FACILITIES
I will keep in mind that Iraklis training and youth facilites are average... not bad, but I will surely try to rise them as soon as finances become better.
FINANCES
Iraklis' finances are in bottom with a bank loan of 200.000euro repayable in a year from now. Penniless and it seems that if I don't get promotion this year, Iraklis' finances will get a lot worse.
I have an 80.000euro transfer budget and a 210.000euro/month wage budget.
Iraklis currently spending about 200.000euro/month on wages... disaster. I will have to decrease the wage budget for sure.
STAFF
I will send home the director of football, I don't need his low attributes, neither his wage.
I will need some scouts with the highest possible adaptability / determination and judging attributes and at least one of them with better tactical knowledge ruther than adaptability in order to scout next opponent.
I can only use 6 coaches/assistants... I will only keep two of the old staff, the rest staff members are totally useless:
-Fotis Gizelis (GK coach) his stats are quite good
goalkeepers 14 / man management 12 / working with youngsters 14 / determination 14 / level of discipline 10 / motivating 14
-Savvas Kofidis (Head of youth development) I could use him as a youth coach
attacking 11 / defending 11 / man management 12 / working with youngsters 16 / determination 14 / level of discipline 6 / motivating 14
I will need immediately:
-a GK coach with hopefully Gizelis' attributes,
-two fitness coaches with good fitness/ man management / working with youngsters / determination / level of discipline / motivating
-an assistant manager with good coach skills, in order to complete my training staff for this year with some respect. I don't care about his advice attributes, I will take all the desicions manually on my own (that means a lot of clicks before the match starts...) I will search for the highest stats in attacking / defending /mental / tactical /technical / man management / determination / motivating.
-I forgot to find a physio... that seems to be the easiest task.
SQUAD and TACTICS
D-I-S-A-S-T-E-R, squad sucks a lot...
-problem: A huge squad of >35 players with at least 15 of them with poor attributes/poor potential in this squad...while the only season target is to get promotion...
-solution: Transfer at any price or even mutual terminations for the useless players.
-problem: No wingers at all, not a single MR or ML (except youth MR Savvas Siatravanis)
-solution: I will have to choose from a tactic with no wingers, with a lot of work from DL/DR, such as 4-1-2-1-2, 4-3-2-1, 4-3-1-2 in any case I will have to play narrow, narrow and narrow.
DL/DR will have to focus on their fitness attributes at least.
I will try to develop some Iraklis' grown players: AMC Kosmas Tsilianidis and SC Charis Sarafoglou seems to have serious potential ability, DC Angelos Papasterianos and GK Enea Koliqi seems to have the crucial attributes for playing their role in the team so I will also try to develop them. DC Nikos Savvidis has some serious potential ability and also all of the crucial attributes for a Central Defender role. If I manage to develop the balance attribute of DR Giorgos Paligeorgos and MR Savvas Siatravanis they could become fine backups.
I will try to use the best of the rest players in order to form the 20players squad I plan.
Here are the two tactics I use:
I usually select control mentality and balanced fluidity, short passing game at a lower tempo, I also select to play narrow, with drill crosses, retain possesion and I use offside trap.

In the last four friendly matches, I tried to raise the morale of the squad plus find out how my players react with individual talks.
My tactics seem to work properly and I think I have made some progress with the talks.
I trained my squad with very high fitness schedule and team cohesion focus, without rest days or individual training.

I change the training schedule to balanced at high work rate, gave rest days before and after the match days and I kept the focus on team cohesion.
I was looking the squads of the rest 13 league teams and I realised that Iraklis had the best offensive players. The attacking mentality I gave on my tactics could help Iraklis' forwards to score many goals against those poor defenses.
I was right and it was obvious from the first matches. Czech attacking playmaker Marek Jarolim was creating chances and Croatian forward Dario Zahora was scoring like a gun-machine. Nigerian forward Onwuachi didn't scored many goals but was always picking some good ratings of 6.0~7.0.
Generally, I am very pleased with the first half of the season. I managed to get high perfomances (7.00 to 7.50) from every player. My team looks unbeatable at the moment.
I have to admit that at the start of this season I couldn't imagine that I would create such a well-trained team with that players.
I used a squad rotation except Jarolim, Zahora and Onwuachi.
GK Huanderson or Koliqi
DCL Brillakis or Papasterianos
DCR Konteon or Savvidis
DL Kontodimos or Chintzidis
DR Boukouvalas or Paligeorgos
MCL Lima or Intzoglou
MC Kyriakos or Pourtoulidis
MCR Tai or Pourtoulidis substituted from Siatravanis
Jarolim and Onwuachi was always being substituted from Tsilianidis and Sarafoglou as soon as I was winning the game.
The highlight of the first half of the season was an easy home win against a top division mid-table team Giannena for the Greek cup competition.
Results tell everything about how well the team plays.
