#154605 Sporting Toulon Var - a shit club in the Cote d'Azur [FM14]
Fantastic
A run of four wins in our last four games saw us return to 10th after hanging around 15th for a while. It was a very interesting season. The most fascinating aspect is just how fucking good we are at scoring goals. We scored more than anyone else in the leagues. Hakin Assad lead the league in scoring with 28 goals and it seems as though his partnership with Wague will prove to be very fruitful. I just locked them both down to contracts leading into 2021, I stupidly only gave them deals until 2019 but at least this way if any predators come running around I can keep them at arm's length.
The bad is how many goals we conceded; three away from being the worst. But you simply can't have the best attack in the league and the shittest defence, all you're going to do is row around in circles. I do think Yilmaz's addition halfway through the season had an effect.
Next season I think we should try and get into the top six or seven. That attack is just too potent to waste with a softly approach, I'll need to bring in some cover in defence and a new central midfielder, but I think there's room for us to get there.
In other news a takeover went through. Nothing changed except the club has a new €700,000 loan to repay, instead of the old €1.4m one. So that is good news, I guess.

Scouting mainly. Occasionally I'll flip open the player search and filter by age, in France the players come in at 14/15 and can be signed for €0, which is what I did with Tall and Baron. Some, like Wague, have to be paid for because they were based in Africa. A good example is this guy:
I can't afford to scout him, but he appears on my player list. Now I think he looks good, but I can't really tell so I'm having to take a risk. I know I can buy him via tribunal for €576,000 but I've made an offer of €175,000. I'm prepared to go to the maximum but it makes sense to feel it out first. There are so many talented players cropping up all the time, well within reason. I mean these guys aren't going to win me any major trophies, but there's plenty of talent to get me to the few steps below.

Bang on where the board wants us to be. I envisage the team dropping slightly but I'm not worried about relegation. Assad has been a dream, getting 13 goals so far in the league. I've got a bit of cash to spend so I'm going to look for a good defender. In the mean time I bought this:
A little Christmas present for me, He cost €300k because of a tribunal, but I think he could prove to be a good partner for Assad.

This season the board thinks a mid-table finish would be our lowest expectation. And you know what... I agree with them. The step up from the National to Ligue 2 is a bit of a leap and there are some decent teams in there that we can not match. My job is, through a war of attrition, to build a side that can get us to the next step. I think players like Costa and Ramos are definitely of the calibre I need, as is Assad. However our defence needs work and I think I need to do some scouting to find a big time player who can be at the club for a while. It's early days, the bullshit of the lower leagues is done, now it's time to get professional and start becoming a wrecking crew.

In the grand scheme of things football is so insignificant, allowing some dickhead from a club I hate the pleasure of upsetting me with his reflected success, the only person who looks like a mug in that situation is me.

This is big time. I put all my cash on the line, and I won. I won big. Next season this shit French club is going to be in Ligue 2. All of this is thanks to Christophe Tall. His sale allowed us to swell the ranks with quality, not to mention he absolutely dominated the league from start to finish.
Look at the motherfucker. He's glorious and he would have been a fucking monster at the next level. With that said he's got a bright future at Bordeaux. I keep forgetting, he's 17, he made his debut for the club at age 14.
The real trick now is finding someone to replace him. I need 20 goals a season and it's going to be difficult to replace him. Long summer, but unlike last season there's opportunity in the air.

What's that, you say? Yes, correct, that is an abandoned underwater strip club.

I'm internationally renowned for hating domestic cups. They waste time cause injuries and lead nowhere unless you're a top flight club. With that said, you have to play them until you lose (and I've been known to throw cup games) so any time you beat a team two divisions above you it's cause for celebration.
Yay.
Now all that exuberance is out of the way I can go back to my day job, dominating green rectangles.

That's pretty big time. Christophe Tall is leading the club with 14 goals in 17 games. It's going to be a sad time when he leaves, but there's no way we'd be in second place without his transfer money.
I'm feeling pretty good. The league is tight, but we're going into games and I'm finding myself getting annoyed purely by missing sitters. That's a good position to be in. If we can get into Ligue 2 then we can really start to revamp the squad and start building. If we don't go up we've got maybe half a season of cash left over and then it'll be back to square one and then I'll have hit the bottle hard. Or my wife, if I had one.
