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!

2029 September World Cup Qualifiers – San Marino

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/WfdZlw0TzT5yfCwLPV0QVzt68W9RPQXBJipVVOy0.png

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.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/y8eQ77Odh88tODQvJ3uBcpNixdI03lPeVqtRBktV.png

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.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/2x41duCFHi8odLN1ldgsxY9hvzfOHZV5fgQEc3OK.png

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

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

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/NVNQ3sHfqt99xq72kOTT8qBYoKo77J1jEchlSwVS.jpg

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

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!

Transfers through 01/08/2029

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/t3pR7OBmRPfxC4Wv6DxlkBQuvCSZUQ09YLuANXXi.png

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

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/uTapfpuKEXJIf9MSexp36e9Om3ccqmwdG8HMdhuE.png

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.

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.

What a game! And a great result for you, pretty even stats-wise as well.

And as an AIK-fan I'm pleased to see Anton Salétros in the national team.

My thoughts exactly!

Haha right on, it's funny that his pic is him so young but in the game it's 2029 and he is 32 with 35 Swedish caps.

What an exciting game!

a 6-4 thriller that, although a loss, was a great AWAY game in Stockholm!!! Look at that solid account we gave of ourselves, I was hoping for a draw at points in the game!
