Carambau Posted May 13, 2023 Author Share Posted May 13, 2023 (edited) FEARLESS AND FAITHFUL SEASON 2032/33 The Second Half Of The Season WINTER TRANSFERS We splashed the cash again and brought in more quality on both wing back positions. Ziminsky should replace our talent Abbiati, and Stefanovic has lots of potential. . Results Spoiler THE BUNDESLIGA TABLE Damn this was a close one! We managed to beat Bayern at home but in the end it still wasn´t enough but it´s only 3 points. Martinez had a wonderful season on fire, topping the goalscorers chart and THREE of our players topping the assists chart. We are getting closer, Bayern... We won the DFB Pokal again! Granted, we were lucky to reach the final after TWO penalty shootouts but hey who cares? It´s our 6th title in the last 10 years! Dortmund were leading 3-0 when Milambo finally scored for us. After the break all hell in the form of Joaquin Martinez broke loose and this monster went on to score 4 more goals to win us the DFB Pokal. One of the greatest performances by a single player I have ever seen in the game. We showed what we are capable of against Liverpool and then went out in close matches against PSG. Looks like we are making progress in Europe as well. THE YOUTH TEAM VfB Stuttgart U19s Our U19s won the league and qualified for the national playoffs where they reached the final and lost against RB Leipzig U19. They went out in the 2nd round of the DFB Pokal der Junioren, and again did not make it out of the League stage in the UEFA Youth League. YOUTH INTAKE 2033 A brillant intake this year. Adams is the brightest talent in group of high potentials. Edited May 16, 2023 by Carambau 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carambau Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) FEARLESS AND FAITHFUL 2032/33 Season Summery Once more our attacking power was key this season. But we also have to acknowledge that Bruno in the meantime has become the regular Spanish National Team keeper! Applause to him! We have to admit that our defence wasn´t always up to the standard this season as can be seen by the low average ratings so this is the first thing we need to adress in the post-season meeting. Surprise of the season: The 33 year old winger Amine Gouiri! The old man participated in 27 goals and did only start in 17 games! A magical transfer! His 33 year old french compatriot Diop wasn´t that bad either. Star man of the campaign was of course Joaquin Martinez with his 42 goals in 44 games, no doubt. He was voted Player of the Season too. THE YOUTH TEAM They lost in the final of the national league playoffs against RB Leipzig, lost in the 2nd round of the DFB Pokal der Junioren and went out in the group stage of the UEFA Youth League. THE EUROPEAN CUP WINNERS Champions League Finally a classic final again. And our ex-player Haddad decided it! Europa League An all-spanish final again. UEFA Conference League Cologne wins something for a change EUROPEAN DOMESTIC LEAGUES ENGLAND Spoiler Liverpool dethroned Man City. SPAIN Spoiler Real Madrid again. ITALY Spoiler Inter win the league once more. FRANCE Spoiler This is so boring. Edited May 14, 2023 by Carambau 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carambau Posted May 14, 2023 Author Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) FEARLESS AND FAITHFUL SEASON 2033/34 THE TRANSFERS Looks like a lot is going on here but it really isn´t in term of first team players. Granted, CM backup Sims, DC backups Nelson, Nielsen and our 3rd keeper Bojic left but thats about it. The rest are mostly getting rid of deadwood or loans for match practice. We spent some (maybe too much?) money on a CM rotation player and a talented central defender. Galli gets immediately loaned back to his original club and Grill isn´t really worth mentioning as we won´t ever play I suppose. THE TEAM ANALYSIS Goalkeepers Bruno is the current Spanish national team goalkeeper and Lucio Flavio already got some U21 for Brazil under his belt. Bad times for Grill. Defenders Unterberger is a real talent. Apart from that, there are no other changes in our defence for this season. Midfielders Jaksic surely has some potential. Hope he fits in quickly. Attackers Our deadly attackers. THE PRE-SEASON FRIENDLIES Lots of goals again and 5 wins in 5 games. THE CLUB NEWS I wonder why Dortmund are still ahead of us here. Both of our strikers are listed here. Finally, our facilities are perfect. Edited May 18, 2023 by Carambau 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are topping the table after the first half of the season! Damn Bayern of course have a game in hand but a win in that still would not make them overtake us. Martinez & Petkovic again were shooting most of our opponents to smithereens... apart from UNION BERLIN of all teams who won 3-0 against us in Stuttgart!! Besides that, we smashed Bayern 4-1 and only drew 3 away games. Pray for an injury-free second half of the season! Absolutely no one cares about this cr*p cup!

We definitely were no better than last season, but Bayern were weaker. So we were able to sneak away with the title this time. Of course, both strikers scoring like hell helped. But I think we will not be able to repeat this next season. Unless we strengthen our team massively, that is.

Carambau Posted May 18, 2023 Author Share Posted May 18, 2023 (edited) FEARLESS AND FAITHFUL SEASON 2034/35 THE TRANSFERS The only prominent departure here is Mattia Viti, who I thought was getting a bit old and as we got good replacements already I decided to let his contract run out. Diop WAS already old, so good bye. The sale of Abbiati hurts a bit, as he was an Academy Product and might have had a good future here, but then again he was developing rather slowly so we let him go to Liverpool. The rest are mostly loans or sales of U19 players who didnt make it here. We brought in only 2 new players this time. Galvez joined from Newcastle to bolster our central midfield and Christensen will be our 3rd keeper, meaning he will never play but has to keep his mouth shut. I guess you cannot please ALL the fans... Galvez is 25 already though...? Meh, some people just want to complain! THE TEAM ANALYSIS Goalkeepers Bruno is developing sensationally. He got 39 caps for Spain by now at the age of 22! Flavio does not really come close and of course neither does Christensen. Defenders Cristian Galli joins the first team after having spent last year on loan. We finally look in good shape here with Ziminsky, Piovaccari, Unterberger, Stefanovic and Hunter. Midfielders Fernando Ortega has been on loan at Bochum last season and has now returned. Jaksic is maturing into a great player. Kalokoh has improved even more. Attackers I am surprised they both are still playing for us. But there was no real interest from other clubs which is fine for me (and the club!). THE PRE-SEASON FRIENDLIES Lots of goals again and 5 wins in 5 games. THE CLUB NEWS Finally the media gets it.
