End of the season update

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/xZ1m7Y6wjLJB4XPulPbMidsAtVOZtX1rdCb3KcUM.png

We won the title when we drew 2-2 against Zwolle. Disappointed that we went from 13 points clear to 6. Massively disappointed with our defence against Everton, where we was winning and 3 mistakes from our defence gifted them 3 goals in last 20 minutes Also against Vitesse, we gifted 2 goals to them. Veltman came off the bench to score 2 headers against us to help Ajax beat us Good to see us doing the double

Had to play de berg in goal in last 2 games after Zoet, injured himself in training and was ruled out for 2 months. Not surprised to see Depay finished as our top goal scorer


Next season

I think we'll be in for a busy summer with most of our players are wanted by top clubs. I will be looking to bring in defender, left back, right winger and striker.

Very happy with our January pre season, I arranged PSG and Universitario de Sucre, club arranged Stuttgart. Got 250K from PSG and 150K from Universitario. PSG was all over us with Pastore, getting them the lead on half time, brought on one of our youngster up front, which he got us the draw. We battered Stuttgart but yet come away with a goal. The trio completely destroyed Universitario. But after the match, Traore is out for 3-4 weeks

Another player leaves the club and that is Oscar Hiljemark, who departs to Shakhtar for 1.3M ( with add on makes it up to 2M)

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/9EVtbIPxPo9PtIDDhXRGrNEdOUQQffw35FA02obz.png

No surprise Now his agent is being a prick, demanding us to give him new contract cos of his form, got 4 years left on his contract ffs. Turned down 7M bid from Villarreal for him. Schalke and Wolfsburg are also interested in him.

Asked the board to expand the stadium, I was expecting them to say no but they accepted it.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/QxtFID0gGoV71IXYkq0AsCEzzODoKzAFMaGMxMeq.png

Impressed with how we started the season. Some tough games where we managed to come back to win (Vitesse, Ajax, Panathinaikos) Very impressed with our trio Depay, Traore and Jürgen Locadia Really disappointed to lose to Feyenoord as Zoet, scored own goal against us Also disappointed not to beat Zwolle. Finished top in our group with ease. Did play rotated team against Qarabağ, where they took the lead when we was at home :eek: We will play Inter in knockout stages, away first leg. Winners will face either Everton or Dynamo Kyiv.

Wish Feyenoord, stop winning Last few games they have scored winning goal in injury time of 90th minutes.

Struggling to understand why I have brought in three strikers ( James, Van der Stoep and Crysan) :lol: Ulvestad have been impressive since arriving (brought him asap instead of waiting til his contract runs out) Also pushed Maher out of the starting XI. James, could be on his way out after moaning about lack of games time ( currently got 7 goals in 10 in all competition) Genk offered 1.9M plus 20% for him which I accepted. I got few good youngsters in PSV B and played one of them against Ajax and set up Traore's goal.

Also signing Bryn van de Berg for 700K in January, turned out well on my other save with Excelsior. Luciano Narsingh will be leaving the club after agreeing to join Sassuolo for 2.5M, was also complaining about lack of game time.

BEST NEW EVER.

Did try to offer him new contract at start of the season but agent said he's not interested cos doesn't think we can match his ambition.

August 2014

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/evzLcvhm4TF4Q3BX0RYWCFGikJUl5c6BguglhYrO.png

Pretty happy with our start, with 2 wins from 4. Disappointed with our loss to Nantes, as we was attacking and then their keeper booted it down the pitch and scored both times from Ismaël Bangoura, in last 20 mins

We dominated against Guingamp, but just couldn't score more than 1 goal. Nomenjanahary, got us the winner after smashing the ball from centre of the box on 47th minutes.

Well, we made it easy for them as Bourigeaud, gifted two goals from his mistakes. We got destroyed by Traore who is on loan from Barca

Deciced to go for 4-5-1 (5 across the midfield) against Stade de Reims. And we played really well and Kantari, covnerting Nomenjanahary's cross and Gbamin scoring from set pieces as Kojic's free kick went toward the far post and Gbamin tapped it in. Thomas Delaine, got us our third goal, with a header from Baal's cross.

Forgot to mention other 2 players I have brought in. Both was brought in as back up.

Sold Adamo Coulibaly to Tours FC for 47K. Couldn't get to sell him for decent money so I had to sell him way below his value. But now we are 5K under wage budget.

Pre season wrapped up, happy with it, we should have beaten Pisa, but has goal controversy disallowed.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/sIjEPtXWjLvlXvmCqUNtrRylfsCnJYhVH1C1BiPW.png

Bloody terrible, conceded 2 goals from header and shot from set pieces Good thing it was friendly!

Our wage budget is in poor state . We're 4K over as has to sign pretty much around 7 players from first team and few from reserves/youngsters on new contract with new wages. Brought in Kojic from FK Partizan for 350K.

Sold Pierrick Valdivia to Nice for 300K.

Already 2 games into the season, will do monthly update

Hit and miss tour of Belgium but very good after that.Made some great signings too.Affelay will be a good signing if you can keep him fit.Rulli and Hernandez will be very good signings I am sure.Looking forward to seeing how you do this season.Some very decent looking regens too.


I agree with what you said about tour to Belgium. Just hope Afellay, can stay injury free for us and get us goals from left wing.

Class read so far. I've never managed in Germany before, it looks good fun.

Do the German national team not get called up though?


Thanks Fola

Yes, they do You just need to remove fakes files to enable it (Look at Real names fixes)

Just joined us for 1.3M, Was pre signed around March I couldn't see his full stats until he joined us. Scout/Assistant Manager rated him very highly with 4 stars. I think we can develop him into decent right back with the right training.

Pre season 2015/16

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/LBY3PEjw5zDytyBai3Z42uBx700WqpM6kGtZqBF0.png

Started our pre season with a testimonial for Filip Daems (who is also our U's19 coach now) Spent 10 years with Gladbach. Arranged a tour to Belgium and which was a mixed feelings for me, great result against Standard and Anderlecht. Other two where was we was terrible and made mistakes which led to 2 goals against Brugge. We lost to Genk by an header. A superb win over Benfica With Afellay, running onto Tim Black's header to smash it into top corner. We was offered a tour to Britain against Doncaster, Bristol City and Bolton which we accepted. We came from behind against Doncaster with a brace from Mlapa, with assists from Afellay and Traore. The game was pretty much over at half time against Bristol City. Afellay was superb against Bolton, scoring twice and getting two assists I'm in love with him already!!

Formation
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Ec9EJpobKcwq0e36eJB0bfBT9BL5VUS8lCX2Cnuq.png

This season, I am going for 4-2-1-3 which successful in pre season for us which we was defensively solid at the back.

We have been really busy in the summer revamping up the team and backroom staff. Have to say I'm delighted with the players we have brought in There are yet more signings to come, so will post them when they arrive at Gladbach. I have also forgot to mention I have pre signed Luka Jovic last season and he will be arriving in January /o\ it going to be bloody hard for strikers to compete for one spot

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/4Za4UDubyIMiaJ6SxH8GRj9e4bw5TxfgfdlmjtW2.png

Brought him in as back up.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/MFBenK60FLOAgkETDCtVBrp4jHfdk4aRlVEEtuOA.png

Utterly brilliant signing for us, Was in battle with Real Sociedad, trying to get them to sell him cheap, They wanted 23M so I kept going down til they eventually agreed at 7.5M. Then he became unsettled and demanding them to sell him to us. He also played the last 2 pre season games due to him just coming back after competing in Copa America with Argentina.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/NPjwAxnRszjmc8yTZco972UaWSkYqnoGCIMCeDV5.png

Fantastic youngster we have got here, surprised we got him on cheap. He's the reason why I sold Xhaka. For some reason the coaches are suggesting I should appoint him as captain

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/ZtSiFhccwkjyC0EY3fADj9GsDHvbpp8RBaflUtaN.png

Happy to get him for 4.4M, Will be rotating for ST spot. Also has a good pre season.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/2GrkyUoM6uCL5dbSGMrNlX14eJl3wNrCaQwamxmh.png

Another back up striker, signed him purely on his caps/goals /o\ He also just made his debut for Canada. Sent out on loan for the season.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Hq5bRJR8SFwlrOCa4asBhY2vFtHKx3I16ZNa9YLF.png

Ryo \o/ Decided to bring him in to rotate with Afellay at AML. Hopefully we can turn him into decent player.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/7NCa9vUM2xUawnuXOJMeaFwAFcb2cA2xsUhcbBCv.png

1.3M for him is a bargain! Just coming back from 3 weeks out. Definitely a starter.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/bJZ6q6OPVCADq58tx4jt2oktGL8NqXwr2VB4ewA0.png

Was offered by his agent, sent a scout for report card on him and said he got potential to be a decent player, so I took a punt on him.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/NouUTXmSMDZTAoxTAz60NcIwcwrNdsdJfIDzhlNT.png

The man Such a shame he's 29 /o\ Is a definitely starter as AML. Played 3 games, 3 goals and 3 assists in pre season Hope he carries that into the season.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/XLZ4NiZLjdXHWvFB7A8BBLN661SkKUEYH7EHVdl0.png

JAVIER Got him in loan and yet to play as he's still playing for Mexico So sent him on a week leave. I have also got 12M future fee agreed. If he excel this season then hopefully he will be Gladbach player on permanent.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/8nTubNOHHZYlHRjMCxbGA1EtdRV2Bk5mV9gYrh0B.png

Traore Beat Villarreal to sign him on loan, already brilliant for us, smashing down the right wing \o/ Did try to sign him but they wanted 50M for him


Out

Sommer - wanted to leave due to lack of first team football, Hoffenheim took him off me.

Xhaka - Felt I didn't get the best out of him last season and under performed so I decided to sell him and brought in Ajer as his replacement.

Begovic - As you know he wanted to go cos of Bayern interest but never made the move for him, Sevilla came in and took him. Glad they did as I would have hated it if he went to Bayern if they actually went for him.

Hrgota - A weird one, turned down Dortmund because he wanted more wages and Yearly wage uprise, so I offered him out to clubs for 20M and out of blue, Koln offered 18M for him.

Not good at all Hopefully with us in CL this season, will see us climb up at the end of the season.

Unfortunately, Begovic, Hahn and Hrogta wants to leave Begovic wants to leave cos of Bayern's interest in him, but in talks with Sevilla after I accepted 15M for him,

Hahn wants to join Bayern ffs ( Fuck you Bayern) Told him he can do it here but said he can't wait that long cos he wants to win CL right now...

Hrogta wants to leave due to Dortmund's interest in him. Accepted 25M bid for him from them.

I have already brought in few decent cheap American (!!) and goalkeeper to replace Begovic if he leaves. still in the market for MR/ML. Just about to finish pre season, so will update shortly with transfers.


Cracking season. Looks like everything is moving forward. Now to march on Bayern!! The added Champions Legue money will be a boost as well I would imagine.


Thanks Ice Man It was tough especially with Dortmund, Schalke and Leverkusen behind us, going into last day of the season. I think it will help us immensely.

As ice man said it has been a great season for you.Not every season you see a gk shirt selling so well.


Yup Was quite surprised to see him making it on the list. But did have a superb season for us.
