With Kidderminster having a game in hand, its stil not a sure thing. You have to keep up with the pace in the home stretch. But current leauge form looks pretty good. So go get them!.

Back on my vaction adress, I have reopened this game. Its the save game on my laptop, and I will be playing this for the next 2½ weeks before I return home and reopen my journey man career. Good thing those blogs, I just read through my own blog to see what I have been doing and it made it easier to puck up where I left it 2 months ago.

Against Crystal Palace we took an early lead with Daniel Schröer scoring in the 5th minute. A red card for Palace before the break made it easier on us. But it took till the 92nd minute before we could close the book on the game. Daniel Schröer adding a second on the day.

Next up was fellow promotion contenders Derby County. Daniel Schröer gave us a good lead with two goals in the first halve. Derby came back into the game with just under 30 minutes to play, but David Lynch closed the door. A second Derby goal couldn't chance it anymore.

West Ham United are also in contention for the promotions, so a win here will gave a blow to a second rival. Diogo Rosado gave us an early lead again, and we added a second after the break. But two quick goals around the hour mark brought West Ham back on equal turns. But with full time approaching Diogo Rosado netted the winner, leaving the fan purring, and putting us on top of the table.

Against AFC Wimbledon I decided to rest most of my first team players as the fixture list tired them. My reserves proved me right by playing marvelous and winning the easily 3-1, after being helped by a red card for Wimbledon.

Last match of the month was against Bristol City. After scoring twice early in the match, Bristol did have most of the ball, but our defence was to tight for them and the best oppertunities where ours, but we failed to make it even better.

So a perfect month to restart the game, leaving us on top of the table altho Hull does have a game in hand.

Well it was comming that Fleetwood was going to sack you, considering how hard it was to get a new contract after a decent year. But luckily enough team saw how good you did. So good luck at Wimbledon. That youngster looks good, some good training and some matches and he will grow.

We started the month of on a bad foot. We lost to Stoke and continued with a draw against Tottenham, followed with a weak preformance agianst Club Brugge. But atleast we won that game. After that match it was all cheers, three good wins against Chelsea, Norwich for the Capitol One Cup and Manchester United. This borught us on top of the league.

This will be my last update for a couple of week as I am off for vacation, during which I will ressurect my game on my labtop. So for now:

Only two games in played in August. We scored quick against Fulham, but then we let in two soft goals. We didn't let our heads drop and secured what turned out to be an easy victory. Next match was done within 15 minutes, we conceded a goal in the 2nd halve but we never looked in danger. In the Champions league I got a tough group, seeing two clubs I played last year in the Euro-League. I won twice from AS Roma and lost one and drawed one against Bayern. I feel confident I can get enough points to get through. In the Capitol One Cup I drawed Norwich at home.

We had a very good pre-season, scoring plenty goals. So hopefully its an omen for a good season. I hope to be contending for the title this season.

I bought one player for my first team, and one player that was on loan will be in the first team aswell.

Mark de Vries bought for 21.5 Mil.

Matthew Dowse back from loan.
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/RJ3oCu7AOAxCGu2TnlW1uZzrxxTtyh9eFphxFAWW.png

The team will look like this this season. I have rejuvenated the squad considerbly, and have been able to make the financial situation healthy. So from next season I probably will be able to get in more top class players.

The month didn't start as we hoped. Away in München we had no chance against a better Bayern, I had some hope we could atleast score ones so we had something to play for at home. But it wasn't to be. Next opponent Manchester City was also to good for us and an othe 0-2 loss. The return against Bayern didn't brought us the needed wonder so we dropped out of the Euro-League. After the loss against City a win was needed against Sunderland to keep us in the Champions-League spots. But not having scored for 3 matches, it didn't look good. This match we also had a hard time finding the net. But Sion Rees broke the deadlock just before the final whistle, ending our goal drought. With the team back to scoring ways we cruised past Ttottingham scoring 4 goals from corners to complete a 5-0 win. With the 3th place secured we could free wheel the last match and try to place the crowd. we got a good 3-1 win but it could/should have been more.

We started off the month with e confincing 4-0 win over Southampton in the FA-cup 6th round replay. But the next match ended my undefeated run at Liverpool. A very bad loss against Birmingham, endangering my Champions-League spot. Gladbach was no match for us, wining both legs. 2-0 at home and 1-2 away. Giving us a Semi-Final against Bayern München. Unfortunatly inbtween the Euro matches Wayne Rooney beat us 2-3 in the FA-cup Semi-Final. Next up was the all important league match against Chelsea. We went up early in the match, but we couldn't hang on till the end, 1-1 was a fair result and kept us in contention. It took us an hour to get going against Cardiff, but when the first one touched the nets the next ones came quickly. Last match of the month was against our rivals Everton. Two set pieces where decisive in this match. Putting us joint 3-5th in the league with Chelsea and Arsenal, but we have a game in hand. I have 3 home matches in the last 4, so that is good. But we still have to play Man City, and the others are also no push overs. And there is still the Euro-Leauge matches against Bayern München. So I hope to hang on till the end of the season.

We started of Februari with a good draw against the leader, just to trow away to points next match with a bad draw against QPR. But we picked up again with a good win over Newcastle. In the FA-cup Sunderland wasn't any problem at all. We had drawn Celtic for the Euro-League and it urned out a harder nutt the expected, we got a 1-1 away from home and a close 1-0 win at home. Inbetween was an easy win over Stoke. Leicester was the next win in the league. But we are having a hard time scoring so we depend heavy on our defence. But the defence is doing excelent so eventho we aren't scoring at will, we still rake in the points. Southampton gave us real scare in the FA-cup, but late equalizer by Luis Suárez gave us a replay. Next in the Euro-league was a tough opponent in AS Roma, but winning twice 2-1 made it look easy. And inbetween we hammered Norwich. So since my start as manager of Liverpool I am still unbeaten. And it show in the league, we rocketed up the table and are in real contention for the Champions-League spots now.

A very good month. The new players are fitting in nicely and the results are very good. Especialy the win over ManC in the FA cup was very pleasing. To bad Gino Benitez got injured so I haven't see him play enough yet. The other bad thing is we got a very good offer for Lucas Leiva, and i felt incline to accept because he had only one year on his contract and was already 31 years old. So I sold him for 15 Mil to PSG. I replaced him with Justin Durand which I bought for 5 Mil from Anderlecht.

Good luck - not far form the 4th place. Any thoughts about your tactics?


Sorry I missed your comment, it must have placed while I was writing up my transfers and team.

I will be deploying the same tactic as I did when I was at river, Especialy as there where already good players for that tactic. Only had to bolster midfield playmaker position.

Altho I do hope to reach 4th, I just aim at Euro-Qualification to start with.

First there where some spoils from my time at River Plate. My good results and preformances where not forgotten and I got the Manager of the Year title.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/zR2WoQq3LESMR8E4waMP9MWLD90Rcf2kvPAbK6a9.png

We got to the last month before the reshape very well. Since I took over at Liverpool we haven't lost yet, altho there where to many draw to move through the league table quickly. But we are still moving up. Now lets hope the new signings will settle and we can challange for the Euro Qualification spots.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/I5oJ2vumKA3Z4g474KXevbaFJUcm3Rb75VqpTRTR.png

Now lets see about the reshaping. First the list of players I decided to let go. Most of them just didn't have enough skills for the wage the got, other just didn't have enough skills.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/SqhAgnUyUtIVoI4QbeBLaAQbdKqRcLWKPUqQEQgQ.png

A big list of players I brought in, including one I took away from River Plate. I had three players in mind I would liked to take with me. But One didn't had intrest to join me and for the other one I already had enough good players in the squad. So I spend a massive 60.9 Mil and brought in a 37.5 Mil. So I still got 24.4 Mil to spend which I am going to use to bolster my youth set-up.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/s53v8RDiOtAvtNs64O1gEqnTBSDkVPP3bIAkA6Ps.png

My team will be playing the same tactic as I did at River Plate. My squad looks like this now, I feel I got a decent balance between current and future ability and young and experienced players.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/M5os7Ng45dKTms3evSlG9G9wAwBQkemH7v0vENrc.png

GreekExpress: Yes, I was thinking about the Wigan or Duisburg job. But this month will unfolded a different senario. It looks indeed between us and Boca Juniors again with the derby as decider.

George: We running strongly for over a year now. A new job won't be to hard to find as I am the best manager in the world. It just waiting what will open up.

Two sloppy results in the league, but we did manage to preceed in the Copa Sudamericana. But the team probably felt my reign was running to its end. And indeed it was time for me to leave Argentina behinde. I had a smashing time at River Plate winning the league 3 times, including 2 total league victories. And no less then 8 cups, including 2 Copa Libertadores and a Team World Championship.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/9NoSSuTdUqNro8HuKWacTieX9VlsFGhPfWBrB90S.png

Ofcourse there where options open when I left the River job. Lazio Roma just sacked there manager and it looked an very appealing job. So I put in my application. But just before Lazio would make there decision, Liverpool came knocking on the door. And that was just to good to turn down.

So after some short negociations I am now manager of Liverpool. Ofcourse the team is already more then decent but I have planned out a lot of chances. Selling out of lot of the older long serving members and bring in some new young faces. More of this will be revealed after the next month when the transfer window is open again.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/GFwcmn0zpfFJXCPxHS4BT0tSIfvwxX0j82ITO144.png

What I did this month is clearing out of lot of the current staff members and installing my own staff. Bringing in Zé Roberto, René Gómez and Sergio Comba with whom I worked at River Plate. Bisciotti and Neville where free and I bought Nista and Haber to complete my first team coaches.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/RCYNafwGI57OW7Yb3coz7CaNqRPFilxbe3HLSjDa.png

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/n9QrPurwcj4WndH69E780opPUvYmlZgoDKqLx0ri.png

With the coaching team in place we can now work on getting to the transfer window savely and then reorginize the squad and after that the youth department.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/PIlnOuMuPcxqIRsNfph593I1kPRMreaq3hywtGfe.png

The first matches started of decent and lifted us some places in the league. As we stand now I feel Eupean Qualification should be doable and with some luck and good results we might even challange for the 4th spot. But I have also to consider the rebuilding that I will do in Januari, so that might hurt the results a bit.

An other good month in the league, to bad Boca Juniors also had a good month so we still 3 points behinde with a game in hand. Only last game we screwed up in the Copa Sudamericana leaving us in a tough spot. Inbetween I reached 200 games at River Plate.

t-mase: Lautaro Chávez was a wonderfull talent. I signed him at the age of 16 for 750k and sold him with a profit of 19 Mil. So I don't have to complain. The decision to sell him was made "easy" because I still got great talent to play in the front.
Sebastián Santos; Gino Benitez; Helcinho. And even behinde these I got some comming talents.

This month (+ a couple of days) brought me the next price. Winning the Recopa for the second year running. In the league we had two slip ups. So we have to battle to come out on top again. We are 3 points behinde with a game in hand but its realy close at the top at the moment.

For my future I am eye balling a Chelsea or Wigan move. Chelsea is doing badly in the Premier league and Roberto di Mateo is under presure. Nothing to say about the Chelsea job, they still have a top squad and good funding. So it shouldn't be hard to build a contending team there. The Wigan job will probably come up earlier, but they have been relegated to the npower Championship and struggling there. The positive side is they have a smaal but decent squad and funds to build on it. So the Wigan job would be more challeging the the Chelsea job.

Surpricing move going to England early, but then again Shaktar and Dynamo are very hard to beat in the Ukrain. But best of luck with Bristol Rovers. Realy need to get promoted again or the financial situation will be unmanageble. Squad looks very decent are you going for a 4411?
