Will be following this one closely , never been able to get into managing in the MLS as I could never be arsed to get to grips with the rules. This will probably tempt me to give it another go

Wrapped the league up with 3 games to spare. The treble is still on. Can now rest players in the league for the FA and Champs League Finals

I've been playing a weak as hell side in the league to make sure my best players are fresh for the return leg against Monaco, resulting in some poor results.

Absolutely worth it. Great performance. Monaco did get a goal right near the end but it was ruled out for offside. I almost died

Wimbledon came down with the Christmas decorations and quickly fell away. Whilst we have gone completely unbeaten since the last update, until the Monaco game anyway. 8 Wins and 2 Draws in the league has seen us open up a healthy 7 point lead over Chelsea with a game in hand. The defence continues to be pretty solid and Bakayoko and Cole in particular have been scoring a lot of big goals. Can I achieve a treble a year before Fergie managed it?... My next few games are massive

Jordi Cruyff was moaning more about lack of playing time so I shipped him off to Spurs for £2m. He was good cover but I barely needed him so I doubt he'll be missed

The Great Dane plays a blinder in Turin and we're through to the Semi's

Yep, who cares about you duffing Juventus when Newcastle beat Real Madrid 2-0 at St. James'.


https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/9ANjHTlv1pXNWb5JyALYVAwOtI1xh7MwzQl8BOPL.png

Well there you go, into the Semi's also... just

Buzzing after this, we've eliminated arguably the favourites for the competition and the only team I fear left in it are Barca who we were unbeaten against in the group stage... granted we didn't beat them either

Two of the players I had my eye on Neset and Lampard have both been signed by other clubs. I wanted them but felt I had to stick to my no more signings statement. Neset went to Sampdoria and Lampard to Leeds. I may get them one day...

Elsewhere Blackburn have just spent big on Dwight Yorke, Robert Pires went to Juve and Andriy Shevchenko has just joined Coventry!

Love this! I remember having a great save on 97 with Wolves. I had a striker duo of Batistuta and Cantona a few seasons in... Those were the days...


Aye Batistuta is a monster, I'm hoping to get him at somepoint too. One of my all time favourite players

Haha aye, they're doing great too. Not so much in the league though. Probably as Shearer has been injured for all of it. Only made 1 start this season

The last 10 games haven't quite gone as smoothly. Surprise package Wimbledon with a healthy-ish lead.

Too many silly draws and a very poor patch of form in November that just happened to coincide with injuries to Bakayoko and Laudrup. Also crashed out of the League Cup to Newcastle.

Positives - only 5 behind, still only lost 1 league game and only 2 in all comps and Bakayoko and Laudrup are coming back from injury. Plus our defensive record is insane, only 6 goals conceded in the league. Solid

Absolutely nightmare draw against probably the best team around at this moment in time. Some tasty ties elsewhere too Barca v Bayern obviously but also Monaco v Parma, two very young, talented and exciting sides.

Out of the group easy enough. Forgot how different the CL was back then as only the winners of each group go through, with the 2 highest 2nd place finishes. So it's straight through to the Quarter Finals

This guy is really grabbing my interest. Scoring like fun for the Norwegian national team and those stats look great. Really cheap as well... could get him for around £2m. I'll hold off for now though until I decide who I'm selling. A young Lampard is also catching my eye, great stats but West Ham don't wanna sell.

Also just a reminder that if there is any players/teams you wanna check out at any point just say

It's amazing how the Sky commentators are making me hope that Leicester fuck up the title.

Embarrassing bias. Understandable that it's an amazing story if Leicester win it, but still it's pretty awful.


I still really want Leicester to win it... but obviously not today. I know what you mean though the commentary is verging on unbearable. The Mahrez/Rojo thing for me really didnt seem like a pen but they were acting like Leicester were plain robbed
