PART 2 of the Rex Stone story.








Things in the Schalke squad were going very smoothly. 7 signings had completed and everyone was fitting in just fine. The early win of the German Cup over Bayern was a huge lift in spirit for the squad and its young, underrated manager, Rex Stone. Rex Stone's early success brought the likes of Andrey Arshavin and well respected player Rivaldo and 5 youngsters to the club.

American Youngster: Jozy Altidore (Loaned out to Benifica)
French Youngster: Henri Saivet (aka David N'Gog)
French Youngster: Sahko
Brazilian Youngster: Alex
Hungarian Youngster: Kristian Nemeth (Loan from Liverpool)


They all developed very well and worked well together. The main squad had many accomplishments throughout the entire year. It was a nail-bitting season for Rex Stone. Pressure on him became fierce until the last whistle. He was under constant bombardment for poor results in the First Devision yet achieving 1st place in the German Cup and Domestic Cup and advancing all the way to the Semi Finals in the EURO Cup until an unexpected lose to Valencia. He was only able to manage a 3rd place position in the end of the season.


Amounting pressure began for Rex Stone during preseason to sign more promising players. He was able to sign Jan Kromkamp and Mexican Goalkeeper Alamo. He attempted very high signings such as Micheal Mancienne, Vennegor of H. and Huntlaar. He was beat in just about every race for players. Bayern Munich making the most successful signings such as Qualigerella. When the preseason began they won all 3 games, then when the season started, Rex Stone led the team to 2 straight victories. During week 4 Rex Stone's shoulders could no longer take the pressure of Schalke's high expectations. When offered a contract to 18th placed Tottenham, Rex Stone took his leave. It was later found out that Rex Stone's 2 victories, were the only 2 wins for the entire season for Schalke. They were relegated that season.




Tottenham Story = The Success of the Spurs




Rex Stone arrived at a very unorganized Tottenham on Tuesday afternoon. The very first thing he did was request a budget, and sell 9 players. He received a 24.6 million euro transfer budget and got to work. He signed Modric as a free agent after he left Man. City after his first year. Gomes the stunning Brazilian goalkeeper. dos Santos from Fiorentina for a whooping 18mil. And finally David Bentley, the unhappy player was in the last year of his contract, and was expecting a higher base salary. Tottenham quenched his thirst by making him the 4th highest paid player on the team.




Rex Stone was ready for his first match. And it was thought to be the same for the team, but unfortunately it wasn't. The first 2 games went terrific. 3 - 0 and 2 - 1 wins over Blackburn and West Ham. But the following games weren't so pretty. A stunning 4 - 3 lose to Sunderland's amazing comeback began the win drought. Then a 3 - 2 lose, followed by a 2 - 2 draw and a 3 - 0 lose. Rex Stone believes there is an unbalance in the playing style and is going to call a team meeting to sort out the poor playing by the players. Hopefully his team can regain composure for a Premier League title.

No you just signed Saivet because N'Gog isn't in the game. No AKA to it. Saivet is better in the game anyways. N'Gog never becomes anything special.

should be David N'Gog. Plays for Paris Saint-Germain. Probably in the reserves or u18's. Also check France u19's for him.
