Basic History
I started a saved game where I would start unemployed and would take any job that came, and try to build up a reputation. Within months Oxford approached me where I managed to achieve 100% win rate in the 4-game stay at the club. After a terrible start to their season, West Ham United had sacked Allardyce. Considering I had started with Professional Footballer history, I didn't really see myself landing the job, especially as Alan Curbishley was out of a job and looking for work. To my surprise, and probably to the annoyance of Oxford F.C., I was offered the West Ham job until the end of the season where my performances would be reviewed. Needless to say, I snapped their hands off at the offer.
Expectations
When I got to West Ham, they had been in some terrible form, losing games to Cardiff, Brighton, Ipswich, Peterborough, Leicester and Hull amongst others. I set myself a target of at least play offs, considering the talent I had available, despite lingering around lower mid-table.
Current Squad
Unfortunately, I took this job late, so I missed the transfer window. This means I couldn't control the loss of some good players, and even worse, the signing of bad players.
Players In:
Nathan Delfouneso - Loan, 3 months
Nano - 300k
Vegard Forren - 2.8mil
Michael Tonge - 1.6mil
Jone Samuelson - 2.3mil
Players Out:
Jack Collison - 4.7mil
James Tomkins - 3.2mil
As you can see, two of my best players were allowed to leave for very little fees, and none of the players bought in had any real quality. Forren is probably the best centerback at the club now, but isn't the shade of Tomkins.
Goalkeepers:
Robert Green, Marek Stech, Ruud Boffin.
Rightbacks:
Guy Demel, Joey O'brien.
Leftbacks:
George McCartney, Herita Illunga.
Centerbacks:
Vegard Forren, Winston Reid, Abdulaye Faye, Matt Fry.
Right Midfielders:
David Bentley, Julient Faubert
Left Midfielders:
Matty Taylor, Nano
Center Midfielders:
Mark Noble, Kevin Nolan, Samuelson, Papa Bouba Diop.
Strikers:
Carlton Cole, Sam Baldock, John Carew, Fred Sears, Frank Nouble.
Will give a more in-depth view of the squad soon complete with screenshots.
