Ludogorets played 5 friendly games winning 4 of them and also winning the friendly cup tophy after beating St.Pauli with 2:0 at the final.The team lost only to Liverpool in the first friendly game with 2:3 where the team actually played really well but after an own goal Ludogorets lost with 3:2.

Ludogorets allowed only 4 goals from the first 10 games in the league.The team also lost only once against Dunav Ruse with 3:0.Orlite also managed to win the derby game against CSKA-Sofia and got a draw with Levski 0:0 away from home.Jose Alvaro said that the team is playing much better than the last season and everybody can see that.The chairman commented the situation at th club and said that the focus of the team is in the Champions League where he is expecting good games but that doesn't mean the league is not important for the team from Razgrad.Ludogorets have 2 home games in the next weeks against Lokomotiv Plovdiv and Montana.

First place for Ludogorets after the first games in the league.The team is at the top with 21 points,in the 2nd place is Dunav Ruse with 20 points and the surprise of the season Montana at the 3rd with 19 points.Levski Sofia is at really really bad form and are at the 13th place with only 7 points from 10 games.The other big club CSKA-Sofia is doing fine this season as they are at the 4th place with 18 points.( at the same time last season CSKA were at the 8th place )

In the play-offs Ludogorets faced Ferencvárosi TC,and winning with 2:0 away from home was surely enough for a new try in the group stages.Ludogorets won the 2nd game also at home with 4:1 and qualified for the group stages for 4th time in their history and the group was really tough.The team from Razgrad was sure that playing against Juve ( again ) BVB and OL was going to be a hard task but Jose Alvaro said that he believes in the players and that there are no difference between the players of Juve or BVB and those of Ludogorets.

Those words that Jose Alvaro said were actually true.Everybody laughed at Jose Alvaro except for the fans of Ludogorets but then everybody was shutted when Ludogorets won with 2:0 against Juve at home yeah Juve got red card but that is not a fault of Ludogorets.The team also played with 10 man agaisnt OL but got the point after a great defending.Ludogorets also played as a really big club against BVB at the Signal Iduna Park against BVB and their true fans and again got a point after leading with 1:0 but conceded a goal in the 79th minute.Now Ludogorets have 3 more games and if they play like those 3 games Ludogorets will qualify for the next round for the first time in their history.

Ludogorets finished at the top with 79 points,second was Beroe with 72 points and third the surprise of the season Dunav Ruse with 61.Pirin Blagoevgrad got relegated with only 25 points from 32 games.CSKA-Sofia won the play-off for the european torunament place where they defeated Lokomotiv Plovdiv the 4th in the league with 2:0 and they will start their journey from the 3rd round of the UEFA Europa League.

Ludogorets won the Bulgarian Cup with a victory against Levski-Sofia with 2:0 at the final.The team played very good and we all saw the result in the end.Levski lost 3 of 4 games this season against Ludogorets.They managed to win once with 10 man Ludogorets at Ludogorets Arena.Jose Alvaro was very pleased with the result and said that "Orlite" will try to win the trophy again the next season and he wished to be against Levski again.

The real Ludogorets is back and from 10 games Ludogorets won 9 and finished 2:2 only with Lokomotiv Plovdiv away from home.Ludogorets once more showed that they can play beautiful football and win games.The team from Razgrad was focused in the Champions League at the beggining of the season but now you can see the real face of the team winning game after game.That also won a new contract for the manager of the club Jose Alvaro.

The team is at the top of the table after the 2nd half of the season 6 points clear at the top is a lot and that surely will make Ludogorets champions for the 6th time in a row.That doesn't mean Ludogorets will do better in the next year still the club must sign some class players because there are rumours that Wanderson wants to be sold to Saint-Ettiene.Still we'll have to wait to see what will Jose Alvaro do for the end of that season and for the start of the next one.

Ludogorets will play on the final of the Bulgarian Cup against Levski Sofia.The team eliminated Lokomotiv Plovdiv with 6:2 on aggregate and will fight for the trophy against the "Sinite".The chairman said that the cup is not important but still Ludogorets is a club that is playing for the trophies.Jose Alvaro was also asked which players will play on the final and he said that the team doesn't have "reserves"and every player is important.The game will be played at stadium"Lazur" in Burgas.

Really really bad 10 games from Ludogorets in the league after the first 10 games Ludogorets showed that they can play the big football whenever they want but like they lack motivation for the league games and the players only think for the big games from the Champions League where actually the team plays good but can't get still even a point.Ludogorets lost against Montana and against Levski with a man down again (red card).The team have 6 more games before the start of the second half of the season where the teams will be grouped in first 7 and second 7.In the first 7 the teams will fight for the league title and in the 2nd for relegation battle.

Ludogorets won the first 2 games for the Bulgarian Cup eliminating Litex Lovech and Montana from the Cup.The team will face the 2nd divison Septemvri Simitli in the Quarter-Final.Jose Alvaro showed respect to the 2nd divisioned team and said that Septemvri is a good team because they are here they are playing in the Quarter-Final which means that they can play good football so Ludogorets will be ready at 100% for the game.

Losing all the 6 games from the group stage was really bad but once more Ludogorets showed that they are not ready for the next step in the tournament.That means that the team needs improvements in the next years.That doesn't mean that the team played bad or the players are not capable to play in the Champions League it means that the team needs more expirience in those games and more discipline.The team got 4 red cards from 6 games which is not good for a team that plays in the Champions League.Jose Alvaro promised that the team will focus in the league now and that the next year Ludogorets will be stronger and will finish atleast on the 3rd place.

Ludogoerts sold only 2 first team players and signed with 5 new players.The team sold Natanael to WBA ( the best left back winger of the club for 3m euro ) and bought Sidcley from the former club of Natanael Clube Atlético Paranaense.Ludogorets also sold Quixada for only 300k to Roda JC and bought the target man Yannick Mamilone from Amiens for 1,6m euro. He will be a replacement for Quixada and will be coming as a sub in the first few games and if he shows that he deserve a place in the first team he can even replace Claudiu Keseru.The biggest transfer for Ludogorets was actually signing Jacek Goralski from Jaggelonia for 2m euro.The defensive midfielder will help a lot for the defensive part where Ludogorets struggle.Orlite got also Nedelcearu to help the defense and the young romanian defender will play with his friend from the national team Cosmin Moti and the center of the defense.

Jose Alvaro said that the new singing will help a lot and will improve the team game in many ways.The team have 6 more games before the 2nd half of the season so will have to wait to see what can Ludogorets show us in the next games with the new players.

Ludogorets started the season well with only 1 defeat against Pirin Blagoevgrad in the 2nd round.Overall the team looks good with the new manager and with the new style of playing.The team won the 2 derby games against Levski Sofia with 1:0 away and with 4:1 against CSKA-Sofia(Litex) at home.The team is at the 3rd place right now with 21 points 2nd is Dunav Ruse with 21 points and at the top is Beroe Stara Zagora with 26 points.Jose Alvaro said that Beroe will also lose points so he is sure that Ludogorets will win the league in the end.Next ten games actually will decide the first 7 teams and the second 7 teams that will play for the championship and for the relegation battle.

Ludogorets is with 0 points after the third game from the group stages.Jose Alvaro said that they will fight for a place in the Europa League and finishing 3rd in the group.The team played actually really good in the games but got red card in those 3 games and that failed the team.Jose Alvaro also said that he will talk with the players and the fans will see different Ludogorets as a discipline on the field.Ludogorets next game is against Juventus at home.

After the dissapointing last season Ludogorets decided to sign with Jose Alvaro as the new manager of the club.The objectives are actually like always 6th league title and a place in the european tournaments ( Champions League or Europa League).Jose Alvaro said that he will give his 100% for the club and will try to achieve everything possible with the team.

Ludogorets is the best club in Bulgaria right now as the team won the league every time since their promotion from the 2nd division in 2011.The team is really progresing not only in Bulgaria but also in the European tournaments ( Champions and Europa League ).The team nicnkame is "Green Eagles" or only "Eagles" .The team plays at their stadium Ludogorets Arena with capacity 10,000 right now but the chairman said that in the coming years the stadium will be reconstructed and will have 13,000 places and the team will play their group stage games at Razgrad and not in Sofia like the last years.The key players of the team are the captain Svetoslav Dyakov,Marcelinho and Wanderson.The team will be fighting for their 6th title this season in a row and for a place in the group stages of the UEFA Champions League.Ludogorets Razgrad played 2 times in the group stage of the Champions League finishing 4th and 3rd once,also the team played 2 times in the Europa League finsihing 1st in their first attempt at the group stages and got eliminated from Valencia in the Second Knockout Round..and the 2nd time got eliminated from FC Copenhagen again at the same round.

Ludogorets played 5 friendly games at their camp in Austria.The team won 4 of them and finished 2:2 with Jablonec.The team conceded only 4 goals from 5 games and scored 16 goals.Jose Alvaro said that the team is ready for the official games and that the team is also looking for new players.Still there are no rumours who will join at Ludogorets but the new manager give a hint that the team will look for a goalkeeper and for a central defender who will play with Cosmin Moti ( one of the "legends"of the club and also one of the tribunes of the stadium is called "tribune Moti" )

Ludogorets literally destroyed Mladost Podgorica after 5:0 away from home in the first leg and a victory with 4:0 at home with the reserves.The team showed that is ready for the big games in the Champions League and showed class that you can't see in the other Bulgarian teams.Jose Alvaro was actually prety calm before and after the game and said that Mladost is a good team even that they lost with 9-0 on aggregate.

Ludogorets will play with FK Astana in the next round of the Champions League.The coach of Astana the bulgarian Stanimir Stoilov said that the team is ready for Ludogorets and if they eliminate the Bulgarian side that will mean that the best club in the play-offs will be Astana.In the other hand Ludogorets showed respect and said that those 2 games will be more tactical games and less show football.Jose Alvaro also said that Ludogorets have their goals and that he is here to achieve them.
