That didn't last long after only just a year with a string of losing games, which I'm not impressed on how the second season goes. As far as concerned, how does FC Osaka would be like after you got fired and went to a different team in India. I hope that you'll also show some roster of it as well as how J.League looked like at the end of 2026 and mid-2027 season. Hopefully, you'll get a better job in Japan if you're willing to come back soon. I was in the J3 League with FC Osaka. Honestly all the teams were very strong and there is not much of a difference between J2 League and J3 League players. Obviously the level is different in the top division, but I still stand by the fact that the FC Osaka job was comparitively more successful. Right now I am in charge of an Indian club, Jamshedpur and I am honestly amazed that a Hero Indian Super League team offered me a job after my time at Chennai. But you take what you get and I am happy that I have landed on my feet. Expectations are quite low which will work in my favour and there is only one way, which is upwards. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 24 Author Share Posted July 24 (edited) This is how the summer transfer window went at Jamshedpur FC this season. The 2nd screenshot is the continuation of incomings and the 3rd one is the continuation of outgoings. Decent transfer window so far. Hopefully that translates into some good form.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 Sacked by Jamshedpur after just over 6 months in charge. I mean we stayed long enough, but the overseas players did not quite fire and there was a huge gap in quality between the Indian and overseas players. I will look for a new job now.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 This might be my fastest resignation ever. I joined a club called Machan FC in Malaysia and I have decided to resign in an hour. The club absolutely lacked any semblance of footballing structure and I was so put off. It is actually insane. I am not interested in being overworked and underpaid.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 Another error of judgement as I resign from another club, Nyva V in Ukraine hours after being appointed. There is no proper structure at this football club too. It's like the really badly run clubs are trying to trick me into getting the job and then not giving me the proper structure to operate. There was no assistant manager, no coaches, no scouts. This happened at the previous Malaysian club as well. Once, it is okay and it happens. Twice? I am actively being conned by clubs.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 I finally have a new club and this time my judgement is correct. I am now the new manager of Harini Selangor FC in the Malaysian Super League. Really excited to be here after the two nightmarish scenarios I went through with the other two clubs I got tricked into joining. I am looking forward to building something. This is what the squad looks like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 26 Author Share Posted July 26 Mid season update. (Harini Selangor 2028 season) We are UNBELIEVABLY *****. Oh God. We are awful. 1 point from 13 games. But you know what the silver lining is, atleast this club did not con me into accepting the position. But oh my God, we are unbelievably bad. How I have managed to stay in charge for 4 and a half months is an absolute mystery. This team is *****. Jamshedpur was better than this team. In that team we had a washed up Luke Norris who came from Tranmere who were in League One in England but this Harini Selangor side have no quality whatsoever. I am playing for pride in the second half of the season. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 27 Author Share Posted July 27 Sacked by Harini Selangor FC after just over 5 months in charge. I deserved the sack. I don't know how I managed to stay in the job for 5 months but I somehow did. My time in the initial spell of FC Osaka is a distant memory even though that ended badly but I have officially hit rock bottom in terms of employment as a football manager. But when one door closes another opens. So I hope I get better as a manager and work my way up to a reasonable level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 27 Author Share Posted July 27 End of season review with Halifax Wanderers FC. We finished bottom of the league after we won 2 out of 9 games since the time I took over.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 27 Author Share Posted July 27 Halifax Wanderers sacked me. To be fair I wanted to leave. I can't sign any new players because no one wants to come.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 Mid season update. (2028-29 season) The 4-3-3 Wing Play is not quite clicking with Ankara Keciorengucu. We have just one win in the league since we took over. We have been charge of 6 games. Bottom of the table. Something needs to change and it needs to change fast. However I will stick to @leobiazzi's suggestion of the 4-3-3 Wing Play and do my best to beat the drop. For now it looks like we have found our style of play. To the viewers and readers, your interaction in the thread is really appreciated.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 28 Author Share Posted July 28 Sacked by Ankara Keciorengucu after nearly 3 months in charge. Player power forced me to change tactics and the players downed tools. You can forgive players who have no quality but try hard but these players are snakes. They literally did not follow any instructions, they kept conceding stupid penalties every other game. This is probably my most Mourinho-esque moment where I am ranting and raving about players just being crap at following instructions. Very promising when I initially took over but quickly got toxic and I am happy to be out of this job to be honest. I loved my time in Japan with FC Osaka, those players had heart, these players couldn't give a toss at this Turkish club. Anyway I am off, looking for a new job.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 I should have probably stayed at Dergview. I got duped by an Indian club on this save in the I-League by a club called Southern Samity. The owner first tried to poach me from Dergview, then after I resigned I was offered an interview by the club. I got offered the job and then when I entered there was literally no proper setup in place. I was stunned that people put so much of effort in lying to managers to provide the role only for them to walk away. I did the right thing. I do not deserve to be treated this way.

_Ben_ Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 I'm not quite sure what has drawn me to this thread but I've sat and read it and then looked back at some of your old threads, too. Please don't take this as patronising and please don't assume I'm good at FM. That being said - the last time you posted your manager profile, you had a 17% win ratio - surely there is no fun in that? I see that you're trying to emulate Mourinho but he was never as petty as this. Three clubs (I think?) that you've resigned at inside a day is just absurd. Surely you can look at the staff that they have in place and, whether you do this on your own or delegate, you can put in place new members? No unknown manager would realistically walk into a club and have a backroom staff pre-built for them? Secondly, I want to dig into how you play the game. Do you speak to your players at all? I noticed - albeit post relegation - that your players all have abysmal morale. I know it feels gamey at times, but morale is super important here, especially as the new manager bounce (as you've repeatedly said you haven't had) is made more do-able by keeping it positive. That's either praising or criticising at the right times. Do you handle your training? Even if you don't - I'd recommend looking at what the assistant does and ensure you have match prep blocks there to ensure some tactical familiarity. Speaking of which, how do you decide what you want to do at each club? Is it a plug and play tactic or do you make your own? Personally, I'd start with a shape that ensures your best players are in their favoured roles and positions, using a Balanced risk factor with no team instructions. Just watch the games, see how they play out. Look at your opponents and see who is strong or weak there and then make those small changes, ensuring that you're doing more tactical stuff to make sure that they learning these new styles. I'm not being rude or arrogant - and I hope I speak for the others who have followed your threads - but I feel you're a bit lost here in a cycle and I'm offering to support you as, honestly, I'd take no fun in losing a game all the time! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, I will be better with team talks and usually about that I just do what the assistant recommends, however let me try it on my own and keep morale positive. Maybe that will help. Need that new manager bounce the next time I am at a club. The other thing I want to do is, create a sense of personality and human-ness to my manager which is completely unique to him, right now my manager character does not have the awareness of what is going wrong, so would definitely love a redemption arc. The other thing is that, if it were predictable, where he did not so good in a couple of clubs and suddenly started doing well, it will be too mainstream and predictable. I will lean on to the strengths, which is the manager's unpredictability. However, with some changes I will make good things happen and I am determined to do it.

Sahaj Oberoi Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 I have a new club. And this time I am back in Indonesia. I am now the new manager of Indonesian League One (Top Division) club Dewa United. Really excited for this challenge with some of the fresh perspectives I have got from the readers and I thank you all for that. This is what my squad looks like. And on that note, I have tried a "clean slate" tactic for the first time on the save. It is 4-2-2-2 formation on "balanced" instructions and as I said I will be mindful about team talks so I will not rely on the assistant for suggestions during team talks and will properly handle them myself and let me see what happens.

Not entirely what I said, but, good luck! A suggestion would be to talk to any players who rate over 7.50 each game to praise their performance and then, with a specific reason, discuss with anyone a performance below 6.50. Furthermore, anyone who drops any issues - praise their conduct. Every other week, I’d also be praising training for those with over a 7.50 rating and criticising those below, using player targets to keep morale up. Whilst the game is way more than ‘Morale Manager’ - you’ve got to find a way to stop the rot when you take over a losing side. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

danyates8 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Firstly a couple of things, where does the media expect you to finish in the league? That should help you figure out how teams will set up against you which will in turn give you and us a better idea of where to position certain players. For example, if you are heavy favourites for the league teams will sit back against you, due to this any space will be in front of their defenders so a deep lying playmaker would make more sense and the space would be in the area he occupies whereas if you were expected to finish in the lower end of the table, teams are more likely to attack you leaving space in behind, if that's the case it makes more sense to have an advanced playmaker. Id also remove 'work ball into box', if its not selected that doesn't mean you team won't work the ball into the box, it just means they will look for it on a more consistent basis, because of this I tend to leave blank and use it as and when I feel its required. I feel using it alongside a lower tempo will only hurt your chances of scoring as you are giving the opposition lots of time to get set in defence. It does aid in building your possession statistics but you can certainly become a 'possession' based side without it. I've got to go to work now so won't be able to help further until this evening. In the meantime try to figure out who your best players are within your squad and where they will fit in to the tactic you want to create 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So expectations are very low which will allow my team to have time to get the style of play in their heads. In that case I will play a more of a clean slate tactic. Instructions added are. :- 1. In possession- Be more expressive 2. In transition- Hold shape and counter press. 3. Out of possession- Mid block. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
