I've got plenty of leagues loaded but as you can see the majority, well all but one, are loaded on view only to allow me to see plenty of players. I only have the French league, loaded down to the CFA, fully playable as its the only league I really want to play in over this career and hoping to stay at just one team. Brazil, England, Germany, Italy, Spain and Portugal are all loaded on view only, all the way down to their basement playable leagues.
My inspirational manager is Mr Peter Griffin himself. Just for fun I thought it would add to the story but we shall see. He shall be the manager and with his Sunday League football status it will take time to get players to trust him. He was born in England for this story and is part French. Who knows how! Born on the first of January he has always been a huge fan of Paris FC.
And the team, is obviously Paris FC. They currently play their trade in the Championnant de France National which is the third tier of French League football. They are expected to finish sixth from twenty this season but I reckon with a few key signings we could aim for a top three finish which would guarantee promotion. However despite having a national reputation, the club are only semi professional which is a slight step backwards but with a promotion we may be able to change that. The finances are 'okay' with the club valued just short of ten million at £9.25million whilst also playing their games at Stade Charlety, the twenty five thousand pound all seater stadium.Their facilities are a slight disappointment but we shall look to upgrade them.

Settled down in France and ready to take on the challenge of Paris FC that laid in front I thought it was time to show you what the team consist of, financially, player wise as well as what pre season had in store on the friendlies. This gives me a great chance to learn the squad and tactics along the way.
The squads finances look extremely strong for a club in the Championnant de France National as they hold just short of two and a half million in their ballance. They also have over twenty thousand pounds allocated to them for wages however they are already spending the majority of them, leaving me with just fifty two pounds spare to improve the squad. With no transfer budget we are going to have to sale and let go of players if we wish to bring new people in.
Here is the current squad I have at my disposal over the next twelve months, or twelve days depending on what I decide to do. A new goalkeeper is required is are new left and right backs. Our centre backs are strong enough and we have at least three decent centre backs to rely on. Midfield is pretty strong, just need to add a right winger whilst up front is also strong however we may seek a new striker if we can find a better one.
Here is the current friendly list as we head into the summer. Some of these fixtures may change due to cup draws or ineligible teams as well as me hunting for money from high profile games so I may cancel some myself. A strong mix of home and away games wait for us as I look to implement my tactics immediately.

Having settled down here in France finding a nice one bedroom flat just east of Paris I decided to get straight to work and look through the current staff situation at Paris FC. Whilst I wanted to build the best backroom I possibly could, I wanted to keep the majority French whilst we are in the lower tier of the footballing league. Its something we can build on as and when we go up.
Here is the staff changes that have happened just fourteen days or so into my reign at Paris FC. As you can see I haven't done things by halves I've immediately jumped in at the deep end and done almost a complete overhaul. From assistant managers to scouts they've nearly all gone. And on the other end I have brought in some promising stars which can help take the squad forward.
Here is the staff I have at my disposal for now. Most of my staff have now improved as I looked mainly towards 'national' members of staffing which has seen a good rise in talent. New managers across the board including myself as well as two scouts, two physios and several coaches. I was in talks to sign a goalkeeping coach however the board blocked it.
I know usually getting rid of so many staff members proves to be very costly financially and initially I thought it was as we paid out so much money to terminate contracts. However it proves the finances haven't really been hit and if anything we've continued to make a profit. We've made just short of one hundred thousand pounds profit already this season and the wage budget now has a spare five hundred pounds in it for a new face.

The summer has passed swiftly and before the season kicks in to full swing I will quickly run a review on everything that has happened this summer since the staff changes in my previous updates. After sorting the staff I went on the hunt for new players and releasing some of our 'deadwood' which would allow us to improve the squad. We also tested out tactics over the summer friendlies.
As I said at the start, we had to release players if we were to add anymore talent to the team and strengthen their hopes of a top half finish. Six players saw their contract terminated, which cost us a little but we needed to reduce the deadwood that we could. Then I headed into improving the squad. Our first signing was Eric Sitruk who joined on a free transfer, he may be thirty four but will provide great cover going forward. Next in was thirty one year old right back Guillaume Norbert who should strengthen the back line as should left back Benoit Darcy who at the age of twenty seven will have a good year loan spell at the club. Final signing so far of the summer saw us sign nineteen year old striker Lamine Coulibaly, the Malian striker will have a very bright future.
The squad is big but one which can have plenty of backup in all areas which will help us go from strength to strength all season. Our gaolkeeper isn't the best but we have young Tarek Mahsas who has a bright future. Our defence looks much stronger now whilst our midfield is boosted. Upfront we are likely to rely on Ayivi as our new striker is only nineteen he is put into the youth side, but may be called upon if we require him.
Our finances have taken a slight hit this summer as we had to release players and staff to reduce the wage bill and to increase on and off the pitch abilities. I think we've done well though only losing one hundred and twenty five thousand pounds to date. our healthy balance still sit above two million so we can continue to rely on our strong balance however we will look to continuously improve this. Our wages have now freed up a little too with over one thousand pounds spare in wages should we require it to snap up any new players.
And our friendlies went mainly to plan this summer which saw the confidence in camp rise whilst picking up wins and more importantly scoring goals. We faced nine friendlies come the end of the summer and grabbed six wins, one draw and two defeats which pleased the fans. Four clean sheets early on before we changed the squad around a little however have scored fifteen goals in nine games. Just two games where we didn't score, both of our defeats which we were expected to lose facing Roma Reserves and Frankfurt.

Finally it came around to begin the competitive games and with the opening month of the season giving us four games to play all we wanted to do was get off to a winning start. The squad were previously predicted to finish sixth however with the signings that have come in this season already I feel we can press on for a higher finish. We've made a confident, unbeaten start to life in the Championnant National too.
Our first game of the season saw us face Colmar away from home, a fairly even game could of gone either way, we tried our hand so many times but Colmar's defence were more than capable of handling our attack. A few careless bookings picked up but a strong point to kick off the season.
The second game of the season saw us kick off our home campaign and confidently as we welcomed Carquefou and picked up all three points and a second clean sheet on the bounce. We led after seventeen minutes through Macalou who netted the only goal of the first half before Murcy netted in the second half. We could of had three or four if I'm honest but failed to hit the back of the net. We lost Murcy late on to injury but I'm sure he will bounce back strongly.
We picked up our first win away from home as we traveled to Frejus Saint-Raphael as we left it late to pick up all three points. A game where we wasted so many chances finally opened up for us within the final five minutes as Romas was sent off for the home side. An inswinging corner in the first minute of injury time was nodded home by centre back Charvet to guide us to back to back wins and three clean sheets on the bounce.
The fourth and final game of August saw us keep our fourth clean sheet on the bounce and remain unbeaten the whole month as we welcomed Red Star. They had struggled to get off the blocks this season already and we added further worry on them. Red Star saw Despois injured just after half an hour and with four minutes before the break we were down to ten men as Scotte picked up a second booking and was dismissed. However this didn't halt us, second half we went on to claim the three points when Ayivi broke free of the defence to net a winner for us.
We've shot straight up to second in the league after the opening four games which has pleased everyone at the club, only to be outdone by league favorites Mets. They have made the perfect start with four wins from four games whilst we pick up three wins and a draw from four games. We are the only two teams who haven't lost after four games whilst we are also the only teams not to have conceded yet. We have only scored four though, which is a bit of a sour note, but if we keep winning points will prove more than goals scored.
