2. Eintracht Frankfurt €“ Bundesliga

Screen Shot 2013 11 05 At 16 11 38Transfer Budget: £0 Wage Budget: £12.68k The Good: A really exciting challenge of taking over a talented group of players and trying to emulate last season€™s astounding feat of sixth place, which saw them attain a Europe League spot for the new campaign. The Bad: Zilch money wise, which doesn€™t bode well for a defence in need of bolstering. The board room expectations could be too high after last season, and it threatens to be a classic case of a Europa campaign wearing down the squad in the league, making the possibility of relegation and the sack a stark reality. Advice: Play with wingers and make Alex Meier the focal point of the team behind the striker. Be bold and try to play expressive football with Takashi Inui and Stefan Aigner out wide, rather than shutting up shop in fear of defeat. Hold onto your best players and don€™t cop out by selling a few just to buy others unnecessarily. Best Suited To: The Pragmatic Manager €“ Someone who places importance in all competitions but knows where to rotate and when.
