To cut the story short, here is the tournament tree:
Now, Constantine had decided to retire on 3 July, Which he them pushed back to 1 Feb. I am giving him...

Not much other than that we won the champions league. The neutral venue for the final match against Chelsea was Camp Nou.

Post El Classico Update:
This time it was played at Camp Nou. The Results:
Perfection. For the first time, we managed to beat a team away in Champions League. In the mean while, Here is the league table:
The game confirms that we have qualified for Cham...
Youth Intake Update:
Second best player to come in, but he is my compatriot.
After having observed India for a decade, I have finally made up my mind that it is bad-coded in the game. No head coach has ever managed to stay at the helm for 10 years in the...
A quick question to the readers:How many of you have had a Defender as your costliest player(ie according to player value)?
Post winter window update:
It is not as if I have done any business though. I am Determined to keep finances positive and so cannot buy anyone big. Wanted to sell off unhappy players(to improve squad morale) but no one wanted to buy them even at 50% of th...
European Qualifiers Update
The second and last update:
And the table:
So we win and deny Serbians the ticket to mexico.
And here is a list of all nations who will fight it out at mexico:
Post El Classico update:
I already have two trophies of the season already. And all is pretty well, except for the two results.
Note that, however, there are very few dominating victories, and too many 1-0 results.
Despite having a good forward lineup, t...
European Qualifiers Update
As you see, the Organisers have been lousy enough to reuse their 40 year old logo.
Just an update about how I am going about with Belgium
So this. And the table:
The nations league in place means that only the winner goes th...
The season is over, and it was a good season:
Juventus hammered us at their home, but we replied better at our home.
Real was a better sight, 3-0 up from the first leg, but we still needed extra time and away goals rule(they scored in the injury time of...
Sankalan just completed the season in the year 2025 managing Barcelona in the LIGA BBVA in their FM Career (No Longer a) Lower League Dream
The penultimate update of the season:
Atletico was rather easy, but we went past FCP only on away goals.
Real Madrid thrashed us. And then we did them real damage.
Years Ago, the took our best player away from us in Luis Figo, paying us a record transfer...
Another update here:
League goes well except a draw against valencia. But the other competitions, well...
the board wants us to get past this round of Champions league, and it would be really tough to hold on to a single point lead in the second leg. In...
A good update:
League going good, but R Soc., well, a blast from the past.
I somehow managed through the Champions League.
Maybe, I will keep neymar and ter stegen happy after all.
Talking of neymay, I found the next Neymar:
This sent me looking for...
6 games later...
The league is going pretty well after I ditched the idea of building for the future. The Champions league, however, is not.
Bottom of the group. And, to not loose my two best players(Neymar and ter Stegen), I must win it.
Firmino was probably right. The first few matches:
Does not look that bad, but the facts are:
=>Majority of my team are in their thirties
=>In all the matches, I have been unable to give my youngsters a chance.
=>A couple of the first team playe...
Well, so I am here in Barcelona. But am I really?
Roberto Firmino came up to me and said that he wanted to leave for Germany. So I asked what it would take to keep him here. and he said
The team does not expect to go beyond Quarter Finals in the champion...
The main problem, I think is this:
Have loaded all players from top clubs of all six continents. At that time though, it showed player count=121,000, with Italian leagues loaded down to level 6.(now it is only liga bbva)
And yes, unless I reload the game...
Sankalan just completed the season in the year 2024 managing Celta in the LIGA BBVA in their FM Career (No Longer a) Lower League Dream
Now the story of the season. In the league, we were doing pretty well. Well into the second half, here were the notable observations:
=>Real Madrid would win the league.
=>Barcelona, Celta(our team) and valencia would fight it out for completing the...
And then a Liga Adelente side kicks me out of Copa del Rey
Barcelona is probably still far away, so to increase my profile in Spain, I rook up a job with Celta. They have a perfect 7 losses in seven games. Board wants me o achieve top half. I want to acieve two things:
->Prevent Real Madrid from winning(I am a...
Barcelona did fire their coach but the job was taken by brendan rodgers
Heartbreaking to say the least. Crash dump 6 attempts. I have now decided to end this drama and head straight to the final destination:Barcelona. My victory in Uefa champions league means that now I am one of the 7 head coaches with a world class reputati...
Crash dump again. This time while playing with costa rica in gold cup. guess that is the problem then, continental tournaments are broken
New Continent, new country, new club
Really need to build the team, and have only a couple of weeks to do that
Sankalan just completed the season in the year 2023 managing Liverpool in the Premier Division in their FM Career (No Longer a) Lower League Dream
The English season is over and we won. In fact, we won a treble!
And then the we became they:Clubs kept questioning as to why I loved to resign so many jobs, and I was tired. so I asked the board to upgrade training facilities(which they should have) and...

Having played FM for some time, I have seen people try to sometimes change the way youth of countries works. Also, I have seen that there is a certain file(be_a_newgen) which allows one to set future regens.
Now here is the plan. I want to create a progra...
OOPS! Sorry
Why does the heading show the 1960s Badge?
Bad News. I had with Iraq made it to the quarters of the AFC Asian Cup when Crash dump again. Don't know if I will continue...
Whole Tournament Update
My life is going hell. First of all what business does South korea have to Host a WAFF Championship. Secondly why does a worst-ranked-in-drawn-group team want to win the tournament?
We quickly left with a 3-0 defeat against Qatar...
The inevitable has happened. Got Fired...
Anyway, to stay in the midst of things, I took up Iraq, who will be playing in the WAFF Championship and are favourites
Sorry for not updating on the world cup any more. France won it, but.
Our matches:
Worst league performance for a team led by Baba till date. The table:
Perhaps this time round, Baba will have to settle without a league win.
On the positives, we qualifi...
Second Round update
We did go through and the only other interesting result here is probably Holland leaving against Mexico. More Interestingly though, countries like Spain, Brazil, England are missing. So where are they?
Spainecond in EU Qual G5 behind...
Group Stage Update
Perhaps my biggest tournament till date. FA wants R16. But here is the group stage:
Interesting results there, we went through on goal difference. The top ranked team in our group, Russia, finished last
New Country, New Club
End of season update:
Not the best, after all, but I still manage to pick 2 points more from the last 17 gamesthan what had been picked of the first 17.
Interestingly, Bayern got behind even Schalke. Anyhow, now I have ticked off .
Sankalan just completed the season in the year 2022 managing Stuttgart in the First Division in their FM Career (No Longer a) Lower League Dream
6 more games gone, coming to the business end now.
Perfection, I would say. In the mean time I am also giving some undeserved game time to an Indian AMR to boost my world cup hopes.
Bayern are below us again and I hope it stays that way for some time, a...
