Mbappe and Vlahovic have tailed off in last couple of seasons (by their standard), but the goal scoring consistency was phenomenal

Dec '33 & Jan '34

The team is fighting on all fronts. Only defeat was a poor performance against Liverpool by my strongest XI. My youngsters/second XI got immediate revenge in he league cup SF, leavimg me in a quandry (last season I persisted with my youngsters in final and got a walloping).

The Red Bull clubs and Gladbach are among the big ones that missed the play offs. Slavia the surprise ones that made it

Completed the one missing trophy in the English top division for me. I decided to go with a mix of youth + experience in the final and we almost made a meal of it before securing a dramatic late win

Feb & Mar '34

We have pretty much killed of the title race and have picked out first big trophy of the season with the League Cup win against Southampton. They took immediate revenge by knocking us off the FA Cup at QF stage (I'm sticking with my mix of youngsters + second XI players for cups). Genk fixture was tougher than what it looked on paper and they gave us a run for the money in the first leg. Next up Man City in the UCL

The winner was one that flew completely under my radar. I have extensive scouting focused on u22 and surprised he was never recommended as a target

Only 3 representation from our team, but the last one was a surprise

Dave came in through the academy, but was not highly rated by my staff. He is blossoming on loan, but his skills are not upto the mark (except for the pace and dribbling) for a striker. Might retrain him as a winger.

Thankfully I was able to reason it out with Saka. He is closing in on the all time appearance and goal scoring records, but I think the scoring one is a bit too far for him.

We closed out the league season in style and have a big match up with my old club coming up

Pep is doing as fantastic job in Italy

But Bayreuth's new manager has just led them to their highest ever finish and back into UCL. Danish managers seems to be the lucky charm there

Their charge were led by two signings made by Priske, but the top scorer was a player I had signed but never made impact at Bayreuth. He made his way back to Bundesliga via an extended spell in Serie A and have taken the league by storm.

Transfer Window Opening

Couple of stalwarts and few youngsters released and 3 moved at end of contract

I also decided to extend Ant's loan at Bournemouth as I forgot that I had a future transfer agreed for a youngster from Napoli

Players in

Valdeir is a youngster my scouts pointed out. He will spend the rest of the season back at Brazil

I moved for Frederico mostly to head off Man City, who had pit in a bid during last season. I arranged for an end of season transfer for a player who is rated as PL star.

Ruyman was a player who had developed nicely, but was beginning to stall at Napoli. I made a move as soon as I decided on not renewing Omishen, but completely forgot that he was going to join up at end of season.

Hopefully the only further first team out during this window. With 6 CBs fighting for 2 spots, I decided to cash in on the one who was attracting most interest. Turk is someone who has worked under me at 2 clubs and has always been a quality performer.

The Squad at the moment

fbbe645d03a096f848604769a9bc03a6.png

The only concern area is GK where we lack good options at the moment. I have couple of decent youngsters in the development squad, but there are no world class GK available in the market as of now. I am going to give Vladimir a chance to stake a claim for the First Choice GK.

This is an example of the kind of idiotic bids this year's FM seems to be well endowed with. Clubs keep on coming with these silly bids that doesn't evern come close to the expected value of our key players. When I bid, they expect 1.5x to 2x the transfer value to even enter into negotiations :idiot:
