Rebuilding Liverpool

Felix Bailey arrives at Liverpool after Brendan Rodgers leaves after being given just £3,000,000 to play with. The fans are quite unhappy with the appointment due to the fact that Bailey is a relatively unknown manager. One thing that the fans have been pleased with is that he is a Liverpool fan.

Demba Ba: Low release clause and good quality
Florent Malouda: Transfer listed and ultra-cheap, good experience
Raul Albiol: Needed third quality centre back
Adryan: Low release clause and good future
Wilfried Zaha: Good future prospect
Nathan Redmond: Good now, only going to get better

Tactics
My starting line is as follows:
Ba-----Suarez
Gerrard
Redmond/Malouda---------------------Henderson/Sterling
Lucas-----Sahin
Skrtel--Albiol--Agger
Reina

Hey you might want to change some attachments,they aren't currently working. Also looking forward to see how you play in the right back,without glen johnson and martin kelly.Anyway, gl.
 
Selling Enrique, Johnson and Kelly is very risky.. No full backs hardly now
 
I am playing without fullbacks so I thought I'd sell them and use the money to get other players.

Not a great month, two late goals for the opposition in QPR and Newcastle games, losing to QPR on the opening day of the season were a real low point. Really pleased with Borini's hatrick vs Ventspils though.

Much better! Beating Tottenham while they were top was such a good feeling. Still annoyed with the Chelsea game though, Torres scored the equaliser. In the Aston Villa game Borini got a 91st minute winner.

That leaves us in 7th, 3 points off second.

Capital One Cup Quarter Final Draw vs Man City

Another unbeaten month! Through to the knockout stage of the Europa League with 2 games in hand and absolutely thrilled with the last two results. The notable matches were a 1-0 win in the Merseyside derby, a 3-3 draw vs Arsenal and a 3-3 (we win on penalties) draw with Man City. In the Arsenal game, Gerrard got sent off for two bookings with the game at 1-1, Reina scores an own goal but Ba gets his second. Then they hit back in the second half but again Ba scores to complete hatrick. In the Man City game it was almost a repeat of Istanbul, three down at half time, 3-3 at full time with Borini getting the equaliser in the 89th. We win after a incredibly tense shoot-out.

Not sure who I've got in the semis for the Capital One Cup but West Brom beat Chelsea on penalties
 
Forgot to mention that I got the stadium expansion and youth facilities improvement. I also got £10m for transfer budget and got Everton in Capital One Cup semis

An absolutely awful month, only 3 wins out of 8 with 4 losses and a draw. The good would be beating ten man, Man City, 2-1, the bad would be all other none winning results and the ugly would be losing 2-0 to Reading and Newcastle. Explanation for the Dinamo game is that I played the Reserve side. In the Newcastle game both Tiote and Gerrard got sent off in the first half.

Tempted to give to nobody but Leiva got two Man of the Matches so gave it to him.
Thank god, somehow we're still 6th but only 1 game in hand on Utd and 2 game out of hand to Chelsea.

Another upside is I got Maritimo in the 1st knockout stage of the Europa League.
I got Dynamo Kyiv or Galtasaray in the 2nd.
