And Willy Topp is the god of LLM.
I would have been inclined to agree if I didn't have to wait a whole fecking season for his wage demands to drop so I could sign him. Still pretty good when I signed him, although ended up becoming a super sub and he could only seem to score off the bench.
Best signing would have to be
Ibrahima Thiam on a free. Bournemouth in the first season have a transfer embargo until the end of October, only allowing you to offer players £150 p/week to sign for you. Pretty much all the decent players on the free market were snapped up long ago, but I stumbled across this guy who looked perfect for my set-up. He didn't have much pace, but I play with a lump up forward anyway (36 year old Steve Fletcher) so it looked like he could fit in perfectly.
Ended his first season smashing in 16 goals in 24(5) games in League 2, before going on to hit 24 goals in 42 games in League 1. Totally failed in the Championship, but for the lower leagues he is a God.
Don't have a decent screenie to show because I'm the 5th season now, but he's already hit 5 in 5 for Mansfield in League 2 at 32 years of age. Still got it!
