Gloria al Sammarinese...and myself

Superb work getting to the chapions league final man!

could it be?!

P.S. Liverpool wasn't to be

Thanks man! wished we coulda won!

Ugh deserved more. At least a fucking goal frustrating....



omfg FM-ed.

Dammit. Shoulda just went with the $4.1M transfer kitty oh well.

How did you not throw your computer out the window at this point...

You have played FM long enough too, it was kinda like "yup this is going to happen (after they scored the 90+2)" and I was pretty bemused by it. Annoyed but I couldn't help but give a laugh of bemusement.

Wow, I hope you fined him for 3.6 rating Unlucky to lose in the final, hope you come back next year.

I did Hopefully although I don't know.

Solid Preseason.

Lucky start in the SuperCup against Chornomorets if I'm honest, took penalties for us to pick up another piece of silverware.

3 great league victories followed the SuperCup victory!



That's what I like to see.



In:
Bruno Figueroa is an amazing young Chilean defender; picking him up for free from Colo Colo is icing on the cake. Miguel Velásquez is a godlike 18 y.o. Ecuadorian MC, the $1.1M I paid for him was purely compensation, so in reality I got him for peanuts. Carlos Carabajal is a young Argentine RB on free that can step right into Ahn Sang-Hyun's place. Nikolay Yerofeev is an Ukranian RB that I picked up just for some Ukrainian blood in my ranks. Marlon is a great teenage Brazilian attacker, picked him for a modest $3M. Cédric Kudimbana is another great young RB...an African....I went a little overboard recouping my losses at RB


Out:
Let the ole South Korean RB Ahn Sang-Hyun go as he was on insane $100k+ wages and he was only a 1.5 at this point. Let more young/rotational/Not Needed players go on frees as well. Loaned out a bunch of youngsters and players in the U-21s & U-19s and at Shakhtar-3. Even though Darwin Vélez was a 4.5 Ecuadorian MC who I picked up a few seasons ago, he was bitching & unsettled/req'd transfer so I decided to cash in on him. Montealegre never played a competitive game for us and was loaned out the past two seasons, but I picked him up on a free and sold him for $7.25M to the Biancocelesti . Kurenkov was a great player for us, but was a rotational option and so I negotiated Gala to pay a few million dollars over his value which is fine with me.

Well done on the Super Cup victory and another strong start to the season mate

Matches against Metalurg Zp & Olexandriya required some Halilovic magic and two instances of back-to-back goals being scored by us.

We would have been lucky to escape with a point against Zorya but somehow we managed all 3. I think they had 2 or 3 disallowed goals

Welp, not another undefeated season. Lost 1-2 at home against Tavria in a shocking performance. Fucking garbage



Still sitting pretty




Summer transfer roundup with updated totals.

In:
Rafael Carrasco is a great young Chilean midfielder. I'm continuing the Shakhtar tradition of great South American players Also picked up a number of my Sammarinese boys on frees.

Out:
Loaned out a few rotational & young players, except for Makarov and Churilov who wanted to go out on loan. Sold Raicevic for $10M to Marseille as he had never performed for me despite being a solid player stat-wise and I just didn't really need him.

A great net profit in the transfers

A premier league move on the cards?!

I would take it

Join the premier league revolution!

Ugh. Had to go into these two matches without first choice keeper Guidi...so I knew it was going to be rough. 0-5 at home to Spain really isn't an awful result.



God dammit. Another bloodbath against Moldova at home and another frustrating loss. Ugh we are in the part of the frustrating cycle with the Sammarinese.

Will do if it happens



I hope!

Credit given where its due as you've stuck with san marino well!

Good move with Tottenham

Thanks Johno! Pleased to finally have moved all the way up to the Premier League in this career. Recall our lowly (but awesomely fun and exciting) time in the lower Italian divisions!

Good move, any San Marino players set to join you?

I'm sure Shakhtar will start releasing them in droves, and I'll be here to catch my babies.

Squad seems to be pretty solid.



Brought all my boys in with me

A meh start to my time in England.

Dominated the games statwise against Wolves but it took until 4 minutes from time for our leading scorer Alemdaroğlu to ensure all 3 points for Spurs at White Hart Lane.

Again, dominated the game statwise away at Charlton in the League Cup, but I was playing a rotated side just to try and get a gauge on all my new players and we were shocked in The Valley.



Just need some adjustment time and we'll start climbing the table I'm not worried.

Good luck for the future with Tottenham.

thanks man!

Mixed feelings there. Less cup competition to compete.

My thoughts exactly.

After a manic two months at work, and getting to grips with FM2015, i've just caught up with everything since October. Love it. Good luck in the Prem!
