loan, Patrick Vieira, Marc Muniesa and finally the biggest deal being Aiden McGeady arriving at The Cottage for £11.75m on deadline day
These were pretty much all brought in to fill weak positions, apart from Muniesa who is a good prospect for the future which is what we need.

Player of the season so far:
Well, it could be the one and only
Ashley Young, with 11 goals and 18 assists in all competitions it shows how important he really is for us and wins us so many games with amazing goals and fantastic delivery into the box for Gignac. Manchester United put in an enquiry as you know, and also Manchester City were linked with a £24m move for Young, but thankfully the didn't bid, otherwise I expect my board would of accepted it.
