Oh ya!Valencia!It will be a nice challenge!


Will be a tough challenge Valencia seems to be in decline. Hopefully we can do well this season and finish in top 10, at least.

Interesting challenge you're taking on here. I'm sure those finances will start to clear up once those loans drop off. Who has stepped into the breach at West Ham?


I have managed to sell Alex Fernandez (on 30K p/w) to Napoli for just over 12M and Feghouli (55k p/w) in talks with West Ham after I accepted 19M for him. We are now 19K over our wage budget but hopefully if Feghouli goes then we could be few K under soon. As I'm trimming down the wages so we can build up the finances up slowly.

No one yet

Send all your better reserves to Blackburn


I might send few players to Blackburn

Valencia Club de Fútbol - November 2018

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/uVPoSxRMuP35yQjobTYb7diKywXzquGEypszE8os.png

Off to good start as new manager as Valencia manager. Attendance was 54,803, which is pretty good for my first game Went for 4-2-3-1 formation, We dominated the game and could have scored more.

Nicolás Otamendi put us in the lead on 28th minutes with a header from Andre Gomes's corner kick. Two minutes later, Andre Gomes double our lead with a close range finish.

Happy to see us getting good deal out of him. Will look at bringing in new defenders. As we really short with central defenders, as we only got Otamendi and Botia

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/AVj8T8BLdao7xZiwSVpK68XH3QLFg6w409hE3wm4.png

So now here is our finances after 2 players sales. I did have 10M to spend but adjusted it to keep us under the wage budget.

Cheers, I actually initially offered 25M to clubs but West Ham was only club interested in him.

You should easily climb the table with Valencia, always liked them for some reason, that team they had with David Villa, Mendieta, Albeda, Marchena etc was immense on one of the older FM's. (07 I think) Plus they have a fuckin vampire bat on their badge, so whats not to love?

I saw Valencia play in the Bernabeu back in 2008 when they had Villa, Silva, Mata, Morientes, Marchena & Joaquin. What a team that was!

He was more of a panic buy as Botia is out for few weeks and I couldn't see his stats apart from his jumping reach.

Valencia Club de Fútbol - December 2018

http://i.imgur.com/a76pNhu.png

Still unbeaten with Valencia.

Started December with a 3-2 victory over Celta, We went 2-0 thanks to Alcácer's brace. Somehow they managed to get back to 2-2. Thanks to Piatti scoring a late winner on 90+1 to give us the victory with a strike from close range.

Went for counter mentality against Sevilla, Sanchís's strike put us in the lead after they didn't cope with Feghouli's free kick. Winston Reid put them on level term with a header from corner. We went on counter attack which Fernandez finished off the move with a volley from Piatti's cross to send the fans crazy.

Disappointed with our 1-1 draw against Girona FC. We dominated the game and was all over them but manage to draw. They actually went ahead on 64th minutes with Doyoh tapping in after Diego Alves parried their free kick in his direction. Hidalgo salvage us a point with an header from Alacer's cross.

We welcome Athletic Bilbao, handed Barruecos his first start for the club. He put us in the lead on 43rd minutes after being put through to score. Barruecos set up Sanchis for his first goal after smashing it in from left hand side in the box. Again he was set up in similar way for his second goal. They got their goal from corner via Xiker on 83rd minutes.

Another disappointed performance against Girona. Another match we dominated like we did in first leg. Once again, we fell behind on 79th minutes, Andoni Palacios heading in Ruiz's corner kick to give them shock lead against us. Hidalgo, again saved us from going out, with a strike outside the box with 7 minutes remaining. Sanchis put us through to next round with a winning goal on 114th minutes with Alacer teeing him up to score.

What an brilliant come back against Atlético Madrid. 3-0 down to grab a draw in second half. Disappointed with the goals we conceded to be honest.

They went in the lead on 9th minutes with Oliver long range shot from 25 yards, which hitting the post and went in. They doubled the lead through Aleksandar Mitrović, after Diego Alves's parried Oliver's shot and he tapped it in. Got worst with Godin, heading in long throw from Piovi. I changed from counter to attacking mentality which paid off in second half.

Paco Alcácer got us the goal back, 3 minutes into second half with an strike inside the box after Godin gifted the ball to him. Feghouli, scoring on 58th minutes to make it 3-2 after smashing in from Tomovic's flick on. We level the score after Ricardo Horta, beating Koke, running into the box and booted it into top corner to level the game, 3-3. Feghouli has a chance to give us the win but scuffed his shot in the end.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/BeqrqDkt1mzuZ2Znod1WRwni5LjsLtvln6XkNLPp.png

Came across him after his agent was offered him out. Decided to snap their hands off and signed him for 1M plus agent ownership.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/U88I4ymPZbytgtUFvFylD1owGunukY7icUr1g1jy.png

Signed him for the future, was released by Sao Paulo. Disappointed have to wait for 2 years for him to arrive.

Valencia Club de Fútbol - January 2019

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/xd3szca6hFCYdvTn5xNHFHMrypJRWeRU7rD8702m.png

Was a tough match against Almería, We could have went behind on 18th minutes after they was awarded a penalty, which our hero, Diego Alves, saved Darwin Machís's penalty. We eventually took the lead on 28th minutes after Andre Gomes's getting the rebound after his shot was parried by their goalkeeper.

Darwin Machís got a goal back for them, a minute after half time, beating Botia to score just inside the box. Horta got us the winner on 75th minutes, striking outside the box into top corner.

Happy with the way we performed against Real Betis at home. Otamendi got us in front on 6th minutes, heading in Andre Gomes's corner kick. Nenad Tomovic double our lead on half time, converting Gaya's cross. An mistake from Betis's Bruno, which Hidalgo ran onto his poor pass to give us 3-0 lead. An mistake from Gaya let Joel Campbell get one back for them on 72nd minutes.

An brace from Hidalgo saw us beat Real Valladolid. Previous our match, They have beaten Valencia past 6 matches

Disappointed to lose our second leg against Betis but on other hand, I'm happy we managed to lose by a goal. Gaya scored an own goal on 18th minutes. Hidalgo pulled one back for us on 31st minutes and a free kick from Nono on 43rd minutes saw us lose 2-1.

A penalty from Alcácer saw us beat RCD Espanyol.

Disappointed with our 3-1 loss They scored a lucky goal on 1st minutes and Piatti got us one back on 28th minutes with a strike inside the box. Few minutes later he went off injured. Mitrović put them ahead after Alves's parried Koké's shot. Which gives a chance to for our home in 2nd leg. But Otamendi misplaced his pass which Koké scored soon after Will be tough for us now for 2nd leg.

Decided to hand Alonso, his second start up front and Alcácer as AMC (is more settled as AMC now) and It was Alcácer who ran the show for us.

His first goal came from close range shot, 2nd goal was a header from Alonso's cross. And a penalty after Sanchis was fouled in the box.

Gutted. we needed to score 2 and a clean sheet to progress but fell short with Lerman getting the only goal. Our finishing was poor we took 23 shots at goal and only 15 was on target. Andre Gomes has his shot hit the post. they only took 6 shots. Their keeper, Oblak was in good form against us unfortunately. First leg definitely cost us in the end.

Heartbroken. I was trying to sell him for 40-50M and kept coming back with 26M,29M and I kept pushing it toward 40M and they eventually came back with 39M which matched his clause.

Decided to take a look at my old team, and wasn't impressed how Ronny Deila is running the club, signing players and giving them pathetic high wages. When I left Zlatan, was the only player earning over 100K p/w.
