Finally all caught up moose. Great stuff you got going here. Carroll looks to be in great form but I wonder how the addition of Lacazette will affect him. With Jarvis, Lacazette, and Ravel you seem to be tailored to the counter attack which doesn't really suit Carroll although I guess he can hold up possession allowing others to get forward.

With those extra funds I'd say invest in a backup keeper since Jussi is getting up there in age. Maybe another youth scout depending on how long you're going to keep this going.

Thanks, appreciate you following! I agree upon playing a few games, it's definitely a different dynamic have Lacazette in the side with Carroll and something that we will have to adjust for both in terms of formation and tactics and some tinkering will definitely be done until the end of the season to see if this experiment will work.

Carroll has been unbelievable with his heading ability and close range finishing, so I definitely don't want him to be the odd man out but you're right in the way the team could be set up for the counter. We'll just have to see what ends up working out well.

In terms of the keeping, yeah I definitely agree, that will be something we will use some funds for to start of next season will be to pickup a backup for Adrian since Henderson won't cut it I think. Also, definitely want to pick up a second scout in the summer to keep some youth rolling in for as long as this keeps going.

Season 1, Episode 13: Taking a Turn for the Worst

Tough episode, especially that suspect PK against Spurs. Also, classic EA schedule shenanigans. 5 games in 10 days is crazy for a club not in European competition. Hell, it would be crazy for a club playing in Europe.
