It was tough in the beginning but a tactical change or five and we found our stride. Next step is to go through CL Group Stages. Hopefully this same team can make that happen. Almost every player has someone interested in them and I am just waiting for bidding to start. Already had few bids for Ivancevic but they were under 40m so didn't even entertain them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Jef- Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) July, August 2024 Update Two persect months. Got a bit of a scare versus Partizan second leg and versus Slavia Prague second leg but made it through. The group is VERY tough. Probably second toughest. RBS is very good and has great squad.

-Jef- Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 Two Debutants Sep 2024 Couldn't be happier with these two. Lovric has been immaculate for me these 4.5 years he's been at the club scoring 68 league goals in 114 games and in total 87 goals in 172 games. Brnas on the other hand is youth academy product that's been nurtured into one of the best DLP in the country and this is his only second season with the first team. Amazing progress by Brnas.

-Jef- Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 Summer of 2024 Transfer Window Not that much of traffic in the club but lots of players were loaned out. Mostly to better competitions than I could provide in 2. HNL. IN Shapovalov was agreed many moons ago and didn't turn out as good as I expected. Bit disappointed. Barbieri was shown here before and is becoming a regular starter even. Bargain. Jerner Panikvar is one for the future and at 16 looks like an absolute beast of a striker. Will be nurtured in the II team for couple of years and then jump into first team. Oprea is a replacement for Ignat. One Romanian for another one. Left footed and already good enough to contend for first team. Blaz Horvat is another inexpensive buy but mostly for selling purposes. Will be on loans a lot. Marco Solomon is another striker that will be nurtured in youth setup due to his combination of skills. OUT Lots of loaned out players. Only sale is few posts up in Ignat.

-Jef- Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 National Team Talent Production Below Brnas there are Nikola Vlasic (Inter) and Mario Pasalic (Tottenham) and Marin Ljubic (Union Berlin). 9/23 players are mine basically 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Jef- Posted January 20, 2021 Author Share Posted January 20, 2021 Home Grown Player Count Oct 2024 We have 12 players as HGC, same as last year. As Blazevic retired and we brought in academy product Toni Silic. Kubista is to be HGC in a year so that will be 13 in 2025 and Oprea could be HGN in 2027 but who knows if he will stay at the club then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Jef- Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) Youth Intake Lad Alert Mar 2025 Definitely one for the future and will most likely be contending for the first team in couple more years. Arezo and Beljo staying means I cannot promote any youngsters. He is either footed, tall and good finisher. Bad concentration tho but I hope that can be improved with game time. He improved a lot.

Trying to develop my own youngsters and still trying to get the best results! I use either PRD training if there are no glaring holes in the game like JR, heading for center backs and if there are glaring hole I try to fix them to acceptable levels by using only Additional focus. This is how I set up my intensity levels with everyone in the club being on automatic Youth team has 4th option as double intensity as well. And I play youth players. I give players a chance. This was Cubelic at the start of the save. And he played a lot, except the injury ridden 2023/24 season when he tore his abdominal muscle and then broke his achilles tendon few weeks after recovering. This is his attributes and progress all-time. I think I had him on Roaming Playmaker training. Another example is someone I brought in winter of 2021, so first season winter transfer window. Not that big of a progress but is much more rounded player that fills AMC and AMR role beautifully. One more example.. I think I trained him on additional focus speed and after a year I switched to trequartista to bump his technique, dribbling, acc, agility, vision.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Jef- Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 February March Update 2025 Started second part of the season bit shaky and even lost the first spot to Gorica but been able to recoup the form with some tactical changes and now we're cruising to another title and possibly Cup as well. Staying as best offensively and defensively even though it seemed like we were very leaky but just didn't concede due to having a good keeper. Finances getting better and better.

So, if I get it right, you put as the standard training method the role they are gonna fulfill in the strata they gonna fulfil and if there is something wrong you double down through specific traing, got it! I never used them both because I remember reading that if you use aditional focus training the players may not like it and not improve, and that would be bad, but at the same time it is hard to have a full back or DM with good spread of attributes but with 5/6/7 on positioning or passing or concentration. And training schedule, any method to the madness? I've been using/adapting crusaderstar schedules and other personalized, but I think the coaches and buildings must be improved.

I use PRD or additional focus. Never both at the same time because then they focus on too many things at the same time and there is not growth. Also, things like concentration improve with game time. Training schedule was linked a page or two before this one in a comment to @karanhsingh, RDF schedule but I only use technical and versus top European teams I use balanced. For U19, II and First team. Also, mentoring I don't pay attention to positions, I just put mentors with good personality and determination in mentoring groups and then young lads with worse personality or determination. I have Resolute lad and since that's among the best in the team I did not put him in mentoring group. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Jef- Posted January 26, 2021 Author Share Posted January 26, 2021 Replacement...? Only issue with Aloisio is that he is not fast.
