#61664 What Becks did next...

#291335 Ok, we do Journeyman
Dyrim
A couple of important things still needed to happen before the end of the season. First of all there is the Copa Libertadores Semi-Final. The away leg was only intresting for people with a sleeping problem. This match will be in the book know for how to fall a sleep within 90 minutes. Home leg was a total different story. We where domanant from start to finish and scored three goals to secure a spot in the final.
Next there was ofcourse the league final against Boca Juniors, as I won the first halve of the competition. In a match with high tension, because Boca and River are fierce rivals, we started of better then Boca Juniors and where unfortunate not to get a goal before half time. Right after the restart we took the lead and looked very comfortable, but on the hour mark Boca stepped in on a bad pass and scored from the counter. With both team now going for gold, the rest of the match was real open and chances where there on both sides. But 10 minutes before time Lautaro Chávez brought us the title.
Last but not least the first of my youngsters made his Argentine debut.

With the most insane month ever in my manager career the season comes to a close. With no less then 11 matches played in 30 days (6 matches in last 10 day), the fixture list murdered us. Considring that I feel we did rather well. We got through to the Copa Libertadores Semi-Final by beating Oriente Petrolero 4-2 agg. and Belgrano 5-2 agg. Disappointing was to crash out of the Copa Agrentine losing 0-3 to Indenpedientes. The league was where the fixture list killed us most, only getting 8 point out of 15.
Other good/bad news is that the first of my youngster, Ramiro Navarro has been called up to the Argentina senior squad. But because of that he will probably miss the Copa Libertadores Semi-Final match against Mexican side Pachuca FC. And with him, I will also miss Jules Goda and Semir Stilic on interational duty.

This month we got back on track, our form improved dramaticly 7 wins 1 draw 1 loss. It moved us up to 5th spot in the league and we are only 3 points behinde the second place spot. Boca Juniors ran away this season with the league. But more important we qualified for both the next round of the Copa Libertadores and the Copa Argentina. In the copa Libertadores we get Bolivian squad Deportivo Oriente Petrolero. And we get Unión in the quatre Final of the Copa Argentina.

Not the best of month. It started with a lose against Atléthico de Rafaela due to three conceded penalties. This was followed by a brilliant 0-3 win over Lanús in the Copa Libertadores. Next matches we just couldn't win aginst Velez and not even against Boca Unidos (2nd league nr. 20), fortunatly we beat them on penalties. Against Santos in the Copa Libertadores we got of to a flying start, scoring twice within 5 minutes. It proved to be enough altho the soccer we played was bad. Next up fierce rivals Boca Juniors. I decided to trow away that game as we had a lot of tired players and an other match two day later. So I started with my reserves. The gamble payed of as we where able to win next match. My main focus for the rest of the season will be at the both cups, and not to drop to far in the league.
For next season I have loaded the English and Spanish league as I plan a move towards a major European league. I dropped Scotland and Ukraine

We started of the new season with a good win over rivals Racing Club, espacialy considering our internationals wheren't back yet. Against Colón we scored 3 times but it proved to be insufficient to get any points. As the match was even its a bit of a disappointment. Next match the one goal provided enough, and I can only blame my team not scoring more goals. We had a lot of the ball against Arsenal die Sarandi, but we seemed helpless going forward so a draw was probably a just result. We started of the Copa Libertadores with a solid 3-0 win, which gives us momentum in what looks like a very tough group again. Last match of the month we got a regular victory over Tigre.

I had a decent run in the friendlies if you consider I missed 7 player to the Agentina U20 squad; 1 player to the African Nations Cup and had 2 player injured. So basicly I had my whole U20 squad blended in the main squad for the friendlies.
I brought in 1 player which I am going to retrain to a midfielder; Marcão. Further did I sign a familiar face from my former team Krympteplytsya Molodizhne; Pablo on a free transfer in the summer.
At the end of last year there where some spoils for our team. First we got Jonathan Bottelli making the South-American best player squad. Secondly we had Lautaroa Chávez get young player of the year, with Gina Benitez getting second place. And third Ramiro Navarro; Jonathan Bottelli and Semir Stilic made team of the year.

Running onto the home stretch we didn't stumble. We got 9 points of our remaining 3 matches in the league and brought home the Copa Sudamericane eventho we lost the away leg 2-0. So december is a month for cheers.
So with my main goals already achieved I decided to cash in on the olders players who refuced to extend there contracts.
Sold:
Ariel Rojas to Rosario Central for 750k
Leandro Chichizola to AC Milan for 500k plus 50% sell on clause.
Jonathan Bottelli to AJ Auxerre for 500k
As replacements I brought in Néstor Martínez and Esteban Bono from my own youth set-up to replace Leandro Chichizola and Jonathan Bottelli.To replace Ariel Rojas I am looking to buy someone else Luis Miguel Moyana will be promoted aswell.

George: It has been a great season this far, maybe there slipped one or two draws by that could have been better, but now its up to us to get the rewards.
What a huge month it was and what a huge results we got!
It started off great with a brilliant victory over fierce rivals Boca Juniors. Outplaying them for the whole match infront of our home crowd gave us the semi-final qualifications in the Copa Sudamericana.
With two quick goals in the second halve we brushed aside Belgrano, altho they did manage to get the tension back in the match we easily closed the game.
All Boys gave a hard day on the pitch, and it all looked like it would end square. But in stoppage time we got a very cheap penalty, and Semir Stilic tugged it home to win us the 3 points.
First match in the Semi-Final of the Copa Sudamericana things went our way. Bahia was better on the pitch and scored early. We pulled back with a well exicuted counter. After that it was time for Jules Goda to shine. He saved 6 clear cut chances including a 93th minute penalty save. Giving us a decent position for the home match.
Two set-piece goals by Jonathan Bottinelli saw off Independiente Rivadevia challenge getteing an easy 3-1 victory.
With a away match they dominated we wheren't all confidence for the return match against Bahia. But unlike the away match this time we had the upperhand. And we justly took the lead halve way the first half. But we failed to close the game and they got back into it ahlve way the second half. Both team not wanting to lose it went to penalties. We don't have a good track record scoring spot kicks, but Bahia made it easy for us missing 3 out of 4. Sowe pregress to the finals.
A tough match against Lanús was up next. With the fatige in the legs we didn't play like we usualy do, but a screamer by Lautaroo Chávez gave us the points, but we could have lost that game. But thats the mark of a champion, playing badly and still getting the points.
Last match of the month was the first leg of the final of the Copa Sudamericana. We preasured them from the first to the last minute. And altho it didn't seem to go our way in the first halve, unable to score in numerous chances including a penalty, the second halve we sealed the game in a manner that we are almost certain the win the Cup 3-0.
So with november gone we are in the driver seat in the league and are about to win our first trophy. The preformance gave me an other MotM award. Awards are nice but I love silverwork.

An other month drawed to an end. We started of great, with a win over rivals Boca Juniors. Followed by a bit of disappointing draw against San Lorenzo. The return against Liga de Quito was a formality so I send my reserves onto the pitch, whom even manage to get a draw. The important match against Independientes we got lucky with a over time goal to draw. The next draw away against Boca Juniors in the quatre final of the Copa Sudamericane was a good result giving us a decent chance to get through. And last match we got a very good win again Rosario Central who are high flying in the league. So eventho there when four draws in six matches it was a decent month. which leaves open all to play for.

A two faced month. We started of with a very good game against Tigre, but somehow we failed to find the net. Next we played a poor match against Atl. Rafaela, but got three cheap goals to make it look easy. Then a great match against Liga de Quito for the Copa Sudamericana, punishing them for the defeat in the Copa Libertadores last season. Against Hurecán we where the better side but gave away the goals cheap and where punished of a horror mistake by Jules Goda to even lose the match. Against Velez we went up 0-3 withing 15 minutes, but somehow this wasn't enough to win. So we are dropping valuable points. In the league we are one point behinde the leaders with a game in hand, but it could and should have been much better.

My best month up to now in this game. We kick started the season with winning 1-3 away at rival club Racing Club and then 0-3 away at Velez Sarsfield for the Copa Sudamericana. So with moral sky high we went into our first home match and battered Colón 5-0 with a Lautaro Chávez hattrick. Followed by an other fine away display winning 1-3. Only spot oin the match was conceding the goal 2 minutes into stoppage time. Next was the return match at home versus Velez Sarsfield. As we had a perfect starting point I brought in the reserves to give my first eleven a rest. This decision almost game to hunt me. As Velez scored early in the match and went hunting for more. We where on the back foot the whole of the first halve and lucky only to concede two goals. Second halce we had weathered the storm and where able to play more forward. After we clawded one back, the game fell our way and where even able to win by scoring twice from a trow-in. An other good away win 0-3 topped of the brilliant month. leaving us on top with the maximum points from 4 matches (of which 3 where away from home). Thsi preformance left me winning a MotM award.
Lautaro Chávez has been sheer brilliant this month. Scoring 8 goals and 3 assists in four matches easily good enough to claim player of the month.
But not only Lautaro Chávez played well, a good all around team preformance it was. And this was also noticed by Argentine U20 manager, selecting six of my players for the squad.

Pre-season 2016-2017
We had a decent series on the pre-season. Especialy if you consider that the last 3 goals against Fiorentina fell in the last 10 minutes, when I was down to 10 man due to injuries and had a youth goaly selected.
We where able to sell some of the older players with high wages to balance the account a bit. Only big loss was Leonardo Ponzio who signed for Anji for a wage I couldn't afford, and didn't want to afford for a 34 year old player.
To replace Leonardo Ponzio I brought in two player who can fight for the spot: Gaspar Iñiguez and Javier Barrios Alfonso. Further did I sign an new playmaker: Semir Stilic. From my youth set-up I included two more players to my senior squad: Juan Cruz Ostúa and Víctor Yáñez. And last but not least I signed Helcinho who has been added to my youth set-up to start with. Underneath you will find my complete first team squad and with most likely starting eleven selected.

With everthing in our own hands we started the last month of the season. But unfortunatly we couldn't win our game in hand. We fell behinde early in the game, and eventho we pressed the whole match we only manage to score once. So we where back in the chasing spot as Boca had the better goal difference. After winning the next two in the league, the Semi-Final against San Lorenzo was up. The whole match we had the upper hand but where countered to a just 1-3 defeat. With San Lorenzo next up for the league it proved to be the breaking point in the month. Again we dominate the match but lost two points and probably the league in the dying minutes. A very good win over Instituto and Boca dropping points we still had a chance going into the last match. But early on it unfolded, we missed a penalty on the 28th minute and Boca took the lead shortly after. We tried hard to get the win, but it was all for nothing because Boca ran away easy winner in there match. In the end we manage to get an equalizer, but we had to settle for second place in the final league stage (and overall aswell)

An other busy month. And as I was already eliminated from the Copa Libertadores I decided to play my second eleven in the remaining (two) matches. This to keep my squad as fit as possible so we could make a push for a high league position. We got a win against Lanús, whom seem totaly out of form at this moment, dropping in the league and crashing out of the cup. And we lost again against Liga de Quito.
In the league we had a near perfect month. Winning all our matches including the important Boca match. The most memorable match was against Racing Club. We went ahead no less then 4 times before we could cheer at the final whistle. We are in a real good position and have the title claim in our own hands now. Lets hope we can make the final push.
In the cup we also did very very well and are through to the Semi-Finals. Altho in the Quatre-Final we had an other thriller against Racing Club. We want behind in the first halve from a badly defender corner. We scored twice from a set-piece (trow-in and corner) to get infront. But in the 85th minute they equalized. But Javier Reina became the hero scorring a very late winner.
The good month brought me an other MotM award.

A month with two faces in the two different competition. In the Copa Libertadores we found our Waterloo, getting just one point from three matches. But the competition we went on a good run.Starting of with a victory over league favorites Lanús, then two good away wins. And an unfortunate loss against. Inbetween we qualified for the 7th round of the cup. Our next match is against league leaders Boca, if we can win that we might make it close on top. The good league run was fueled by a good preformance of Jonathan Bottinelli heading home on four occasions from corners and trow ins.
