Cheers! yeh I had a tough fixture list! Doing decent atm may do a quick update after 10 games!
Ipswich Knights
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
Cheers! Managed to make a few more signings just before the window closed! may do a 10 game update as there is a lot going on.
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
Yes Loftus was fantastic got him back on loan for the prem! Managed to bring in a few more players before the transfer window shut might do a update after 10 games in the premier league. I put Rhodes into a false 9 role and he's scoring for fun! Just read your career very similar to my position too, managed to smash the last games of the season.
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
Cheers mate! Ill get a update of the premier league soon at some point!

Transfer in
Couldn't be happier at the moment we have adjusted well and all players are performing better than expected but BIG NEWS we managed to sign Victor Valdes cost only 175K but as you can see below we are paying huge wages but thanks to the board they pumped a lot of money into wages for me, also late on in the transfers we signed Andreolli for £1m who has ended up been a fantastic asset in defence.
Premier League
We are sitting in 10th which is much better than I expected! But as you can see we have a very strong goal difference which could mean a lot later in the season! We have some fantastic results so far, a 6-0 win over Leicester and a 5-1 win over Tottenham came as surprises the team worked magnificently Ewood park is becoming a fortress. We lost 3-2 to Arsenal which was 3-0 down and felt we deserved a draw, Swansea we was losing 1-0 and won 3-1! Most disappointing result so far is a home defeat to Watford 2-0. We got the 3rd round of the capital one cup which we was beaten by Tottenham a game we fought well but ended up haunting them in our latest game
As you can see below Jordan Rhodes is the League top Goal scorer and Donati who has kept Adam Henley out the side has been fantastic and for a right back is the 3rd top assister in the league
September was a good month Loftus-Cheek getting Young Player of the month and Rhodes 2nd and Marshall 3rd for player of the month.
Player performances
Valdes obviously has taken over Steele in the goalkeeping position and is putting in some good performances, Speroni was supposed to be back up but when Valdes was interested in joining this all changed also Man UTD put a loan offer for David Raya which I couldn't decline as this would be superb for his progression.
There has been huge improvements in defence since I'm going to up against the likes of Rooney, Augero, Kane, Costa etc... Due Donati putting in a worldie of a performance in right back and Henley been injured for the beginning of the season Donati is now first choice right back. As always Olsson has been fantastic again! New signing Andreolli has been superb but has recently got injured Hanley, Rose and Duffy fight for the other defence slot and Killa is now playing for the reserves.
I may as well do the strikers and midfield together as I only have two. Midfield hasn't barely changed all players from last year are flying in the premier league, Lowe, Loftus-Cheek, Marshall and Conway are keeping the likes of Niang, Lingard and Butterfield out the side. New boy Liam Bridcutt has been superb in Defensive midfield taking Williamsons spot. As always Rhodes 10 games 8 goals? Nobody is taking him from the position but back up Alfaro has been decent when Rhodes struggles and is a good sub in the side scoring 3/3 so far.
Club
We are now up there for the leading development clubs for the premier league with 7 players, but one standout player who was recruited for the youth side is this man David Cole, 16 years of age and is already 1 1/2
Also the club has started to begin work on the youth facilities which is fantastic to see and the club is now worth a massive 82M and growing but we are still in huge debt but wont affect the club anymore as we getting a ridiculous income from the premier league,
Glad to see the club is growing and performing avoiding the relegation at the moment is looking safe and getting a mid table position at this rate could be more realistic.

Cheers pal got the next 10 game update coming up!
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
So I haven't been updating much with xmas on it's way and working/University its a busy period!
Anyway we are becoming the Watford of the Premier in real life! Couldn't believe some of the performances we are putting in. Again Jordan Rhodes is banging them in for fun! VICTOR VALDES what a signing he has been making some of the best saves I've ever seen on football manager and is doing a superb job but we are still conceding too many which is a concern and needs addressing maybe with the Jan transfers getting a new defender.
Before the Liverpool game we were sitting in the European qualifications position in 5th Madness but we had to perform against Liverpool 2 days after our past fixture resulting in me playing my second team to rest legs and avoid injury.
2 Loses, 2 draws and 5 straight wins, earned me manger of the month of December which is great to achieve in my first season including a 4-2 win over Man City
Jordan Rhodes sitting second top goal scorer is wonderful to see, 14 goals in 15 appearances, but Ben Marshall has been a huge standout worth £10 million now had to hand him a new contract to keep bigger clubs away 18 appearances 10 goals and 5 assists cant complain.
I already made early action in the transfer market during December making a new record signing Maximiliano Romero just 17 years old worth £1.2M he's a wonder kid and I've heard good things online doing research on him hence I splashed £4.5M initial fee 14 finishing and playing for Argentina's U20 I'm not expecting fireworks but this lad could be the new Rhodes!
Alan Hutton a player who hasnt featured much I've sold for £200k which I made profit only featuring in 1/2 games due to Donati's incredible form I didn't want the lad been upset, also a sale for Killa for free who is getting old and hasn't got the ability for the premier league but thank you for your services
Very happy with how things are going at the moment and I hope they continue, expectations have changed to Mid table now which I think is a more realistic goal but we'll give it all we have!

Really gutted I was worried about him not developing and losing his value! I was desperate for ash for the club and was trying to make money at any corner to get money for Jan! First season in the premier league and sitting 8th is better than I did on FM15. Managed to stable the club worth over £100m now but still in huge debt hoping for a takeover soon to clear it all! Marshall, Rhodes, Olsson, Andreolli (CB), Valdes, Loftus-Cheek and Donati (RB) are the standouts so far.

Great to see should upload some photos show me your squad! I've been away for some while but looking forward to getting back into action!
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
But IM FREE and looking forward to getting back into the season!
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
It's been over a month since I last posted! It's been a busy period with University and work, but it's time to carry on the Blackburn Rovers road to glory! Things have been going very well and didn't expected to be in the position I am in in the league!
5th after 28 games we can now be considered serious contenders for a European spot! But I don't feel ready to take this on yet with still a number of players from last season in the championship featuring in my squad are playing superb but Europe But ill take every game as it comes!
Some great results below, two 1-0 wins over the likes of Arsenal and Man Utd, but also some very poor results getting knocked out the 5th round of the FA Cup by Fulham (championship) . But red cards have been a huge problem... we did do 4 games without a goal and 2 sending offs in a row, I was dreading the Man Utd game but we pulled off a 1-0 win with 10 men all game!
We did another great unbeaten run...
Romero managed to score a fantastic header on his debut but has struggled to make a impact since, hes only 19 and my be worth sending on loan so I don't lose his potential after all he did cost £4.5M!
Just a scene of Marshall performing a overhead kick
But a update of performances in position order
Goalkeeper
Valdes has been a great asset, has made some fantastic stops and important ones, Steele also fills in very well when selected.
Defenders
Donati and Olsson have been the standouts, Donati is form for player of the season gets a ridiculous amounts of assists too! Andreolli has been great at the back but could do with another center back in summer Hanley on his ways out the door very poor disciplinary record and doesn't perform! Most notable is Olsson's value which I couldn't believe at £6.5M
Midfield
Loftus-Cheek is carrying on his fine form from last season, consistent performer and hopefully can snap him up in summer but at £11.25M could cost alot! Marshal and Conway again playing well but can be inconsistent and midfield is area I could strengthen, David Cole is my U19 who is a high potential and is featuring in the first team from cup games.
Forward
As always Rhodes performs and is 3rd top goalscorer of the Premier league 18 goals in 23 games!
It's unreal how this season has panned out, I was aiming to survive relegation but instead we are sitting close to a champions league spot in my second season as rovers manager... Income is crazy in the prem, we are still in huge debt but are more stable, but I think tactics have been a huge factor and I may do a update at the end of the season on tactics and features I use to help people with top league careers! With 10 games to go it's exciting times for the football club!
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
What a crazy season! 2nd Season with Blackburn, 1st season in the premier league and we have managed to finish 6th in the premier league above the likes of Man Utd and Liverpool but it did come down to the final game!
We went on a very poor run 6 games without a win and 12 games only scoring 3 goals.. we dropped into 8th but then when hit Southampton I changed my tactics around and managed to win the final 3 games! DID THE DOUBLE OVER MAN CITY.
A congratulation's to Arsenal they destroyed the league! Still beat them 1-0 a home
Here are some photos!
ARE YOU READY..................
Yes I won manager of the year award!
Here are some end of season reviews
Jordan Rhodes with a impressive 22 goals in his first season of the Premier league but well done to Donati the highest average rating in the squad and cost me £1.4M
Loftus-Cheek again Fans player of the season second year running well done sir !
Going to have fun with this
Been in the Premier league generates a huge income the club has grown massively now worth over £200M!!!!! The youth facilities are also been developed and I am hoping I can improve other facilities now I'm in Europe I need to maximize players potential!
Player Analysis
Again its remarkable how far my players have come and with a number of players still from the original championship squad they have developed so much especially, Rhodes, Hanley, Olsson, Marshall and Lowe!
Goalkeepers:
Both Valdez and Steele have been magnificent, but Valdez obviously has been number one and has made many superb saves and managed to help the club into the position we are in
Defence:
It was a season to remember for Donati 7.60 is insane and one of the highest end of season ratings I've ever had 10 assists in 23 games as a right back says it all. Olsson and Henley as mentioned had a solid season but the surprise for me was Shane Duffy he was rewarded with a new contract for his consistent performances in center back.
Midfield:
Loftus-Cheek worth £20M now at age 21 he was something special! But Lowe the other standout was brilliant, Bridcutt had a solid first season but with a number of players leaving such as Hope Akpan, Williamson, Niang, Lingard and Alfaro it's going to be a busy window for the midfield department!
Forwards:
Rhodes was brilliant again 22 goals in 29 games! Romero is my hot prospect and will be looking to send him out on loan next season to develop!
What a season it's been I didn't expect we'd come this far after 2 seasons, I am going to aim for a Champions League spot next season! But with the transfer budget this summer there is going to be a lot of activity in/out even for staff! SEASON 2 COMPLETE, HELLO EUROPE
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
brabbn
It's always good taking an unfancied team and turning them around from a Championship/lower prem team, into one that upsets the big boys and pushes for title/CL/Europa positions!

Elliott Kinsella-calverley
Yeh its exciting times especially with all the money I'm not used too! Never been big clubs on FM, I managed to achieve Europe in 3 seasons on FM15 so to do it in 2 seasons was special got a lot of signings on the way
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
Cheers Gaz, I'll get a summer transfer window summary done on in/outs
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
Over £60M spent this transfer window... yes I feel disgusted with myself!
Been a club worth £32 million and be under a embargo to been worth over £300m after 2 seasons is a fantastic achievement in growth, we've had to make many signings because I need the depth as we'll be in 4 competitions this year...
We've had a good Pre season went too fast! We start the Premiership away to Palace then at home to Bournemouth
Expectations
Premiership: Top Half
Capital One Cup: 4th Round
FA Cup: 5th Round
Europa League: Group Stage
We are now ranked the 28th richest club in the world great to see and still constantly growing with all the income on sponsors, media and competitions
Our staff is growing at a rapid rate the board allowed us more staff in every department and we are now one of the highest ranked in the league in coaching and physio!
TRANSFERS IN/OUT
So I made a massive 10 signings, I'm not expecting fireworks I know a lot of matches will have to be made for chemistry to develop but here they are:
Andre Wisdom
First signing was Wisdom as I felt I needed to strengthen the defence he was cheap on the transfer list
Charles Aranguiz
Going to be the main midfielder worth £15M cost me £7.5 looks a bargain and could be real powerhouse
M'Baye Niang
He's back but full-time! Had a good season last year fans enjoyed him and will be fighting with Marshall for a role on the right wing
Joshua Guilavogui
Never heard of this lad but looks solid in defensive midfield and Bridcutt will be back up has fantastic physical and mental attributes
Horour Magnusson
Looks a gem in defence, bought for £1.2m from Juventus worth £7.5M now since I've sold a lot of my defenders this was a key area to strengthen
Gael Clichy
Well known to Arsenal and City fans, he was released by City so bought on a free on of the highest profile signings at the club a great capture with him a Marcus Olsson in Left back
Alejandro Gomez
Was a expensive buy, he's to take over the role on the left wing he has joined but still hasn't gained a work permit, hoping it gets sorted soon as my left side is a man down and currently looking for a short term loan.
Gerard Moreno
The most expensive buy in the history of the club costing £15M bought from Espanyol, managed 24 goals in 37 games last year for Espanyol I hope he can rip the BPL apart and put Rhodes on his feet for first spot
Fabian Frei
Great scout report again to strengthen the middle of the field as Butterfield I don't feel is good enough anymore current international in for a good season
Ruben Loftus-cheek
Fan Favorite for two seasons in a row I tried to sign him permanent but Chelsea wanted £45m! Yes he is worth it.... averages over 7.30 a season so yes we have him on loan once more!
Overall costs in/out
10 signings £62M spent, yes there's a lot to do and a lot of chemistry to be built but with this squad and some of the quality players I have brought in I feel very confident a lot of competition for places now. We have generated under £2m yes very poor but these players weren't worth much they was going out for contract so helped the wages a lot, either way we made 100% profit on Alfaro as I signed him on a free.
There might be a bit more activity yet... The Left wing is looking very week atm with just Conway to fill, but every other position has depth and pure quality. From how much I paid for the signings to how much they are in value in a few weeks has had a massive increase of £52M without the season even starting!
Elliott Kinsella-calverley
I'll be looking to update the Road to Glory every 10 games or so.... Let's hope for a successful season in Europe!
