A crap unreliable website, too! I know, like what is a reliable website in this day and age, but Transfer Market are as unreliable as it gets: I often wonder if they are affiliated to Transfer Rumours...

Bit in bold first: Don't be so stupid, of course he'll chip in with goals, but we need a Heskey type player who is able to lay on 4 or 5 chances a game for the main striker. Be a threat from set pieces etc. There's no point going with Cody & O'Donovan/Elliott as they will be bullied and offer us no out ball.
Fleck - Central attacking midfielder, tip of the diamond?? - Another Kevin Thornton?? Baker & Bell have rarely performed and are injured quite a lot, Elliott is left footed and will be deployed in McSheffrey's position.

But that is still classed as a striker!!
Fleck can play on the right, Elliott can play on the right, Baker and Bell can both play on the right. Enough cover.

I'd class it as a centre forward.

Nice, looks better than most of the defenders we've had since relegation in FM-although Ward was pretty good in it back in the day.

I think I'll get FM when it comes out. Should be able to get promoted with this squad on there

I see it as two very different roles, with only a small number able to play both roles effectively (Drogba for example).

Why are you two arguing about strikers in a thread about a defender we've signed?! "Is this the room for an argument?" :thinking about:

But scouted by Thorn. Thorn hasn't really made that many signings in his time as manager, so I presumed we'd include ones he scouted too

Seriously mate, I've been saying for ages that the only good thing about relegation is that FM & FIFA will be a right laugh getting us up from L1. Essentially, our games just got another season of value for City fans

Wrong, impressed him playing for Hartlepool against Colchester.

It's the usual case of anybody who is half-decent, Thorn is given the credit, anybody who's shite is blamed on a previous manager.

I wonder if we'll get a ridiculous budget on FIFA this season, we had like 4 million last season

No, it's a case of it being true in this instance! Don't make me use the "f" word..

Have spoken briefly to an acquaintance who is, in my opinion, the king of knowledge for France's Ligue 1. He's told me that Malaga is a hard worker in training, he's very vocal and a good leader. Didn't really have the pretty skillful side to his game that would have got him into Nice's 1st team but he's thought of highly. Was once a pretty big talent and has the strength and no nonsense approach that should really suit not just N-Power League 1 but English football in general.
Of course, it remains to be seen if it pans out like that but it seems promising. He also told me that to his knowledge he had drawn the attention of Premier League sides in the not too distant past.

I don't mind being proven wrong mate, but I fail to believe AB would bring a player to the club, and let him rot the way he let ROD rot! One of our most pointless signings in our history, and he followed AB pretty quickly to the club so I doubt it was his signing. Opinion only!

Games are never hard enough as City. We always get unrealistically high budgets-even when FM cut it back to under 100k, it's still not the "raise 4m+ on the transfer balance sheet each season" challenge that it should and so easily could be with a bit of tinkering with finance and board expectations.

Whereas Thorn made him a mainstay of the side, right?!?
ointlaugh:I'm also pretty sure-indeed 99.9% sure-that Aidy was clear in his interview that he had impressed him last season. Which is fair enough, some of his Hartlepool goals were real corkers.

So you know exactly of all our signings, who is down to Thorn, who to various other managers?

He gave him more of a chance last season, but ROD didn't take it. And he couldn't have given him that chance earlier when AT first took over because of how bad his fitness was from being made to rot!

Aidy had King and Lukas! Thorn had Jeffers or ROD...hmm.

This joker will be off following Thorn's every move soon as he is shown the door by the club.
