S.B.V. Excelsior - September 2015

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/l1A8G2owaza9Z8JoaOQ3KFJkyY1laIRIvQfIJyCI.png

Gutted to lose to Telstar. No thanks to Fischer fucked us over. He put us in the lead and then in second half, deflected their cross into our own net. They got the winner on 90+1

We came back twice against NEC, they took the lead on 44th minutes with Nicolas Anelka scoring. Then we pulled one back through Maletic, Manu, somehow mistime his header and let their other forward score to put them ahead. Maletic saved us a point with a header on 74th minutes.

We completely walked over Ajax B and should have got more.

Ahhhh, What do I say about our result against Scheveningen, we was shocking in front of the goal, we took 29 shots and half of it was on target. Their goalkeeper was in good form, took Manu off at half time for Maletic, thanksfully he got us the winner with a strike inside the box, beating their keeper.

Awful performance against Cambuur, They went 2-0, we came back to 2-2 thanks to Keane and Stans. 2 minutes later, Stans decided to trip up their player and gave away a penalty. Then we just fell apart and conceded fourth goal. Not happy.

Just made a massive coup signing for the club. I felt I need to bring in a goal scoring striker to boost our attacking options. Not sure if Feyenoord will let us have Manu on loan next season.

S.B.V. Excelsior - August 2015

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/9EPJCYPiL9n32lESl25OzcIHGCFuoMo29obkN61P.png

Off to good start to the season.

Disappointed with our 3-3 draw against FC Oss, despite us racing to 2-0 up. Then we found ourselves level with them, til they took the lead in second half, Thanksfully de Reuver scoring to get us a point.


Ridiculous game against RKC, We took the lead, they level etc etc til Manu got the winner on 38th minutes which second half was nothing to report.

Was a tough against against FC Twente B and glad we came away with a point.

Battered Helmond Sport to pieces with Manu getting brace and goal from Lars Hutten.

Ripped De Graafschap apart and we took 28 shots at goal and they took 4. Disappointed it took us til second half to score against them.

I have decided to start this challenge on FMC, I holiday the first season and only loaded up Holland leagues. I was hoping for teams to be promoted to Jupiler League but no one got promoted or relegated. So I looked at Eredivisie and picked Excelsior, who finished bottom in the league.

Board Expectations
The board want us to finish in play off spot. And 3rd round in KNVB Beker.

Pre season

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/gsYh6TvSKDVbHxJqd4qY2VSwIL8zSKwS2iuYPD75.png
Mixed pre season for us. We was stuffed badly against Zurich, unlucky to lose next 2 games. Switched to 4-2-3-1 for last 2 games which players was playing well with.

Current team

Rest was already done before I took over, I only brought in Elvis Manu on loan from Feyenoord (our feeder club link) who already got 5 goals in 4 for us.

Decided to take a look at my old team, and wasn't impressed how Ronny Deila is running the club, signing players and giving them pathetic high wages. When I left Zlatan, was the only player earning over 100K p/w.

Heartbroken. I was trying to sell him for 40-50M and kept coming back with 26M,29M and I kept pushing it toward 40M and they eventually came back with 39M which matched his clause.

Brought in this new goalkeeper for 2.6M, as Diego Alves is making noises that he wants to go back to Brazil cos he's homesick.

Valencia Club de Fútbol - January 2019

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/xd3szca6hFCYdvTn5xNHFHMrypJRWeRU7rD8702m.png

Was a tough match against Almería, We could have went behind on 18th minutes after they was awarded a penalty, which our hero, Diego Alves, saved Darwin Machís's penalty. We eventually took the lead on 28th minutes after Andre Gomes's getting the rebound after his shot was parried by their goalkeeper.

Darwin Machís got a goal back for them, a minute after half time, beating Botia to score just inside the box. Horta got us the winner on 75th minutes, striking outside the box into top corner.

Happy with the way we performed against Real Betis at home. Otamendi got us in front on 6th minutes, heading in Andre Gomes's corner kick. Nenad Tomovic double our lead on half time, converting Gaya's cross. An mistake from Betis's Bruno, which Hidalgo ran onto his poor pass to give us 3-0 lead. An mistake from Gaya let Joel Campbell get one back for them on 72nd minutes.

An brace from Hidalgo saw us beat Real Valladolid. Previous our match, They have beaten Valencia past 6 matches

Disappointed to lose our second leg against Betis but on other hand, I'm happy we managed to lose by a goal. Gaya scored an own goal on 18th minutes. Hidalgo pulled one back for us on 31st minutes and a free kick from Nono on 43rd minutes saw us lose 2-1.

A penalty from Alcácer saw us beat RCD Espanyol.

Disappointed with our 3-1 loss They scored a lucky goal on 1st minutes and Piatti got us one back on 28th minutes with a strike inside the box. Few minutes later he went off injured. Mitrović put them ahead after Alves's parried Koké's shot. Which gives a chance to for our home in 2nd leg. But Otamendi misplaced his pass which Koké scored soon after Will be tough for us now for 2nd leg.

Decided to hand Alonso, his second start up front and Alcácer as AMC (is more settled as AMC now) and It was Alcácer who ran the show for us.

His first goal came from close range shot, 2nd goal was a header from Alonso's cross. And a penalty after Sanchis was fouled in the box.

Gutted. we needed to score 2 and a clean sheet to progress but fell short with Lerman getting the only goal. Our finishing was poor we took 23 shots at goal and only 15 was on target. Andre Gomes has his shot hit the post. they only took 6 shots. Their keeper, Oblak was in good form against us unfortunately. First leg definitely cost us in the end.

Bloody scouting report let me down on this one. Couldn't see rest of his stats ffs, cost me 825 quid (yes quid) He was playing well for his U's20 team.
