Hi everyone, todays post will rap up season 6 of my Bury story. As you know, we would have needed to win nearly all of our games to achieve a top 4 place, which enables us to play in the Champions League.
Premier League Results
The one thing I hate about my team is, we hardly beat the ‘big teams’. As you can see, we lost to Liverpool and Chelsea in this period. We won all the winnable games, but did we beat our 5th position in the league of ast season?
We finished two place worse than last season. We scored 30 goals less than last season — Adebayor doesn’t seem the player he was in his first season for the club. He keeps picking up niggling injuries. Our defence was much better! 20 goals conceded less than last season. If we had this defence last season, we could have challenged for the title! As you can see, our defence was the third best this season. All we need now, is a monster striker.
FA CUP
After beating Liverpool in the 4th round, we made our encounter vs West Ham much more difficult than it should have been, eventually beating them on penallties. We lost in the semi final against Chelsea, by a late goal from Giampaulo Pazzini.
Average Ratings
Petr Lastuvka was our best player this season, no doubt. 23 assists is amazing! Mathias Pedersen, our new defender was a long way off 1st as he came second. Nicklas Pedersen was our leading goalscorer this year with 18.
Lastly a job offer from Man City, which I rejected. I am 100% commited to Bury FC.
