That was a great season, 7th and European football. Brescia got relegated in 2023/24 in my game and are in Serie C this season (2024/25).

Bianchi is delivering well for you, but it might be tough for your squad to navigate the extra fixtures ahead. Good luck with that.

I like your update style, it's simple and easy to read when there are numerous updates. And the squad review is always useful. 

Thanks for you kind words, mate :) 

I´m very glad you enjoy the style, I hoped to make something easy to read exactly because of that reason - the many numerous updates at a time!

Intersting that Brescia got relegated in your save... hope they make it back to Serie B soon!

At least in Europe we are doing well.

 

spacer.png

We are their bogey team I think. They literally always get hammered by us.

 

spacer.png

We tried to compensate missing quality with aggression but it only worked in the first half.

 

spacer.png

A convincing victory against the Bulgarians to start off our European campaign.

 

spacer.png

The Swiss had no chance at all. Giardino scored his first goal for us.

A pretty boring game. They were the only ones that scored.

We are slowly improving our performances in the league.

 

 

spacer.png

A totally even game with the result it deserved.

 

spacer.png

We were the better team but sometimes you just can´t do anything about it.

 

spacer.png

A Bianchi double saved our day.

 

spacer.png

Here comes our first defeat in Europe and how unlucky it was! They equalized our early lead late in the game and we thought we had won it when Cordoba scored 2 minutes from time to give us back the lead but somehow something happened then and we conceded 2 goals in stoppage time. Maybe it was the home crowd intimidating our players, I don´t really know. 

 

spacer.png

The perfect response! We put up a real fight and took the 3 points in Salerno!

 

spacer.png

Cuk scored in the 92nd minute to win us the game! Deserved? No. But I don´t give a ****.

 

spacer.png

They controlled the game as expected.

We surprised them with our offensive approach and they just couldn´t handle it.

Phew! We got away lucky in this game. 3 more points for us.

 

spacer.png

A strong performance vs the Champions. We matched them which shows our newly acquired confidence.

 

spacer.png

Cuk is our most important player at the moment as he is getting us all the points...

...wait! Did I say Cuk? I meant Bianchi of course :D

It was tough and we had to work hard for those 3 points. The red card made it a bit easier.

Transfers

spacer.png

Yes, we lost our number one keeper to Dortmund. Dovin wanted to leave once the offer was there and we could do nothing about it. Well, if he wants to spend the next years sitting on the bench filling in 1 or 2 times a season for Kobel, thats his choice. The rest were loans out because they complained about not playing enough.

 

spacer.png

We needed a new number one keeper and in came Martin Vantruba. We will probably look for a better keeper after the season. AND we signed Uber-talent center back Giacomo Superbi, a real gem!

 

 

Results

spacer.png

Undefeated! A great start into the new year.

 

 

spacer.png

2 shots on goal, 2 goals. I guess that was a lucky win.

 

spacer.png

Thats ok, it was an even game.

 

spacer.png

A must-win at home and we delivered. But it was quite some work after going behind 0-2 and coming back to win it.

 

spacer.png

We continued to shine in Europe.

 

spacer.png

Our favorite opponent. Cuk finished them off.

 

spacer.png

Those 3 points came unexpected! But Bianchi decided to win the game for us.

We almost won it but we are ok with a draw too.

This was NOT a lucky win. We had the better chances and converted one of them to defeat them. We will meet AC Milan in the semis.

Olzer does not play that much, but when he is needed he is there. He saved us a valuable point in Rome.

 

spacer.png

A really boring game. Meh.

I guess they had their revenge on us for their Coppa Italia defeat. It was very lucky, though.

Great results in Europe for us.

 

spacer.png

Once more a rather boring match. We take the point nevertheless.

 

spacer.png

This game was easier than expected. We scored early and were able to add another goal via a pen. They did nothing.

 

spacer.png

Giardino scored right after they levelled the score which was the decisive moment in the game.

 

spacer.png

They gave us a little scare when they scored after 14 minutes but we were able to calmly shut the game off after the break. Next: Manchester United in the Quarter Final.

 

spacer.png

They won the 1st leg. But the result leaves us every chance of a comeback.

This month was packed with matches! 9 games in 30 days! Insane, but we mostly made the best out of the situation.

 

spacer.png

We beat Inter! A great team performance, but it came at a cost: Cuk was injured and is out for 2 weeks!

 

spacer.png

A respectable result, although it may not be enough to win this tie.

 

spacer.png

Giardino once more scored a decisive goal! 3 points secured.

 

spacer.png

Well, this was obviously going to happen. However, the number of our shots was cringe.

 

spacer.png

Cuk saved the day on his comeback! He came on in the 70th minute and scored the goal 10 minutes later.

 

spacer.png

 We just couldn´t score. This broke our back and we went out.

 

spacer.png

Cuk to the rescue again. This time we could have scored way more though.

 

spacer.png

We had to lose some day again and this is what happened against Lazio.

 

spacer.png

Our first Derby victory! And what a crucial win this could be - Atalanta could lose the title because of this defeat.

End of Season 2027/28

 

Team Stats

spacer.png

Bianchi might have been our player of the season again but Cuk closely follows behind. The still 18 year old scored 21 goals compared to Bianchi´s 23 in almost as many matches! No surprise he won the Seria A Best Young Player Award. Our new keeper Vantruba had a great half season for us, securing us many points. Ciervo, Matheus Alexandre and Besaggio were as consistent as ever, providing the most assists (Ciervo). Superbi and Papetti held our defence tight at the back, Gorby is improving and improving as a ball-winning midfielder and Giardino scored vital goals despite not playing that often. Veteran Bisoli is too old now and will leave us as we will try to build on more youth players from our academy: Our U18s just won the national U18s league in style!

You're doing great! Very interesting to follow a save in Italy.

That title race in the end, though! I have deduced that it must have been four teams on 77p and one on 75p before the last round. What were the head-to-head results between Inter, Fiorentina and Atalanta?

Start of Season 2028/2029

 

Transfers

spacer.png

It finally happened: Bianchi is gone. He wanted the money and we could not stop him. Same goes for Galazzi and Matheus Alexandre but they were not as key as he was for us. Rodriguez wanted to return to Spain and Giardino did not want to rot on the bench here which is understandable. Martino went back to his homeland Argentina as well.

spacer.png

Gomes is a new talented playmaker joining from Benfica, Dahl is a left wing back from Sweden and Weigandt is a right wing back from Argentina. Boattini can play both wing back positions, Dal Bosco is a new option for the ball winning midfielder position, Aguirre is a left winger who joins from Torino. And as you can never go wrong with a big, tall German in goal we signed Nübel from Werder. Ivanovic gets loaned out right away to get match practice, and Vannozzi is joining our U20 team. Now you might tend to ask the important question: "Where is the replacement for Bianchi?" and here come our Brescia Academy Products - the Two Lucas: Luca Franchi and Luca Conti. After years out on loan at Serie C and Serie B clubs to earn their trade, they seem finally ready to join our first team. Same goes for winger Domenico Ferrari.

 

The Team

Goal

spacer.png

Nübel is our new number one. Vantruba will be only backup from now on. Rovida is somehow still here.

 

Defence

Many new and young players here.

This scoreline could have been way higher. We have to critisize our finishing here.

It could have been worse. If Mir scored the penalty I don´t know if we could have come back from a 0-2.

Transfers

spacer.png

Blame it on me! Superbi had a 7.5M release clause in his contract and Fiorentina triggered it! I just completely forgot about it and we were punished for it! So our best player was snapped up for a absolutely bargain price by our rivals! Well done, Baxter... the fans won´t forget this I am sure! Oh and 2 loans out were wrapped up too.

 

spacer.png

So we had to bring in a replacement, or sort of, and signed Sebastiano Luperto, an experienced center back. Ivan Cordoba will take Superbi´s place in the first team from now on though.

 

 

Results

spacer.png

Wonderful start into the new year.

 

 

spacer.png

Well we had the same number of shots but look at the xG.

 

spacer.png

Again, we had the same amount of shots on goal but the xG speaks different.

A convincing win for us, nothing spezial.

Start of Season 2029/2030

 

Transfers

spacer.png

Sadly, Nübel turned out to be a money-grabbing mercenary as he went back to the club which sold him off a few seasons ago for the big dollar (or Euro in this case). Boattini leaving was always a possibility as he had already outgrown us and he went to City. Dahl and Cistana were not good enough anymore for us so they went as well. The rest are the usual loans.

spacer.png

Italy U21 keeper Belluzzi will replace Nübel as our first choice goalkeeper. Allegrucci is literally the successor of Boattini, Cortese will be our new right back with Zappa as his backup. Pini is a talented central defender while Gagliardini brings experience to this position of the ball winning midfielder, which Cirillo also will be a backup for. Longo gives us more options on the wings. Barra is a young central defender who joins from our U20 team.

So very unlucky last season, at home and in Europe. Hopefully your young squad can deliver equally strong performances in the new season ahead!

Thank you :) Youth is the key to our success, hopefully!

**** you, Benfica!

 

spacer.png

We took it easier in the 2nd half, hence their 2 goals.

 

spacer.png

An easy game for us, especially after the red card.

 

spacer.png

We just blew them away with our current confidence.

 

spacer.png

I guess we just flew too high and came crashing down. But that´s maybe a good reality check for us and will help us in the long term.

 

spacer.png

Conti´s first hattrick in professional football. 

 

spacer.png

We compensated our fans for the heavy defeat vs Benfica with 6 goals vs AEK.

 

spacer.png

We smashed Lecce to end this month with perfect league results.

October 2029

Results

spacer.png

Sociedad ruined the perfect month.

 

spacer.png

It was lucky, yeah. But that´s football.

 

spacer.png

A massive win against big Milan! Cordoba headed in the winner after a corner 2 minutes from time.

 

spacer.png

Conti running riot again! This time he scored four!

 

spacer.png

The game only came to life in the last 15 minutes, when 5 goals were scored. I am sure the neutral fans enjoyed this.

 

spacer.png

Conti only scored 1 goal. Disappointing.

 

spacer.png

A last-gasp winner from Allegrucci secured our 100% record in the league this month.

spacer.png

We are already ELEVEN points ahead, but Napoli and Inter have one game in hand, granted.

November 2029

Results

spacer.png

We continued to go undefeated.

 

spacer.png

We rested some key players for the next game and it showed.

 

spacer.png

They countered our early lead and took the lead themselves but we were able to equalize 15 minutes from time.

 

spacer.png

Conti with a double and Roma were defeated.

 

spacer.png

This was a must-win and we delivered.

 

spacer.png

Conti scored twice again as we hammered poor Braga.

Nine points ahead. Pity the season isn´t over yet.

December 2029

Results

spacer.png

We are marching on.

 

spacer.png

We were asleep in the first half but came back like true kings. They were so intimidated by that that they missed a penalty in the end.

 

spacer.png

We were in control the whole time.

 

spacer.png

The Swedish side were trying, but to no avail.

 

spacer.png

This is what makes a truly great team - we still won despite being one man down!

 

spacer.png

Sampdoria were strong and held tight.

 

spacer.png

We dominated. Inter had NO shot on target! 

 

 

spacer.png

League Table

spacer.png

The gap melted down to 6 points but this is because Inter are just relentless and we still have a game in hand.

Transfers

spacer.png

A lot of departures here. Ciervo wanted a new challenge, Aguirre wanted to follow the money and Gomes never really made it here. Weigandt went on loan for match practice.

 

Results

spacer.png

It had to happen someday.

 

spacer.png

In an even game we had the more clinical striker: Vanja Cuk.

 

spacer.png

Here we go. Chiesa sealed our fate in the 96th minute of the game.

spacer.png

 

 

spacer.png

Back to our winning way against overwhelmed Empoli.

 

spacer.png

Franchi saved the day! 3 more points in Europe!

 

spacer.png

One goal in either half and we won 2-0.

 

spacer.png

We showed we are no pushovers in Europe! Despite having fewer chances we were way more effective and won the game after a Franchi brace.

League Table

spacer.png

It is still 6 points. Inter are chasing us.

Wow, really going well. What I am seeing here is goals, goals, goals. And wins, wins, wins! Amazing that Inter are still within touching distance, but if you take care of your own business this looks like it will end in success. Good luck.

Yeah, we really seem to have found our strike force with Cuk and the two Lucas there... Inter are relentless - we have to watch out not to slip up despite our good form :)

An undefeated month again. With the explosion right at the end.

 

spacer.png

Napoli are always tough and this game was no different.

 

spacer.png

We would have liked to avoid extra time but sometimes the opponent just hast to score the equalizer in the second-last minute of mentioned extra time. At least we know how to take penalties.

 

spacer.png

Often its the smaller teams that cause the most problems...

 

spacer.png

...but sometimes you just blow them away in their own yard.

 

spacer.png

Seems like we are dominating the Derby lately.

 

spacer.png

BOOM! They thought they could play their second string team and still get a result. How wrong they were! Luca Franchi punished them for their arrogance!

Inter slipped a bit, so its 11 points now.

We seem to somehow run out of steam towards the end of the season.

 

spacer.png

Damn! Our worst game of the year and then against Milan of all teams! This could prove crucial.

 

spacer.png

Another straight defeat! They were all over us and we can count us lucky that they slowed down in the 2nd half and missed that penalty.

 

spacer.png

Thank god Cuk appears when it matters most. Most of the time.

 

spacer.png

Conti scored twice but it was not enough. And we have to be honest - they were the better team over those 2 legs.

 

spacer.png

Cuk to the rescue for at least one point Are they bogeying us again?

 

spacer.png

I Rossoblù made it hard for us. In the end we had to thank Luca Franchi for the point.

 

 

spacer.png

League Table

spacer.png

Somehow, Inter did not make the most of our rather weak results and we are still leading by 10 points. Could this be the season?

 

 

Youth Intake

Another POOR intake!! What is going on here? Still, Turco looks class.
