https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/RcwIEwZ73goPnsieGBIsnCrP215q9oVIsCOWwJAG.png

Club Overview
Dynamo Dresden, is a German association football club, based in Dresden, Saxony. It was founded on 12 April 1953 and became one of the most popular and successful clubs in East German football, winning eight league titles. After the reunification of Germany, Dynamo played four seasons in the top division Bundesliga (1991–95), but have since drifted between the second and fourth tiers.The club will begin the 2014–15 season in the 3. Liga.

Norbert Klopp, 27 year old German, plying his trade as a semi professional footballer in England. Also the cousin of Borussia Dortmund Manager Jurgen Klopp.

After splitting up with my wife of five years, I was barely keeping a float playing semi professional football for Burscough and working in JD Sports. I was in the process of taking my FA level 2 coaching badge when I got the phone call from Germany; it was the chairman of the once great Dynamo Dresden, they had seen me on TV in a brief FA cup stint with Burscough and saw my great determination to succeed. After a bad run of managers they wanted to hire someone who would do whatever it took to make this once great club, great again. A long winded Skype call ended in me accepting the position of manager, I would finish my Level 2 and fly over to Germany immediately.

Pre Season 2014/15
Currently settling into my 300 euro a month studio apartment in the middle of the beautiful city of Dresden. Joined an amateur team in the local league to keep me involved with the playing side of the game. First day tomorrow, meeting the board then onto the training ground to meet the lads and have a chat about my expectations of them for the coming season.

As soon as I arrived, I contacted the board about the training facilities. Boosting the quality of the facilities at the club will only help us progress, they were very willing to comply with my request.

Here is the squad

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/PBqCjM3nVn4kSidzHfNOlZCYNo5DZQaSpEDXfAAR.png
Some changes are in order to boost the strength of our squad, however there is some good quality already in there!

Jurica Buljat - Free Transfer
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/2qoXUMQOjFxle6HYodVektsIKiWv0QJcyXPtIywz.png
A really solid centre half with good defensive attributes and mentally strong.

Ivan Klasnic - Free Transfer
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/9MFpGnlr7tZCA4x7xyDmbCaKnKTDko8mbNSzAmWw.png
A more well known face, despite his age I feel he can still grab us some important goals this season.

Erik Thommy - On loan from Augsburg
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/KbMA2UbHAJN553JFpShdDNg0mWTJvxqraFSWFbzp.png
Will be providing backup for my attacking midfielders.

Timmy Thiele - Free Transfer
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/sY6mjBgRieYiNWleOeCU5Lo6BZU6x6MGYvDWKeq2.png
Some good attributes, best free striker I could find.

Tim Leibold - On Loan from Stuttgart
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/o4gvG1lMs1yvmdiLP2RpTmEkmeheS84dvQvLZ9OE.png

August/September 2014/15
After a pretty dreadful set of results in pre season, it looks as our season could be a tough start.

It looked to be a relatively easy start to the season, playing teams predicted to finish in the bottom half of the table, however it didn't turn out that way.
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/qxfZquO0pDtWdE2ya4wUkAvuXmyOgRL7w3aFKdTD.png
Two solid victories to start of with before we lost in the cup to Aalen who are a division higher, and after that a winless run followed as we picked up just one point in four games against Osnabruck. A long awaited win came against Erfurt before we lost to Halle and picked up another point in the final game of the month against Regensburg. Overall a poor start to the season with only three wins within the first two months.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/lDXT7oU131KiRU2omCvLtHxpDbTatu2TSu6oZbSg.png
A tough result to take against Osnabruck, 4-2 up with 10 minutes to go and we conceded 2 goals in 4 minutes.

The league table shows us sit in a disappointing 14th place after 9 games, only picking up 11 points.

Johno - Inconsistency is a problem, need to get used to my tactics as soon as possible.

SBR - Yeah for the neutrals, not for me. Yeah hopefully we'll pick up some points in the coming months.

Dan - I know, need to start keeping clean sheets!

Jamie3 - Hopefully!

October/November 2014/15
After a poor start to the season, I hope we can pick up some wins to climb the table and give the team some confidence.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/NxRcXto9Jg9oAkcIyBweUWagwomxWlXDtb3Pqwjq.png
Another loss to start October, but we soon got some points on the board with a solid win against Cottbus before we scored 6 goals against Fortuna and Stuttgart respectively, both games we dominated obviously.. We then started November with a 3-0 defeat to Duisburg with us not even looking like scoring despite 12 goals in our previous two games, another loss followed in a 2-1 defeat to Unterhaching before a great point away from home against promotion hopefuls Chemnitz. Two wins rounded off a much better two months with us only losing three times in nine games.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/fTb6JoDQ0cyoVLNQvIXzYMFz3kBRbuGTCUAcYWJa.png
What an incredible performance. Eilers very impressive scoring four!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/xZz0BdMgKsaSd3AHtGzGhaBzlN7ggewAaa62FihT.png
Another good performance, three goals conceded in the last 20 minutes was a real let down.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/4yzkyYb8CiFpmM5GK2H59ZSQlCdViYSa8ZqG5Hpc.png
Summer signing Thiele wins the Player of the month award for October!

With some much needed wins, at the end of November we sit in a much healthier 6th place.

Dan - I know, played the same way as the previous two weeks just had more luck and been a little more solid at the back!

Gendo - They are a great club, seem really classy! Hopefully we can get promotion this season.

December/January - 2014/15
Really keen to follow up on our good form of the past two months!

Only 4 league fixtures from the start of December to the start of January.
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/GHrD177yXtKyCteBogeGoHFleGqCbXwMUE2GH5x4.png
Started off well against a good Munster side, a point was a fair result for both teams. A defeat to Wehen was really disappointing, however our away form has been pretty dreadful so far. A great victory against promotion hopefuls Grobaspach was very pleasing, our last league game for a month. The Kiel game came quickly and it seemed like the break didn't effect as we duly beat them.

No change in position but still keeping up with the play off place as well as only being 6 points off leaders Grobaspach

Going well mate.What a couple of games when you got 6 2 games in a row then fm kicked in and no goals the next game.As i said your doing a good job and can get promoted with a good push.Its tight enough to send you dropping down the league with a couple of defeats or up a few with a couple of wins.Hope its the latter for you mate.

SBR - I was absolutely made up with them results, thought it was ghoing to continue and then that happened! Hopefully, just need to stay consistent through the coming months! I would say we have a good chance with one of the best squads in the league.

February/March - 2014/15
A few big games coming up, many of the teams in and around me.


https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/knMNuzn55Jfn3YNzPXWOUw8ndQz6dspdqPVVydYm.png
The month started off with a big game against Bielefeld, the televised fixture ended in a 1-1 draw. Our second game was against Osnabruck and after our 4-4 draw earlier in the season, I was out for revenge after the got two late goals and the team duly delivered powering five past them. Two more big games followed against Rostock and Erfut and both ended in draws, we February with a win against Halle to stay unbeaten in seven games. We started March with a disappointing draw against struggling side Regensburg before we shipped five past Dortmund, we then drew against Cottbus and Fortuna before we hit Stuttgart for SIX again and I wish we could play them every week! Satisfied with performances and results and we finish March unbeaten in Twelve games!

Incredible performance, Fiel was pinging them in from everywhere!
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/HDLUzoqQsmoPv3SdaSzTztrIt7ANpmVX0z7JQacv.png

8 players named in the team of the week after the Stuttgart game!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/sKvnh6wMiheg8uA4JIkmoZk2XoHb3Kt7tGI3MNxQ.png

We move up two places into fourth and sit two points behind third placed Chemnitz.

April/May - 2014/15
Going into the last games of the season hoping to continue our great form, the hopes of being promoted are very much alive!

Some tough games throughout April and May.
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/TzaWqEcXO55yyD7611E3mjWIdcyi61OT2wLMu3t3.png

We started the month of with a great performance and result against Duisburg and continued in thrilling fashion against Unterhaching in a 9 goal thriller and probably one of the games of the season! Another fantastic win against Chemnitz followed to keep us in the balance for promotion and the title! A 3-0 win against Mainz and our run continues, Stuttgarter K. were next to try and stop us but were unsuccessful and slotted three past them! The final game of the season sees us go head to head with a play off hopeful in Munster and we beat them with no real issues to end the penultimate month of the season in our best form!

Great game!
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/gGPGVAcjap5ckd9dGvvKsH5Z9nX0pNw8FZLeAyNx.png
