#778433 The Pentagon Challenge
Cooizzo
Season 1
Applied to every available job around the world.
Got a couple of interviews, Asia and Africa. Good continents to start.
Finally decided to take the Black Leopards job in South Africa's second division.
First order of business, asking board for qualifications training, as that is the first thing i need to worry about. Getting better as a manager will get me the oportunity to manage better clubs and to get closer to the main objective.
Season started pretty rocky as there is no money for salaries, let alone transfers. Managed to get Emanuel Fernandes as a loan from Sporting CP. His performances helped to settle the defense even though the keeper conceded 2 out of every 3 shots on goal.
Latter in the season, spent some time top of the table but a stellar display from Tuks FC winning every single game in the closing match weeks settled the championchip race.
We qualified for the promotion playoff! Great result as we were not favourites to do so.
Playing two top tier teams wasn't looking very promissing with our defensive record, but we eventually ran away with it!
Great result for the first season, getting a promotion to the top tier.
As for the cup results, we got eliminated in the first round.
Future was looking promissing, but…
Club board kept rejecting my requests for qualifications training. There was no money to sign players. There was no money to renew contracts.
So, after much consideration I decided to resign after the first season. I have very clear objectives. Get qualifications as high as possible as soon as possible.
This was pretty much it for the first season.
Off we go, unemployed again!

2nd Job in Vitória SC
As the 2nd season progressed, came the VSC proposal, as well as a Chicago Fire one. Bored from international duty and club unemployment, decided to take the portuguese offer. VSC were sitting 16th at the table and things weren't looking good. But with a young and promissing team the match was perfect and after some good games managed to get all the way up to 8th, and more surprisingly, managing to grab the portuguese cup from the penalty spot against Benfica. The UEL qualification came with a 22M€ transfer budget that would prove to be the key for me to stay at the club for a second season.
Now expecting a solid UEL run and maybe try a Champions League qualification spot in the league.
Some young tallents decided to stay at the club so things may get interesting!

1st job in marseille.
Came in with the team in 17th place but just 12 points of 2nd place. 5 defeats in the Champions league.
Managed to comeback to 2nd place and win the Cup of France.
Decided to leave because the board gave a 2M€ transfer budget. Also, Marseille is not the greatest club to win the Champions League.
At the end of the season, came the Assie Job. As I was unemployed at the time, it looked like fun to spend some time managing a national team while no club job appeared.
