4th season with Villarreal is done, I finished 8th. Pretty bad, right? Not even Europa. And how its supposed to be better when my players have Teamwork 1. But, I trained Tactics a lot and this part is now improving rapidly. All players have Teamwork higher then 55. At least something good.
Despite bad season, Shimzu (21) was picked for the Best 11 of the season, on the position RMF. His overall is *93. Milan, PSG, Sporting, Manchester United, Barcelona and many others are watching him. I already received few offers, but only one that is worth mentioning came from PSG, it was 25 millions worth contract with 4 millions salary. I rejected, as I want to build my team on him and he is more then needed if I want to stand back on my feets.
I sent 2 two players on 1 year loan and earned 7 millions for that move. LMF Luciano (19) *82 will be at Valencia, and CMF Anderson (24) *80 will be at Shakhtar Donetsk this season. Those two players were in my first 11, but I decided to loan them as I signed young replacements for them. AMF Ballack (17) and LMF R. Gardner (17). Gardner is Jamaican, and yes he is very fast.
I also don't like Ballack, but I thought that not singing a player who is 17 years old, free, and have *70, plus few special abilities, is crazy. For 3-4 years I assume he'll be great player.
I have 35 millions budget available. So, My signings for now:
- SS/CF/AMF Rossi (28) *86 - 14 millions
- CB Jemal (28) *84
- LMF R. Gardner (17) *69 - Player who can play on many positions
- AMF/CMF Ballack (17) *70
Favorite list:
- Ramsey
- Chamberlain
- Wilshere
- Romeu
- Lucas
- Henderson
- Marchena (17)
- R Ferdinand (17)
- Eriksen
- Farinos (19) *98

As you see this is very, very young team, with amazing potential. Many of them can play on multiple positions. Board wasn't pissed much, actuall they gave me support and next mission is Europa, but I'll try to go further then that. Transfer window is still opened, I'll try to sell some players. And I released few older players like Giersen, Ruskin etc.
Best 11 for next season
:
Left side is a bit weaker, but Tafforreau is amazing, and Gardner should do fine. So, with great Teamwork now, lets try to do something.
