I managed to drag myself up to Division 3 after what seemed like an eternity in Division 4. After losing the first two matches, went unbeaten for the remaining eight games, with 4 wins and 4 draws.
Team has slowly evolved and changed but at present is this in a false 9:
PotM Son - Mata - Tello
Schweinsteiger - Borja Valero
IF N'Zonzi
Clichy - Mangala - Rami - Mario Gaspar
Diego Alves
Rami and Mata have been there since the start, as has N'Zonzi, although I have upgraded to his IF now. Will be changing Mata to Roberto Firmino as he has started to be slightly less effective in Division 4 due to his lack of strength. Gets bullied more now, although he has still been performing. Of course this will mean more changes, but pretty certain N'Zonzi stay.
Have used a number of players in a constantly changing cup/fitness team. At present I have a 4231 with IF Al Soma, IF Carlos Eduardo and IF Sule. That has been fun to use in the 5 games it has played. Al Soma is pretty good!
