Popular Post DazRTaylor Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 (edited) End of Season Review Season 2045/46 Macclesfield Season Summary A glorious campaign in the league saw the club immediately bounce back as Championship winners. The fact we were dreadful in both cups is irrelevant. Season Details League Table - We were superb throughout the season and we never looked back after hitting the top halfway through the season. League Fixtures 1 & 2 - Winning became a habit. F. A. Cup - A poor performance at home to top flight Derby County saw the club eliminated at the third round stage, the round we entered the competition. Carabao Cup - We also went out at the first hurdle in this cup, getting hammered at home by giants and our landlords, Manchester United in the second round. Friendlies - We were looking perfect until Arsenal turned us over on our own patch in our final friendly match. Squad - We have improved since we were relegated from the Premier League. Squad Dynamics - As you would expec t, this is excellent. Transfers In - None. Transfers Out 1, 2 & 3 - There was no major sales as we are not under financial pressure. We did let a lot of youngsters go out on loan though. Youth Candidates - It was a poor intake with Italian central defender Francesco Marrale YP46D325 being the pick of the group. Finances - We roughly broke even this year as the parachute payments from the Premier League proved to be invaluable. Key Players Keil Friar YP39A210 - The left winger was again our best player. Alex Donelon YP34A274 - One of our best players, he recovered from his cruiciate ligament injury and bounced straight back into form. Charlie Collin YP40A226 - The striker has finally come of age, scoring 33 goals in 45 appearances. Craig Reid YP32B99 - The Scottish international central defender had his best season in years. Kevin Dougill YP35B147 - The Republic of Ireland international, who is usually deployed on the right winger, was good enough though he is capable of so much more. Next Season Can we survive? Time will tell.

At times I wish there was a way to have a transfer embargo placed on your team because then all of the gameplay relating to transfers would disappear “So Neo Geo the transfer window ends in a few days, can we expect any deals before then?” No, I’m doing a youth only challenge and you’ve asked me the same question the last 6 transfer windows, moron” Make sure you adjust the budget to make as much of the funds be used for wages rather than transfers and just try to negotiate it out of the vision every opportunity you get (though I’ve never been successful removing any more than once or twice in this version of the game). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Ace Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 ".. you gotta take a stand it don't help to hide!!" We didn't, promoted again!! Via the playoffs this time We only won on away goals, but whatever! We were only 2 points (and erm, 7 goals) off of winning it, Falkenburg were tough And guess what? The voodoo curse was lifted ...... or upgrading the youth set up did some good Some dodgy personalities so only signed a couple of them, everyone else got a youth contract Thanks to the 560K from last season, we got in some improvements Spoiler Might be the play here, you don't get a penny in the 3rd division, if we can yoyo enough times between the 2nd and 3rd divisions, we can get some upgrades in every couple of seasons. Assuming we can do that, the squad will get older, fringe players will refuse contract extensions, we have lost a few but the starting XI has been the same for 4 seasons Spoiler Some kids have played to cover injuries and suspensions, I think there's 3 that have played a game each I'm still on the badges but looking at that, ol' Johnny Ace's attributes ain't great still and I'm running out of badges Spoiler We'll go down again, I'm sure, we're still not fully pro and took a whoopin' last time and we're no better, I'll take the cash though 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post grff Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 Al-Nojoom FC: 2030/31 Season Review Our best season to date as we finish in the dizzy heights of 4th place. We now go into next season with our first ever taste of Champions League football to look forward to. We spent the majority of the season in good form and thinking that the form can't last too long but it just kept going and going. Points wise, we only finished 5 points behind the league champions. Player stats were our best collection so far as we performed well for pretty much the whole season. Youth intake was probably our worst yet as only 4 recruits made the grade. Transfers. Our biggest issue is that our finances mean we can't offer competitive wages and our best players all want to move to bigger clubs. A couple more key players have gone on a bosman again. Season history Aims for next season Continue to perform to a top 4 standard Perform well in the Champions League Avoid losing any further players on bosmans. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post dkouv Posted April 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2023 Operário dos Açores – Season 14 (2036/37) Primeira Liga We started the season similar to last, picking up enough points to avoid relegation but lacking consistency. Then we went on a very nice run in February-April which saw us climb into the European spots, and despite some atrocious results against the usual big hitters in the last few games of the season (including a Spurs-y 6-1 loss away to Sporting) we hung on and finished 6th, qualifying for Europa league. Players: Still the story of crappy defence and good attack, Jordanes Vieito 08a (AMR/ST) had a great season, netting 25 goals in 30 games, and Denis Soares 10a (AMRLC) won the NxGn award, though I think this must be something strange about the algorithm, he isn’t labelled as a wonderkid and he’s not developing very fast; still, some of the youngsters are developing nicely and our U19s won the youth league, so things are looking up. Youth intake: Another attack-heavy intake this year, but Steve Barton 14a (ST) looks like a potential star to replace some of our long-serving forwards in a few years’ time. Also, a bit random to have Americans as the top 2 prospects this year. Facilities/finances: Still in the red, but with Europa league on the horizon I’m dreaming of finally upgrading my basic youth facilities next year. But of course, the first thing the board decided once finances stabilised was to build a brand new stadium which will see us pay £240k per month in loan repayments for the next 10 years, so maybe I will need to wait until champions league now :z (I hope not!).

Popular Post Riebow Posted April 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2023 Arras FA Season Review (39/40): Les Boyaux Rouges League: A year of consolidation in the Ligue 1. As last year we finished 7 and we qualified for Europe for the 2nd straight year. We're getting more competitive with the top teams, but we're still a few years before competing for the title. In sadder news, PSG is back on top. Cup: A lucky draw saw us go all the way to the semi-finals, where we lost to PSG in a barnburner. I really want to win the cup, but we'll need a lucky result against one of the top teams. Europe (NEW NEW NEW): Because the teams that reached the cup final also qualified for the Champions League, we were moved into the Europa League instead of the Conference League. For our very first game in Europe we were gifted a road trip to Kazakhstan. We mostly played a rotated squad in Europe, which explains the mixed bag of results. We finished 17th in the Group Phase and then easily beat Sankt-Gallen in the Playoff knockouts. We were then knocked out by Aston Villa, who ended up winning the whole thing. I'm more excited about the Conference League next season, as I feel we might have a outside chance of winning it. Wunderkid? Wunderkind? Wonderkid? Three players were given the famed wonderkid label: Michel Loiseau (Intake of 37) No surprise he's been named a Wonderkid, when you enter the game as ligue 1 quality player at age 15. To be honest he hasn't improved much, so it's possible his PA is close to his original CA. Maybe I can trick some team in spending some ridiculous amounts of money on him Spoiler Sorel Kerim (Intake of 36): Another CB Wonderkid, from the year before Loisseau. He wants to move to a bigger team, so we agreed he can leave if someone gives us 91M... Spoiler Axel Gaudry (intake of 35) This one is more of a surprise. He was out on loan to Le Mans for the previous two seasons and developed massively. He kept developing his first season back in the senior squad and could still improve significantly. He mostly plays as DM, but can play as a CB or FB as well. Spoiler NXGN: Those first 3 look familiar... Intake: We have a rather decent squad now, so the intakes might start to look a bit underwhelming. There are a couple of players with potential, so let's hope they develop. Spoiler The Talent: Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Next season Compete for the top 5 in the league. Try to win the cup and have some fun in Europe. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HanziZoloman Posted April 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) @Sdp9511 Good luck "I am ready to get sacked." Earl of Grey The Earl drove onto the Lane with a blue Honda for his presentation as the new manager of Billericay Town FC. "I could be elsewhere" he stated to the press. "We will embrace the complete challenge will we?" To all questions relating his shameful past as a reloader he jus smiled warmly. "Every saint has a past, every sinner has a future", he stated. "I am happy to get in touch with the lads". He got a little grey around the ears after his meditations, but he is the Earl of Grey isn't he? "Could Twinings please be our main sponsor?" He is still a peoples man. "The grass is still green and that matters most. Thank you @XaW for helping me to see the light, nothing would be more humiliating as a false victory. Thank you also for your kind and well chosen words. I take it with apreciation." The Earl closed the press conference with his warm and friendly smile.

Popular Post XaW Posted April 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2023 XaW - U.E. Sant Andreu - Season 2023/24 (Season 1) - Spanish Federation Second Group 3 Squad | Transfers | Finances The first season in Spain was a wonderful one. I quickly settled on my old trusted 4-3-3 and went from there. The issue was that the squad only had 11 players in total! Two were left backs, so I had to retrain anyway, so why not do something I know works well. It started fine, but we hit on a small rocky issue when my only goalkeeper was injured and I had to play a grey one who conceded 8 goals in the 2 games he played. Swell... After the goalkeeper came back we picked up our form and we combatted with a few other teams throughout the season. Eventually it went down to the final day where a win would see us as Champions, but we could get away with a draw or a loss depending on other results. We did our part and won it 3-1 to be crowned champions and thus promoted to the 3rd tier! One issue for next season, I'm losing two of the best players for free, and perhaps a few more unless I can persuade them to sign new contracts. Still, I will have to rely a lot on the kids next season. The intake was pretty good, but not spectacular. We will be short of central midfielders, so I'm retraining a bit and hope for a big influx of them next season. Copa del Rey: We had a tough draw and got knocked out by Real Oviedo in the 1st round.

XaW Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 @Johnny Ace - That's rough! Undeserved! 2 minutes ago, HanziZoloman said: Well done @XaW btw you said you retrain them, training has an impact at that level? Do you train more role or more additional focus specific? I was missing a midfielder and had 2 left backs, so I took the one I thought would be the best midfielder and trained and played that player as a midfielder. And eventually he became very good at it. It's often something I do in this challenge. Since players are so young, we have loads of time to mold them into the players we want. I've also created a spreadsheet with most of the roles I use (I need to add a few more) in order to see if they would fit any other role. This is their rating from 1 to 100. I've summed up the attributes each role require, multiply it by 5 to get it out of 100 and the divided by the number of attributes. Score = (Sum(Att1, Att2, att3, ...) *5) / count(att*) Sort of like that. I know I made this quasi SQL, but it's essentially what I do to create the score.

Popular Post WhiteCat33 Posted April 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) FC Elazig Spor Hamburg Season 14 2036-37 Oberliga Hamburg (Tier 5) Season 1 | Season 2 | Season 3 | Season 4 | Season 5 | Season 6 | Season 7 |Season 8 | Season 9 | Season 10 | Season 11 | Season 12 | Season 13 Statistics: Intro & 2030 (S8) | 2029 (S7) & 2028 (S6) | Master Sheet | Percentile Rankings (S9) | 2056 POR & BEL | Table Rebuild |GK Add & V.03 Link Competitions League: 1 of 20 [Preview – XX/19 (X00-1)] We were our own worst enemy this season dropping points against random teams to force it to come down to the final game to secure the title. Our 81 GD in 34 games speaks for how lopsided some of the games were. Playoffs: 1 of 4 WE ARE PROMOTED! Compared to our league the past few seasons the playoffs were a walk in the park. None of these teams dominated their respective Oberliga with 2 actually being 2nd place teams with the chance to advance due to II & III clubs ineligible for promotion. 3 wins in 3 games with 7 GD tells the story. Cup: 2nd Round We got an early matchup against Ostensen who we just can't seem to beat and got knocked out. Fine with me less games helped us in our promotion run. Squad: CA & Overview: I'm still frustrated that 3 of my best players are GKs, two of whom I have been sending out on loan their whole careers. Data Hub: We did well offensively (of course) but our defensive performance wasn't the greatest. Didn't help we lost our RB to a season ending injury early in the season so had to play the much poorer backup. Statistics Excel: Yeah this will mater again next year when we actually have to work on fighting teams better than us week in and week out. Transfers: Youth Academy Note: Because of our financial situation the Academy is basically dead right now. The board slashed the investment into the Youth Academy from 160k p/y to less than 50k p/y and since we have Poor facilities there's very little hope of anything resembling talent being generated. Youth Intake Preview: Youth Intake: YI Player Highlights: Didn't even bother they were so bad. Academy Data: I was so furious at the intake I didn't even export it into the CA calculator so I just have Country & Personality data for this year. HOYD: Can I really blame him for this mess? Best XI: Head Coach Club Still think we will be going into administration even though we will be in our new ground next year and hypothetically will make more money up a tier in the pyramid. Honestly, kind of curious what administration is like in FM as I've never managed to implode financials this badly (even in Belgium!) Almost 100% of that loss is due to the debt payments which have ballooned to over 50% of the annual expenditure. This new stadium better be worth it… Supporters: Manager Thoughts We finally did it. I have been slowly chipping away at this save as I knew it was just a matter of time before we could finally break through the insane bottleneck that is the Oberliga down in the German Lower Leagues. Next season I'm more worried about financial club failure than relegation. As a reference, this is what the Regional Division we will be joining looked like. Notice our old foes Hamm United & Bambek-Ulhenhorst are doing very well and mostly competitive with the B-Teams. And for the Season Preview the bookmakers hate us, but we easily beat Neumunster to get here so I'm not quite as worried Finally get that T5 trophy. Good riddance Oberliga!

Popular Post Neo_Geo Posted April 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2023 (edited) ROESIDERS SURVIVE LOUGH41 RELEGATION BATTLE COMFORTABLY More Youth DetailsYouth Intake PreviewYouth Intake Top 5 Season Review Back in Northern Ireland and it wasn't as good as my season with Ballymacash Rangers where I finished 3rd but we comfortably avoided relegation in the end and were very nearly in the Championship group until awful form hit. The finances are probably my biggest concern right now as I've lost around £40k in one season and signing the youth players in March hasn't helped matters. I have 1 player leaving and 2 retiring who were all on non-contracts so its not going to make a massive difference (though 2 were first team players and both were getting more money than the youths that will replace them). Formation wise I started with a flat 4-4-2 direct counter attacking formation but as the season progressed I realised I was being too defensive and moved the wingers up into a 4-2-4. Alex Pomeroy is probably the reason I survived as he was the top goalscorer in the league and could mostly be relied upon and given the intake has given me a DLF / PF who has 4.5 star current ability I think next season we could be on to a winner as far as a striking partnership is concerned. The weakest positions for me right now are GK and MC and whilst I have 5 star potential players for these positions they aren't going to hit the ground running. My HoYD is already leaving as he got too greedy for our allowed wages so whether he will have any impact on the youth setup will remain to be seen. Off the field there were no improvements made due to the poor finances (I didn't even bother to ask) but I did manage to get two coaching badges under my belt before we dropped into the red, with only 99 season tickets sold and a capacity of 550 we aren't likely to generate much income so I can see this being the stumbling block in the save. However, this news story popped up towards the end of the season (though it was followed up eventually by one that the story was not to be believed) and I've yet to have a takeover with any kind of investment. The intake was nice with 11 elites and 5 tops and 1 player who stood out yet it was central defender Mick O'Flaherty (Elite1) who has made a big impact with an average rating of 7.22 in 6 starts in the league and he has professional personality so I'll be looking to cement his place in the starting line-up next season. Next Season Aims I'm looking to improve upon the league finish and perhaps get into the Championship Group continuing to develop (and in some cases retrain) the most promising youth from this intake.

While I like how the game is 1-20, I think it's easier for me to categorize things from 1-100 when looking at a glance and it fit's into a more percentage way of thinking. Anyway, this is not meant to be a bulletproof way, but a way for me to easily spot if there are any players who have attributes that fit into an unknown role for them.

Popular Post libbyshuss Posted April 27, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 27, 2023 Germany - Aachen 2031/32 - 2.Liga Season Summary For most of this season we were completely, ridiculously awful. Like really bad. Then, inexplicably, we won 5 on the bounce in march to pretty much put us safe and then beat the league leaders at home. While still half the team were poop on a stick. So our best finish yet in our worst performing season so far. Very weird! players Danny Calvo 24A has become our most valuable player now. He keeps making noises about leaving so I had to offer him a stupid contract to get him to stay. But it does have a minimum release clause! Eeeeep! Colin Niehaus 25D is a weird one. Since he broke through I've had my hopes on him being the one to turn us into challengers but he's now 21 and regressing. This season was his worst by far. He's have a great game, score 2 and then follow it up with 3 stinkers in a row, often with less than a 6 rating. I've never had to fine a player so much. So he was top scorer, with 19 goals from 34 games, but his average rating was only 6.55. In a normal save I'd ship him right out the door but I don't have that luxury! he'll get another couple of seasons to prove his worth as Jannick Mausse, one of the only remaining legacy players, is now 32 and slowing down. Youth An odd preview. A 5 star golden generation, but the highest rating was C. So I didn't really know what to expect. So when the intake came in I was pleasantly surprised with 4 elite talents in there I've been using a narrow 4-3-3 so obviously the star graduate is a right winger. Finance and Improvements lots of money in the 2.bundesliga so the board were finally happy to give me upgrades. I did ask during that 5 game winning run too, they're always nice when you're winning be interesting to see the difference in intakes this little lot make Career So we're not quite established in the 2.Bundesliga yet, we've been clinging on for dear life for 3 seasons now. I'd quite like us to be safe for a season, that would be nice. We'll see which Niehaus 25D turns up next season.... 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glennuk Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Badak Lampung - Season Two - League Two - End of Year Review League First Round - 2nd in our group We had a really good season, and after our unexpected 3rd last year, we did one better and came 2nd in our group. Second Round - 1st in our group and into the Final We continued our fine form in the second round. Winning 3 of the 4 contest and only drawing away to PSPS. The 1st position in each group (2 groups of 3) get into the Final (win or lose you get promoted to League One) and the 2nd place in each group goes to the Third Place Playoff (the winner of that match gets promoted to League One). The Final We were absolutely dominated, but hung on to extra time and penalties, where we deservedly lost. It wasn't a huge deal though, as we had clinched promotion in only our second season. Although I am not sure if our team is really good enough for it at this stage. Let's hope for a good intake. Cup There is an Indonesian Cup, but due to focusing on the league, I am mostly just playing a fully rotated squad in cup matches, so at the moment our runs are usually out in the first or second round. The Squad I forgot my usual squad view screenshot, but did remember the Season Review one. My two CBs from the first intake are doing superb as my back line, and my LB Fernando Mulyadi (YP02B) has come on leaps and bounds and has been assisting superbly down the left side. Nugroho Junaidi (YP01C) has not come on as much as we had hoped considering he is a Model Citizen, but he is still young and is playing a lot, so perhaps he will be a late bloomer. Wahyu Saputra continues to really struggle up front, but our next best striker is so much worse in terms of attributes. We do need to move on from him sooner or later. Awards We got a few players in the Team of The Year and Abdul Hidayatulloh (YP01B) came 2nd in Young Player of The Year and 3rd in Player of The Year (as did I for Manager of The Year). Other News I got a new 2 year contract in October. We also improved our Youth Recruitment in September and then again in June. We also improved our Junior Coaching in June.

The_Gato_In_Goal Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Brønshøj BK - Youth Intake Season 17 Not the greatest of intakes from a depth perspective, but good personalities at the top. I'm really hoping the top 2 can carry the class. Still sticking with the same HOYD, might look to see if better options are available at the end of the year. Fuglsang 17a, aside from having a great name, looks to be a well-rounded striker option Personality isn't great, but I'm hoping his potential is for real and can develop into an elite talent. Rizvanovic 17b is my favorite of the class. Both footed, Resolute personality, and 18 flair. Looks like a great option on cutting in on the wing or playing directly through the center as a SS(A). We have a ton of wingers at the club now, and here's another one. Dam 17c looks to have a good base to develop, unfortunately his potential doesn't seem all that high. Similarly, Vindahl 17d doesn't have the highest potential, but does have some fun attributes. 16 dribbling is fun, but 5 flair is not. Also he's extremely short. Did someone say another winger? Johansen 17e has the highest floor of them all, but the lowest ceiling. And Kehling 17f has the Driven personality to develop, which will be needed since he has low CA and low PA. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post _JHTB_ Posted April 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 28, 2023 Ilkeston Town - Season 12 – Sky Bet League 1– 7th Transfers -- Squad -- League This season we had our first two major sales. Orhan Cetinkaya 7 In the summer we got a bit of a bidding war for Cetinkaya as eventually we accepted a £3.4m offer from Leeds with 50% of next sale. Physically he was a very good player, but technically he was lacking a bit so I was happy enough with the fee we brought in. Ethan Humphries 10 Our best player, but as soon as the January window came about he was demanding a move so again I started a bidding war. Unfortunately, my board do not understand bidding wars as they decided to accept several offers that were ‘too good to turn down’ before I managed to attract offers of twice what we ultimately sold him for. £6.25m in the end was his fee, but with a 50% of next fee included and he’s already worth over £30m so this could be fruitful. Our first game was away against one of the promotion favourites but it seems we did not get the memo as we won 5-0. It seems it was a bit flash in the pan as we 4 of the next 6 (6 of 8 in all competitions). But streaky it seems we were as we ended our poor form with a 6-1 victory. We did eventually go on some fairly good form as we were flirting with the top 6 for pretty much the entire season never really falling out of the 6-9th position in the league. Towards the end of the season we unfortunately laboured to draws in games that we were comfortably the better team and whilst on the last game of the season after 14 minutes we went 6th in the live league table as we took the league, we again drew on the final day – though it wouldn’t have mattered as 6th place team won their final game in the end. The big disappointment this season was that per the xG table we should have scored an additional 10 goals this season. Youth Intake Not the most sold on this intake, but there are players that look to have some potential, but mainly at full back where we have a fair amount of strength. Paul Smith 12 – An ok looking left back though his dribbling I think is a big weakness for him to be that effective there. I think he could end up in the midfield as he doesn’t shape up too badly with his attributes there. Jared Carline 12 – A good prospect in central defense he’s already our centre back with the 2nd best heading. He has good base attributes though so I can see him becoming an important player for us in the future. Patrick Elnar 12 - Another fullback again with not fantastic dribbling and again who could end up in the midfield. Per the intake news item Elnar was considered the best player of the intake and he his mental attributes are certainly pretty strong. Overview With our big sales this season we have managed to get both Youth Facilities upgraded, and training facilities in the process of being upgraded. We have announced also that we will be building a new 10,000 capacity stadium which will be completed in a year. Next season, I am contemplating changing my formation which, considering the success outr current formation has brought us is a bit risky, but I feel with the increased number of defensive players that are coming through it may be time to move to a 3 at the back formation. Key Players Josh Buckley 7 – The first season that Timmy Browne 1 has not been our stand out defender. Buckley this season has cemented himself as our best defender playing pretty consistently well. His lack of heading ability does sometimes cause us a bit of an issue but ultimately a good season. Darren Kerr 7 – Kerr over the past season has developed very well and had a good season despite conceding 61 he managed 13 clean sheets . We were fielding bids for him in the summer and January, but he is irreplaceable right now as there is no real strong back up. DeAndre Reid 8 – When he wasn’t suspended which was unfortunately more than I would hope, Reid had a great season from right back. 7 assists is a good showing, but I think next season he may have less as if we change formation he might end up moving to play as centre back. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennuk Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Badak Lampung - Season Three - League One - Youth Intake - Best Player in the League? Youth Preview The preview is an okay one, but Winger is not necessarily the position we need the most. But having two wingers is promising, as the hope is one may be able to be retrained into a Striker. Youth Intake Well what can I say? Having a Brazilian in any Youth Intake is usually exciting, but to have one in Indonesia, who is already rated as a League One player is amazing. I signed all who are tagged in the second image. Top 3 - Youth Intake 3 Nathan (YP03A) - Wow! He will go straight into the first team. I signed him to a 3 year contract with an optional extension of 3 years. Hopeful that means that he will be here at least until his early 20s. Fast, Fairly Professional, good dribbling. He is already the best player in my team and he is 16 years old. What a GEM!!! Hassan Prambudi (YP03B) - An either footed full back who has most of his important attributes at a 7 or above. Nothing as exciting as Nathan, but certainly someone who could well be cover for the first team this season and with the right amount of improvement could well be a first teamer in the next couple of years. The unambitious personality is not the worst, but hoping we can improve that (although mentoring right now is rough, with all of my influential players being Balanced or worse personalities). Gede Latief (YP03C) - Another decent CB. Another position where we are relatively strong. So Gede will probably stay in the U21s, unless we have a significant injury crisis. I am impressed by the high tackling and decent marking and heading. Hopefully he will improve even with the low determination. Spoiler Alert Nathan (YP03A) - can back up the hype 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
XaW Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 XaW - U.E. Sant Andreu - Season 2024/25 (Season 2) - Primera División RFEF Grupo II Squad | Transfers | Finances After the great promotion last season, I did not know what to expect in the higher tier. An additional issue was that we lost 3 of our best players during the summer since they didn't want to sign a new contract. Of course that really hampered us, and it also left us with very few midfielders for the most of the season. Unsurprisingly, we did not pick up many points initially, and it was evident we were in a fight for survival this season. One very positive thing is that we didn't concede much, but we also lost a lot of matches 0-1 or 1-2. Luckily, there were a lot of other teams who struggled with the same things, and we were part of a very big group all fighting to stay up. Eventually, we finished in a very decent 13th place to stay here for another season. The youth intake gave us a much more varied options and some better midfielders. Hopefully we can utilize this next season, so at least we can avoid using the worst players on the team! Copa del Rey: Another tough draw for us as we got top tier side Elche, and we naturally lost and got knocked out in the 1st round. Around the world U19s They only played friendlies this season.

Our first Champions League campaign saw us go all the way to the semi-finals where we lost to fellow Saudi team and eventual winners, Al-Hilal. It started to look like we were going to win the CL before the league Players stats were really good as we set a new record for ratings, goals and assists. Our youth intake wasn't too bad as took on a fair few recruits. Transfers. We lose two key players on free transfers as our keeper goes to Dortmund and defence midfielder goes to a division rival (will show in next season's transfer info). In other news we had a board takeover so our debt has been cleared. The board have also arranged to increase the stadium capacity from 1,900 to 3,300.
