The dark gods offer DC the chance of 110% effort (we're currently only getting 100%) from each player, but they demand a sacrifice in return. The coaching staff will need to paint a pentagram in the centre circle, at midnight a player will have his throat cut and be bled till he dies while arcane rites are being enacted.
So, the question is, who do you sacrifice? The better the player the more likely you are to appease the gods. If you try to fob them off with a player who isn't getting in the team much, they will see through this as not a genuine sacrifice and wreak bloody vengeance on the whole squad.
And as a supplementary question, we also have a daemonic egg. This needs to be implanted in a victim (anally) and left to grow for ten weeks. The victim is bed-ridden for that time, and unable to play any part in the squad. But at the end of that time he gives birth to a doppelganger who is exactly like him (and registered with the FA), so we will be able to play two versions of that player during the crucial run-in. Who do we implant with daemonic eggs?
Also, we can make a potion from the blood of one of the players. We need to bleed that player under a full moon while reading the Laws of the Game and brandishing red and yellow cards towards the heavens. One player (who will die, of course) gives 8 one-pint potions, that will imbue the drinker with all the sacrificed player's football attributes for one hour (usually to be drunk at half time during crucial matches). Who do we bleed for the potions?
Sacrifice Taylor just as we get the money.
Put the egg in Puddy, when he comes back play both in goal at the same time unless part three works.
Bleed Mildy, give the blood to Macca.
Simples.
