hmm, I must have been looking at a different player. I'm sure the guy I was looking at was some great defensive midfielder with great defensive attributes. Nevermind.
And ok, I'll do a bit of positioning training but is it really that important for an advanced forward?
And why are you paying him so much. My highest payed player is Rooney with 180,000 pounds p/w.
And at the start of the new season, I have signed Marek Hamsik for 24M pounds so now my central midfield is very strong with De Rossi and Hamsik with Fletcher as my first choice backup. Also signed a couple of young newgens, Christian Pagliuca for 1.4M, an attacking left-midfielder with 3.5 star potential, better than Nani. My other signing was a 16 yo striker, Alberto Tenconi for 1.7M who has 3.5 star potential. He'd probably make a very good deep lying forward so I'll try and train him to be like that. He just doesn't have the creativity though. Is creativity easy to train up? Also need to get his strength up as well. Phillipe Mexes of course, signed on a free transfer and I got rid of a few players, VDS signed as a goalkeeping coach, Scholes in particular left the club, Kuszczak went to Barca for 2M, Tunnicliffe to Villa for 750k and Hargreaves to Villa for 3.5M. My last signing is going to be a 17 yo central defender, Patryk Broz with 3.5 star potential, for 1.5M.

Just won the Community Shield on penalties after a 0-0 draw. Lampard took the first penalty and converted from the spot. Hamsik on debut was asked to take the first penalty for us and he managed to find the back of the net. The keepers were great though as Torres, Rooney, Drogba and Nani's shots were saved and it was 1-1 going into the 4th shot. Srna then blasted it over the top of the bar. De Rossi managed to put it home though to give us the lead. Malouda converted from the spot though and the other debutant, Mexes who had come off the bench and picked up a yellow card, would take the 5th and hopefully final spot kick. And he belted it into the top corner, and we took the Community Shield. Some nervous moments though. Andy Murray made his debut, coming off the bench but didn't really do much, made 2/2 passes and 1 key pass, drew one foul, called offside once, missed 4 headers and didn't make a single shot. He will learn from the experience though.

And signed Broz. He is actually 4 star potential as well
He's very slow though so that's where I will focus.
