Training

[MrB]

No pops for me this week (none expected) but a form bonanza, +12/-5 and none of the -5 were first teamers. Means my first XI playing Sunday will be 10 higher than it would have been. Woo hoo!

Back to 5-4-1 defensive this week as we look to pick up a point to get our season on the move.

A 17 and 18 year old popped to excellent playmaking.

[Matt the Shrimp]

Couple of pops (I think) young strikers, one to formid, one to excellent.

However, the form monkey has paid a visit and has given me a thorough kicking. Form is diabolical across the squad.

[Birri]

2 pops for me one excellent and one solid http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Barmy Army]

No pops

Further she-ite form. Could it be linked to my coach being injured? (I know it shouldn't be, but since he's been injured form has been crap)

[Kent Shrimper]

no i was reading the England fed and there was a form bug within the game but it will even itself out as it has now been fixed

[Bucks_blue]

I got some much needed form rises across the board. Plus a defensive pop to solid. I only bought him a week ago!! http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Wahaaaaaaaaay the moment I've been waiting for for ages. My 20 yo def finally pops to formidable. Due to make somewhere between £575 and £650K on him which will put me firmly in the black and enables me to start the rebuild for next season as long as I use this money wisely.

Oddly enough one of my forwards received a defence pop this week.

[Barmy Army]

I tell a lie, one of my IMs popped to outstanding. http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[MrB]

No pops but form +8/-2. We finally have a first team back and look like set for a new high in stars on Sunday (not hatstats though as we're playing 5-3-2!).

[blues_r_best]

No pops but signed a new 17 year old who has excellent playmaking and solid leadership for £400,000.

[MrB]

Shame he wasn't a youth pull otherwise that would have been a bargain. Still should be well into formidable by the end of the season anyway, I assume by his TSI that his stamina is a bit ropey?

Great week for me with two defensive pops to solid and one to passable http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

One of the solids is a 20yo so I'm outing him and trying to get a 17yo replacement for less, may have to go down to inadequate defence.

Currently playing a game of chicken for a 17yo wing-back (passable wing and defence). I'm on the point of baling out. Usually when I do this I end up paying well over the odds coz the other bidder drops out first. http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/laugh.gif

[Matt the Shrimp]

Form monkey is still giving me a kicking. One forward down to wretched, new keeper down to wretched...

It's poor, same as my other 17 year old excellent, so a bit of stamina training over pre-season will be needed

[GNH]

Form is shocking hardly anyone above passable, and most under http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

Some more defensive pops however, now have 5 defenders who are at least formidable and 17/18 years old http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/blues.gif
