This was the year when my strategy of signing promising young players started to pay off. Moses Reed was used sparingly in the previous campaign, but became a key player this time around, making 39 league appearances despite being just 18 when the season started. He was mainly used as a left back, but can also play in the centre.
Then there is Sherman Andrés Cárdenas, a 75k signing who had just turned 18 at the start of the season. Due to his youth and frequent international games for Columbia (he got his first cap at just 16), he was used in rotation with Sweeney, but quickly began to outshine the Englishman, with 9 goals and 6 assists from 30 league appearances. His stats (to be posted later) are amazing. I'd be interested to hear how good he is on FM08.
Meanwhile...
Oldham and Leeds reach the Premiership, and Sven Goran Eriksson leaves the England manager's job after winning the World Cup and the European Championships. He is replaced by Sam Allardyce.

He is a player i remember very well from FM2006 and FM2007 but to be honest i havent looked for him on 2008. I remember reading somewhere recently that he is still really good though. When i get the chance to play again i will find him and post a screenshot for you.
Sorry the above comment is about Sherman Cardenas. Neglected to mention it ha ha.
