2047 Summer Transfer Window Our success in Scotland is finally getting noticed, as we make 2 huge sales on deadline day. Cristian I'm a little sad to lose, but we brought in a reasonable replacement that could possibly grow to be a similar ability. I also couldn't say no to a team like Bayern, it's just unrealistic. We make a cool 24.25M profit off his sale. The other big sale wasn't as damaging to our first team, as a new signing demoted him to the bench, but Cesarano still had a great story with us. Bought from Lazio for only 300k, he scored 40 goals in 65 league games for us, and now he's off to the Bundesliga, netting us 21.2M in profit. Our depth is affected a little bit, which isn't ideal if we want to make a deep European run again, but we have a few youth players that aren't too much of a step down. We make a few shrewd deals, but also some big ones (albeit heavily back ended). We're a stronger team as a result, and we're going to have a huge season if everyone stays fit. Eleftheriou comes in as Cristian's replacement, and Dunn is why Cesarano's departure was less painful. We absolutely killed it this preseason, beating every English team who came to Scotland, before scoring 15 goals in our first 4 league games, including 6 against Celtic. We get a relatively favourable draw in the Champions League too. I expect to beat Rudes, Anderlecht, St Pats Athletic and Aktobe, which should be enough to qualify before we come up against Bayern and the team who beat us in the final 2 seasons ago in Barcelona.

January 2047 Unceremoniously dumped out of the Champions League which likely means we'll be here for at least another season, and I'm not mad about that. Still haven't finished building the club into what I want it to be. At least we'll be unleashing our fury on the league, where we have a shot at going 5 wins clear at the top.

2046 Summer Transfer Window A lot of development loans again, and we have a lot of Clark's 5 of them out on loan. While it looks like we've spent 17.5M this transfer window, we've only spent about 2M as it's all backended. It's good that we're still at the stage where cheap players immediately improve our team, because we only had a 6M transfer budget despite our new riches. Maybe next season? No Invincibles suspense this season, as we drop our first game to Rangers. But the season is long, so plenty of time to catch them. Tough draw, but I'm hoping we beat Nice, Shamrock Rovers, Antwerp and Stuttgart fairly reasonably.

We ended up making the Champions League final, but it was a step too far as we were completely outclassed by Barcelona. Still, a huge effort given the team we have, and it's only going to get stronger next season. Speaking of, it now looks like we're the highest reputation club in Scotland, but we're not a half star better than the next best, so we're here for a 3rd season. It doesn't feel right to only spend 2 seasons here anyway, as I feel I haven't left my mark yet. Best XI Oli Hopkins - Lucas Berríos - Kit Parsley Progress
