Andre Schürrle still a good player at 36 years of age,8 goals within 16 matches played. since he came to Glasgow Rangers from Lille for free.but last season in Lille he scored only 9 goals within 32 matches. So looks like Andre Schürrle found heaven in Scotland

Now Schürrle injuried for 3 weeks

: Lucky enough I bought Gaetan Laborde from Laval for 5 millions and he joined Glasgow Rangers 1st of January 2027 so I have a squad which are not depending too much on one setup but I can rotate the players a bit around as I feel needed for the match ahead. When I took over at Glasgow they were number 8 in the Scottish Premiership,now number 4. None lost match since I took over,2 draws or so though. The two upcoming matches are against Motherwell and Celtic.

In Europa League the qualifying rounds went 5-2 after 2 matches against FC Vaduz,then a two match win by 7-0 against Zimbru,then in 3rd qualifying leg it was Atromitos who were beaten 3-2 over 2 matches. The plasyoff round before the group stage became a very big drama,lost 2-0 against FC Metz at Ilbrox and at the 90 minutes in Metz it was 2-2 all over,which sent the match into extra time where Gaetan Laborde(who I first time got to OHL) became the big hero. and gave the win on away goal rule.

In Group A of Europa League 2027/2028 I were drawn into group with Olympicos,PSV and IFK Göteborg. First match at home against IFK Göteborg.

My third season at Glasgow Rangers has come off to a perfect start,after the first 10 matches we are at 2nd spot just after our local rivals from Celtic and partly due to lost first Old Firm meet in my third season by 3-2. Andre Schurrle and Gaetan Laborde to resign after this season but I bought a 25 year old left wing midfielder Craig Pearson from Middelsborough. Within his first 10 matches at Rangers he has scored 4 goals and assisted to 2 and also got man of the match award once already. So I think I already have my Schurrle replacement ready.

Looks like third season will be my big success season,after 26 matches played in season Rangers are at number 2 in the league,33 matches for each team in the main league and then championship playoff between the top 6,so very good chances of becoming scottish champion or at least qualify for Champions League

Now the first 33 matches played in my third season as manager of Glasgow Rangers and I lead the league at that point 2 points ahead of Celtic and Rangers have already qualified for European cups as Hiberian in spot number 5 are almost 20 points behind and there is only 5 matches in the playoff for the championship,and I would say I have good chances of becoming scottish champion.

My matches for the title will be starting against Dundee Utd,Hiberian,Celtic,S:t Mirren and finishes off against Aberdeen. S:t Mirren in third are 11 points behind before the championship series so I would say the only match of real importance for me is the derby against Celtic.

My 20 year striker Mark Duncan now done 21 goals in the league this season,quite good I would say for only being 20 years old.

Champions League draw 2030/2031 for Fiorentina ended up with Chelsea,Sporting Lissabon and Maccabi Tel Aviv.The irony of it all is that I have just days ago sold Olivier Merino for 190 million swedish crowns to Chelsea. Ah well,I hope Pablo Aranburu which I bought for 185 million swedish crowns from Real Madrid will do it nice for Fiorentina in the upcoming season which will in Italy start against Varese and end against Roma.

First Champions League match will be at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea 14th of September 2030,then home against Maccabi Tel Aviv 2nd of October and home against Sporting Lissabon the 23rd of October,5th of November away against Sporting Lissabon,27th of November at home against Chelsea and away against Maccabi Tel Aviv 10th of December.

At league match 24 or so in my 2nd season at Fiorentina I am now number 2 in Serie A. Also sent Porto out of Champions League after first losing 2-0 away and winning 3-0 at home and thereby qualified for quarterfinal against Real Madrid. Will be special for Pablo Aranburu who I bought from Real Madrid for 185 million swedish crowns just before this season.
