#289124 Me Vs The World

We have spent £25 million on transfers this year so far and I don't expect to exceed that. The players coming in:
1) Mickey Harrison - An English player! Yay! Takes up one of the slots, so I can fit it more first team players! I hate the limitations and foreign player rules! Spent big, and hopefully worth it. Now an England regular, and might partner/rotate between Suomi and Vaseljevic.
2) Charles Chukwudi - A player sought after since I spotted him aged 16. I put him on the regen thread on here aswell. Now 19, he has amazing stats and only bound to get better! Would like to point out, I helped him gain a work permit by overplaying him for Nigeria - he isn't ready for the level yet, but will be world class one day.
3) Another superb left winger! Might play him LB a few times, as I have so much quality now, it is unreal! I now have a choice of Ivovic, Chukwudi or Girtzikis at LW.
No outgoings so far, although I am looking at getting rid of Omer Oger, Marc Arnaud and maybe Gregory Ptak to make way for the influx of LBs (Flick, Reinaldo and now Girtzikis). He would be good cover though.

I have decided to take charge of Nigeria Under 23s for the Olympics. Gonna have a good go at trying to win it again.
Also, deciding not to spend as much this summer, and if I do, it will be trying to tie down one English player, to replace Fusca in our squad. We have too many 'foreigers' to register

Well, my title agrees to 3 out of the 4 trophies we were competing for. Very annoying, but such is life. First up, Premier League.
Title is mine. We won it by a clear margin this time, due mostly to Man City's awful end to the season. They were top in my last update! London is gonna be well represented next year in the CL! Liverpool relegated, as are Everton! Haha! A clear gap has developed between the best and worst 10 sides in the league!
Kalinic's goal tally wasn't as good as last season, but 43 goals is not to be sniffed at. Carvajal again top of tackling, and Suomi getting loads of assists - he has been the star player this season!
League Cup:
We lost in the final to Wolves, who have been kinda a bogey side this season. We don't need that cup, but every silverware counts! Last 4 years - 1 win, 2 finals, 1 semi final. Good record, you would say?
FA Cup:
Even more frustrating, going out of the FA Cup to Arsenal in the semis. Fucking 'Ell, we got close to a domestic double this season.
Champions League:
Edging closer to making history. Beat AC Milan and Real Madrid, with our teams dominating the matches in my favoured 4-1-2-2-1. PSG edged us, but they got unstuck against Barca, surprisingly winning it for the first time since 2027.
Players Stats:
Very good performance from most players. Our defence were very impressive. The average rating was over 7 for all first team players except Fusca - even though I thought he played well.

#20310 Metropolitan Man
Cheik It Out
An alternative to the Pentagon challenge
An interesting tread has appeared in European football for decades involving the geographical size of successful football clubs, as unearthed by sports economists Simon Kuper and Stefan Szymanski. Whilst provincial clubs in the likes of Glasgow, Nottingham and Rotterdam have all claimed Europe’s greatest football prize, the UEFA Champion’s League has never once been in the hands of any real metropolitan club. In fact, no club from within the seven largest metropolitan areas in Europe have won the Champion’s League- it is time for a managerial journeyman to step forward, put his pride on the line and assume the role of the Metropolitan Man.
This picture is from Berlin, one of the cities needed to complete this challenge
The rules are simple, and the difficulty of the challenge is up to you. Whether you start as a small club from a big city and work your way up or whether you start at a big club and try to flick between cities, it’s all about the way you play your FM game. But the difficult part is simple as to complete the challenge you have to win the UEFA Champion’s League…seven times.
Start at any club that is based in Istanbul, Paris, Moscow, St Petersburg, Berlin, Athens or the new metropolitan area on the list, Naples, and win the Champion’s League. Rinse and repeat until you have seven Champion’s Leagues on your managerial CV. There are little restrictions to the challenge; although just like with the Pentagon challenge, there are aspects that one can add to make this challenge more/less difficult.
City Slicker- start as a club in one of these seven geographical locations, and try to win all seven Champion’s Leagues without managing a club outside of those geographical constraints. This becomes harder and harder if you start to amass blots on your CV, because you’ll find that when you limit the job market to specific geographical zones, it becomes nearly impossible to be recruited.
No Dynasties- it can be tempting after you’ve won your first Champion’s League to start building a dynasty within your city, especially if you’re in one of the lesser divisions and have had to work especially hard to conquer Europe. The ‘No Dynasty’ rule means that once you won the Champion’s League with a club, you have to enjoy those news messages about how awesome you are, pack up your things and immediately resign.
List of clubs you can manage:
Paris- Paris FC, Paris Saint-Germain, Red Star, Racing Club
Istanbul- Kasimpasa SK, Kartal SK, Gungoren BS, Istanbul BB, Galatasaray AS, Fenerbahce SK, Besiktas JK
Athens- Ilioupoli, Kallithea, Ethnikos Asteras, Panionios, Atromitos, AEK Athens, Panathinaikos, Olympiakos
Berlin- FC Union Berlin, Hertha Berlin
Moscow- FC Spartak Moscow, Lokomotiv Moscow, Dynamo Moscow, CSKA Moscow, Torpedo Moscow
St Petersburg- FC Zenit St Petersburg, Petrotest, Dynamo St Petersburg
Rome- Roma, Lazio
* Please tell me if there are any mistakes here. I remember, when Chelsea won the CL, people said that Naples wasn't a metropolitan area, According to wikipedia, it is, and it also says that it is larger Athens, by population. Many people said that Rome should be there instead, and if people want me to alter this, just tell me on this thread, doesn't take much effort. Just don't have a go at me for getting it wrong

I am going to run through my staff options at the club. Of course I am at the helm. My assman followed me from Lustenau, and is called Martin Fiedler. I couldn't miss out on a chance like this for a nickname! He is pretty good though!
I have an array of 1st Team Coaches, all experienced real players!
My best coach perhaps is normal coach Daniel Rugani. I have him next in the hierarchy with club legend, who played 1 year before retiring with me, Vojinovic.
I have the one and only world-cup-blunder Robert Green as my GK coach. Decent.
I have good fitness coaches and youth coaches, and scouts, but next I want to show my targets. As a rich club, I believe this club could collect a few of my favourite players on the game.
Targets:
First up is Diarra. My favourite ever player on the game. Would be a delight if he joined me here. Funny that my favourite ever player on the game, joins my favourite ever team on the game! Diarra and Ranheim is a love in for me. It is a shame that I will either have to leave him or sacrifice Kiddie Fiedler!
Next up, The Tank. Easily best defender I have ever had on the game! Easy pick, and worth getting!
Yeboah. My African trio, all into great jobs! It is impossible to get both Diarra and Yeboah. Yeb has to wait, or drop to being a coach, if he wants to join this amazing team!
A bit more realistic. Not the greatest player, but he was captain at Ranheim, I signed him for Godset and he retired at Baerum. Love him.
That is all from my alternative update. It wasn't alternative, and it wasn't really an update to be honest.

Well, here are our fixtures this years Premier League. Been quite easy so far. Had an amazing spell near the start of the year, but Man City have caught us up and are ahead right now. Got destroyed by them.
The table isn't much. Man City leading, which is not really a surprise, given how much they've spent! We are not far behind, as with Chelski. Liverpool in the relly zone!
Cup wise, starting with the league one, we have beat 3 good Premier League teams, including 4-3 against Spurs, where it was a classic first half. We went down 1-0, then before 10 minutes, we had made it 3-1 with a Tweedie brace and Reutershahn goal. They scored, we scored (Tweedie hatrick) then they scored a spectacular Figueroa-esque lob straight from a free kick. He scored it from the LB area for christ sake as Vaseljevic gave it straight to him!
Then the CL, where we simply dominated. Zenit were the only team to get something from us!
There has been an accolade for my prized striker.
Will bring a different update soonish.
Also, wish me a happy birthday. After a special 18th dinner, tonight, I am gonna get wasted (hopefully)

We got around 25 million to spend again, which I slightly fluctuated via monthly installments.
We made 3 big signings,
Salhi has really good stats, so should start in CB with Hansen, pushing sometimes mistake prone Bannon to the bench. We needed an attacking right winger, with Pavone providing a good outlet here. 11mil is probably a bit too much though, but in the wise words of Mario Balotelli 'I'm Rich'. Last up is Rouven Reutershahn, another arivee from Austria, who will play somewhere up front, in our 4-1-2-3 formation. Having two different formations is key.
Also, got two backup goalies who aren't on loan from Sporting(CP) who have decided to end our affiliation with them, on a free.
The rest of the signings our young players, with a few of them already gone on loan.
Dabrowski, Rata and Ljubicic weren't anywhere near our team, but I reckon I should've made more money out of them.
I have also upgraded our training and youth facilities, and the stadium expansion of a couple of thousand seats is complete.

They spend an average of 7mil per player on 3 different LBs, and we are meant to believe that the AI are realistic. Hmmm?

I want to establish ourselves as the best team in England. I know I will probably plan for this, and it probably won't happen! I'll end up jumping ship sometime!
