Felipão has lifted the Copa Libertadores with Cruzeiro in 2011. In July 2011 he joined Torino for $12.25 million and made 52 league appearances and scored 20 goals.

Dune297 Posted August 14, 2011 Author Share Posted August 14, 2011 Season 5 Review Team Media Prediction - 16th Final Position - 10th Board Takeover - No Expectations - Attempt to Avoid Relegation Stadium Construction - No Season's Best Players Helge Sandvik - Impressive even in the premier division, with 11 clean sheets once again. Alexander Stølås - Pretty good for the 25 year old. 3 goals and 4 assists. Kenneth Ness (YP4) - Wasn't amazing this season, but was still a key player with 3 goals and 5 assists. Oddbjørn Skartun - Great season from Skartun. Was a major factor in staying up. 6 goals and 5 assists. Youth Erik Karlsrud (YP2) - Played a lot of matches, bad average rating. Wasn't great to say the least. Trond Misje (YP3) - A disgraceful season by Trond Misje given his potential. Only one goal and no assists. Kenneth Ness (YP4) - Pretty bad, but much better then his competition. Morten Krohn Haaland (YP5) - Finally decided to use this guy more often. 5 games, 1 assist. Must say he looked very good. Dag Vidar Hammari (YP6) - One star potential, when his contract runs out, he's gone. Vegard Simenstad (YP7) - Didn't play him, down to 1.5 star potential. He's gone after his contract runs out. Geir Stenerson (YP8) - 3 star potential, decent progression. Maybe he'll be used soon. Ragnar Langåker (YP9) - Potential up to 4 stars. Looking good, could be a great player if I figured out a good position for him since I don't use defensive mids. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Einar Oppheim (YP10) - 0.5 star potential. Out after his contract expires. Still looking for that one midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattSpurs94 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 For YP9, using the player position calculator for excel, It came out as ball winning midfielder. Not sure if this will help, but I'm going to agree with it. Put him on strength training, and he could be a bit useful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heige Sandvik - Another step up, and he played great. Expect more of the same from him. Kenneth Ness (YP4) - Wasn't great last year, but still an amazing player. Havard Høiland - Forgot to include him into the Season 4 update, so I'll include him here. He's been absolutely lethal for us. Youth Prospects - Season 6 Ronny Lie (YP11) (DC) - Report - Went from a 1.5 star rating to a 3.0 star rating. He came into the youth last year, not this year. Steffen Strøm (YP12) (ST) - Report - Another one that went from 1.5 stars to 3.0 stars. Looks like a decent striker, too bad I have so many. Great mentals. I'm thinking of retraining him as a winger or a midfielder. Any thoughts? Magnus Pilskog (YP13) (AMC/MC) - Report - First season, already rated 3.5 stars. Looks like he could be very good, and best of all, he's an MC! Friendlies Lillehammer 0-1 Vard Randaberg 0-2 Vard Decent start to the season in terms of friendlies.

davidmcain Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Strom looks class. Not sure if he would be any good in midfield though, great in the air, could be a target man, but that could mean you need to play two up front. 17 Determination is huge! Pilskog has some potential there too, Get him tutored though, mental's let him down big time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent rating, got a goal. Trond Misje (YP3) - Played him much more then Kenneth Ness (YP4). Performed alright. Kenneth Ness (YP4) - Didn't use him much this season. Was alright when I did in fact play him. Morten Krohn Haaland (YP5) - Another 5 appearances, decent, wasn't great. Vegard Simenstad (YP7) - Down to 1 star, waiting for his contract to expire. Geir Stenerson (YP8) - Potential down to 2.5 stars. Went another season without being played. Ragnar Langåker (YP9) - 4 star potential once again, promoted him to my first team. Played well despite not getting a goal or an assist. Ronny Lie (YP11) - Potential down to 2.5 stars. Decent attributes, might promote him to my first team soon. Steffen Strøm (YP12) - Down to 2.5 star potential. Still looks decent. Magnus Pilskog (YP13) - 3 star potential, might promote him to the first team soon. Running low on quality defenders nowadays.

Dune297 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 As I personally enjoyed writing up the last international update I did, I decided to do another one. This time, for the Euro Cup 2016. France are hosts as well as defending champions. After winning the Euro Cup 2012, World Cup 2014, and becoming runners up in the 2013 Confederations Cup, France looks to succeed once again. Group Stage Report No groups this year were extremely challenging, however, there are going to be some good matchups as World Cup Runners Up Germany and World Cup Quarter-finalists Portugal were drawn together. Italy and World Cup Semifinalists Switzerland were are matched up together. Group A Matches England 3-1 Romania Ukraine 3-1 Denmark Denmark 1-1 England Romania 1-2 Ukraine England 1-2 Ukraine Romania 1-1 Denmark Surprisingly, Ukraine was able to take the group over England as they won all three of their matches, including a 2-1 win over England. England got second, and third place wasn't distributed to this group because of the lack of points. Group A Group B Matches Hungary 0-5 Serbia Spain 0-1 Russia Russia 1-1 Hungary Serbia 0-4 Spain Hungary 0-6 Spain Serbia 2-2 Russia Russia was able to defeat Spain which helped them get a spot in the next round.

Group C Group D Matches Bosnia & Herz. 0-1 Slovakia Portugal 0-2 Germany Slovakia 0-1 Portugal Germany 3-1 Bosnia & Herz. Bosnia & Herz. 3-2 Portugal Slovakia 1-4 Germany Germany finished atop the group with 9 points. The other three spots were very close, as Bosnia & Herz grabbed a win against Portugal to give them a spot in the next round and Portugal was automatically given a spot finishing third with a greater goal difference. Group D Group E Matches Sweden 2-2 Belgium Holland 3-1 Poland Belgium 1-2 Holland Poland 0-2 Sweden Holland 1-1 Sweden Poland 0-3 Belgium Holland finished atop this group with 7 points, 2 wins and one draw.

Group E Group F Matches Bulgaria 1-1 Slovenia France 2-0 Croatia Croatia 2-1 Bulgaria Slovenia 1-2 France Bulgaria 0-3 France Slovenia 1-2 Croatia And the final group sees France get 9 points performing well. Croatia also got a promotion spot with 6 points, while the other two teams didn't get anything besides a lonesome point that takes both of them out of the competition. Group F Teams in the Second Round Russia Holland Spain Scotland Sweden Portugal Germany Switzerland Ukraine Croatia Serbia France England Italy Belgium Bosnia & Herz Next comes the second round!
