shaunvamos Posted July 9, 2022 Author Share Posted July 9, 2022 Preseason 2029 A whole bunch of loans, but the big story here are the departures of 2 key players to the Rangers. They wanted to leave, so I didn't stop them, and we made a profit on them so I'm not too disappointed. Our replacements aren't as good, but they'll definitely do the job in our quest to return to the top 6. Goalkeeper Central Defender Left Wing Back Defensive Midfielder Central Midfielder A perfect run through the group stage of the League Cup, which bodes excellently.

shaunvamos Posted July 10, 2022 Author Share Posted July 10, 2022 An unbelievable, unprecedented end to the season as we win all of our remaining games and finish 3rd, with a likely Europa League playoff berth based on the Scottish Cup winner. Celtic are playing Motherwell, and I kinda want Motherwell to win to stick it to the two players that left for Rangers earlier this season, because we would be in Europe and they wouldn't.

shaunvamos Posted July 11, 2022 Author Share Posted July 11, 2022 2030 Preseason Ngonge heads to Germany, and he will be really hard to replace. What hurts more is that we also made a loss on a very good player. But hopefully the other players we've brought in can make up for it. Goalkeeper Central Defenders Wing Backs Central Midfielder We really picked up our results once the first team was sorted. It'd be easy for me to say I want 3rd again, but even with our upgrades I'm not sure how possible that will be. However, I do want European qualification.

The Overall rating is the value of the attribute formula out of 100 for the role they are selected in, with a rating of 100 denoting a "perfect" rating, which would probably consider them being among the elite of the elite. I haven't seen it happen too many times (only Mbappe as an Advanced Forward and van der Beek as a DLP), but next FM I'll be tweaking it to make 100 impossible to reach.

shaunvamos Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 December 2030 An extremely busy month, and we did really well to get through it undefeated. We have at least a 5 point gap to Hibernian, so things are looking good at this stage. We get a decent draw in Red Bull Salzburg, but I'm not sure how we'll go. Yeah, this is far from excellent. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We blew away Sporting to my surprise, and we're rewarded with the easiest team left in fellow Scottish side Hearts.

shaunvamos Posted July 13, 2022 Author Share Posted July 13, 2022 2031 Preseason We make a big sale for huge profit as Brayden Rapa departs after 114 league games with 60 goals, but he was being pushed out of the team anyway. Kyle Pearson joins us permanently after his strong loan spell with us last season, and whilst I don't like using so many loan players at this point of the save they're all too expensive to buy. They could become very expensive loans too if I don't play them due to the exorbitant amounts clubs want in case I don't use them.
