Hadn't featured this season and was moaning so I let him leave on a free.
18-year old Lee Young-Joon has signed from South Korean side Ulsan. He has already been capped by South Korea and will probably become one of the countries best strikers. I am thinking a few years ahead with this signing but this guy should also be good in terms of our popularity within the Asian market.

Two more strikers leave the club. Hemmings joined in the Summer but failed to make an appearance and has f*cked off to Turkey. Sanogo is an all round superstar who has left on loan. He is on big wages and Guingamp were willing to pay 70%, Who knows, he may still have a future here but with Akpom and Icheanacho, his time was limited. With Akpom and Icheanacho being here on loan for the season, Sanogo will probably be needed next season for us.

A player I signed a few years ago but it was on a pre-contract deal. Already been capped by Ireland, definitely one for the future.
#314902 Fola's Indian Adventure
Fola
Last season we signed AC Milan and Brazil legend Dida as our trophy signing as I somehow convinced him to come over a play in India. This season I have managed to persuade a player who has played at a high level in England and to be fair, a complete arsehole (but annoyingly good at football). Former Liverpool, Bolton and Rangers (and lots more) striker/ winger El Hadji Diouf has joined me to take part in my Indian adventure.
Last season we finished eighth in the league after coming ninth in the league the season before. I have made a whole host of changes to the side and brought in some good quality players. Obviously Diouf is by far the best player out of the bunch but for the first time in this career, I am actually happy with some of the Indian lads I have brought in. Despite a few veterans such as Dida and Diouf, I have promoted many players from the youth team as many of them are probably good enough for this standard of football. Click HERE to see my full transfer activity and please find below the players at my disposal for this current season. I will do this at the start of each season, just to familiarise readers (if I have any
Goalkeepers
1 - Dida: Has announced he will retire at the end of the season when he will be turning 45 years old. Still has brilliant stats and is currently my captain, would love it if he stayed on in some sort of coaching capacity when he does eventually retire.
54 - Rowlinson Nalik: When this guy was born, Dida was 27 years old. I just hope Dida doesn't get injured. I have set Dida as his tutor so this guy really is learning from the best.
Right Backs
31 - Alex Ansari: Made his debut season for us last season after coming through the youth team. At only 17 years old, he is now our starting right back and has also been capped 12 times by the India Under 20 side.
2 - Pratesh Miranda: Playing his first professional season despite only being 16 years old. Can play either right or left back, not bad quality for his age.
Left Backs
34 - Loukik Lawrence: At 17 years old, he has already been capped twice for the Indian national side. Potential to be one of the best players at the club.
Centre Backs
53 - Abhishek Khan: Making his debut season as a professional footballer. At 17 years old, he has also been capped by the Indian Under 20 side.
26 - Raju Gaikwad: Expected more goals from his flat bullet throw last season but it didn't really happen. Indian international.
4 - Zohmingliana Raite: New signing. Quite pacy for a centre back. Adds some experience to the back line.
3 - Pratesh Dias: Come through the youth ranks. At 16 years old, he will be making his debut season for the club.
Centre Midfielders
8 - Shake Shamsu: My big money signing this window from current league holders Mohun Bagan. At 16 years old, I see him in becoming a good tough tackling centre midfielder.
9 - Jamie Pettit: One of the most exciting players to join the club. Unfortunately, he insisted on a £35k release clause which I will be looking to remove ASAP. Been capped by Australia Under 20's.
5 - Christian Toonga: Joined on a season long loan from English League Two side AFC Wimbledon. Brilliant player for this league, really excited about him.
35 - Gandhi Ansari: Capped by India Under 20's. Good player for his age, one for the future.
47 - Mandar Shinde: First season as a professional. Can play just behind the front man, another one for the future.
Right Midfielders
7 - El-Hadji Diouf: Senegalese international and footballer who has played at the top level throughout his career.
12 - Joaquim Perreira: Come through the youth team this season. Good back up player for Diouf.
11 - Sanju Pradhan: Indian international who is a recent signing. Not to best stats but adds a bit of pace as well as experience to the squad.
Left Midfielders
6 - C.K Vineeth: Talented, experienced midfielder who can play all across the midfield. Will be my starting left midfielder.
13 - Allwyn Vignesh: New signing from the Indian lower leagues. Acceleration of '15'- hopefully be a good player to bring off the bench.
Strikers
33 - James Fernandes: Scored seven goals in eleven matches for me last season. Good stats for a poacher.
32 - Charles Miranda: Finished last season as my top goalscorer with eight goals. Will most likely be a start alongside Fernandes.
10 - Jeje: The highest earning player at the club. Barely featured last season and only managed one goal. I have tried to get rid but nobody is keen.
So, there is my squad and I will update again at the midway point of the season.
#314118 Fola's Indian Adventure

Roll on next season. My main players were Dida and Nnanna. Was impressed with Lawrence and the two Ansari lads, they did really well especially as they have all only just turned 17 years old. It really all depends on who is available in terms of bringing new players in, as the quality in India isn't great. I'll just have to wait and see.
More updates will probably be on Tuesday or Wednesday.
#314115 Fola's Indian Adventure

Nnanna was named the Indian Player Of The Year which is really pleasing. I'll be completely honest though, I'm not sure whether I'll be looking to keep him on next season. As I said, we only get three international spots and Nnanna is now 31 years old, I may look to bring in some younger players instead.
#314113 Fola's Indian Adventure

Last season we finished 9th and now in our second season, we have finished in 8th place so it's nice to see an improvement. Admittedly the second half of the season was not great but all in all, I'm glad with the season. I will be making a lot of changes in the Summer and I expect quite a lot of my players to leave the squad. I also need to make decisions on my three international spots. It was nice to see James Fernandez hit a hat trick in the last game of the season, he will probably be kept on next season because of that.

Next season if I finish anywhere above 8th place and I'll be happy. Improvement is all I ask for.
#314111 Fola's Indian Adventure

Midway point and it's really looking quite good so far. A big improvement on last season and hopefully we can do well in our final ten matches. The 4-4-2 tactic seems to have clicked with the lads. We started off with the Indian Cup where we really seemed to struggle but to be honest, I really wasn't too bothered about that. Star man so far has been Charles Miranda up top, he's managed to get a few goals. Nobody else has really stood out however Dida has shown his class in goal now and again.

Will update in ten games time when the season is over. We finished 9th last season so anything above 9th will be a good season.

#314065 Fola's Indian Adventure

So, my indian Adventure started last season with Mumbai FC with the ambition to make India the best in Asia, with many top players coming to play in the country. Only two seasons in, Brazilian legend Dida has joined the club. Despite being 43 years old, I expect him to be a key player for me. His stats are on another level compared to the lads here.
Here is the tactic that I will be using this season. Last season I felt like the tactic did not suit the players so I am hoping a simpler tactic will be beneficial for my players until they hopefully improve in the future. I thought I would give you a lowdown of my squad just so you get a little bit familiar with the squad in this career. Just look at the difference between the foreign lads and the Indian lot. Massive. I am allowed three foreign players in the squad, four including Asian players. I've found that the Indian lot are not very technical at all, however their physicals and mental stats aren't too bad.
Goalkeepers
1 - Dida: Brazilian legend and veteran goalkeeper. Brilliant stats for this league, over the moon to have got him. He'll probably retire at the end of the season but I hope I can keep him on the coaching team.
20 - Bruno Colaco: Back up goalkeeper.
24 - Nasseem Akhtar Even worse back up goalkeeper.
Right Backs
6 - Ashutosh Mehta: Attacking right back who can also play right midfield. Won our Player of The Year last season.
31 - Alex Ansari: Came through the youth team and at the age of 16, is good enough for the first team squad.
30 - Sukhen Dey: Purely back up for his versatility.
Left Backs
34 - Loukik Lawrence: Another one who is only 16. Been capped by the Indian under 20 squad, definitely one for the future.
19 - Allan Dias: Back up for Lawrence.
Centre Backs
29 - Anwar: Been capped 30 times by the Indian national team but I think he's forgotten how to play football now.
25 - Nihal Chandran: One of our starting CB's, not a bad player for this league.
26 - Raju Giakwad: Possesses a long flat throw in, hopefully I will get some goals from that this season.
36 - Ritesh Perambra: Back up to Chandran and Giakwad.
Centre Midfielders
13 - Ogbu Kalu Nanna: My second international player after Dida. Good quality midfielder who I am hoping can beast our midfield. Offers quality going forward as well as defending.
27 - Asif Kottayil: Experienced and has good work rate. That's all I can say.
35 - Gandhi Ansari: Young centre midfielder who has been capped by India's under 19's.
21 - Manuel D'Souza: Back up fourth centre midfield. Can also play upfront.
Right Midfielders
23 - Dane Pereira: Can play either wing, mostly been used as back up.
11 - Taisuke Matsugae: Takes up our Asian slot. He will be leaving at the end of the season but he's okay I guess.
Left Midfielders
22 - John Coutinho: Pacey winger but it's a shame that's all he has.
28 - Zodingliana: Signed purely for him name.
Strikers
9 - Cornell Glen: Trinidad international and our top goalscorer last season. He is 36 so will be leaving when this season is over but he's a good player for us.
10 - Jeje: Scored eight times for the Indian national side. Has a finishing ability of '5', really shows the quality currently in Indian football.
35 - Charles Miranda - Good stats for the advanced forward role. '12' finishing is brilliant for this league.
32 - James Fernandes: '11' for finishing, pace and acceleration is class for this league. He's only 22 so he could be a key player for us.
Next update will be at the midway point after ten matches.

Went ahead through Iheanacho but they were just too strong. They had Munir and Firmino up top. Firmino just joined for £28 million after scoring 21 goals for Liverpool last season, while Munir signed last season for £33.5 million. Crazy money.
My stint done. Will upload for Cymro now.

TRANSFERS OUT - TRANSFERS IN
As I have made so many changes, thought I do leave screenies of all of our current squad for the upcoming season. We are 1000/1 to win the league and are predicted to finish 14th this season, I'm confident we can do much better than that with this squad.
Goalkeepers
1 - David Ospina: Starting goalkeeper. Obviously well known throughout the world, most previously with Arsenal.
13 - Niklas Lomb: Was our number one last season but will now be back up to Ospina.
Right Backs
35 - Arbnor Fejzullahu: Gives us cover at either right back or centre half. I'm not a massive fan myself, barely featured last season.
24 - Dejan Lukic: Brought in by our DOF on loan for the season. One for the future and may be able to get him permanently if he impresses.
2 - Ryan McLaughlin: Brought in as starting right back. Good all round stats and also pacy which we missed at the back last season.
Left Backs
3 - Giorgos Tzavellas: Starting left back. Was solid for us last season and don't feel like we need to change him.
18 - Armand Traore: Brought in purely as a cheap back up for Tzavellas. Experienced player and again, adds some pace to back line like McLaughlin.
Centre Backs
27 - Leonardo Lastra: Brought in by our DOF on loan until the end of the season. Only young and good back up.
23 - Braian De Angelis: Can purchase at any time for £2.5 million. Bags of potential.
5 - Matt Miazga: Our number one centre half and all round quality player. Can see him being a starter for us for many years.
6 - Juan Manuel Clara: Another loanee brought in by the DOF. Looks quality for his age.
22 - Kim Ke-Hee: Brought in purely for financial reasons. He's a big name in South Korean and gives us access to that market.
21 - Milos Degenek: Was our starting centre back last season but has broken his ankle and will be out for 5 months.
Centre Midfielders
4 - Sam Morsy: Appointed as our new club captain after joining the club from Brentford. Great leadership qualities and midfield hardman who I expect to be a key player for us.
8 - Nick Powell: Never really lived up to his potential at Manchester United, lets hope he can find it here in Germany.
14 - Ravel Morrison: Once dubbed one of the hottest prospects in the English game. Only 25 years old and a player I'm am sure will be brilliant for us. The player I am most excited about.
19 - Hanno Behrens: Played regularly for us last season, good all round midfielder.
Right Midfielders
7 -: Wellington Silva: Brought in by Spanky on a free. Absolutely class player and someone I am expecting big things from this season.
18 - Matthew Kennedy: Back up for Silva and a good solid winger. Good potential too.
Left Midfielders
17 - Marvin Stefaniak: Been with us since the start of this career and a player I am very fond of. In previous Succession Games we have had 'The Kluk', now we have this guy. By the way, 'The Vay' has been sent out on loan, didn't really cut the mustard last season.
10 - Lukas Podolski: Experienced player and all round quality.
26 - Adama Ba: Had a really good season for us last season, hopefully he can continue his good form.
Strikers
11 - Chuba Akpom: Brought in on a season long loan from Arsenal. Pacey, strong and can finish. Expecting big things from this guy. Has scored 49 goals in past three seasons while being out on loan.
9 - Kelechi Iheanacho: Failed to feature much for City in recent seasons. Brought in on a season long loan.
12 - Yaya Sanogo: Best player in the world.
15 - Rouwen Hemmings: Experienced back up striker with all round strong attributes for a striker.
16 - Preben Svendsen: Signed for £1 million from Malmo. One for the future.

Well, not what I expected. We were meant to finish eighth and we actually managed to finish in ninth. The tactic really didn't work out for me and we were lucky in the end that Goa were so sh*t that we managed to stay in the league. The players at this club are poor, especially the Indian players and I will be looking to reassess this in the close season. The majority of these players will be leaving the club in the close season and I will be looking to bring in many new players as well as deciding on a new contract. All I want at this club is progression so next season, anywhere above 9th and I will be happy.
Key Players:
Cornell Glenn: Probably the most talented player I have in the squad and an international for Trinidad. I will be looking to get rid of him though and looking to bring in a younger player to fill in the international slot.
Cletus Paul:: My top goalscorer with 7 goals. Especially impressed with his '2' rating for his finishing. CLINICAL.
Ashutosh Mehta: Won the fan's player of the year and is a pretty good player for this league. Absolutely terrible technical stats but not too bad mental or physical for this league.

As there are only twenty matches in the Indian season, I have decided to also experiment on a number of tactics. I will be using one tactic and then changing it season on season. I have never really experimented with tactics but on this career, I will be using a number of different tactics just to try out which is the best one for me.
Team Instructions
As I said, next season's tactic will be completely different. This is the one I wanted to try and this season, the players are nowhere near talented enough to work with this tactic so I may need to change my mentality for next season. I will finish off this season and then update tonight with my first season statistics.

2016/17 - Mumbai FC - Indian National Football League - 8th

2018/19 - Mumbai FC - Indian National Football League - *Ongoing*

Right, here is my new career and one that I am aiming to keep going until the new game comes out. This career will be in a format which will be a lot easier and less time consuming for me to update and it's something I am really looking forward to. I love doing careers on this forum and love it when people get involved so I hope this career can be a success.
In real life, you have just seen Ramires and Jackson Martinez made big money moves over into China and it really got me thinking about the Asian football market. China is currently the fastest growing Asian country in terms of the players they have and the money over there at the moment. Looking at the countries available in Asia, I have decided to choose India as the destination for my Asian adventure.
I have one aim which is the sole reason behind this career and it is as follows:
- I want to make the Indian League the best league in Asia in terms of star ratings. At the moment, the Indian National Football League sits 25th in Asia in terms of ranking and it is my ambition one day to make that the number one Asian league. I understand that this may take a long time but it is something that I hope I can achieve. This will mean having success with more than one of the Indian teams if I am to make any attempt at improving the league standard.
Looking at the teams in the Indian National League, I have decided to take over Mumbai FC. Despite there being 22 million people who live in Mumbai, Mumbai's current stadium has a capacity of 5,000. The club have the worst facilities in the league and are expected to finish 8th a league which only holds 10 teams, with the bottom team being relegated.
It is my main goal to firstly make Mumbai FC the best team in India and I have set myself a time scale of 10-12 years to achieve this. I want to make money for this club which will then go into improve the club's junior coaching, training facilities and youth facilities. This will then mean that India's new crop of players will hopefully be a lot more talented than their current crop of players. In essence, money = success, not only for Mumbai but also the Indian football market. I am also planning, at one point to take over the job as India's national manager but that will not be for a good few seasons.
In the Indian league, they only have 20 matches and then the season is over so I am expecting to fly through each season quite quickly. In India, you are only allowed three foreign players and the rest needs to consist of Indian players. Like I said previously, at the moment there is not much talent in terms of Indian footballers so I will be relying on my three foreign players for glory. However, hopefully that glory in the future, will enable a better crop of Indian footballers to come through the ranks. I have nearly finished my first season as manager as Mumbai FC and will leave an update at the end of the season, however after this season, I will be leaving a midway season update, as well as an end of season update.
