I think both have buyout clauses in their loans if you're wanting to keep them? Though personally I've never gotten much out of either player
This fills me with hope
A brilliant season and clearly a good decision to rest players at Leipzig!
Having managed Newcastle a lot, it isn't as fun as you'd think unless they've started being successful in your save?! Would love to see you try and take Tranmere all the way to the big time!
That is a mammoth amount of money for this level!
That is a lot of transfer business! Interested to see how that impacts you in the coming season. good luck
Good luck with this. Always like to see someone in the lower leagues, even moreso when it's the lower, lower, lower leagues!
I always seem to lose to my reserves and it gives me a shock everytime 😂. More to do with match practice than anything I'm sure. Good luck!
Future 2.0
So - I felt the need to split this save and don't know where I'll take it from here, meaning the updates may stop at least for now. After holidaying without getting a job until November 2021, here are my options moving forward and I w...

Kaiserslautern - Season 3 - May - 2020/21
To finish the season we played league winners Hertha - who battered us and European contenders Hannover, who stole a win but couldn't break into the top 4. 2 shoddy games which I think could have made my mind...
Kaiserslautern - Season 3 - March/April - 2020/21
WELL! March saw all-but-confirm our place in the Bundesliga next season as we picked up another big win against Wolfsburg, right before the horrible trio of Leverkusen (who beat us to keep the manager in a...
Kaiserslautern - Season 3 - February- 2020/21
Holy shit, we might do this.
Outstanding, if annoying that we didn't win our most winnable game - but that's just how I seem to roll on FM . That win at Gladbach is probably my best on this FM, in...
A bit of insight into the biggest challenge we have!
Kaiserslautern - Season 3 - January- 2020/21
So, January comes and goes with us not doing any business aside from 2 players leaving to lower the wage bill - literally nothing else to report on that front! We had a couple of friendlies where we lost to a 2...
Kaiserslautern - Season 3 - December - 2020/21
Jesus this game is getting harder to play although I am pleased to announce that WE WON A GAME... although it was our last before the winter break. Good to get a win, bad for keeping up momentum.
Frankfurt a...
Kaiserslautern - Season 3 - September, October and November - 2020/21
Now to start this section - 1 win in 11 games sounds awful, however, when you note that there were only 3 defeats and THEN look at the teams we played, it isn't half bad! Here are...
Kaiserslautern - Season 3 - Summer and August - 2020/21
So with a big season ahead I felt there was a lot of work to do to make this squad good enough... work that I'm still not sure our budgets can managed. Survival in this division is obviously th...
Stop 3 – January – The Heart of Winter
Happy New Year SUSIE On Tour competitors! Depending on where you are in the world, we're now heading into the depths of winter and so we won't be expecting it to be warm and so this challenge...
First time for everything
50 points for me again!
Info in the thread linked and my save is attached
Stop 2 - May and June 1st
Running Total: 5pts
So 4th place: +20pts
CL Winners: +25pts
Final Total: 50pts!
Cheers @Shedender - it was unlucky but given the number of games we're playing, I am glad to drop at least 1 competition! Injuries are an absolute killer and I wish I'd done more to bolster the squad during January.
Stop 2- March and April
Tha...
The schedule is intense at the start of this! My players are shattered
Stop 2 - January and February
Current Total: 10 pts
Transfers
Kind of realised we needed cover at left back and a decent level striker... realised after signing Dzeko that I could have gotten Werner for the same price, but nevermind! Blame my scouts....
Ha beating Spurs to win it is amazing! Seems like the DoF is pulling things together a little better too?
In terms of the bookings/fouls, there is the option to Stay on your feet/not dive into tackles in the tactics screen, often reducing the pressing intensity can have the same outcome too, as players aren't in the position to cause the opponents any tr...
That's good to know as at least it gives you an element of control and discussion - i.e. like when you need this striker! Looking forward to seeing what Adams does in the next window
Wow, that's a shame for your team really but could it load you up with a load of cash?!
Interesting that the DoF doesn't seem to pick up on the concerns and act! Have you had much success marking players as a target? Or have you not done that/is it ineffectual? Really got me interested, this.
I thought this too, it's a dilemma I have in all of my saves like this!
Always a slog in those lower leagues though - a tough call @fraktionmarback?
That is insane!!
That's a rough fixture set, playing the teams above you! Hopefully you can do some damage and steal a spot from one of them
Challenge 1 – Real Madrid – Woes (Los Blancos Christmas )
Yeah, also really intrigued by the DoF thing to see how it functions. Will keep a keen eye on this too!
Gossy, Gossy, Gossy!
Good move to the Prem, sure this is where your rep will start surging and getting those bigger jobs will become easier!
Eagle-eyed pair, spotting it before I posted! Cheers for reading
Kaiserslautern - Season 2 - Second Half - 2019/20
So, we've managed to wrap up another season and I am pleased to say that we JUST clinched another promotion... although again we missed out on the title!
As you'll see below, we tried really har...
Yeah I was too, especially since they've kept a big chunk of their Bundesliga squad
I may try and update you guys on this later, but I only have my iPad with me so it may prove tough for formatting!
Loving those blue glasses
Brilliant, so dominant too which I haven't seen a lot of so far this FM. Well done mate and for keeping on top of the form!
Kaiserslautern - Season 2 - January Transfers - 2019/20
A few short updates to keep this ticking over, before I inevitably forget to do it as a part of the end of the season. No results etc coming here, just some transfer news and a little addition.
A f...
Definitely, not until I'm in the Bundesliga at least!
Please to have it happen, but not the plan for now!
I'm yet to do an interview, so I'll keep that in mind. Found it frustrating in the past, however.
Flying as ever, excited to see where you take this next
That's a cracking run of form after that mad result. Good to see you've been able to turn it around so well!
Ah, I had a spell with HIFK in a previous journeyman save, decent little setup! Good luck
