Ace40 Posted July 28, 2023 Author Share Posted July 28, 2023 End of the Season Review A good season domestically was overshadowed by a terrible performance in Asia We finally have the Iraqi NT job and can get to work to improve our stature in the game We are struggling to improve facilities due to lack of funds Our reputation has increased once again, but not enough to get us to two stars. Will Boumsong's ridiculous numbers earned him the POTY 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace40 Posted July 28, 2023 Author Share Posted July 28, 2023 July to October A busy summer, one where we changed strategy once again We started focusing on young Iraqi talents, as we have the money to splash around locally, and they have lower demands than established players We got rejected by a couple of the biggest targets, but we got the rest The highlight for me is Alaa Abdul Hussein, who is a decent striker that happens to be 6'5 Most CBs in Iraq are barely 6ft so we will be abusing his height for goals. We signed a Brazilian CB from the third division who looks to be a good player, although we had to pay 26K to get him. We are now predicted to finish 2nd in the league, which means we'll probably steamroll to the title We also climbed to 4th place in the wage spending as our squad grows larger and we continue to improve No change on the sponsorships Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace40 Posted July 28, 2023 Author Share Posted July 28, 2023 ''Gameplan'' Update Our ''gameplan'' has had mixed results. We managed to sell two players, but both went to Iraqi league sides, where the opportunity for our clause to be valuable is way lower We sold one first-team player to a Saudi League club, which did not even register him, so we sold our clause for 20K Mbow, who we sold to the Qatari League last season, was also not registered to play but did play in the cups, and we managed to get over 100K for the clause. The downside is the players currently remaining in the club, we only managed to loan out one player, with 4 players rejecting various loan moves. We also signed two players to join the loan army, but we failed to get them loaned out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace40 Posted July 29, 2023 Author Share Posted July 29, 2023 Oct to Feb A very good first half of the season sees us top of the league and through to the CL KO for the first time ever We sold one of our Iraqi summer signings to a club in Qatar for 35K, and 50% of the next sale The focus in the transfer window will be to loan/sell the rest of our foreign youngsters 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace40 Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 Feb - June We make it 3 league titles in a row, finishing the season with exactly the same points as the one before We had a miracle run in the CL where we reached the SF, but Al Nassr beat us before they themselves made it 3 continental titles in a row Once again we got knocked out in the QF of the Iraqi FA Cup. We got the youth Intake, and small improvements are being seen in the caliber of players coming in but still a long way away from where we want to be However, we managed to upgrade the facilities that they will be using Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace40 Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) Iraqi clubs in 2027-2028 Former FA Cup champions Al Kahraba went up after a few seasons in the lowlights, joined by once giants but now yo-yo club Al Talaba Two irrelevant clubs went down, as Al Naft and Al Sinnat both went down We won the Iraqi Premier League!!!! Zakho won the FA Cup for the first time ever, beating Naft Al Basra Iraqi clubs in Asia We did well to reach the SF of the Asian Champions League, becoming the first Iraqi Club to do so since the 1970s Al Shorta was knocked out of the ACL Qualifiers by Dubai side Shabab Al Ahli, but they made up for it by winning the AFC Cup. This will give them a place in the ACL qualifiers next season despite their Midtable finish Overall a fantastic year for our project that sees us move into 9th for the coefficient.

Ace40 Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 Iraqi NT in 2027-2028 Our first year in charge of the NT has been underwhelming I finally understand all the complaints about International management as it is very tedious and boring For starters a number of players that declared for Iraq IRL still haven't been changed IG, and they refuse to entertain the notion of being called up The tactics I use seem to work incredibly one game and be a disaster the next Home and Away have such a huge impact it seems. Nonetheless, our results in a snapshot were not terrible SF in the Arab Cup, in which underdog Syria won the trophy SF in the West Asian Championship, which was won by Saudi Arabia Into the final round of WCQ However when you inspect the results, you will see we were beaten by any good opposition and got some lucky draws to our two 4th place finishes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace40 Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 July to October We made a couple of big sales, most notably the sale of POTY Campbell Delany to the Qatari side Al Khor On the other hand, we made some signings but I'm not happy about them. Pre-season has shown me that I haven't strengthened the squad well enough and I don't expect a similar campaign in Asia Most notable disappointment is Egyptian CAM Mira, who I didn't even register due to his poor performances, and I ended up registering one of the players intended for the loan army Pre-season expectation shows us in first, and I don't see us facing trouble in the league We move on to sixth for sponsorship income in a big jump.

Ace40 Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 ''Gameplan Update'' We lost out on the clause for Sarr as he left for a loss from Al Qasim Domestic clubs are really bad at selling players so we are moving to include a % of sale as opposed to profit We cash in on the clause for Mohammed Kazem as he went unregistered for the new season in Qatar We make a sale to a club in Colombia which is pretty cool We make a huge sale in Delany to Al Khor, 115K, and 50% of the next sale. It's still a steal as he is immediately valued at750k-8Mil, and has a 5 Mil release clause Hopefully, he makes a quick jump to another club and we get our payday.

Ace40 Posted August 2, 2023 Author Share Posted August 2, 2023 Oct-Feb A big six months of the season as we absolutely smash our club record sales. Goal machine Will Ma Bamsoung has left for Al Taawoun for 1.2, rising to 1.6M and 30% of the profit of the next sale We immediately spent that on a training facilities upgrade. It was heartbreak in the CL as we finished third tied on points with 10 and got knocked out in the GS In the league, there is a title race brewing between us and Al Zawra'a The focus is on replacing Will Ma and getting some more players for the loan army with our new warchest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After much deliberation, I decide to go with the club record signing Camara and one of the players who I failed to get a loan move for I may live to regret it as they performed well in pre-season but I have other priorities We are second in the sponsorship table and have done well to keep the wage budget in check and remain 4th in that regard All the extra money gets us another upgrade for the training facilities Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace40 Posted August 9, 2023 Author Share Posted August 9, 2023 End-of-Season Review A 5th successive league title and a respectable showing in Asia The FA Cup continues to elude us The reputation has increased once again, but not enough to get us to 2.5 stars. I feel like the increases will be incremental until we can win the CL The training and youth facilities are now up to 3.0 No change in the coefficient front, and a slight decrease in NT rating after a poor showing on the world stage Moussa Fall breaks a team record of most goals in a season with 29 and earns POTY Alaa Abdul Hussein broke a transfer record with a total of 7.7 Mil earned for him We now have nearly 16 Mil in the bank. We can upgrade our facilities to the max, but the bottleneck is now time I will stay at the club until the facilities are maxed, I don't trust the AI to do it on its own. It should take me two or three more seasons Hopefully, we can go on a couple of strong runs in the CL to keep the coefficient safe while we build up another club .... and maybe get an FA Cup title. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm holidaying most of this season only playing the CL games We still don't have the option to upgrade the Facilities If we make the CL SF I will resign and move on to another club, as I feel I could grow the nation further by improving the facilities of other club even if Samra'a get stuck on 3 stars Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sell players for a 100K where I used to get millions for the same caliber of players We have only one new-gen born overseas that gets consistent time for the NT, and none that are too good to play for us and play for stronger nations This is disappointing as I was hoping it helps us move up the ranks faster I project that the next ten seasons will have slow and Incremental success, but I am hopeful of some good regens that spawend at various clubs The Ai logic and transfers are really holding us back, but such is the game 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
