Yeah I think I will play him more next season as well as Said Arab. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Beckham Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 FC Metz Season 4 - January & February Results I had a great 2 months, winning 9 games. Diallo, Bamba, Fulgini all working hard. I am currently 5th, 1 point behind 4th place Nanthes. My squad in order of appearences. Diallo has now scored 28 goals in 34 games. What amazes me is he continues to not get picked for Senegal. I have no idea why he isn't getting picked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Beckham Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 My Youth Intake My Youth intake again has spoiled me with a decent intake. The 3 players that stand out are the following. Pierre Rousseau Another great right back produced, I can see him and Jahier fighting for that position for the next 10 years. Sylvian Boyer 6ft 2 Goalie who has already got 17 in Determination. He has the potential to be my number 1 Goalkeeper for many years. Khalid Afkir 6ft 3 defender, versatile, can play as right back, left back and central defender, with his height I will look to play him as a centre back.

Too many posts to comment on individually, but I'm pleased Diallo wants to stay at Metz, and sorry to see Arab getting injured. Sochaux have been storming it, so that's what I have to try and copy. Yup that was very unfortunate! I just hope his attributes don't take too much of a knock in the next few months. 8 hours ago, Ronaldo Beckham said: Lol well you got him in good form as he is banging them in for me now. 20 goals in 24 games. Diallo is back and wont be going anywhere. Wow he is a beast!! 8 hours ago, Ronaldo Beckham said: Yeah he will go down as a FC Metz legend by the time he retires. Also one of my youth prospects for a few seasons a go is performing very well. I present to you Paul Jahier Also Said Arab scored 2 goals on his debut in the cup game I lost 3-2 but he performed very well and will get more game time. Jahier looks good but I get very confused because you use real pics for new-gens!!

Great progress for you too! This is one of my gripes with FM, players get picked more for ability & reputation rather than performances. You will see the same from AI transfers as well, they will shell out huge money on under-performing players or even those who don't play purely on perceived ability & reputation.

Ronaldo Beckham Posted May 29, 2020 Author Share Posted May 29, 2020 FC Metz Season 4 Review Well I managed to get my highest end of season position so far with ending up 5th place in the league and getting European football again. I was a bit gutted as I wanted to get top 4 but I suppose 5th is better then 6th. Diallo had his best season for Metz banging in 41 goals in 47 games. Angelo Fulgini had another great season with 12 assists and 5 goals. On loan signing Claudio Gomes is going to be sorely missed after another fantastic season for me but Man City want him back and wont let me loan him back. Jonathan Bamba had a good season for me on the wing banging in 11 goals and getting 10 assists. This is the squad overall this season.

I might watch some FC Metz games if they are on telly in the UK but there aint much French League football broadcasted in the UK. My money would be on him going to either Leicester, Newcastle, West Ham (shudder) or Aston Villa if they stayed up. French footie is on BT Sport, well not anymore this season as it's been cancelled. I was reading my FM17 guide earlier, not bad predictions on Diallo & Sarr FC Metz (1000-1) So, we're left with the three teams that the media tip for relegation. As you can see from the club map, perhaps unsurprisingly these are the same three teams that were just promoted from Ligue 2. Metz finished 3rd last year, but have been given the best chance of survival - and I would be inclined to agree with that. This club has produced the likes of Cornet (Lyon) and Diafra Sakho (West Ham) in recent years, so have a decent record at least with strikers. Of the current crop, loan forward Mevlut Erdinc adds some top flight know-how to the team, and he will have young prospect Habib Diallo helping him out after a good goal ratio last season. Time will tell if the central midfield options of Renaud Cohade, Georges Mandjeck and Cheick Doukoure can do the job required, but winger Ismaila Sarr is a hot prospect to keep an eye on.

Ronaldo Beckham Posted May 29, 2020 Author Share Posted May 29, 2020 Well Guiagon wanted to go to a bigger club so I accepted that and I had offers for him from Everton,Sheff Utd and Monaco. I rejected the Monaco bid as I don't want to help my rivals but then Lyon come in for an offer of £21m for him, I asked my Chairman to negotiate for higher bid hoping it would put them off and then they come back with a £25m bid. I will sell him to Lyon cos I need the money as my finances aint too good, I am predicted to be -£30m by the end of next season so player sales are needed. I have also accepted a bid from Stoke for midfielder Teboho Mokoena as it was a decent deal and I fancied changing up my midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Beckham Posted May 29, 2020 Author Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Mokoena Gone So after 3 great seasons at FC Metz Teboho Mokoena has left to go to Stoke for a deal that is valued at £16.75m. I signed him for £500k so that is a great profit on the player. He was a great servant to the club but he needed to leave to progress his career and I wish him the best at Stoke.

Ronaldo Beckham Posted May 29, 2020 Author Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Guiagon Gone Parfait Guiagon has left the club after 3 great years at FC Metz including scoring a winning goal from a free kick in the Cup final. He will go down as a legend at Metz for doing that but again he was a player that needed to be moved on for his career. He went to Lyon which I was annoyed at but they gave me the best offer for him and I need the money. He went for £25m which is another player who I sold for great profit as I only signed him for £210k. I forgot that African Stars get 40% on the profit from the transfers. A nice windfall for them with £7.75m going in their bank account. I am glad I am helping African football. Hopefully they will invest it in better youth facilities. My bank balance is very nice now with £35m in the bank. Better financial projection as well. Edited May 29, 2020 by Ronaldo Beckham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
