I have decided to begin my job search in Hong Kong and Singapore, two Asian countries that consider English an official language, at the beginning of the Hong Kong pre-season (1/8/15). Since there are currently no openings for manager, I will apply for whichever job becomes available first. I plan on managing a club from either nation until I have won a domestic title and competed in the AFC Champions League. At this point, I will shift my search to the Australian League, where I expect to find the English-speaking clubs that offer the greatest opportunity for Champions League success out of the relatively few options available in Asia.
Above is an image of my starting credentials. I will post again as soon as I sign with a club, followed by monthly updates of my adventures.
Note: Screenshot taken two weeks into tenure, hence the studying for new coaching certification.

Due to the timing of the pre-season in Hong Kong, my save has begun at around the halfway point of the domestic season in Singapore. After six weeks of unemployment, I have signed with Singaporean side Warriors Football Club. Despite its history as the most successful club in the S.League, it appears to be struggling to maintain a mid-table position this season, in seventh at the time at which I took over.
The squad looks strong at forward and on the wing, solid defensively, but weak in goal. Most of the quality appears to be older, foreign talent (five out of the seven strongest players), which could pose an issue considering the league-imposed restriction to four foreigners in the starting eleven and subs. A few players will remain sidelined for the balance of the season, including a first-team midfielder who would likely be captain were it not for his injury.
In addition to replacing the majority of the current staff, I will look to find a solid keeper and add reinforcements to the middle of the park. I expect to guide the team to a top-half finish, with my sights set on breaking the top three.

Month in Review: September 2015
I experienced my first match as manager of Warriors the day after signing. We managed to win 1-0, which resulted in my first career win and gave the squad a much-needed morale boost. We were underdogs for the next two matches, playing the second and first place teams, respectively. However, we managed to pull off an upset victory on both occasions -- though at the loss of our key striker in the third match. Two of the team's players were recognized in the S.League Team of the Month for their strong performances of late.
Up to this point, I have been unable to find any suitable Singaporean players to replace my current goalkeeper or to reinforce the midfield and striker positions, so it appears that I will need to work with the pieces currently at my disposal. Although the injury to our first-choice striker is a major setback, I have confidence in the abilities of our young, promising backup. I will continue to focus the team's efforts on playing sound defensive football, while looking to create quality scoring opportunities through time on the ball.

Month in Review: October 2015
We managed to string together two more wins in as many matches to begin the month, before drawing the next two. Backup striker Hazim Faiz Hassan performed well in his new role, scoring three times in four matches. The draw against Home United, who had been named league champions the day before the match, was particularly disappointing, as we conceded the match-tying goal with minutes remaining in the second half. In addition to winning our final match, we need another result to go our way in order to move into the top three.

Month in Review: November 2015 (End of Season)
We ended the season on a positive note, winning our final game. Hassan delivered once again, notching his fourth goal in five starts. Surprisingly, we managed to climb into third position, with our main contender losing a match in which they were heavily favored to win. The Fair Play award was a nice way to cap off the season, considering that we were not in a position to realistically challenge for the title when I joined. Despite his late-season injury, our key striker, Fazrul Nawaz, was awarded a place in the S.League Team of the Year in recognition of his strong performances.
We will aim to continue our strong run of form into the next season, with goals of winning the league title and challenging for silverware in other domestic and regional competitions.

Months in Review: November/December 2015 (Off-Season)
It has been a quiet two months during the offseason. With all player contracts expiring next November, I have re-signed most first-team players and prospects, leaving only a few thousand dollars in available wage budget and transfer budget. Additionally, I have signed 32-year-old Singaporean central defender, Precious Emuejeraye, who will be a key defender for us this upcoming year.
