Your right, I saw this to and was able to dicate my own terms. This system is so much better than the last one. Very happy in this regard.
Well I managed to finish my first season on my ML and finished 11th in the Premier League, with a quarter final placing in the FA Cup. Not a bad season really bearing in mind I'm Stoke City and lacking any real quality in my team. It was a struggle, but very realistic, I had to fight hard and dig deep at times and ground out results. Final stats for the season were W10 L10 Drawn 24

.
I made a few panic buys as I couldnt seem to tempt any decent players so basically, in true lesser fashionable Premier League team style, had to look to pick up the scraps. I signed ex Coventry star Hadji, McFadden and Cisse and a couple of kids for the future that I'd found.
My biggest disappointment last season was my keeper Sorensen. He was happy and having an excellent run of form up until the January transfer window, when three clubs came in for him. Roma offered my £3.4 million, I rejected that. Lille then offered my £3.6 and I rejected that, then Lyon offered my £3.9 of which I rejected but then changed the terms and asked for £5.9. Lyon turned me down with that.
After I shattered Sorensen's dream move to Lyon and the lure of Champions League football, he was never the same player again. He was all of a sudden unhappy at Stoke, and his heart, which dicates his loyalty towards the club was showing as snapped in half.

After that, for the rest of the season he had a permanent dreaded 'Purple' arrow for every game. He really did spit his dummy out. The prick.
He never played another game for me all season as I played my young keeper instead. During the close season, Sorensen's heart was fixed, and no longer broken. But he had burnt his bridges with me, and I sold him to Ajax in the close season for £2.6 million. Good riddance.
This game is incredible.
