I don't know of any Copa on Wigan. What's his full name?

Great victory Their goal was directly from a freekick. Could have actually won this...

you won 1-1

Another "victory"!! This time I played 10 minutes without a striker.

His name is Copa. He is the Ivory Coast goalkeeper and plays for Lokeren.

I think he ment you should buy Copa (Boubacar Barry) the Ivorian Keeper

Now you won't win those last 6 games.

There goes 1...

I hope I get over £40M in transfer budget next season. That way I can buy Aguero thanks to his release clause. But I doubt he would want to sign anyways.

I'm facing Chelsea in the FA Cup semi next. Wish me luck.

You didn't wish me luck.

Good luck.

It looks like I will finish 7th unless Liverpool screw up some more.

You may get Europa League depending on who wins the FA Cup

I'm too tired to post images. So here are the latest results...

Stoke 1-2 Wigan: Toni is fouled in the box and Surgosson scores. Then Toni scores the winner in the 90th minute.

West Brom 6-1 Wigan: Everyone, especially Caldwell

Wigan 1-1 Swansea: Totally dominated the match but Caldwell scores an own goal to give Swansea the equalizer. I dropped him for the next match.

Norwich 2-0 Wigan: Everton score in the last minute to beat Arsenal and take the last Europa League place.

Aston Villa 2-2 Wigan: Bent scores the equalizer for Aston Villa in the 92nd minute to keep Aston Villa from relegation. So I finish 8th and 3 points away from a Europa League place. I consider the season a failure. I'm considering leaving them and finding a better next season.

So who should I join? Liverpool sacked their manager so they are a possibility.

Well fuck you then! I'm going to stay with Wigan and beat the shit out of you! They are lucky I didn't finish higher than them this season.

8th is disappointing for Wigan?

It's not disappointing for Wigan, but I feel like I failed. I was so close to a place in Europe and we screwed in matches we should have won. I really need to improve my defense and goalkeeper for next season.

I'll start tapping up players from Liverpool.

This guy nailed it.

2012/2013 Season Preview

Transfers


Pre-Season Friendlies

Wigan 0-1 FC Porto
Wigan 4-0 Atletico Madrid
Burnley 3-2 Wigan
Wigan 2-0 ManUtd Reserves
Crystal Palace 1-2 Wigan
Leicester 1-3 Wigan
Brentford 0-0 Wigan
Wigan 3-2 CSKA Moscow

Shikabala has looked like the most promising of my new signings. We put in some great performances against stronger teams that play in the Champions League, so that's promising.

Top Scorer: McCarthy (5)
Top Assists: Shikabala (5)
Highest Rating: Shikabala (7.74)

Expectations

The expectation for this season is to at least qualify for the Europa League (at least 7th place in the EPL). WIth the new signings and the performances in the pre-season friendlies, I expect the team to easily qualify. I will asses the team's performance at mid-season. There is a possibility we might even fight for a Champions League spot.

Transfer Budget (Remaining): £17M (£7M)
Wage Budget (Remaining): £27M (£0M)

Good start to the season. The bad thing is both my starting Wings got injured during the game. Moses is out for 3-4 months and Shikabala will be back for the next game. Moses is so injury prone.

I got Sessegnon on loan for the season to replace Moses.

You released Jordi Gomez

Rightfully so, he would of got you European football if you had of gave him playing time Was he on high wages?

I don't remember what his wages were. Sunderland offered me to Sessegnon, but I decided not to take him until Moses got injured.

On to the next round...
