We've definitely started off an improvement for Borneo FC this month and let's not forget that it's the only start of what is yet to happen. We started off our managerial career with a 3-1 win in the Piala Indonesia Cup 3rd round leg 1. Next up was 2nd place Persiba at home which was only a narrow 2-1 loss which is pretty impressive and then we continued the good form when we advanced to the Indonesia Cup 3rd round with a 2-1 win in the 2nd leg at home. We then played top of the table Persija AWAY from home and we only lost 1-0 which is fantastic and shows with a few good signings, we can win this league possibly. PS Tira was the next team we played and we won 3-2 in an exciting goal-thrilling match. The following match against Persebaya was very frustrating after the full-time whistle as we got a goal to make it 1-0 and then followed it with a 2nd goal in the 81st minute which seemed to seal the match only for them to pull one back in the 84th minute. In the last part of the match where we were expecting the final whistle any second, they get another goal JUST SECONDS (approximately 2) before the full-time whistle which cost us 2 important points which would've put us 2 points outside relegation, not 4. To end off the month we got a nice 1-0 win to put us in a strong position for the 2nd leg of the Piala Indonesia Cup 3rd round.

My target for next month is to make my way out of the relegation and we're only 4 points off 14th place so it is very possible, but I'm pleased with the progression in our performances and the only matches we lost we're to the top 2 teams in the league right now which we're very close matches.


SEPTEMBER 2018
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/UiFXmL4mAfo0XbHfqieSPqTHhRmUWWMzTjUhH4XC.jpg
To continue our league campaign, we play Bhayangkara FC where we win a nice 1-0 away from home. Following that match, we played an absolute cracker of a match against PSIM which is undoubtedly one of the craziest matches I've played on FM in my life!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/tCQcsujt6TvNXynsH0al71CVXL5zEoBm6GzPZU9T.jpg
Just looking at the review is enough to blow away your mind. We were up 1-0 after the first leg and within 17 minutes we conceded a goal which did not put ourselves in a comfortable position. To make things extremely uncomfortable, we end up getting a red card in the 48th minute, but somehow we manage to keep ourselves in the game as we head in the extra time. We started off very badly in extra time as they get a goal early on, but then OUT OF NOWHERE we score a goal and now all we have to do is extreme park the bus with 10 men and we'll go through on away goals. Anyways, imagine if we win it after this scary match. With our players tired from the extra time against PSIM, we now play Barito who were doing solid in the table and we managed to gain a 2-0 lead only for their player to score a goal in the 80th minute. From there we tried to hold onto the game, but in typical fashion recently, we choke the game as they score a stoppage time goal to get a draw and we miss out on 2 very important points. To end off our month, we have games against Persiba and PSMS where the first one ends in a 3-1 win to put ourselves in a commanding position for the 2nd leg. In our last game of the month, we play PSMS who are luring around the relegation zone, but although they're ranked higher than us in the league, we SMASH them 6-2 in a goalfest where Erliandy gets a hat-trick and scores for the 3rd game in a row while Alves and Bonai make the scoresheet.

After a good month where we should've got a few more points if we weren't so unlucky, we could already be out of the relegation zone, but it's looking increasingly likely we'll make it to safety and maybe even make top 10!

BOARD CONFIDENCE
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/olFeCjDvxy4vQ4NLa0KzpOCn5YyK5VImEkY1M2Ux.jpg
I've managed to please the board which is no surprise and you can see that we've now cemented our place in history.
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/slidkxAW1JprAUyggWgLZlGSxpCsukTH0XQVVqwe.jpg
We've really managed to please the board as we made history for New England Revolution by winning the MLS hence why confidence is so high for us.

BEST XI
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/fwbSMGyqPM1U1bCm18ny5xwM1qm7nThzreFHImgI.jpg
A very weird formation chosen by the MLS, but Fagundez, Agudelo and Rowe all make the team of the year which showcases our attacking talent.

DEFENDER & GOALKEEPER OF THE YEAR
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/57DSNTxOX63hVzT1OfFusR64FRkZ7UskFsIdZLkx.jpg
Tremoulinas absolutely stole the spotlight as he smashes everybody else to win defender of the year which shows that getting him on a free transfer was a very inspired move.
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Tbih1nx4PFsGdH4RSj3ZuIuM45DWhrBQrOXGGB4M.jpg
Unfortunately, Diogo Costa could not win goalkeeper of the year, but he's had a very good year and only missed out to Kansas City's goalkeeper who guided them to a Supporters' Shield Win.

MLS INDIVIDUAL FAIR PLAY AWARD
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/ZXiWi8Jl8ZzYaam4S0dhaJfgKDlVrlcACmJfy6u3.jpg
It is Parks who takes out the fair play award as he got 0 yellow or red cards while still managing to score plenty of goals from midfield and impress in general.

COACH OF THE YEAR
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/OkO0SLABhbEPBLRocgJbgYAOR69USqr1eOSaf7rJ.jpg
WE WIN MANAGER OF THE YEAR! Who else could've won it? We definitely weren't favourites to win the MLS and we took it out quite easily in a fantastic season.

SQUAD DYNAMICS
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Gd7SKSNgNlYFyMymwmePOsKCWzJxDVvwtYbKqjIh.jpg
We've maintained a very good dressing room atmosphere and managerial confidence as we never had problems with the dynamics of our squad throughout the year.

HISTORY

After coming 5-times runner-up in this century, we've managed to win it 6th time lucky.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/3iDpX7bpwVAwCyBtl8nkvVnvFJKN0SsZvBsrRYF9.jpg
Agudelo takes out the fans' player of the year as he has been the most important player and we really did miss his absence when he got injured, hence why it was our worst month.

MLS CUP FINAL



THE TEAM
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/QNOxO348bFoBsOA5BocEDM5qCGQukik9HjZLZSpT.jpg
Going into the biggest match in New England Revolution's history, this is the team we have chosen. Our trustworthy goalie Diogo Costa is obviously going to be starting with ex-Premier League players Mancienne and Huth our centre-backs with the phenomenal Tremoulinas who is returning and the consistent Farrell making up the full-backs. We've got our best midfield partnership in Machado and Parks as Caldwell will be unable to make the squad as he is injured. We've got our best attack today as the fantastic Fagundez returns to play alongside the player of the year, Agudelo. In attacking midfield, we've got the hard-working Rowe who has been a major key in making our attack work while we've got the legendary Berbatov up top who hopefully can score another penalty!

HALF TIME:
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/ueQJGiOlOdmcGybXhhfh4B1FPsdrakdLcUAzpLQc.jpg
We've played the first half of this important match and we're still in the game as it's 0-0 at half-time, but let's be honest, Seattle has been dominating the game at our home grounds as they nearly even scored a clear-cut chance while we only had 1 close chance from a set-piece that sailed over the crossbar.

FULL TIME:

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FAGUNDEZ PUTS US UP 1-0 IN THE FINAL WOOHOO! It's a nice goal courtesy of Dimitar Berbatov's assist. Could this be the winning goal?
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/qph7eyhWKYSFwl8z4n8wV03LgRV5R5WlfO9qf79O.jpg
YES IT IS THE WINNING GOAL! We win 1-0 in a game that was not our best, but we made it through and got the important win.

MLS PLAYOFF FINAL LEG 1:
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/kiAdPZPtD1a7dkhVK7DfWSANu0N0y8SzECsM9PMg.jpg
We started off the MLS Playoff Final against Toronto, who pretty much has been our Achilles heel for most of the season, but surprisingly we managed to grab a 2-0 win away from home. We got off to a lucky start as one of their players conceded an own goal just before half-time which put us in a good 1-0 position. We then cemented a good aggregate lead as Rowe got a goal on the hour mark to make it 2-0 which meant we've also got two away goals to help for the final leg at home.

MLS PLAYOFF FINAL LEG 2:
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Ho5UyfzOfbNQbKUV49qlS6pPWl5A5dmUa4quGcuz.jpg
In the 2nd leg, we were marred by two suspensions to the most outstanding players recently, Fagundez and Tremoulinas. This inevitably hurt us in the 2nd leg, but as we got to a 1-0 lead, everything seemed safe until they got a goal to make it 3-1 on aggregate. Then in the 89th minute they scored a goal to not only win the 2nd leg but put themselves 1 goal behind us on aggregate and who knows, they could've scored in stoppage time. Since we won 3-2 on aggregrate against the Canadian side, that means we put ourselves in the MLS Cup final which is going to be our last match.

INJURIES
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Bp6qrJfqMjfn2SzCsKuTqMO8XzbVxNzjnqfPY9gV.jpgUnfortunately, we suffer an injury to Tahith Chong as he hurts his ankle which pretty much rules him out for the rest of the season as we only have 1 game left which meant Manchester United recalled him.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/NEak3vxKt9YWl9iNJgLXUsNy6pUlzt5Cgd2UVwBb.jpgWe also suffer an injury to Caldwell, so pretty much we don't have any backup midfielders that are good for the final so we've got to hope no one gets injured in the MLS Cup final.

MLS SEMI-FINAL PLAYOFF LEG 1
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/wbqk8f3RAdDtKaQHfakZMoXIE8qSiYEaOzP9DgMt.jpg
We don't start off good as we not only miss out on a potential extra 5 points from beating New York Red Bulls, but we also go behind on aggregate as they got a stoppage-time goal to make it 2-1 in the first leg leaving us in a shaky position going into the 2nd leg.

OCTOBER 2018
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/kLrn7AyEk9DB0fAkBidbBnXGfFYUEG5jGzMrAT0n.jpg
This was our first month in a while where we experienced a drop in form but we still maintained some good performances throughout the month. It started off with a disappointing 1-1 draw where Berbatov scored a penalty to save us from further disappointment. We then played the strong Atlanta United in which we experienced a 2-0, but we bounced back with a 4-0 win over Orlando City in a great game for Agudelo and Fagundez. After that, we played an atrocious game against Real Salt Lake which ended in a horrible 2-0 loss but we managed to continue our good form when it comes to beating Montreal Impact as we recorded a 2-1 win

SQUAD REVIEW
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/jwtYL1xRz74SddkHghqjmkESx3rXNsCUihPcRvZN.jpg
Diogo Costa continues his good form in goal as he bids to claim the goalkeeper of the year award. In defence, Tremoulinas is amazing as usual while Anibaba has played a few good games in Farrell's absence while Huth and Mancienne continue to play unimpressive and unlike a player who was in the Premier League a few years back. This month, Machado has been even greater but Keaton Parks is starting to get tired and could do with a rest soon. Rowe and Agudelo are playing well but not as great as last month while Fagundez is starting to take over the team with impressive performances while Berbatov is starting to get a few more goals.

Our second last month sees us continue our unbeaten run which got extended to 13 games. We started the month off against Portland Timbers in which Agudelo and Fagundez get the goals. Our unbeaten streak nearly against LAFC, but we got saved by another Dimitar Berbatov penalty. Our first rival win of the season comes against Chicago Fire, whom we smash 3-0, but it comes with an expense as we lose to the strong Toronto FC in a 2-1 loss.

SQUAD REVIEW
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/bkpNfHwqCAji4xRzcVz3b4c357sh0Xb6oE7r9ZLc.jpg
This month we got clean sheets in all our games hence why in the last 5 games Diogo Costa is on a 7.06 rating. In defence, there is nothing special except for Tremoulinas who's been absolutely phenomenal as he has got a 7.32 rating in the last 5 games which is much higher than his general average rating of 7.05. It hasn't been exactly a great month for our midfielders as they all have ratings below 7 in their last 5 games. In attack, Fagundez has been on fire with a 7.66 rating in the last 5 games. While Chong, Agudelo and Rowe are all having solid games recently, the aging Berbatov has been atrocious with a 6.66 rating in the last 5 games.

Quite an impressive month here, starting off with a solid 1-0 win away from home against Orlando City which was followed by a scaring 2-1 win over Philadelphia we're they got a goal to get back in the game at 2-1. We then play DC United and you can only guess what happened against one of our rivals... ANOTHER DRAW!!! It was 1-0 to us thanks to a Chong goal but then they pulled one back late in the game. To end off the month nicely, we record a 3-1 win against Philadelphia who we've played for the third time this season.

SQUAD REVIEW
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/nJZalMgKrCFcJPjnkFnPPZkngQQ8nvBVsxOPjLSQ.jpg
Goalie and defence haven't been too great but Tremoulinas is really proving his quality when it comes to attacking as he's had a handful involvement in goals while in midfield we got Machado holding the defence in CDM and Parks really creating our chances and even scoring quite a few! In attack, Chong is starting to pick up some form while Agudelo is Agudelo and Rowe is quite good but Fagundez hasn't been the greatest but he's picking up form now.

In terms of the MLS All-Stars game, it went extremely above my expectations. Considering the fact we were playing a Premier League team with MLS players, I was expecting to lose, especially considering the fact that I wasn't even playing a natural LB and CB, but to win 4-0 is an amazing feat.

Now we sit in a dominating position for the Eastern Conference so this will definitely help us with the points. In terms of stats, we aren't really making the top 3 of anything except for yellow cards which Machado is leading in, but he has been phenomenal this season in helping the defence.

We're finally starting to improve as we've only experienced 1 loss in the last 10 matches. Although that seems like an impressive feat, you've got to take in the fact that half of the matches have been draws, unfortunately. This month, we start off with a 4-2 win against Seattle which is followed by a 0-0 draw against LA Galaxy. To end off the month, we play 2 away games, one of them versus Minnesota whom we beat 3-1 and the other being a 0-0 draw with New York Red Bulls where draws seem to be a common occurrence against rivals and strong teams.

SQUAD REVIEW

A big improvement as quite a few more players are in the green now in terms of rating, but it would be nice if we could keep clean sheets in games where we score goals.

I don't even know where to start as we had an absolute garbage month, although there is a pretty good explanation for it. Starting off the month against rivals New York Red Bulls, where Thierry Henry played a few years ago, we lost 2-1. If I'm honest, we were horrible in that game and got outplayed but a stoppage-time goal made the game look tight judging by the scoreline. We then had the easiest match of the month in the US Open Cup 3rd round against minors Seacoast United Phantoms which was our only win of the month when we recorded a 2-0 win at home. To continue our bad away form, we drew against rivals Chicago Fire 1-1 which turned out to be the same scoreline at San Jose, also away from home. As much as I would've loved a cup run, it ended pretty early as we fell to a 3-1 defeat against New York City in the 4th round of the US Open Cup. To end off our poor month, we draw AGAIN against another one of our rivals, DC United in a goalless match.

Here is the reason why our form has majorly dropped off, our star player Agudelo suffered an injury that pretty much ruled him out for the month as he suffered as sports hernia, this is very detrimental to our progress.

In already May, we start off the month with our first away win of the season against Montreal Impact which I am happy with and continue that form into our 2-0 win over Toronto where Berbatov gets a double. What followed that was an unspectacular match against Columbus Crew who we drew with away from home as we lose 1-0. We bounce back with an encouraging 4-1 win versus Vancouver as Berbatov gets a hat-trick of penalties. We finish off the month with a well-fought 1-1 draw against Atlanta United who is the toughest team in my opinion that's in the MLS.

Our new goalie Diogo Costa hasn't done anything de Gea esque, but at the moment he's consistently decent and we haven't had any problems in our goalkeeping area. When it comes to defence, our full backs once again stand out at Tremoulinas and Farrell are having great months while our centre-backs aren't doing terribly bad. Machado and Parks are starting to look like our first choices in midfield as the consistently supply quality chances for our forwards. In attack, once again, Agudelo is the stand-out player, but at least half of Berbatov's goal supply has been from penalties. In terms of how Fagundez and Rowe play, it generally depends on how the team is doing, if the team

I'll be starting off unemployed with no coaching badges and a playing experience of a Sunday League footballer. There are no rules on this save but one goal I do have is to become the best manager of all time and take the number 1 spot.

Born in Perth, Australia on the 19th August 1997, Matt Eskins has decided to start his managerial career at the young age of 20. An attacking minded manager, his dream job is to become the manager of Manchester United. Currently unemployed, one day he'd also like to take the hands of his home club Perth Glory and he'd also like to manage Dinamo Zagreb as his family has a Croatian origin.

We started off the month with two impressive home wins. We play Montreal Impact where Berbatov scores another penalty and Fagundez plays well. Next up is the match of the month as we defeat Dallas 4-1 as Agudelo gets ANOTHER 2 goals and Keaton Parks, our loanee, starts to impress with 2 goals. We continue our winless away form as we lose a 1-0 lead in a 1-1 draw against Columbus Crew in Agudelo's 6th goal this season. We end of the month nicely with a 2-0 win as Keaton Parks gets another goal which is very good and Berbatov may be back to form as he adds another to his tally. We got a long month ahead as we have Montreal Impact AGAIN at the start of the month AGAIN (typical FM scheduling), then Toronto which should prove to be difficult then Columbus Crew AGAIN followed by Vancouver and then 2nd place Atlanta United.

SQUAD REVIEW
https://i.imgur.com/aTFviG5.jpg
Matt Turner had a decent month as he claimed 2 clean sheets but I FINALLY managed to bring in a quality goalie near deadline day. As you can see in the photo above, we got Diogo Costa (not related to Diego) on loan from FC Porto who is 1 whole star higher than Turner in quality and I'm very excited to have him on board now as well as Parks. Farrell continues his good form as Mancienne and Delamea got better this month while Tremoulinas adds another assist to his statistics this season. Moving onto midfield which is held by the consistently good Machado, we got the Pogba-esque centre-mid in Parks who has got 3 goals and 1 assist in 5 games. Agudelo continues to show his quality as Fagundez is also impressing while Rowe is still doing well. We're limited up top with only Berbatov and Bunbury, but Agudelo can also play there if needed. Berbatov looks like he's on the verge of getting around one goal every two games as he has done this month and 4 goals in 6 games for a strikers isn't that bad.

We start off the MLS with a 1-1 draw away against Philadelphia where Berbatov gets a debut goal. In our 2nd game Agudelo starts to shine as Berbatov seals the winning penalty. Next is an impressive game against New York City as we smash them 4-1 at home. We then end off the month with a disappointing 2-1 loss to Houston where Agudelo gets 3 goals in 3 games in a row.

SQUAD REVIEW
https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/NlTIO6vep4kmv3Y9atwdAw6U6FUbW0pqi32InsrB.jpg
Matt Turner hasn't done anything special in goal but there really is nothing to expect of him considering he isn't that good. Farrell has been the only one who's playing good in our back 4 as Delamea and Mancienne have been below par. I would've expected more from Tremoulinas so far but there is plenty of time for him to show his quality and he's already got an assist to his name. Machado has been an important player in CDM and the only game we've lost has been without him in our side while Caldwell hasn't done anything special in CM. Now to our star-studded attack, Agudelo has been our best performing player as he has got 3 goals and 2 assists while Rowe and Fagundez have been doing well. Berbatov up top did well at the start but is dropping off but hopefully, with some tweaking, he can get to top class form.
