For the time being i am just going to be posting peoples profiles that are playing really well or achieve something special. The reason being if i post 1 persons profile i will have to post everyone and it is just too time consumming. Your player is playing a major role in the reserves so i'm sure his profile will feature soon enough.
Most people i know who have the game like it. The only real downsides i can see are that you can ony see 2D dots moving around and not 3D people on match days, and also if you have a low-end computer the whole thing can run quite slowly. If your keen on management games i would highly reccomend it because it has a huge range of options, and things are unpredictable so you always have different circumstances to react to. I particulary like that there are so many options to choose involving tactics, you can really get the team playing exactly how you want them too.

Back to the game now. I quickly played a few games just before.
INJURY UPDATE: No injuries, everyone has recovered completely
INTERNATIONALS: About 3/4's of the team have been called up to their respective nations for either friendlies or word cup qualifiers. I tend to let players go just about every time they are called up, so they stay happy and they have more chance of being recalled.
LEAGUE NEWS: Chelsea have started strongly and won their first 4 matches. Man Utd are close behind with Middesbrough and Planetcricket suprise high-flyers.
TRANSFERS: There has been a flurry of transfers in the EPL. Quim went to Middesbrough, which left Schwarzer unhappy and he transferred to Blackburn.
The most notable transfer was Esteban Cambiasso to Manchester United for 10.5M.
CUP NEWS: Planetcricket has been drawn against Millwal in the leauge cup. The match will be played at Millwal on he 21st of September.
TRAINING REPORT: Hasi, Bilal and Abhas Gupta all trained poorly over the last month in defence training.
Under 18's drew 0-0 with Huddersfield.
Left Hander was pronunced MOM
They are still to register a win and occupy 3rd last on the ladder.
West Brom vs Planetcricket at West Brom (28/8)
For this match PC changed their formation slightly with Macdonald moving to CAM and Bach moving to DCM.
Final Score: West Brom (2) drew with Planetcricket (2)
Goals: Oliveras (OG), Shaun Briggs (Penalty)
Best: Justin Allison
A bit of luck went PC's way to get the 2 goals but they had their fair share of possesion and deserved to get something. A good al round performance, Allison was the only standout, took the defenders on and made some dangerous crosses.
A fair resut for both sides.
League Position: 5th
Newcastle Reserves vs Planetcricket Reserves at Newcastle (31/8)
Final Score: Newcastle (3) defeated PC (2)
Goals: Hardie, Bilal
Best: Bilal, Steve Plummer
It was a good effort against top opposition. Newcastle had Amobi and Shearer playing among others. Newcaste dominated play and good keeping from Phil Rogers stopped them from scoring several times.
There were a handful of good players but also a few bad ones.
League Position: 10th (out of 14)
Chapmandinho was runner-up for best young player in the league for August.
Because of this achievement i will post his profile:
Since the first team have played a few games now i will post a few of the teams stats. The players are ranked in order of average league rating:
