Here it is, first foray into domestic cup action. In real life, we all know that Bradford knocked out Arsenal en route to their defeat to Swansea at Wembley. But, this is Football Manager. I could knock out Swansea here and now and win the Cup for myself!!! :D
Here is my starting 11 and subs. Again, it's a week match so resting some key players, but gives a chance for the younger ones like Tello, the Ox and Ademilson (I may just call him Adem. So much easier to remember).
Well, Let's get a show on this road to Wembley!!!
The Swans line up with Michu and Danny Graham (remember, this is the original update [I think] so no January switch for Graham). Also, no broken leg for Neil Taylor, and for some reason, no Chico Flores... but De Guzman and Jazz Richards are their midfield partnership with Routledge and Pablo Hernandez on the wings. Vorm in Goals.
Bould with the team talk: Go out there and impress me. No reaction.
Kick Off!
10m: After some sloppy possession by both teams, the boys are stringing some passes together nicely. Results in the Ox getting into some space, sprints into the box, only to have his shot saved by Vorm.
12m: Corner, Jenkinson header at goal, Vorm saves, ball is cleared.
45+2m (should only be 1m of extra time...): De Guzman standing over the ball. Goes for goal from 25 yards +, thought it was going over, and boy was I wrong! Dips in at the last moment. 1-0 Swansea. Half Time team talk changed.
HT: 1-0
56m: Players standing still, allowing Swansea to pass and move freely. Graham makes it 2-0. Seriously F*cked off right now
73m: Subs. 3. Santos, Tello, Adem off. Giroud, Nem and Emre Can on.
FT: 2-0. I lost. fuck
