Lewis Walker is signed in March last season. I wanted more pace for my central defence as Nathan Bunce is getting old and lack of pace. I don’t know whether it is due to his high aggression, he can really cause a chaos in opposition defence during corner taking. I hope he can give me another supply of goals in set-piece.
Chris Black will occupy the right side midfield position, i am going to employ him as a winger as his physical attributes is quite good, but has very low crossing ability. I will advise him to cut inside more often.
Thurrock supporters should be very familiar with David King as he is my loan signing last season from MK dons. When he is transfer listed, i act quickly to snap him up for free. He is delighted to join us as he totally enjoy his loan spell during the time here and Thurrock is now listed as his favorite club. What i like about him is that he ia capable of playing in several position, but i will employ him as a central defender alongside Lewis Walker.
Eddie Oshodi is a loan signing from Watford, he is a young chap whom my coaching team believe that he is better than Phil Anderson, so he will be my first choice left-back this season. I hope he will enjoy his spell here.
A former player from St Albans, his team was relegated from the Blue Square South last season. I give him another shot in this level, i hope he will be able to prove himself he can make it.
Another of my loan signing, Harry Crawford is a striker loan from Southend. My coach team think he has the potential to be better than Paul Hakim. I hope he can supply me some goals this season.
Last but not least, Jack Jeffrey is a former West Ham player who is young and wants to prove himself. His attributes is pretty average for the technical, mental and physical side, but i hope he can develop well in training to become a good striker for my team.
Paul Hakim and Jack Jeffrey will be my first choice strikers for this season, Harry Crawford, Jamie Garry and David Knight as back-up.
I still hope to conclude a few signings whom can bring us to another level, until then i need to stick with what i have to compete in the Blue Square South. The players whom i bring hardly stir any surprise from the media, that’s why they predict us to finish 16th for this season. The odds is also firmly against us as we are placed 40-1 to win the Blue Square South. They predict that we will be in for a long relegation fight, but i had already proved them wrong last season, i will make them eat their words again.
In my next post, i will bring you my friendly results and hopefully some more signings.
Not having played with one of the lower league teams, it's hard for me to judge how good those signings are.
Will be interesting to see how they perform, and good luck for the season.
I hope they will do well for the team. As i always into lower league management,i find that it is much more difficult to sign good players compare to FM09. I can get the team promoted in my second season in FM09, hope i can do the same here. I am enjoying my game in FM10 so will keep on playing even if results does not go my way.
