I'm bored and I'm trying to get my posts up to 10 so I can see sigs and whatnot.

My current squad with Forest in the Premiership. 3rd year into the game. (2008/2009?)

---------------Heaton----------------

Frechaut--C. Davis--J. Evans--J. Bennett

Seol------Ghali-----B. Watson-----Nano

--------D. Riordan---A. Stokes--------

Bench/squad:
Paul Smith (gk)
Y. Bouchard (gk)*
James Perch (d/m rc)
Markus Heikkinen (dc)
Jesus Turiel (dm)
Kris Commons (AM LC)
William Stanger (AM/F RC)
Alex Baumjohann (AM L/R)
Danny Szetela (Utility)
Antoine Sibierski (AM/F)
Bernardo Romeo (ST)

*Bouchard may be my worst ever purchase in any FM/CM game. I already had two fine keepers in Heaton and Smith, and two promising youth keepers behind them, but Bouchard was free and seemed a little more polished then the others (plus he is french). However, his wages are 800k/year which is far and away the highest in the squad and he has been worse then Heaton and Smith. His physical attributes are poor at best and he is just clearly out of it. Let in 4 against Wigan and I actually subbed him out after the 4th I was so furious. I'll be trying desperately in January to get rid of him. *sigh*

Feel free to critique my team. I'm struggling at the moment, still above the drop zone but if I continue on my current run I'll be there sooner rather than later.

Tactics wise I'm playing direct ball, wingers getting forward, Watson is the AM, Ghali the DM. Backline is deep. Fullbacks stay put mostly. Any help would be appreciated.

Specifically regards to Ben Watson. I'm struggling to get the best out of him. He is a very talented passer of the ball, good technique, etc. For those of you who have used him or know his stats I'd welcome some help. I just haven't managed to get the best out of him in the Premiership. He was good in the Colaship, but he hasn't gone to the next level that I believe he can.

Danke.
