Breaking news hits North London as legendary manager Arsene Wenger resigns as Arsenal's manager after many years in the job. However, he will remain at the club as the Head of Youth Development and was heavily involved in the appointment of a fresh, young manager Seanhrfc. Wenger had one final dream of Arsenal becoming a talent factory greater than that of La Masia and has set the following rules for the new manager to help achieve this:
- You may not play any player that is not HG at the club or is future eligible (i.e. will become in 2015) in any competitive match.
- You may sign any player that is home grown at the club.
- You can sign U18 players, as they will be able to become eligible (for extra difficulty, limit yourself to players of your clubs nationality only)
So there is my challenge! I am aiming to win the Premier League and Champions League fielding a side containing only home grown at club players, a philosophy I will impose from the onset. A total squad revamp will be needed and I am also going to play football in the way Arsenal played in the Early 2000s.
Next Update will be end of Pre-season, going over the tactics used and the transfers!
