Fantastic months Superb win over Portsmouth. Pashev looks fantastic

Unlucky to lose to Juventus, but hopefully you will blow them away in 2nd leg

If its one of the maybe wolves.Pretty sure they have good facilities.Leali never made Italy squad on my save.Currently they have sirigu,consigli and scuffet.All are better than leali.

Dundee United or Aberdeen for me, they could be more likely to get game time in Scotland.


I'm tempted to go for Scotland clubs as I have sent few to English clubs and not playing them often as they said they would.

More likely to go for either Dundee United or Aberdeen. Depends who got better facilities

They translate as Manager of the Year and Manager's Manager of the Year. Nice.

http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p11/KEZ_7/Inter%20Milan/TOTY2016_zps1459fdbe.png

We're well represented in Team of the Year, each of those featured have won Player of the Year for their respective positions and Palacio ended up top scorer with 29 goals, 9 ahead of second place Tevez (forgot the screenshot). I'm surprised to see Kovacic in there considering he left after 17 games but it just shows how monumental he was. Our keeper Scuffet came 2nd in Goalkeeper of the Year.

Transfer News

Gutted about this. It's also curious on the grounds that we're in the CL so have a chance... Florenzi joined us FROM City for that very reason and yet our stand-out performer for the year, Santon sees it in reverse.

This really has made me question if it's going to be worth battling on in a new season with Inter. So far I've had offers from Arsenal (6th in the Prem), Valencia (4th in La Liga) and Bayern (2nd in the Bundesliga). Who knows what might happen.


To be honest, I think Valencia does offer a good challenge as they got decent players in the team and try and break Real/Barca domination.

But it's your decision

My laptop restarted on its own last night and I lost a full month.Seems all you can do to protect your game properly is do a rolling autosave every week and do the same for a backup.Wouldnt mind but its takes about 2 minutes to save every time.


I'm going to do auto save each week, It happened few weeks ago as well. Bloody FM.

Fingers crossed for some good youth players to make up for it crashing at-least.

Out of curiosity has Leali broken into Italys first-team or is Sirigu holding him back? I think you should loan the Dutch lad out as well but just make sure he gets starting time. Could be a bit like Courtois when he returns


I have just updated my youth intakes Tad better than last

Re Leali, He is yet to break into Italy first team. Italy currently have Rulli, Consigli and Viviano (both are in their 30's) I'm not surprised as he has been hit and miss for us so far.

At the moment, the clubs I've drawn up (whenever I get a chance to ask to the board to get one) to send youngsters on loan are Dundee United, Abredeen, Wolves, Charlton. Any ideas what club I should look at?

Youth intakes V2

After FM fucked off last night so I has to do my youth intakes again, but this time it's slightly better.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Xo7MFtSjzFsbRkPS07NY4SHkd3KyrJp4AkMGwYSP.png

Players I'm offering contract to -

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/gOKh1BfCHNSWIoqWyzlOdzLMhiekEqi9tUWouzlt.png

HOYD rated him very highly but I disagree, hope he proves me wrong. Dual nationally as well ( English and South African) will be hard to pronounce his name

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/bk3SBP6xsMWwcaCHHIjJxijnyHGfkv9vVqApC7xL.png

Argentine nationally pop up ( Probably due to Crespo at the club) He looks promising but need working on his marking, tackling and jumping reach.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/5ITOeWqx45jhxJBehZW3b4WdP3CW9hMkCnbxfMik.png

Another promising player and hopefully I can turn him into good keeper in few years time.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/vrnbwaM6gkDvkNyLBqqBdJlOPhby6uQWSgeoRJsN.png

Good to see us getting English winger. Going to try and get Lennon/Murphy to tutor him. Will probably get game time in cups next season.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/DVrGt7EgIJLIhFIJsepxqUzzxqzjbGRBAqyZTyB2.png

I would say he is the best pick out of the intakes this season Very promising defender. Will get Vida/Tah to tutor him if they willing to.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/GHd1ZAtw7deFrhLAU2sPn8KP2KRY8HHJcJJ2S79A.png

We got a Russian regen From our link with Arsienal Tula. But I think he just literally joined them.

One thing I personally would definitely do is loan the dutch lad out.I bought this lad simone piras from Vancouver.Loaned him out for 2 years and had this bog standard polish gk as backup to johnstone.Didnt think I would end up getting that Portuguese gk and had it in me head johnstone would be number 1 for a few years and piras would take over from him but ended up getting oliveira in instead.Now piras is my back up and maybe become number 1.At 17/18 heis too young I reckon.


Just make sure if you do loan him out he is first team regular or key player.If he only lays a handful of games there isn't much point in the loan.


I am going to try and loan him out whoever guarantee him playing time. Or send him to Russia, or wait til feeder club button comes available so I can get a club to send youngsters there. I also have Boreham Wood as my feeder.

Is leali your 1st or 2nd choice or do you mean when that dutch lad arrives?If you mean when he arrives I would keep him and loan the dutch lad out.I think top 4 isn't out of your reach and very possible too mate.


Yes, Leali is our first choice keeper. He has conceded 57 goals in 41 appearance and 9 clean sheets. I'm swaying toward keeping him and loan the kid out for game time.

Signing this youngster for next season. Cost me 4.4M. Got big future of him.

I'm not sure what to do with Leali, might sell him or keep him for another season. Any suggestions?


I believe that you can finish 4th ! Perfect month and good cup victory.Good luck for the next games . With a good run of games in the league you can finish 4th


Who knows Would be amazing if we could.

February 2018

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/1ZM5ah2cCfCSUrV8QqmqUYPECYeXUOKtj1Y2yCB6.png

Another almost perfect month from us.

We was dreadful against Wigan and was lucky to escape DW Stadium with a point

YASSSSS. I went for defensive mentality against Man City and it paid off as we started brightly, with Yaya Toure diverting Porsan-Clemente's shot into his own net to give us the lead. Matija Nastasić got them level with header from corner on 30th minutes. Jacob Murphy got us the winner with 5 minutes remaining after tapping in after Hart made mistake.

Arsenal were better than us but we beat them thanks to Vida heading in from corner to give us the win.

YES. Fuck you Mourinho! I rotated few players against Chelsea. We got awarded a penalty after Fischer got tripped up by Zouma which Sigurðsson smashed it into top corner to see us knocking them out.

Was a tough match against VFL Wolfsburg. We went behind on 22nd minutes after Tah made a suicidal backpass which Filip Djordjevic ran onto it to put them ahead. We pegged them back straight away with Clemente striking inside the box to level the score. Mark Noble's penalty on 49th minutes put us in front. Took Clemente off for Huntelaar and which paid off with him getting our third goal to give us 2 goals lead for our 2nd leg in Germany.

Sad day for the club

So frustrating against Liverpool. Also went for defensive mentality and started well, Had to play Fischer as AMC due to Sigurðsson's injury. He took us in front on 18th minutes with a strike just outside the box. We was heading toward half time with us in front, until Cabeção made a mistake to gift Sturridge, his first goal on stroke of half time. All of sudden, Leali made stupid mistake and gifted Balotelli his goal to put them ahead. FFS then Isimat-Mirin tripped up Sturridge on 87th minutes, in the penalty to give him his second goal by converting the penalty to send us crashing.

Barclays Premier League table

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/EQSzuGbkFQ65CyBUwdG8hBEmzklFSLJulRspnaxz.png

Only 3 points behind Man City, just hope we can go on good run for 4th.

FA Cup Sixth Round draw

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/W0C9F1Vzw0wkA67kpmozIo3JoBoKwc5MUfa3qfSP.png

Another tough draw against our rival Some reason I'm confident of knocking them out.

New feeder club link

Board decided to pick up few average clubs for our new links so I decided to pick a Russian club so hopefully I can nab few regens from the club.

Spent awfully alot yesterday looking at regens for next season I'm willing to let few players go in the summer as they ain't getting game time here.

I have also removed Portugal and South Africa leagues and added Russian top division from next season.


Got to say thanks to SBR and Burnley career for inspiring me to play my West Ham save again
