Right guys, thought I would start a new game with sunderland, i read kingers sunderland story and really wanted to start one.
Transfers
Ins
Di Maria - £4m
Vukcevic - £5.75m
Beckham - £475k
Shorey - Ln Fee £550k - terminated the loan after i got kaladze
Kaladze - Ln Fee £550k
Marco Aurelio Brito Dos Prazeres - £3.3m
Total - £14.75m, Said I would finish in the top half to get that amount of money.
Tried to sell O'Donovan and Murphy but nobody would take them.
Pretty happy with the signings, didn't bother signing a right back as I am going to give noworthy and beardsley a go. Di Maria and Vukcevic are great players going forward and suit my formation perfectly. Beckham was a bargain and is useful for his experience. Kaladze is good back-up for mccarthy or i might start him. Prazeres is a decent backup for cattermole and cana.
Friendlies went quite well
Kilmarnock W 4-3
Nurnberg W 2-0
MK Dons W 2-1
Rio Ave W 2-0
Santa Clara W 6-0
Vit Guimaraes W 2-1
Hopefully the season will go as well as the friendlies.
