Champions of Europe!

We done it. It took all of 50 years but we've lifted the trophy with the big ears once more. James Forrest got the only goal in a game which we bombarded with attack after attack.

A few days after the final I got this.. Is it time to move on or continue rebuilding Scottish football.

UEFA Champions League Final Preview

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/rNrKELkJqE8FJFQdCYa48paBV14jDzmVRFOJQsFf.png

In the year of the 50th anniversary that the Lisbon Lions changed the face of British football, we have the chance to repeat the feat. Standing in our way is arguably one of the most successful clubs in the world and under the control of one of the greatest managers to grace the game, Jose Mourinho.

Final SPL Table

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/jZSTipRE298TFXCcLZJjKDowaBFdsbDRsgjn0h6S.png

A decent points tally considering the amount of matches we've played this season. A win over Rangers sent them on their way tumbling down the table. All the preparation is now done for the Champions League Final.

We've made it!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/UmluSN6jLhkUJjQvk5aQrSJ4gD8EJpcFmzu8mVcd.png

We managed to beat Barcelona as they were left with only three central midfielders and we attacked the wings. The fact that they were also missing the little magician helped a great deal.

Barcelona - A wounded beast

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Ur6Hx26xdsX2FSBow2G5gJ80ucUqTfEush9EMzWS.png

This in how Barcelona look going into the first leg, with all of the injured players also missing the return leg. They also have 3 or 4 players one booking away from suspension. We on the other hand have a full squad going into the tie so have a huge advantage.

Marching on!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Ndtxr0qgrHPpfSTdv0DpcdJPlZPAbF9AAiJ8ONAW.png

Another 6 points racked up in the SPL and a vital home win gave sent us into the semi final of the Champions League. The final 20 minutes of the PSG game in France I had five defenders and two defensive midfielders to see the game out.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/bhvatWGpbkYRmkZjaz0GDe3vSvMQHOOUOowPi6TE.png

Only Barcelona stand in our way of a spot in the Champions League Final, no big deal. The remaining SPL games will be played with mostly youth players to make sure my full squad is fresh for the tie.

Quarter Final draw

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

I think we got the luck of the draw when you look at the squads, they are however a extremely good team. They boast the likes of Javi Martinez, Javier Pastore and Thiago.

Got to love april fools..

League Cup and SPL Champions

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/RRTWgpdzGcG7r0vgpWXDSvnxe89rADIqLAnnRowU.png

A strong win over 2nd place side Dundee United the League Cup Final, this sets us up for another domestic treble.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/jHyNhGtscej5SOKpPeLqTsZmuhdtcl7cHJhSZJz5.png

The party lasted a whole week in Glasgow after reaching the Champions League Quarter Final and tying up a 6th consecutive SPL trophy. The table is very tight for the cherished European spots as we could have five teams competing in Europe next season.

Europa League Final

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/hnChUiGiSR79v0FRxQLDt5fH8iuJpfrIINPyTHI3.png

We done it! It may be time to move on if the right clubs available. A good win over Premiership champions Manchester City, to lift the trophy.

We've reached the final of teh Europa League on away goals! Manchester City stand in our way of glory. We drew with rivals Feyenoord in the final fixture of the season to seal the runners up spot.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/qVvCPPu3V2z5xMwg89X33dEZr6exyHU5TbrdT6wr.png

We wrapped up a cup but AZ Alkmaar didn't drop enough points for us to win the league.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/hjNXcNseU7fazQXnzbFDDmcRk8UYNIEOGt2oTgO7.png

A very congested month and the FC Twente game proved vital to the title chase as we would need to turn a 9 goal lead around to claim it. However a good result in the away game against Arsenal puts us in a good position to reach the final of the Europa League.

The midway point

This was a very important stage of the season for us. Towards the end of November the squad was becoming very tired and due to us still competing in four competitions I had to bring in a few versatile players.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/4QL8OGexKkVG2EQRycO6ofwlby4Je1wcnAzv8ye8.png

First in was Daley Blind, who could prove to be priceless in the anchorman role if we are to go any further in the Champions League. He also adds extra options in defence.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/WL9vtRaLvVKV9gRIS6I7EgYKkokA8UsDUs0m9Soa.png

England midfielder Tom Cleverly also adds many options as he can play all over the midfield, he has signed on loan for the remainder of the season.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/sCobvEjmZ8BHL5XQjsktxDI7V47hjqhlUaVEgFhv.png

A familiar face returns at a knock down price, and still has potential to be a great player.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/4PB5WTw3N9JTvGJPQIEgqETp1m0uZqVhSnuWUM95.png

We dropped a few points in the league but still hold on to our 100% home record. We also managed two wins over Rangers who have clawed up to 2nd place in the table. A very pleasing note is that we only conceded 5 goals over the two months.

A very good month for us if you consider I had to rest a few players in the Veendam match. We progressed to the quarter final of the Europa League and have a good chance of winning the competition along with a Dutch Cup Final. If we win our game on hand we can go 3 points off top and give ourselves a real chance of winning the league.

Last 16 Draw

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/LhVxCTgHGKXgz99d2kzeWln9ivKq5o6Sl0zY0C8X.png

We drew probably the strongest team we could get in the draw. It will be a tough task beating them but I think we can do it and go far this season. Both Aberdeen and Dundee United made the group stage of the Europa League but failed to make the last 32, however it should do wonders for the coefficients.

It's been all too easy

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/1T40ZtxJf8LnT26xHVcSwzrmjKFYEyx18tFR8MB8.png

We've won all but 3 SPL matches so far, a disappointing loss at Ibrox seen us drop our first points of the season. The highlight of the campaign has probably been the 6-2 win over Hibs, where Leonardo Mancuso got a hat-trick. All out points have been dropped on our travels so far, Celtic Park remains a fortress.

In other news Gary Mackay-Steven broke his foot aginst Liverpool and faces 4 months out. The youth facilities have also been upgraded further.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/DthH87EMcQeFqBesOLV6Y1pzao1uyKUpNpfzZAYU.png

Champions League progression was much easier than I had expected. I took full points from APOEL, the most surprising result was the 3-1 win at Anfield and then coming from behind at home to claim top spot.

The new look squad

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/bzQ7FXCOVWHctCVlmUz4ShnmkONkPl9DeM9aalUI.png

So this is how the first team looks after transfers. Although some real talent left during the window I brought in a few gems, and streamlined the squad and cut down the wage bill by over £100k. The only player worth mentioning who's contract is expiring is Charlie Mulgrew but at 30 I'm going to hold out and see if he'll accept a lower wage at the end of the season.

I welcome the challenge..

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/sb9K9B7vFF2zjXiPfRMjInzD9i0vm8q6vZyuwcFn.png

A simple enough draw but Liverpool should provide a challenge along with Shakhtar, I'd say about 10 points will be enough to guarantee progression.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/d3h6F6KkgdSbhUWKUFJQca0swjEAaVsULxxlIVlL.png

A great start to the season on both the home and European front. We've picked up some big wins, in which Leonardo Mancuso stole the show. The Argentinean wonderkid has banged in an incredible 13 goals in the past 6 matches. If he keeps it up he's in with a chance of the Golden Boot.

Pre Season

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/riOxUohq81UyFgwnZkTM8Hsn1Q7h5FN8dfr8BTnl.png

Possibly my final permanent transfer, I've brought back Marcus Anderek to offer extra options in midfield. He was a costly £7 million but his wages are fairly low to balance it out.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/FM3bHypagw3dgbnXCyGyl91p9Uo5clNolMk8xRe3.png

I finally got my man, on loan with an option to buy. I'll look to keep him on permanently before the end of the season at £8 million.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/wsaet9RApuLSGcmU3tr4MNHxfV7jdRTBs8vnWxgT.png

We had a decent pre season, only loosing to Premiership side Norwich. We sailed through a Champions League qualifier and face Hapoel Tel Aviv in the next round.

In with the new

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/gaWfUqjJFc4PGZfSfg2wt7zTWUPijHXinGK4DcLy.png


Guidetti didn't get the chance to shine an Manchester City and I snapped him up for free. He looks like a natural goalscorer; good finishing, good composure and hardworking. His wages are subsidized by the sale of Leon de Kogel for a loss of £1.4 million

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/8YrauHHwsWvVvx28iqyQJJQF6zPRP7sgroxTy9Xx.png

Left back was the only position I was desperate for, and being out priced by Southampton by Luke Shaw I found a very cheap replacement. A product of the Ajax youth academy, with a decent amount of game time can be a star.

Out with the old...

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/mmPDWf2MI6blm4rUCTelTPCQqMd6iuUJQmlGBn7D.png

I had to streamline the squad. The wage bill was over £500k per week and we had too many unhappy players. Firstly I looked at expiring contracts and both Tom Cairney and Jake Livermore wanted over £35k so they were first on my list and made me a tidy profit of £7 million. The others were just fringe players and I drastically reduced the wage bill and over £45 million in the bank.

New Budgets
Transfer: £32 million
Wage: £511k (currently spending £370k)

I really hope to get this job and lead Scotland to glory as the squad has great potential with players like James McArthur and Steven Fletcher.
