January 2067
Transfer window opened this month, and I brought in a couple of new players to (hopefully) strengthen the squad.
First up, we have Stefano Pepe, a German centre half. I actually signed him in December, and he played in the cup win over Dudelange, but I couldn't register him for league games until this month. He's a relatively ok centre back, good positioning and marking, very strong and a good leader on the pitch. He's pretty poor in the air though, and a very bad footballer when in possession, but he should do fine. At any rate, he gives me more depth.
Lastly, we have Steven Mooney, a Northern Irish central midfielder. He's good on the ball, not so good off it, but he should do well for me. Centre midfield has been a pretty weak area of my team, so good to have him.
The main thing - genuinely crucial to our season - is that noone tried to sign MIke Thill, which I was expecting. Thank f**k for that.
Another good month, we were 2-0 within ten minutes against Mondorf but fought back to secure a draw, and we were comprehensive in all of our other games. A particular highlight was dishing out a complete thrashing against Differdange, who are one of the teams not far behind us in the league. Moritz Boning also hit a lovely run of form.
The draw put us a couple of points behind Dudelange, but they then lost against Racing and so we're now a point ahead at the top.
Eight games to go.
