ManUtd1 Posted July 10, 2017 Author Share Posted July 10, 2017 Sene sovya caba'donde ain dovienya FK Partizan Beograd December 2060 Mini-Update The early-season goodwill has long been spent. Our poor run of form in late November through early December didn't help either. Fortunately, Crvena Zvezda has struggled these past few weeks. Absent that, they'd be out of sight. As it is Cukaricki leap-frogged both of us. Our poor form encompassed the end of the Europa League Group Stage -- a poor loss at home to the Portuguese, and a drubbing in Istanbul. We go through as Group winners, but the aura of invincibility -- such as it existed -- has been well and truly dispelled. Let's not kid ourselves, though. This is a side that has done well domestically (despite a rough few years), and has been a consistent presence at the group stages of European competitions (and beyond). We're not overperforming. And not underperforming, either. The squad has started to show some respect, though, given that I've proven to not be a complete idiot. With nearly 2 months until our next competitive match (in Moscow, no less), there's some time to kill. We need to start working our new signings into the squad, and get everyone on the same page again (after spending the last 6 months getting there...). Six months? That's all it has been, eh? I can't quite tell if that feels too long...or too short. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManUtd1 Posted July 10, 2017 Author Share Posted July 10, 2017 A quick glance at Europe...Real Madrid are looking to win their 4th straight title in Spain, while Monaco have a slight advantage to stop Rennes from winning their 8th straight Ligue 1 title. Frankfurt, Fiorentina and Brugge are all struggling. Four potentially-eligible teams remain in the Champions League -- Leipzig, Anderlecht, Rennes and Dijon (!)...turns out Dijon had a tycoon takeover in 2052 that I didn't notice. Dijon finished 2nd in Ligue 1 last year (and reached the CL knockout round), and seem to be yet ANOTHER emerging force in France. Cesario Balde (from Hakan's Brugge days) leads the line for Le DFCO.

Telleus' playing career was modest and largely unremarkable, his only claim to fame being that "one time, he hacked the **** out of Joey Barton" during a pre-season friendly with Telleus' amateur side in Malmo. "Talk ****, get kicked," was all Telleus would say about the incident in his later years. There is, however, little corroborating evidence. Barton has steadfastly refused comment for decades. From there, Telleus ventured onto the terraces, where he quickly was promoted within the ABBA-influenced Malmo FF Ultras group, known as the Super Troupers, given his commanding presence and perfect pitch. Telleus' tactical blog, "Inverting The Swede" was notable in his pre-managerial days not just for a strong love of the game, but also his creative use of profanity to colorfully punctuate key points of emphasis and masterful use of MS-Paint to recreate critical moments in matches. As to the latter, a high-definition rendering of Telleus' depiction of Cristiano Ronaldo frolicking on the sidelines at the 2016 European Championship final hangs, to this day, at Ronaldo's footballing museum in Madeira. It is truly the stuff of lore, but Hakan always maintained that he was inspired to work towards his coaching badges based on a fever-dream, involving an unheralded American manger taking Malmo to the Champions League title.

Just now, noikeee said: Bit inconsistent in the Serbian league (well, for dad's incredibly high standards). Could it be that the overload tactics are proving not stable enough? Naw -- I don't think it's the tactic. I think it boils down to two factors: we weren't fluid on the tactics until recently, and the squad isn't ready to play them just yet. As to the latter, I'm making moves to get the pieces in place...and then it should just be a matter of time. We're controlling matches and dropping silly points, which (while frustrating) seems to be simply a quality issue. We'll get there.

ManUtd1 Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 As tempted as I am to complete the squad purge a few more players, I think my transfer business is done for the winter. Additional older players have been moved on, with a bevy of youngsters added to the mix. I did miss out on several players, but the one that hurts this most is this South African lad that I wanted to refine for a "central winger" role. He opted for Anderlecht instead of Belgrade...little ****. This summer, Boumsong, Mura and Anastasi are going to be out the door. Hadzic and Peralovic may follow them. The latter two are good enough to stay, but I've got youth that are more promising that will need the minutes to develop. Frankly, if I were to get a good offer for any of these 5 tomorrow, I would probably accept it. I'll do a full squad review after my transfer business is complete this summer, as the squad will be lined up at that point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManUtd1 Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 You've been snooping through my notes, @HawkAussie! This would be great fun, and it's something I've thought of -- opening up eligibility to club sides who've also reached but lost another European Cup final (the Europa League or Cup Winners' Cup; Intertoto doesn't count, of course). The problems I've considered are mainly practical - the sheer number of leagues and clubs, and how to determine eligibility going forward once the save starts. For example, if Partizan win the Europa League, are they out? What if Sevilla reach the CL final but lose...are they now eligible? What about Fiorentina, who've historically won the EL but lost a CL final? I've considered a hybrid - only winning the CL removes a side from eligibility. So, in the examples above, Partizan and Fiorentina would remain eligible. Sevilla's example is less clear...does a loss in the CL final in-game control, or do the Europa League wins disqualify them? I'm inclined to say the former... But, if that's the case, why not make all clubs who've reached the Europa or CWC final eligible, but haven't won the CL eligible? I also like the sound of that, but the number of clubs grows very, very quickly, to the point that having eligibility criteria almost seems silly. There are a whole bunch of ways to do this, and there is no doubting that any set of "rules" would still see a wide variety of eligible clubs, just based on the historical record alone. So...err...yeah. I haven't thought about this. Much... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
