Popular Post bg0123 Posted June 2 Popular Post Share Posted June 2 Usti nad Labem - Czech First Division - 10th Season (2033-34 Season) Another disappointing season where we had to play in the relegation group.

Popular Post Matsusipida Posted June 3 Popular Post Share Posted June 3 IFK Lidingö season 17 / 2040 No major sales during preseason meant we would have a change to improve last seasons 4th place. Season started really nicely and we lead the league midseason with a 9 point margin. The Team was in a great form winning 8 league matches in a row. With 10 matches to go it all started to collapse. We had a couple of injuries and international call ups as well. And the good form was gone. we only scored 15 points from the last 10 matches. Tittle challengers Kalmar FF were in a great form takeing 37 points from the last 15 matches. luckily our advantege was large enough and we managed to win the 2nd tier with a 2 point margin. Finally up to the highest tier. Spoiler Squad. Viktor Strandlund was promoted to first choice GK as Simon Didrik refuced to exted his contract. The highest offer we received for Didrik was around 3K€, so deceided to keep him untill end of contract. Josip Kalinic 28F found goalstreak with 15 goals (2 leagua goals last season). Daniel Rynell 29C was in fine form as well as both playmakers Peter Strandberg 33O and Jonathan Sletsjøe 30A. Johan Svensson 37A continued to develope nicely. Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Peter Strrandberg 33O has done really nice progress alltough noone believed in his potential early on. he came in with really low expectations, but has done brilliantly and already has 132 league caps. I'd call that a missjudgement from my staff... Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Youth intake was nice with a couple of high potential players. Christoffer Forsgren 40A is a high potential GK with professional personality. hi might well be the new no.1 in long term. Jonas Hermansson 40B and Dennis Klinspor 40C might also turn into first team players. Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Spoiler Transfers Spoiler This seasons success was just too much for a couple of players. Andreas Söderstöm 31A turned into a casual character and Rasmus Ohlander 35C turned to unambitious. I remember having similar problems when promoting from 3rd tier. Jonathan Sletsjøe 30A turned from resolute to fairly determined back then etc. Do you guys have similar problems with your players? What would you guys do with a " important" player/ team leader who turs casual. he has newer performed on a level maching his ability so would you just sell him (basically for nothing)? I just don't like the idea of one team leaders being casual. Finances were looking bad before we got promoted Spoiler No changes in facilities, except youth facilities being downgraded after the season. Next season might be a struggle in the Premier division. Johan Svensson 37A is pretty much only premier division standard player we have. summary Spoiler 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Winski Posted June 3 Popular Post Share Posted June 3 FK Rača Bratislava Season review Season 1 | 2024/2025 MONACObet liga Transfers | Afiliates |Facilities| | Finances | Manager Profile | Competitions overview | Club overview A great first season! We became champions of the MONACObet Liga, and are promoted to the highest Slovakian level We only lost 4 matches. In the Cup we lost in the Third Round against Partizan Bardejov. MSK Puchov won the Cup surprisingly, as they are in the same league as our team. Our best players these season were: Pavol Bellas, our topscorer and MvP with 24 goals and 9 assists Matej Ruzicka, who made 14 assists Samuel Budinsky, with 17 goals and 10 assists Peter Lukac 24c, who scored 20 goals this season. He came through the youth ranks in the 'holiday season'. The rules in this league are that you need to play with at least one U21 player. I decided to put Lukac 24c in the team, because of his scoring ability. He's quick and has 14 finishing. And with 20 goals he had a fantastic first season! Youth intake The preview wasn't good, and the intake either. Only one Elite talent. But I can't expect anything good at this stage. Hopefully my HoYD Ibrahima Sidibé will give us a better intake next season. Upgrades I was only able to upgrade our Junior Coaching and Youth Recruitment just once.

Popular Post Thebaker Posted June 3 Popular Post Share Posted June 3 (edited) 2027 (season 3) Table | Squad | Transfers Started the season unbeaten in 15 games to take control of the league before a few poor results but recovered to win the league with 3 games to go. Played backups and young players in the last 3 games for experience which made the league look closer than was. Not entered in the swedish cup. Finances continued to fall quite a bit this year although i can't put my finger on why. Veteran striker Maholli had a great season to finish as league top scorer. Jonsson recovered from last season's injury to play well from midfield. Davidson was also able to up his game. The youth preview was excellent and led to a very good intake with a much needed striker. Saleh and Olsson were the other top youths although none look very near to the first team.

Popular Post Daddy Posted June 4 Popular Post Share Posted June 4 Season 10 - 2033/34 - Czechia - First Division: My suspicions were confirmed that our roster wasn't deep enough yet to handle Europe and the League and succeed in both. I wasn't expecting to make it to the quarter-finals, so that was a pleasant surprise. Losing our Keeper and striker led to both giving up too many goals and not scoring enough. Our backup striker has developed into a decent player. Our keeper is still considered a Second Division player. Adding to the "fun" we also just lost another good player right before the season clicked over. Another update on the one that got away...for free. It's a hell of an intake with some incredible nationality diversity. Keeper is a big need which makes me quite happy to see our top prospect of the class. 2033/34 Season Preview: Hopefully, the other European teams leave me alone for the year. If they do We'll be in the hunt for Europe again. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkiIIs Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 (edited) Season 2044/45 - Macclesfield FC - Premier League Our first ever back to back season in the Premier League was something to be proud of, especially after having a good season last and avoiding a relegation battle altogether. Unfortunately we werent able to build on last year and struggled to gain any prolong periods of decent results. We were always hovering around the relegation zone without really dropping in it until round 33. And from there we couldnt manage the results to survive. A disappointing season. We did get a decent intake tho however ive decided to pause on this save and try somewhere where i think I can actually complete the challenge which be the make of my next update.

Popular Post XaW Posted June 4 Popular Post Share Posted June 4 XaW - Fútbol Club Casa Estrella del Benfica - Season 2033/34 (Season 10) - Lliga Multisegur Assegurances Squad | Transfers | Finances Domestic treble! Can't do much better than that in Andorran football. We won the Supercopa, the league, and the cup, and the players are really looking good now. Of course, it was a close call for all three against Inter. The Supercopa we beat them on pens, the cup final we beat them on pens, and in the league, we beat them two times and lost the last to edge us to another league win. So clearly a very close call, but we still did it. Also, we did well in Europe and got in some money to finally go professional! Now, with hopefully most of the squad on full time deals next season, we can really start to steamroll most league matches, and turn our focus on Inter and Europe in the coming seasons. Copa Constitució Protecvall: We beat Ordino, Mavlon, Carroi, and eventually Inter on pens in the final to claim the trophy. Supercopa Andorrana: We beat Inter on pens to finally claim this trophy too. Champions League: We somehow beat APOEL of Cyprus before we lost to Norwegian side Molde in the 2nd qualifying round. Europa League: That meant we got booted down to the Europa League where we beat Celje of Slovenia before we lost to Dunajská Streda of Slovakia in the playoff round. Europa Conference League: And we once again got booted down, but this time into the Europa Conference League Group stage! This meant a lot of money of course. Here we drew Celje of Slovenia (again), Anderlecht of Belgium, Žalgiris Vilnius of Lithuania, Valencia of Spain, Astana of Kazakhstan, and Rapid Wien of Austria. We managed to beat Žalgiris Vilnius and draw Celje and Astana while losing the rest and finished 28th in the group and thus knocked out. Still an amazing European adventure for us Best players from the academy: Quentin Riviere 30a - Another amazing season, but he has threatened to leave us, but as we went professional, I've finally been able to offer him a new deal, so I think he will stay. José Antonio 31a - 18 goals playing as a winger (and I mean the role W-A) is quite something! Arturo Tejada 25a - The closest we have to a veteran, and even though the coaches doesn't rate him, I don't see why I should stop using him when he plays this well. New club records: Most player of the match awards in a season - Quentin Riviere 30a - 13 awards Most league apps - Arturo Tejada 25a - 212 apps Most league goals - Quentin Riviere 30a - 87 goals Fastest goal - José Antonio 31a - 18 seconds Only one improvement accepted this season.

Popular Post SkiIIs Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 (edited) Season 2024 - Versport FC - J3 League Im pretty sure the real team name is Verspah Oita and the logo above is correct. A club that was founded just over 20 years ago havent really achieved too much in their short history. They do have 1,000 season tickholders which should help the coffers at the start. The first team is pretty strong by the bench is full of greyed out players. There were 3 players already scheduled to come to the club, however for some reason only 2 arrived. These were pre arranged before my arrival so i made the call to play them throughout the year. Board expectation was for a midtable finish but we had a really strong year and finished 3rd, one spot beneath the automatic promotion spots which put us against FC Gifu in a one off play off match at home to make the promotion final. We stunk that game up and lost 2 - 1. Our best player refused to sign a contract and hence we left at the end of the year. Managed to resign everyone else for an extra year or two. We started off with no academy and so was crucial that we we got some improvements which we did. We also started with over 2m in the bank so we used that up for updating our training facilities as well. Also studied for my first badge. Spoiler No youth preview this year cos we didnt have an academy, but we did get a youth intake as we made the necessary updates before the intake date. Not surprising it was a poor intake and i suspect that to be the case for the next couple years at least. Edited June 5 by SkiIIs 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkiIIs Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 (edited) Season 2025 - Versport FC - J3 League Second season i was hoping for much of the same as we have enough players to fill out the bench albeit some with no CA stars at all. We started off really well but then had 4 losses in a row and never really recovered after that. Form was patchy and we needed a win on the last day to make playoffs, funnily enough games on the last day arent at the same time and we were the last game. We needed to beat FC Osaka away and after going down 2 - 0 after 24 minutes, i thought our season was over. However we fought back to go in at half time square then managed to score a latish winner to set us up a play off game against 3rd spot Iwate. Neither team was able to score and so they went through to the final on seeding and subsequently did the same thing in the final going up a division by seeding. We got some more upgrades this year and also managed to start studying towards my A licence. Spoiler We did get a youth preview this year, although it wasnt worth looking at. The intake was that bad again that i forgot to take a picture of it but this is a snapshop of part of the squad sorted by youngest to oldest which shows you how far off the youth intakes are.

Thebaker Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 2028 (season 4) Table | Squad | Transfers Started the season in ok form without really getting the results i wanted, by halfway through the season the team was around the relegation battle. After the mid season gap the team collapsed losing 9 in a row as the defence and especially the GK's lost all form. Relegation was confirmed with 1 game to go which they rounded off by losing to the bottom team. Managed to persuade the board to keep me on even though the feedback level was at E, but all the best players want to leave due to relegation inc both GK's! Not entered in the swedish cup again, Finances as a result took a real hit with expenses going up but no increase in income. Board will not increase any facilities due to the poor finances. Top scorer Jonsson and Hjort were the few players to perform well over most of the season. The youth intake preview was excellent with the intake looking good for potential as well. Lundqvist, Olsson and Wahlgren were the pick of the intake. No youth players so far have shown much sign of improvement and i am still relient on the legacy players.

Popular Post libbyshuss Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 Scotland - 2032/33 - Cinch League 1 Promising Season Sabotaged By Spineless, Short-sighted, Idiotic Board As you may tell, I'm really cross! We were going really well with our top two players combining really well to rip teams apart. Then came January..... Inter Milan offered 24k for Callum Gordon 31A. He was rated as Premiership level so I knew it was unlikely I could keep him so negotiated with a 50% sell on. And then.... AAre you kidding me????? the best player we've ever had, and you give him away for 41k???? I didn't even have a choice to protest or ask them to renegotiate! i just had to take it! i quickly offered him out for peanuts +50% and got a load of bites but to no avail. He's gone! as he was under age he couldn't leave for Milan until the summer so at least I got him for the rest of the season. And his combination with Josh Farrance 30B was dynamite! so, on the last day of the January transfer window.... 18k????? he was leading Championship level! scored 30 in 31! and again I had no choice but to just take it! at least i managed to get a 50% clause in here but still. Losing Farrances goals effected us greatly and we struggled after he went. But somehow we managed to sneak into the play offs Into the play-offs, where our form picked up a bit Losing on penalties was harsh but at the same time we can be proud of our achievements. But I am worried about next year. How do I replace Gordon and Farrance? Youth With a new intake! well... preview was poor. and the intake was similarly poor. But one elite talent is promising. I forgot to take a screenshot of the actual intake but here he is, my lonely elite talent Career 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ron_Swanson Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 Stal Stalowa Wola - Poland - Fortuna I Liga - season 2 - 2025/26 Filip Kaczmarczyk looking really good, first team ready, he'll probably be my starting AMC, needs some mentoring though. Maciej Kieliszek can be a backup striker and a few more to look up. Unexpected promotion but we never fell below top4 and opponents missed lot of points. We did it despite huge injury problems like my best DC Damian Oko torn his ACL in november missing rest of the season and a lot of minor ones to other players. Youngsters did a good job, maybe not the best ratings but given the final result I'm optimistic with them. My main concern is losing 3 important players - Bartosz Wiktoruk, Dominik Kościelniak and Michał Mydlarz - same case with all of them, they were complaining about squad not being strong enough and just after last game when we were celebrating they wanted to talk and decided to leave on a free transfer next year to move for a bigger club - good luck then. They're listed now but no one is interested. The board agreed to invest more money into youth recruitment and we're also getting a small stadium expansion just to have minimum 4500 seats required in Ekstraklasa Finances at the day of seasonchange 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bg0123 Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 Usti nad Labem - Czech First Division - 13th Season (2036-37 Season) Great season! We finally did it, we will play in the European Conference League second round qualifier. I hope that it's the start of regular European competitions for us. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Makoto Nakamura Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 2029/30 End of Season Review A diabolical mid-season spell where we picked up just 4 points from a possible 24 but we still managed to make it into the playoffs...falling at the first hurdle. Lots of A's again which I'm more than happy with even though we still haven't been able to get any upgrades. A 5* CA striker! And three 3* CA players on top of that, a potentially really good intake, shame everyone is so short! We've even had our first player poached! Overall Best XI 2029/30 Best XI Iprotip Das Amarjit Lyngdoh (YP4d) - Peter Singh (YP2e) - Thomas Fernandes (YP3b) James Pereira (YP3a) - Deepak Singh (YP4c) - Yami Longvah - Manuel Fernandes (YP3g) Ayaan Shaikh - Michael Rabha (YP1a) - Laltu Singh (YP3f) 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HaylingZar Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 Macclesfield FC - 2033-36 Seasons - Seasons 10-12 - Sky Bet Championship Season Update After being promoted to the championship in my 9th season, I would spend the next 3 seasons in the Championship. I've consolidated these 3 seasons into one post for brevity. Season 10 - 5th - Lost in Playoffs The first Championship season went very well. Although we couldn't do another back-to-back promotion we finished in 5th and just failed to get through the playoffs. We lost one of our key players in Hopkins as the transfer was taken out of my hands by the chairperson. Still, a hefty bit of cash to throw around at least! Interestingly, our wage structure remains a third of that of the next-lowest team. Given that league performance is usually closely correlated to wage budget, this is a good sign that we are overperforming! Youth Intake Another good Youth Intake this time with Okonkwo looking to be a potential future star in the defensive position. We always seem to get a lot of strikers and attacking midfielders so depth at the back is sorely needed. Key Player Last season's Hot Prospect becomes a key player for us. He has still got a lot of potential to improve as well. Season 11 - 3rd - Lost in Playofffs We improved on last year's placement but our record in playoffs is still poor. Perhaps the biggest talking point of the season was the sale of Jordan McCarten to Sunderland for a club-record £10.25M. Youth Intake We had another excellent Youth Intake with goalkeeper Irving looking to be a potential star. Key Player Our standout player this season was DM Densmore. He doesn't stand out in any one attribute but he is decently well-rounded and has the right vision to spot and pick out a pass. He would probably perform better as a CM, but I never use CMs this FM, preferring to play him as a DM alongside a more defensively-minded player. Hot Prospect Nigerian Centre-Back Stephen Okonkwo came through the Youth Intake last year and has the potential to be an excellent player for us. He started a lot of games this season, performing well. I hope we can just hang on to him! Season 12 - 2nd - Promoted! And we did it! After improving on our results last season we placed one position higher than the last, and in our third Championship season we were finally promoted to the Premier League. Although most of our squad is around the VNL to League 2 level, we do have a couple of Championship-tier players. Still, this will be our hardest test yet, as next season we will be playing in the strongest league in world football. This season started strongly and we performed well throughout the season, however, Coventry also had an incredible season and we set the unenviable record of highest points without winning the Championship title. Our final points tally was 94! Youth Intake Not quite as promising as the previous couple but with two decent-looking prospects I can't complain too much! Also, peep the Cypriot in the intake, I love having uncommon nationalities show up. While on the subject of youth players, check this one out - our first-ever player to be featured in the NXGN awards! He's gonna be great for us, I'm sure! Key Player Once again our key player goes to Polat, he's just so consistently great. He's easily our best player at this point. Note that I installed a new facepack so if you were following my earlier posts you'll have spotted that a lot of the players will have changed in their appearance. Hot Prospect Another from our 2034 Youth Intake - Irish midfielder Darren O'Shea. I'll definitely train him as a DM because I don't really use central midfielders. Transfers Spoiler As mentioned above, in season 10 I was forced to sell Ryan Hopkins. In season 11 I lost Jordan McCarten. In Season 12 I fortunately didn't have to sell anyone. Season 10 Season 11 Season 12 Squad, Club Info, Finances, League Tables and Manager Progress All in this imgur album as I hit the image cap! Summary After 3 years of graft in the championship, we are now moving into the premier league! This will be challenging and I have no delusion that we will immediately perform as well as we have in previous years nor that our success will be quick. I do have every faith in my squad to keep us up however, and hopefully after a number of years (or decades...) we will have established ourselves to such a level that we can consistently challenge for continental positions. Thanks all for reading, and I hope to update you again soon after my coming seasons. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jamespthomas Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 (edited) Season 2 - 2024/2025 Start of Season Objective. Improve on last seasons finish of 5th. Develop Cesari, Giusti and Mancini, Build out coaching team. Keep Finances stable. Win a round in the Serie C Cup! Season Notes Sold a lot of the established players from Season 1 to balance finances. Played a lot of the youth players who were 1 star/Serie D rated such as Viale (GK) and 1.5 Star Giusti (CM) Again a good finish in league finishing above expectations 5th (prediction 19th) switched to a 4312 to try and get game time for Giusti and Bruno in CM. System worked very well in that we scored a lot of goals, as our Goalkeepers arent very good we conceded lots also. Worked out where I was going wrong when asking the board to add coaches. clicking "worried our players wont develop at this club" worked a lot and now upto 6 coaches. Lost in the third round of the Serie C playoffs narrowly to Crotone. Again lost in the first round of the cup. it's always 3 days after a league game so maybe I need to rest players more...... Progress Summary Added 7 new targets to the bingo card including some lower hanging fruit. wont update it again. Achieved one target as Cesari got called up to the Italy U19s/20s aged 16. End of season Squad / Player recap Strong in Defence, CDM and CAM so currently set up as a 4312. Battistini was again top goalscorer for the league. Battistini, Chiericetti, Morselli, Miculi and Cesari are the standouts and Palma was player of the season but he's declining aged 31. Still lacking at Goalkeeper & Wingers. Youth Intake Preview & Intake A promising preview was followed by a goodish intake. My HOYD is developing some great personalities! Youth Intake Standout Andrea Pizzo. Great personality - resolute with great determination and workrate. well rounded attributes across the board. Hope he develops well. HOYD Upgrade Davor Jozic was doing amazing things especially unearthing Cesari who I hope is destined for the top! but think Fabio Longo below with his Driven personality and better judging CA/PA will be a good upgrade. should get even better if able to update his badges. Cesari Watch developing well, went from fairly determined to resolute. debating whether to play more at full back for more assists/higher match rating. Finances/Upgrades Still no upgrades but have managed to do 2 coaching badges. Lost £350k this season even after selling £200k worth of players and reducing wage budget by £5k. Next Season thoughts Promotion is getting almost a necessity due to finances, ageing players and retaining Cesari. To do that I need injury luck and 16/17 year old starters Mancini, Giusti, Viale and Pizzo to develop into 2.5 star decent Serie C players. A wonder season from Cesari and another 20+ goal season from Battistini. Edited June 5 by jamespthomas 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOWAL Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 26/26 It was a good season, but at the end, unfortunately, we lost only 2 in the last 10 games, which made me very frustrated. Next season I plan to change the formation and introduce a lot of young blood. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
