It's the latter stages of season 17 and we have the first leg of our Europa League Quarter Final tie against Athletic Bilbao as we attempt to win the competition for the first ever time.

Before the game we take a look at the winter transfer dealings which include a few departures for a combined fee of £51 million and a couple of new additions.

With a nice lead at the top of the Swiss Super League we have the opportunity to extend it with an away game against St. Gallen where two Liechtenstein youngsters will start for us. Before the game we catch up with our league form and our Europa League group stage campaign.

We also take a look at the National Team which came VERY close to making history!

Things are going well but it's an odd league table so far in season four as many teams have multiple games in hand. Whilst our form is encouraging we gear up for a tough home match against former champions, Slavia Prague.

Before the game we take a look at some of our top performers so far this season and the current financial situation at the club.

We are 10 games into season four and although things are generally going well there has been a couple more departures since the last episode. With these exits we have dipped back into the transfer market to swiftly replace them in what is a very new look Teplice squad.

Following the review of the squad overhaul we play Viktoria Plzen at home. They have had a poor start to the season but are looking to capitalise on our recent poor performances.

After the completion of a magnificent treble in season 16, confidence is high as we enter season 17. Following our victory in the Europa Conference league it does mean we go straight into the Europa League Group Stage for season 17 and we kick this video off by watching the live draw to see who we will be up against.

We also take a look at some departures and arrivals at the club and play an early league match against Young Boys who have made a flying start to the season.

After a disappointing season three we look forward to season four with a renewed optimism and with a host of new signings there is plenty to be optimistic about. We take a look at new faces with international experience, English Premier League experience and plenty of quality.

Following that there is the second league game of the season against the perennially competitive Sparta Prague. Do we have cause to be optimistic for season four? Or will it all come crashing down?

It's the Liechtenstein Challenge and it's a big episode. We have the Europa Conference League final against VFB Stuttgart, just our second European final of the challenge so far. As ever, a win would guarantee us a spot in the Europa League Group Stage for season 17, whilst defeat would see us remain in the Europa Conference League.

It's a chance for the second treble of the career too as we take a look at the league season where we secured our fifth straight Swiss Super League title and yet another Liechtenstein Cup.

In episode 23 we start by taking a look at how our first ever Europa Conference League Quarter Final against Athletic Bilbao went. There is then a few departures to report on as we start to have half an eye on building a squad for next season. We also take a sneak peak at the shortlist and a few players I am hopeful of signing for season 4.

We then switch our attention to present day matters though as we are right in the thick of a scrap for a European spot. We play Slavia Prague who are just one spot above us in the league table.

It's just over halfway through season 16 and there are a few things to cover. Lionel Messi has joined FC Balzers! There is an interesting Manchester United regen to take a look at. We also have a round up of the winter transfer window including a player that we have sold for £48m to an English giant.

Following this we play Young Boys who are hot on our tails in the Swiss Super League.

Following this we have a second leg to play in the Europa Conference League last 16 for a place in the quarter final! We play Basel in Switzerland as we try to drag out our European adventure a little while longer.

It's our last game of the Europa League group stage and although it has been a disappointing performance from us, we are still in with a chance of finishing 3rd in the group and going into the Europa Conference League knockout rounds.

It has been a little while since the last update... a season and a half in fact and we catch you up on how season 14 and 15 panned out. We take a look at some new signings including wonderkids and a new batch of Swiss home grown signings. But then... big news... We FINALLY have a 5 star potential Liechtenstein regen. It took 15 years but we finally have one and we take a look at the lad who has already attracted a bid from PSG!

Following this catch up and regen review we play the opening game of season 16 against St. Gallen and a few players are in line for their debuts.

In episode 20 we take a look at both our European and domestic form before playing a game in each competition. First up it is Sporting Lisbon, at home in the Europa League group stage and that is followed by a home game against bottom of the table Ceske Budejovice in the Fortuna Liga.

The team has struggled to score goals from open play recently but can we rectify that today?

It's episode 19 and although our league form may have suffered, our European adventure continues. After Champions League disappointment, we have the second leg of our Europa League playoff for a spot in the group stage. We have a decent lead from the first leg but can we hold on?

We have also signed a former Italian international following his exit from Inter Milan but has the signing quite gone to plan?

We kick off episode 28 by reviewing how season 14 is working out for the club side, FC Balzers. It's the halfway point of the season and some familiar faces have left the club for big transfer fees but has it affected results on the pitch?

Attention is then switched to the national side and our Uefa Nations League campaign. We have a very big match to play but will our young players be able to handle the pressure following some great results?

Episode 17 of The Teplice Trophy Hunt is the conclusion of season 2! We are level on points with Slavia Prague going into the final game of the season and our goal difference is just 2 goals better. Our final game of the season is at home to 3rd place Viktoria Plzen whilst Slavia Prague are at home to Banik Ostrava who sit in 5th.

We have 4 suspensions and 2 injuries going into final day but can we overcome that and complete a league and cup double in season 2? Let's find out! It really is on a knife edge.

It's season two and we have an early opportunity to win our first piece of silverware in this trophy hunt career. We play in the Czech FA Cup Final against Banik Ostrava and look to end FK Teplice's 12 year wait for any kind of trophy.

The suit is on, the 8,000 capacity neutral venue is set, the players are ready. Can we get this career off to a flying start and deliver when it counts, in the cup final?

It's episode 15 and it's a big one, a huge game for FK Teplice as we play fellow title chasers Slavia Prague at home. It's very tight at the top so three points could make all the difference as we approach the end of season 2.

The squad is settled, they are enjoying their football and we also have another fixture to look forward to before the end of the season!

I'm back with another 20 young, talented and cheap players for you to check out in Football Manager 2020. The players in this list range from 15 years old up to 28 years old and should all offer something different for your FM20 save. If you need first teamers, players to develop, EU players, Non-EU players, I have you covered.

I believe these players to be some great undiscovered talents who can all do a great job at a variety of levels. There may not be any of the big name wonderkids on this list but that is kind of the point. This video is for the managers who want to find someone a bit different and who won't completely decimate their transfer budget. There are some true bargains in this list.

In part 25 of The Great Liechtenstein Challenge we take a look at our form in season 12 as we approach the end of the season, to find out whether it may be our year. There is then a lot to cover in what has been a very eventful season so far.

We check out which players left the club (including two joining Real Madrid) causing us to bring in around £60m in transfer fees and who their replacements are. We also take a look at our coaching staff, including a new assistant manager, the facilities, our recent youth intake and the finances of the club.

There is also time to swing by the National Team to see whether Liechtenstein are starting to make waves on the international scene and who our most important players are.
