value: 153 450 £, wage: 1 095 £
club: RTS Widzew Łódz, country: England

excellent pace, good defender
very good technique, adequate playmaker
formidable passing, average striker


I don’t know what to do with Louie Adamson – should I develop him as a winger or a defender?

Funnily enough I've been meaning to ask you that. I think he's a midfielder because of that passing.

I'd go winger.

As a rule if they've got Good Defending I like to keep them in the centre, because we don't have many midfielders who can tackle. I don't think he's going to have the Pace or Tech to play wing.

Louie Adamson will now get some pace training, and then I’ll see what’s next. I’m wondering if he can reach the level to play for England U21.

I think he's 4th or 5th for midfielders at that age.

If we win tomorrow it's France in the Druids Cup. If we lose, f**k knows.

Latvia I think.

Schweiz U21 - England U21 1:1

I'm not too unhappy with that. Decent result against a good team, strikers had an off day, stats say we were better.

Pot 3 and Latvia it is. Unlike last time I think we're probably favourites to win the trophy again.

Bloody 2-3 week injury to Illing-Junior.

Ouch, bloody injuries are so irritating I am sure they are worse this season!

So I have a question

Druids Cup starts tomorrow and is meant to be a U-20 tournament, and yet our opponents still have a significant number of their squad aged 21.

Now we could probably still win this game with the U-20s, but it will damage our ranking. Latvia are low ranking so we need to beat them by a big score just to maintain our ranking. If they play 21's and we only win by 1 or 2, we end up dropping.

My feeling right now is that if they've still got 21 year olds in their squad an hour before the game tomorrow, screw them. I'll bring the 21's back. You don't start a boxing match when the other person has clearly got a knife.

Is it the rules to play u21 players? If so message the opposition manager to ensure he is also playing the 20 yr olds.

good game Camus, keep it up.

Right I've rebuilt the squad after the debacle last weekend. I wouldn't normally do this but I've added a few of our best 18 year olds as we don't have a lot of strength in depth. I'd rather have them in the squad and send up the bat signal to their managers than waste a spot on a 20 year old who will never play.
