Hanabishi United - A brief look

Although our 4-4-1-1 formation proves to be quite successful in youth comps it failed to provide any consistency in senior scene. Thus the money generated from earlier sales were pumped into acquiring players fit for 4-6-0 formation, more than 13mils worth!

I gather it will be one hell of a nightmare at the end of next season when almost everyone's contracts are up for renewal! I will also need to decide soon if I should get rid of my remaining youth, most of whom are below 18yrs old, and invest on another quality player, Rafael Carioca perhaps?
