Coruxo FM 11 : The Halfway Point

Hi everyone!

So here is the halfway point in my season well just slightly over as I will include the January transfers as well, but I will post Januaries results in my next update to keep everything in a nice order!!

So lets have a look at the season so far :

———————————————

August & September Results

So the month began really well as my new signing Ibrahimovic took only two minutes to open his Coruxo tally with a fine freekick, Henrique latched onto two passes from him aswell so the perfect start for my ageing frontman. An own goal was good enough to seal a win over Getafe then an away defeat at Tenerife.

That followed a boring but decent point against Villarreal and then a defeat away at Real Madrid which was expected!

October Results

October was the month for the gamble that was Ibrahimovic, a stunning 20 yard strike was enough to steal a point against Barcelona to haunt his former club. He then struck twice against Sevilla and his strike partner Henrique also scored twice as we demolished them away from home.

Bad luck struk as we gave away two penalties at home to Sporting both of which should not have been given but Ibrah and Valiente scored in a narrow defeat.

November Results

November was up and down! It began really well as we beat Zaragoza 5-2 with their own goalkeeper scoring two own goals! Denilson, Galindo and the impressive Henrique completed a big win for my team. Another decent home point against Atletico then a shambles at Almeria ended in a four one defeat.

December Results

The amount of games caught up on Ibrahimovic so he was injured for the whole of December but his replacement wasnt too bad as Nenem struck twice against Bilbao to give us a comfortable home win. A narrow win next at Racing as Henrique struck four minutes from time to seal a fantastic away win, and another good home point against Espanyol completed a very good month for my team.

The League Table

So we are in eighth position which isnt too bad we are improving so am hopefull of finishing top 12. I dont think we will have enough to grab a top 8 spot but as long as we survive I will be more than happy with that! They say it takes three years to fully establish yourself in the higher league so from that we are right on course.

The January Transfers

So its probably easiest to post my January transfers now then I can just post the results next time round. I made a few signings including a record transfer for my club! I also signed one of most favourite players so was very happy with the window!!

Lets have a look at the new players and the players out :

Players Out

So I sold my pretty poor right back Medina to Coventry and I also sold Sunny who just wasnt good enough in la liga. I loaned out Alcacer, Galindo and Nenem but I must have cut that transfer out by mistake! Udinese offered a loan fee of one million and they will pay all his wages so I accepted! I also sold Zerbini a fantastic player for me, but he was unhappy.

Players In

Hernan Basualdo

My first signing off three was Basualdo from Argentina and I payed £775k. He was very highly rated by my scout so I brought him to Coruxo, he is a central midfield player who can also play as a defensive midfileder if need be.

Pedro!

Yay! Pedro! One of my favourite players at Barcelona so shame on them for simply releasing him on a free transfer. So I got him for nothing and he is now worth over £4 million he is a 28 but he has some great stats and I like him! I will create a Barca style formation to get the best out of him and he is so good looking too! :)

Emiliano Sena

So here is the record breaker as I payed a massive £7.5 million for him, he is 24 and a striker he was also at the same team as Basualdo but he has been loaned out to Spanish clubs and had a good spells at Villarreal and Zaragoza when he was on loan their. The price is big for a club like mine but am sure he will worth the money so have high hopes for him!

So thats it! Am very happy with how things are going so far and am very very happy with my new players! (especially Pedro!) and with them am hoping now we can finish top 10. I know I said earlier we may struggle to do that but with Sena and Pedro I believe we have two world class players.

Just to let you know I will posting an update to my other story before I post again on my Coruxo one so for those who havent read it so far you can click the link to catch up. It is fourteen season’s long so it may take a bit of reading but it has loads of pictures to help you out!

I will hold off posting for a few days in order for people to read and to catch up so until then bye for now!
